Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Jackson MS
1105 AM CDT Sun Jul 14 2019

.UPDATE...
Updated for morning discussion.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Focus this morning remains on Barry and its decreasing transition.
Despite the center near Shreveport LA, the asymmetric nature remains
and the moisture rich areas continue to the be the S/SE and now E
sides. This fits the overall transition the models have been
suggesting and with the wind field relaxing today, look like the
active sides will continue to be on the S/SE with more of the E side
becoming a bigger part. For us, our forecast area in all within this
active side and this looks to remain so as we move into Monday, so
our active period will remain for another 24-36 hrs. As for specific
threats and impact priority, here's a breakdown:

Flood Threat: This threat remains the focus for biggest impacts.
We've see a few corridors from the overnight/morning period with
measured amounts of 2-5 inches. These have been more with the
eastern bands and in focused corridors. However, models continue to
support the idea of a heavy precip axis taking shape today and
overnight across our SW and the W-central. This is where the really
deep tropical moisture (sfc dewpts 77-79) will be tapped in the
primary confluent zone. Our graphics and messaging have been hitting
this potential and will remain. Here, confidence is high in 4-8
inches with localized 8-12 inches possible. Rain rates will be very
high with extremely efficient rainfall process. The rest of the area
should see 2-6 inches with locally higher amounts. This is event
total expectations. As noted, some locations are already in the 2-5
inch range, the wording for locally higher fits that thinking. For
timing, today into a good portion of Mon is the main window with
tonight potentially seeing some really high amounts over the SW cwa.

Severe Threat: Thinking is not much different in terms of brief
tornadoes being the main threat with some damaging wind gusts mixed
in the better/more intense bands. What has changed is confidence is
a little higher based off latest trends where conditions may support
a bit more coverage of severe storms. Due to this, Slight risk was
added and expanded to cover a large portion of the area. Instability
will be lacking, but the deeper tropical airmass where sfc dewpts in
the upper 70s will make for a more favorable thermodynamic
environment. Additionally, low level shear is best from I-55 and
west, with lesser shear the more E. Overall, the best overlap of
shear/instability is roughly across central parts of the cwa and
fits with the Slight risk area. Timing is now into the overnight and
could linger into Monday. Basically long duration as residence time
in the favorable parameter space will exist.

Wind Threat: this has ended as the circulation center of Barry is
too far removed. There could be occasional gusts to 25 mph. /CME/

.AVIATION...
12Z TAF discussion:
Widespread RA with isolated TS will continue to spread across the
region today as Tropical Storm Barry lifts northward across the
region. Ceilings will fluctuate between low VFR and MVFR.
Visibilities will fall to IFR at times in heavier rain bands.
SE/ESE winds will be gusty at times, especially across SE
Arkansas/W Mississippi/NE Louisiana. /DL/
