CMEWhat 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 Jan 19, 12:19 AM CST, 3 hours 49 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 19, 12:19 AM CST, 3 hours 49 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Jackson MS 1219 AM CST Sat Jan 19 2019 .UPDATE... Updated for 06Z aviation discussion and forecast update && .AVIATION... 06Z TAF discussion: Overall expect a scattering of MVFR to IFR ceilings through the overnight hours & through the mid-morning to early afternoon. Expect the strong cold front to sweep across the area tonight, with some scattered showers & isolated storms ongoing currently, especially near northern TAF sites (i.e. GLH, GWO & GTR). Expect a gradual uptick in isolated storm development over the next several hours before a gradual transition & eastward sweeping broken squall line to move across the area. This line will be around 19/13-16Z @ GWO, JAN & HKS & 19/16-18Z @ GTR, MEI, HBG & PIB. Expect any TAF site impacted with brief IFR to LIFR ceilings &/or visibility & gusty winds as the line moves across. Most of the storms will through each site within a few hours after impacted. Expect conditions to improve but MVFR ceilings to linger around. In addition, expect gusty southerly winds around 25-30mph & gradually becoming more westerly with some brief gusts near or in excess of 35mph in the wake of the cold front passage. /DC/ && .DISCUSSION... Only main changes were to slightly modify PoP trends as the storms move into the area. No other major changes or thinking were adjusted with this update, with continued severe weather potential remaining through the night & into the day Saturday. Of note, there is some deeper convection developing along the cold front in east Texas, with a gradual uptick expected in more organized convection over the next several hours along & west of the Mississippi River area. Updates are out. /DC/ Prior discussion below: Expect showers and thunderstorms to be on the increase later tonight into tomorrow morning as a frontal system approaches the region. Large hail, damaging wind gusts, and tornadoes still look to be possible. Low temperatures will mainly be in the mid 50s to around 60. No major changes were needed to the current forecast. /27/ Prior discussion below: Tonight and Saturday... Low clouds have hung in across the area this afternoon, which likely has hampered heating to some degree. However, we have warmed into the lower 60s at most locations with some upper 50s lingering in the Delta. A few light returns have showed up on area radars across portions of Louisiana and expect more to occur as the evening progresses. Our next weather system is taking shape across the Southern Plains as an upper trough digs south. A surface low will develop and intensify across Oklahoma. As the evening progresses, this low will track to the east toward the Lower Mississippi Valley. Ahead of this, showers and storms will develop across the western part of the forecast area. While showers could develop through the evening, the worst of the weather looks to hold off until close to or after midnight across the west. Hi-res model guidance indicates that discrete cells could be the predominant type of storms west of I-55 before congealing into more of a QLCS east of I-55. These will have the better chance of being elevated with potentially a better threat for larger hail. This comes given steep lapse rates in place and vertical totals around 27-29C. It is in this region where we will advertise the potential for hail up to golfball size. As the storms near and move east of the I-55 corridor, guidance shows congealing more into a line of storms though some discrete cells will still be possible. With sufficient wind shear(40kts low level and 50-60kts 0-6km) and helicity(300-400m2/s2), damaging winds will be the primary risk with tornadoes also possible. Hail to at least quarter size also possible but the larger golfball size hail may not occur as much further to the east(vertical total drop slightly to around 26C). The line of storms should exit the forecast area by early afternoon with lingering light rain in its wake. This system should be fairly quick moving that flooding won't be a big concern. Another concern will be that of gradient winds following the frontal passage. As the storms move out of the region, and the upper trough moves overhead along with the departing surface low, the pressure gradient will remain tightened over the region. This will lead to gusty northerly winds through the remainder of the afternoon and into the evening hours. Winds of 20 to 25mph with gusts up to 35mph will be possible, which may bring down a few trees. We have added a limited risk for this in the HWO and graphics but have held off on a wind advisory. Temperatures will be rather mild overnight ahead of the frontal passage with lows in the 60s. Highs will occur early in the day on Saturday with temperatures falling during the day. Readings will be into the 40s and upper 30s across the Delta by later Saturday afternoon. /28/ Saturday night through Monday: Windy conditions will persist behind the front with much colder air moving into the region. Wind chills in the 20s will become possible shortly after sunset across much of the area, with teens possible after midnight especially north of I-20. Though the bulk of the precipitation will have moved east of the area, low level moisture and some wrap around precip will persist into the night as the upper trough axis remains over the area. Forecast thermal profiles suggest a possible brief transition to a mix with snow flurries over the Delta as early as after sunset and farther south and east closer to midnight. It's also conceivable moisture will be too shallow for ice nucleation, which could lead to patchy freezing drizzle being the main p-type instead. The good news is precip should be tapering off around the same time, ground temps will be warm, and no accumulations are expected. Blustery conditions will continue into Sunday, with lingering low clouds early and a cold wind. I wouldn't be entirely shocked if some patches of flurries or freezing drizzle continue through early morning over portions of northeast MS, but again no accumulations and/or travel impacts are anticipated at this time. Clouds will be pesky during the morning, but should clear out by the afternoon. With winds finally calming down Sunday evening and skies remaining mostly clear, the stage should be set for the coldest night of the forecast period. Temps in the low 20s aren't out of the realm of possibility in some of the typically colder spots Monday morning. Tuesday through next Friday: The pattern will remain rather progressive, with our next system still on target to arrive during the middle of next week. Another approaching mid/upper trough will bring a resurgence of shower activity as early as Tuesday morning. Models have become less sharp/progressive with the upper trough, however, causing the surface baroclinic zone to hesitate as it moves across our area and precipitation to persist into early Thursday. With the main trough axis lingering behind the front, this will create an opportunity for a surface low to develop along this front, spreading overrunning precip across much of the area as a strong shortwave pivots around the upper trough Wednesday into Thursday. This would occur as a colder airmass advects into the region, and unlike yesterday's model solutions, this is a more realistic pattern to see a possible change in precip type. Just to trend in that direction, we'll introduce a small area of light rain/snow mix for the late Wednesday night/early Thursday morning time frame in northern portions of the area. Of course, we'll be able to further refine and adjust this forecast as we get closer. Drier conditions are anticipated by next Friday, though some cloud cover may persist through the day owing to the lingering upper trough. /DL/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
