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 Memphis, TN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 5, 9:57 AM CDT, 1 hour 44 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 5, 9:57 AM CDT, 1 hour 44 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Memphis TN
957 AM CDT Thu Apr 5 2018

.DISCUSSION...

Skies are partly cloudy across the forecast area this morning with
temperatures in the 40s to lower 50s. Another pleasant afternoon
is in store across the region as temperatures warm into the 60s.
Will update forecast to remove some morning wording.

ARS

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 331 AM CDT Thu Apr 5 2018/

Freezing temperatures across portions of the region this
hour...with clear to mostly clear skies and calm or light winds.
Freeze and frost conditions will continue until mid morning.

For today and tonight...after a cold start temperatures will
modify nicely this afternoon...with most highs in the 60s. Surface
high pressure in eastern Kentucky will slide off the Mid-Atlantic
Coast by this evening...bringing light southerly winds and mostly
sunny skies to the area. Thicker cloud cover will move into the
Midsouth tonight with a few light showers erupting as a warm
front starts to materialize in the Red River Valley and the
ARKLATEX. Lows tonight will generally be in the 40s.

Friday and Saturday...active period as models show the
aforementioned warm front intersecting a descending cold front
with a series of surface waves riding along the boundary.
Precipitation is expected to increase in coverage and intensity on
Friday...with a few embedded T-storms in the late afternoon and
evening. Some of these storms could be strong as the boundary
sinks south across east-central Arkansas and north Mississippi.
Recent snowfall in the Plains and Midwest will contribute to a
strong surface high push from that region...usher in near freezing
air into the northern Midsouth counties by midnight. Models
indicate enough just enough lingering QPF to bring a rain and snow
mix and maybe an hour or two of sleet to points north of I-40.
Accumulations will be tough however...given the warmer ground
temperatures. However there is a chance for a light dusting along
the Kentucky border. In addition a strong northeast gradient will
set-up Friday evening that may prompt the need for a wind
advisory in the Delta. Precipitation should exit east before
sunrise Saturday leaving a cold raw day in it's wake. Many places
will struggle to see highs of 50F...with midday wind chills stuck
in the mid and upper 30s. Freeze and frost headlines anticipated
Saturday night as winds decouple.

Sunday and Monday...models in agreement for a persistent cool
pattern east of the Continental Divide. The next shortwave in the
fast upper flow will slide through the Mid- Mississippi and Ohio
River Valleys...with light rainfall moving into the Midsouth
Sunday evening and exiting by Monday evening.

Midweek...long-range model solutions show a brief dry period for
Tuesday with temperatures about 5 degrees below normal. A warm up
begins Wednesday of next week as upper level heights build in
from the west. The next disturbance to flatten this ridge will
arrive next Thursday. 60+ dewpoints will allow for a few T-storms.

JAB

&&

.AVIATION.../12z TAFs/

VFR conditions will prevail through today and tonight. South winds
between 6-10 kts...with some higher gusts possible at KJBR today.
Winds should diminish this evening and become light and variable
overnight.

By Friday morning, clouds will lower to MVFR along with increased
rain chances. Winds will again increase to 8 kts or greater from
the south.
