PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 400 AM CST Mon Feb 26 2018/

Two more days of February, one of the wettest Februaries on
record, and it looks like we are facing another heavy rain event.
A few light showers may linger this morning in Northeast
Mississippi, but most of the Midsouth will be dry with clearing
skies. Temperatures will rebound this afternoon. Highs should
climb into the low to middle 60s. Clear conditions will continue
overnight. Lows will be seasonable...in the middle 30s to low 40s.
Over the next 48 hours a trough will deepen over the Western US
resulting in strong Southwest flow across the Southern Plains and
middle to lower Mississippi River Valley. Weak southerly surface
winds will return to the Midsouth Tuesday ushering Gulf Moisture
back across the region. Dew points will creep back into the low
60s and clouds will return to the region. Late Tuesday into early
Wednesday a warm front will lift North across the area. A surface
low will track from West Oklahoma into North Missouri Wednesday.
Nearly all of the Midsouth will be in the warm sector of this
storm system for an extended period of time. Multiple rounds of
thunderstorms are expected to track from southern Arkansas across
North Mississippi Tuesday night Wednesday, Wednesday night and
much of the day Thursday. Widespread rainfall totals over three
inches are expected with an axis approaching 5 inches along and
just South of the Mississippi/Tennessee state line West into East
central Arkansas. Localized rainfall totals approaching 10 inches
are not out of the question. As a result, widespread flooding is
expected. A Flood watch will likely be required today or this
evening. There is also a risk for strong to severe thunderstorms
Wednesday...mainly in Northwest Mississippi and East central
Arkansas. The primary threat from any thunderstorms would be
damaging wind. Trees may be easily toppled due to saturated soils.
They could also be a bit top-heavy due to early blooms. Even 40
mph winds can bring trees down under these conditions.
However...it looks almost certain that flooding will be our main
weather story midweek. Rivers are already swollen and area soils
saturated, so flooding could become a problem with only an inch or
two of rainfall. Rain should taper off Thursday...but floodwater
may take quite a while to recede and Rivers/creeks and streams
will likely continue to rise. River flooding will certainly
continue through the weekend or longer.

Friday looks cooler and dry. The weekend also looks dry with
rebounding temperatures. Morning lows should be in the middle 30s
to middle 40s with highs in the low to middle 60s. Unfortunately
it looks like the beginning of next week looks wet again.
