The radar

The Columbus AFB radar (KGWX), 34 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 13:47 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Birmingham, AL (KBMX), launched 12:00Z, 1.7 hours before the alert went out and 167 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What 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 Dec 6, 6:06 AM CST, 1 hour 37 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 6, 6:06 AM CST, 1 hour 37 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Jackson MS
606 AM CST Mon Dec 6 2021

.UPDATE...
Updated for 12Z aviation discussion

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z TAF discussion:

A cold front moving NW to SE will bring hazardous aviation
weather to the area as we go through today. Ahead of the front,
we'll continue to see widespready MVFR/IFR ceilings along with
increasing TSRA activity and southerly surface wind. A squall
line and wind shift to NW will accompany the frontal passage that
should reach GLH/GWO by mid morning, and eventually the HBG/PIB
area by early to mid afternoon. Following the frontal passage
will be a short duration of RA/VCTS with continued gusty NW-N
surface wind. Ceilings will rise to mostly VFR category this
evening and VFR conditions should prevail thereafter through the
overnight. /EC/

&&

.DISCUSSION...

Today through tonight...forced ascent in an unstable and moist
environment ahead of an approaching cold front is resulting in a
squall line that should move quickly across the forecast area
today. Fairly strong low level flow coinciding with the deep
convection will support a threat for damaging wind gusts, but
unfavorable low level shear vectors oriented mostly parallel to
the convective line should help mitigate a more significant wind
threat. Otherwise, expect brief very heavy rainfall to accompany
the line with lingering rain and much cooler, polar air to follow
in it's wake. By this evening, the rain should be over for the
most part and cold advection will continue through the night with
temperatures dipping well into the 30s north of the I-20 corridor.
Folks planning to be outdoors late tonight into the early morning
will want to be prepared for uncomfortable conditions given
continued northerly breezes. /EC/

Tuesday through next weekend (Sunday)...

(Tues-Fri): An active pattern of perturbed westerly flow will
persist through the week. At the start on Tues, frontal zone will
have shifted off to the SE over the N Gulf Coast, while strong sfc
high will be moving through the Mid-W. With widespread clouds,
this will combine with cooler low-level thermo, leading to highs
only in low-mid 50s areawide. Lingering ascent from N Gulf
shortwave trough & moisture will help some showers move back in
E-SE, generally SE of a Natchez to Meridian line. A few storms
can't be ruled out due to some elevated instability, but most
should remain showers. With strong sfc high to the N, lows will be
chilly in the low 40s N to near 50 degrees in S Wed morn. Any
showers should begin to wind down before midnight Wed but could
pick back up by Wed morn, with a rumble of thunder possible. Highs
will remain cool but near climo in low-mid 60s or so.

Thurs-Fri: Another jet streak will develop over the central
Plains/TX Panhandle into Thurs & eject E-NE. This will help fav
right entrance region/diffluence & ascent, with moisture climbing
back to the 1.25-1.5 inch PW mark. Strong WAA will help low-level
thermo warm into the mid-upper teens by late week. With moisture &
ascent on the increase, sct rain & storm chances will move back in
across most areas S of I-20 Thur & areawide into Fri. With some
subtle 30-40kt westerly bulk shear & some lapse
rates/destabilization, some sct strong storms can't be ruled out
Fri. Mean synoptic positive tilt trough will evolve over the
Intermountain W into the Plains/Mid-W by late week. 100-150kt jet at
500mb & 300mb, respectively, will help strong 990-995mb sfc cyclone
to deepen over the Plains & eject NE into Great Lakes. This will
help WAA & warm front lift E-NE, & strongest ascent/forcing into the
weekend.

Sat-Sun: As the 990mb sfc cyclone moves into the Great Lakes, sfc
cold front will swing E-SE. Base of the mean positive tilt trough is
progged to move E-SE out of the Intermountain W through Sat & into
Sun move through the area. This will help the strongest
ascent/forcing & powerful upper jet (i.e. 100-130kt at 500mb & 150-
170kt at 300mb) to develop over the Great Lakes/OH Valley down into
the Mid-S & Ozarks. Fav jet dynamics/right entrance region will help
rain & storm chances to quickly develop across the Mid-S, ArkLaTex &
front swing E-SE through the day. With strong shear of 50-70kts at 0-
3 & 0-6km, respectively, some strong, organized convection is
possible. But overnight timing, limited lapse rates & SW mean bulk
shear parallel to line orientation should limit most severe
potential. Will remain something to watch. Highs will be tricky &
faster progged timing lends credence to lower highs in Delta but
warmer to the E-SE. This will be a tough call & some highs could
occur near or before daybreak. Trough & front are progged to swing
through into Sun, with nearly 1030mb sfc high building into the
region Sun. This will bring strong isentropic subsidence, drying
moisture profiles (i.e. PWs less than quarter inch) & clearing
skies/cooler temps near below normal in the mid-upper 50s. /DC/
