.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 401 AM CDT Sat Jun 10 2023

Today and Tonight: early morning water vapor imagery/RAP analysis
had the large closed low that has been over the New England states
the last couple of days, north of Maine and into Canada. The upper
level trough axis associated with this low will continue shifting
east today and our northwest flow aloft early this morning will
become more zonal by afternoon. A shortwave trough within this
nearly zonal flow aloft will move over our CWA during peak heating
and enhance convection; some of which may become strong to severe.
The 00Z Saturday JAN sounding had a PWAT of 1.68in and PWATs are
expected to increase above an inch and three quarters this
afternoon. Early morning surface analysis showed dew points in the
upper 60s to lower 70s. Surface analysis had a weak ridge across the
Gulf coast from the east that is expected to result in a light
southerly wind today that will help maintain low level moisture
through the afternoon. Together these features are expected to lead
to a greater coverage of mainly afternoon and evening convection.
CAMs suggest that convection across our CWA will increase by noon
and to our west as the shortwave trough approaches. By mid afternoon
the convection to our west may become more organized and spread into
our CWA. This activity will bring a risk for damaging winds and
perhaps hail to quarter size. This activity is expected to continue
spreading east southeast across our CWA during the evening and
should dissipate or shift southeast of our southeast most zones
before midnight. Temperatures are expected to make it into the lower
90s at most locations before getting knocked down by convection. Our
lows tonight will run warmer than normal. /22/

Sunday through Monday...

The system should begin to track east out of Mississippi by Sunday
morning as a another closed low tracks south from Central Canada
into the Ohio River Valley. This should allow for a cold front to
push into our CWA by Sunday night. Some strong storms could occur
ahead of this front mainly along and north of the I-20 corridor.
With SBCAPE near 2500 J/kg, steep mid-level (700mb-500mb) lapse
rates around 6.5 C/km, and PWAT values near 1.62 inches, the
environment looks favorable for isolated severe convection. Because
of this, we will continue advertise a "Marginal" Risk for isolated
severe storms. Damaging wind gusts up to 60 mph along with hail up
to quarter size will the main hazards with this system. At the
moment, current model ensembles show a weak QPF signal stretching
across our forecast area. Overall, rainfall amounts should remain on
the lighter side across most of central Mississippi. Areas north of
I-20 could see rainfall amounts up to a half an inch where localized
downpours will be possible.

As the cold front shifts further south and stalls across the lower
Mississippi Valley late Monday afternoon, there is a possibility
that thunderstorms could redevelop south of I-20. After
collaborating with the Storm Prediction Center (SPC), we will
advertise a "Marginal" risk for isolated severe storms with damaging
wind gusts and quarter size hail being the primary hazards. The
closed low should begin to slowly track northeastward along with the
cold front and clearing out of our forecast area by late Monday
evening.

Tuesday through the weekend...

Out towards the west, a low pressure system centered across
California is slowly pushing eastward across the southwest CONUS. In
response to this, a ridge axis is tracking east across the Southern
Plains towards the southeast US. This should allow for warm gulf air
to settle across our CWA leading to increasing temperatures and
diurnal convection. Wednesday through Friday looks to be the hottest
days with afternoon highs forecasted to peak in the mid to upper 90s
across the southeast region. A couple of locations could see heat
indexes reaching 105. In response to this, we will continue to
advertise a "Limited" risk for heat stress mainly for the southwest
portion of our CWA. Make sure to stay hydrated and take frequent
breaks if working outdoors. /CRJ/
