TWWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm 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 severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 20, 2:51 PM CDT, 2 hours 20 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 20, 2:51 PM CDT, 2 hours 20 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jackson MS 251 PM CDT Mon Aug 20 2018 .DISCUSSION... Tonight: Mid level cold core low spinning about over northern MO at the moment with its attendant cold front moving across northwest AR. High theta-e air continues to pool in advance of this boundary over eastern AR where surface dewpoints remain in the mid to upper 70s. While vertical totals are only in the mid 20s, MLCAPEs are running from 3000-3500 J/kg. Convective line is expected to initiate over eastern AR in the next few hours as the boundary plows into this airmass. Thunderstorms look to become quite robust as they approach the MS river around sunset as deep layer shear increases from around 20 to near 40 knots. Robust storms will move across northwest portions during the evening eventually bisecting the forecast area by midnight. Thereafter, the line will diminish with isolated storms continuing to impact the area overnight. Tuesday: The front will continue to traverse southeast portions of the area Tuesday with scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms developing in advance, especially with heating during the afternoon. To the northwest behind the front, drier air will continue to spread into the area as dewpoints fall into the 60s./26/ Tomorrow night through Monday... The long term forecast period will be relatively quiet as well defined ridging dominates the weather pattern over the southern states. The cold front responsible for today's storms is progged to be south of the area by tomorrow tonight with drier air filtering in behind it. Surface dewpoints are expected to drop into the 60s with PWATs falling to near 1". The lower dewpoints combined with clear skies and calm winds will result in decent radiational cooling potential during late week with overnight lows dropping into the mid to low 60s. Daytime highs will start off in the low 90s and gradually warm into the weekend with highs topping out in the mid 90s as the ridge becomes centered overhead. Dry northwest flow will keep the forecast dry through the rest of the week before isolated to scattered diurnally driven convection returns by the weekend. /TW/ && .AVIATION... 18Z TAF discussion: Isolated showers and thunderstorms will be the rule across the area for the remainder of the afternoon with mostly VFR conditions. Winds from the southwest at 10 to 15 knots and gusty will be seen at JAN, HKS, GLH and GWO in advance of a cold front presently moving across AR. As the front approaches the MS river by late afternoon, a line a thunderstorms is expected to develop and impact the GLH and GWO areas between 21/00Z and 21/03Z. The line will continue moving east and impact the JAN and HKS areas between 21/03Z and 21/05Z. The convective line looks to diminish, thereafter, but isolated storms will continue around the remaining TAF sites through the end of the period. Where storms occur, a lowering of ceilings and visibilities to MVFR can be expected./26/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
