$$What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 22, 7:00 PM CDT, 1 hour 33 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 22, 7:00 PM CDT, 1 hour 33 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jackson MS 700 PM CDT Sun Apr 22 2018 .UPDATE... Updated for 00Z aviation discussion && .AVIATION... 00Z TAF discussion: While deeper moisture and rain chances will be on the decrease early this evening, expect weak lift and residual boundary layer moisture to cause problems with lowering of ceilings (IFR/LIFR) late tonight into morning, and perhaps reduced visibility due to fog/drizzle during the early morning. Expect ceilings to lift to MVFR category from late morning into Monday afternoon, with VFR ceilings become possible, especially in the HBG/PIB area. /EC/ && .DISCUSSION... Through Monday: Even as more respectable instability develops over the southeast/east portion of the forecast area thanks to breaks in the clouds south of a northward advancing warm front, drier column air (as noted in multichannel GOES-16 imagery and satellite derived TPW) is quickly advancing into the area this afternoon. This has been helping to prevent more vigorous convection over our forecast area. Still, 200-400 m2/s2 effective SRH exists over this area, and we will have to monitor closely for rotation even in low-topped convection over the next few hours. The decreasing potential for any localized flooding will be wrapping up by that time as well, and we'll likely be able to pull these hazards from the HWO early in the evening. The cold front currently remains back near the Mississippi River, with dewpoints in the 50s residing across AR and LA. It will push eastward across the area this evening, but as the mid/upper low slowly pivots across the Midsouth overnight and cyclonic low level convergence persists, low clouds will increase and lower again overnight and continue across much of the area well into the day tomorrow. Wrap-around isolated to scattered light showers will also accompany the occluding low during the daytime Monday. Though we won't see a significant dip in temperatures behind the front, the lingering clouds and showers will help hold daytime high temps down Monday. /DL/ Monday night through next weekend: Models are now thankfully coming into a little better agreement in the long term period. It still is looking like this period will be somewhat unsettled with a parade of disturbances, albeit relatively weak ones, pushing across the Lower MS Valley. Conditions for Monday night and Tuesday will be best along and west of the MS River where skies should be partly cloudy at worst. Elsewhere clouds will linger with maybe even some nuisance sprinkles or showers in northeastern zones. Temperatures will continue to trend a little cooler than average. Conditions should clear out for Tuesday night through at least the first half of Wednesday, before clouds begin encroaching from the west yet again as another disturbance approaches from the northwest. This system should be lacking of high moisture and much instability, but does look like it will have enough lift and deep saturation to produce a good chance of rain in most areas between late Wednesday afternoon through Thursday morning. Unfortunately, there still remains more-than-desired uncertainty for the system coming on the heels of the one for mid week. Most likely conditions will dry out for late Thursday, but then clouds and some rain chances will enter back into the picture by Friday and maybe even into Saturday. Some model solutions do suggest the weather-maker for Friday/Saturday may not materialize so rain chances kept low for now and fingers crossed perhaps next weekend may turn out to be a rare rain-free one. /BB/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
