$$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 Nov 12, 6:53 AM CST, 1 hour 40 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Nov 12, 6:53 AM CST, 1 hour 40 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jackson MS 653 AM CST Mon Nov 12 2018 .UPDATE... Updated for 12Z aviation discussion && .AVIATION... 12Z TAF discussion: Widespread IFR/LIFR conditions can be expected today through tonight in association with RA/TSRA and low ceilings/vsby. Northerly surface wind will pick up on the back side of the passing system and could become gusty late this afternoon and tonight. /EC/ && .DISCUSSION... Today and Tonight: With moist southwesterly flow over a cooler surface air mass in our region, fairly widespread and steady rain will continue across our forecast area this morning and into today. POPs have been kept in the 90-100 percent range through around lunch time. The greatest precip totals will be driven by frontogenetical forcing with a northward-lifting elevated warm front. A little bit of elevated instability will also allow for isolated heavier showers or thunderstorms to produce locally higher rainfall rates. Therefore we have a Limited risk for flash flooding across most of the area today. Apart from the flash flooding threat, ponding of water on roadways will be a threat, so be careful on the morning commute and while driving around today. The chances for rain won't start to decrease until later tonight as drier mid- level air moves overhead and isentropic lift weakens. A cold front pushing west to east through our region this afternoon and evening will usher in steadily decreasing temperatures into tomorrow morning. Temperatures in the Delta may briefly hit the freezing mark by sunrise, but cloud cover and strong north winds mean frost is not expected. Tuesday morning will be a cold morning out at the bus stop, as north winds of 10 to 20 mph and these cold temperatures will result in wind chills in the lower 30s as far south as the Natchez Trace corridor, and in the mid to low 20s through the Delta. /NF/ Tuesday through Sunday: Look for the chilly weather to continue through the end of the work week as an upper-level trough deepens and closes off over the ArkLaTex to our west on Tuesday. The trend toward this slower and closed off low pressure system means less of a threat for hard freeze conditions to local agricultural interests, but it also means the cool air will linger for a longer time across our region as reinforcing cold air advection will continue through Thursday. With model guidance trending toward this colder upper-low type of a system, it is also worth mentioning that the chances for some type of wintry precipitation occurring are slightly higher. Wrap around moisture being lifted through the mid-level portions of the system could lead to light precipitation spreading southeast to northwest early Wednesday morning through Wednesday evening. Analyzing forecast soundings, it currently looks like a lack of upper-level moisture combined with warmer mid-level temperatures should keep the precip type as mostly light rain or drizzle where low-level dryness can be overcome. Closer to the core of the upper-low however, that light rain could fall into a surface air mass with temperatures near or just below freezing. Therefore some locations have a mention of light rain of light freezing rain during those periods. Possibly in the Delta, temperatures may be cold enough for a few flurries to mix in, however deep layer moisture looks to be lacking so "snow" is really not anticipated at this time. We will definitely monitor this system's evolution should any worsening conditions be a concern. Apart from precipitation concerns, more widespread conditions near freezing on Wednesday morning will lead to a an Elevated freezing risk for southeast Arkansas, far northeast Louisiana, and northern portions of Mississippi. Wind chills that morning will range from upper teens in the Delta to upper 20s through the Pine Belt. Cold temperatures (although lighter winds) will remain in place for Thursday morning. A slight warming trend in highs and lows will commence through the weekend, with values closer to normal for those days. /NF/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
