DLWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this special weather statement 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 special weather statement went out at Mar 30, 9:49 PM CDT, 1 hour 9 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 30, 9:49 PM CDT, 1 hour 9 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jackson MS 949 PM CDT Tue Mar 30 2021 .UPDATE... Updated for evening discussion. && .DISCUSSION... Well this evening has been busy. Showers this afternoon developed and/or moved into the region from the south. Plenty of warm, moist air was in place with PW values around 1.67 inches per the 00Z KJAN sounding and afternoon temperatures in the upper 70s and around 80. As these showers moved north, some encountered just enough shear to exhibit rotation with a likely tornado occurring in Covington County per picture and video this evening. Additional cells have also shown rotation, but there have been no additional reports thus far. Most recently, a storm moving into northeast Louisiana from the west has been the storm with the best rotation this evening. SPC mesoanalysis shows 40kts of effective shear and 200 m2/s2 of effective SRH across portions of the area south of the warm front. These storms will continue to push north tonight but more are occurring across northern Mississippi, which are pushing east. Hi-res guidance continues to indicate that additional storms should develop overnight across northern Mississippi and Arkansas. There does show to be some weakening as they push south later tonight into early tomorrow morning but there remains potential for isolated strong to severe storms to occur. These storms will continue to push south through the day tomorrow, and potential for stronger to more severe storms during the afternoon. Going forecast is in decent enough shape. /28/ Prior discussion below: Tonight and Wednesday: Afternoon visible and water vapor satellite imagery shows increasing cloud cover and moisture moving in from the west. At the surface, winds have become southerly and boundary layer modification has been ongoing with dewpoints rising through the 50s F this morning and into the 60s F this afternoon. This is in response to an approaching longwave trough axis and associated surface warm front. Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms are likely this afternoon along and near the warm front as significant warm air advection contributes to lift alongside modest diurnal destabilization. As the trough nears tonight, a cold front will be pushed through the area from north to south. While limited instability and relatively disorganized lower level winds will limit the threat, a marginal risk does exist this evening and tonight for a few isolated storms near and along the front. Adequate deep layer shear and sufficient boundary layer moisture should allow for modest thunderstorm development and for this reason, marginally severe hail (to 1") and gusty winds (to 60 mph) will be possible. The threat for a tornado is low, but not zero tonight. Storms will generally stay along and north of the I-20 corridor. Lows tonight will have a bit higher gradient from north to south than typical, with mid 50s F behind the front in northern Mississippi and Arkansas to upper 60s in southeast Mississippi. Wednesday morning, the front will be moving to near the I-20 and the marginal threat for strong the severe storms will be confined to central and southern Mississippi as well as eastern Louisiana. Similar threats will exist as during the night tonight, with the highest probability for a severe storm occuring coincident with maximum diurnal boundary layer heating during the afternoon and early evening. In far southeastern Mississippi, instability may be a bit higher than elsewhere with MUCAPE possibly reaching 2,000 j/kg. This could allow for a bit more robust thunderstorm development and a somewhat higher risk for damaging wind gusts. For this reason, a slight risk area has been introduced for the Pine Belt. By Wednesday evening, the front will be moving into southeastern Mississippi with significant drying and cooling expected behind as the threat for storms ends. Along and behind the front, gusty winds are likely. Nonthunderstorm wind gusts may reach 35-45 mph in the Mississippi River Delta areas with gusts 30-40 mph elsewhere. A few trees and limbs may fall and travel may become difficult for high profile vehicles. A few powerlines may become downed but widespread impacts to power infrastructure is not expected. Highs Wednesday will be cool in the north behind the cold front, low to middle 60s F. South of the front, temperatures will rise prior to frontal passage into the upper 70s F. /86/ Wednesday night through Monday: Leftover showers in the southeast during the early evening Wednesday night will be replaced by overnight cold advection as the tight pressure gradient maintains surface winds. Much drier air will be ushered into the area as dewpoints drop into the upper 20s and lower 30s. Winds will gradually diminish from the west during the afternoon as the high pressure axis settles over the area. Clear skies, dry air and calming winds will lead to ideal radiational cooling conditions Thursday night. With such dry air, temperatures will quickly fall, settling in the upper 20s and 30s after midnight. With the temperatures and resulting widespread frost, significant damage to tender new growing season vegetation may occur. Frost may be possible over northeast portions again Friday night, but returning southerly flow will limit the overall potential. Southerly flow will increase Saturday into Monday as a weakening mid level shortwave approaches the area. Not looking for any precipitation, but maximums will climb into the 70s and minimums will moderate into the 50s./GG/ && .AVIATION... 00Z TAF discussion: A mix of VFR and MVFR flight categories are ongoing this evening thanks to rain and storms around. These could affect TAF sites and bring heavy downpours and gusty winds. More storms will drop south through the night into tomorrow morning as a cold front moves through the region. Continued MVFR to IFR flight categories will occur with this activity tonight into tomorrow before finally clearing back to VFR from northwest to southeast through the afternoon. Winds will be gusty behind the front out of the north with sustained 15-20kts and gusts to 30kts. /28/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
