.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 344 PM CDT Mon Jun 7 2021/

Showers and sub-severe thunderstorms are ongoing across much of
the Midsouth with the greatest concentration and strongest storms
over north Mississippi. Cloud cover and showers have kept
temperatures in check across portions of the Midsouth, though
brief breaks in clouds have resulted in quick spikes of
temperatures into the low 80s. Storms should weaken after sunset
but due the presence of a weak upper level low at least showers
should continue through the night.

Tomorrow, the Storm Prediction Center has included much of the
Midsouth in a marginal risk for severe thunderstorms. Storms will
likely be diurnally enhanced during the afternoon hours and could
result in localized damaging wind. The upper low will begin to
shift away from the area late tomorrow, but much of the Midsouth
will remain on the east side of a broad trough. As a result more
rain and thunderstorms will continue through midweek, and possibly
through Friday. The risk of strong or severe storms looks low.

Portions of the Midsouth may see 2-3 inches of rainfall over the
next several days. Since the rain is spread over multiple days we
do not plan to issue a watch immediately, but depending on where
storms track, one may eventually be needed.

Temperatures are expected to remain seasonably mild through the
work week, but may trend a degree or two warmer by Friday. Expect
highs in the low to mid 80s through Thursday and in the mid to
upper 80s Friday.

Next weekend, guidance shows a ridge trying to build in from the
west. As a result, expect afternoon highs back in the upper 80s to
near 90 degrees and less rainfall.

.AVIATION...

In the short term expect a line of SHRAs/TSRAs to track north into
KTUP and KMEM this evening with ocnl IFR conds and some potentially
gusty winds. CAMs have line weakening as it moves toward KJBR and
KMKL so went with VCTS for now. Expect low clouds to redevelop
area-wide late tonight with more SHRAs/TSRAS pushing into the area
late tonight into early Tuesday. Expect cigs to gradually lift to
VFR once again by tomorrow afternoon with scattered SHRAs/TSRAs
continuing. Since morning precip seems focused in the MEM-MKL
corridor seems probable that the afternoon might be quiet vs more
activity across the KJBR/KTUP areas. At least that is the
thinking for now. South winds 5-10 kts tonight...higher in
TSRAs...becoming a little stronger tomorrow at 10-12 kts with
higher gusts.
