Area forecast discussion, Jun 1, 6:33 PM CDT, 6 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Memphis TN 633 PM CDT Thu Jun 1 2017 .UPDATE... Updated for the 00Z Aviation Discussion && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 237 PM CDT Thu Jun 1 2017/ DISCUSSION... Currently a few strong thunderstorms were slowly drifting west from near West Memphis to Forrest City Arkansas with nickel size hail being reported in South Memphis and 46 kts at the West Memphis airport. Other convection on radar...which has been more persistent...was slowly advancing north from the ARKLAMISS. Short term model guidance shows this activity weakening over the next few hours as it moves into the far southwestern Delta counties...leaving the remainder of the region with the isolated pop-up variety through sunset. Current temperatures were in the low to mid 80s with light east through south winds. Tonight through Monday...current activity will diminish tonight with heating...leaving for partly to mostly cloudy skies over the region. Lows will be similar to this morning. For tomorrow and Saturday have kept rain chances at or below 50 percent through the period. Weak ridging aloft depicted by the models will provide for less storm coverage...until Sunday when the upper flow strengthens from the Northwest and deeper moisture pools ahead of an approaching cold front. Isolated strong storms will be possible during the peak heating hours each day...with the potential for some severe weather late Sunday into Monday. Confidence of this occurring is low at this time...as shear will be marginal. Bumped high temperatures up a degree or two through the period...with skies generally partly sunny and winds light. Tuesday through next Thursday...surface high pressure will build south from the Midwest and persist through this period. Dewpoints will fall into the 50s...with north to northeast winds providing for very comfortable temperature's and humidity. A second reinforcing front will slide across the lower Ohio Valley late Thursday...but the lack of moisture should keep the Midsouth dry. JAB && .AVIATION... 00Z TAF cycle VFR conditions should prevail for most of the forecast period. Scattered thunderstorms were mainly over northern sections of the forecast area at this time and they should die out over the next couple of hours. More scattered thunderstorms may develop Friday afternoon. Winds will be mainly from the south at 5 to 10 knots for much of the forecast period. ARS && .MEG WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... AR...None. MO...None. MS...None. TN...None. &&
