Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Jackson MS
550 AM CST Thu Feb 6 2020

.UPDATE...
Updated for 12Z aviation discussion

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z TAF discussion:
TAFs will predominately remain in the MVFR category through the
majority of the next 24 hours.  This is as a result of convection
and clouds associated with an system that won't clear the forecast
area until early Friday morning.  While the bulk of the moderate and
heavy rainfall exits the area late this morning, light rain and low
ceilings this afternoon and overnight will account for the degraded
flight categories during that time.  Then towards day break Friday,
clouds will begin to move out of the area, with the onset of VFR
categories beginning as clouds exit the region.  Winds throughout
the period will be breezy from the west northwest, eventually
becoming gusty later tonight. /19/

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Today and Tonight...Tornado Watch 25 was cancelled for the remainder
of the CWA at 09Z, as a strong cold front exits the CWA, taking the
threat of severe weather along with it.  However, elevated showers
and isolated storms remain in the front's wake, ahead of the strong
trough swinging east across the plains states.  While these
lingering storms are again elevated and expected to remain below
severe limits, some of the more robust cores could produce some
small hail as mid-level lapse rates remain in the 6.5-7 C/km range.

This activity will steadily exit the eastern portion of the CWA
through the morning. However, light rain will remain in the forecast
for much of the CWA today as the upper trough finally swings into
the region this afternoon. This will help in essentially squeezing
out any remaining moisture over the forecast area through the course
of the afternoon and evening hours.  Colder drier air will steadily
advect into the region through the course of the day, with highs
this afternoon ranging from the mid 40s to upper 50s.

As the trough exits the region overnight, some precipitation will
linger as moisture wraps around the back side of it.  As noticeably
colder drier air continues advecting into the region, temperatures
will fall into the low and middle 30s.  Model soundings indicate
that there remains some potential that any lingering light rain or
drizzle across mainly the Golden Triangle area early Friday morning,
could briefly transition to light snow or flurries across that area.
No accumulation or impact is currently expected if this indeed
transpires. /19/

Friday through next Wednesday...Expect a brief period of dry
weather and seasonable temperatures Friday and Friday night, with
showers returning Saturday as another system quickly moves into
the region. Highs Friday will be in the 50s, then warming to the
mid 50s to mid 60s Saturday. Another short period of dry weather
will return Sunday as high pressure influences the region. Highs
Sunday will be in the 60s area wide. Unsettled weather returns to
the region Sunday night through Wednesday, along with continued
warming as another frontal system impacts the region. With good
warm air advection ahead of the boundary and plenty of Gulf
moisture available, some convective storms will be possible Monday
through Wednesday. Highs Monday look to range from the lower 60s
to the lower 70s, with Highs Tuesday and Wednesday looking to be
in the mid 60s to mid 70s. /27/
