.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 315 AM CDT Sat Apr 5 2025

Today through Sunday...The threat for severe weather will steadily
increase across the forecast area from west to east through the
course of this afternoon into late tonight, before finally ending
Sunday morning.  Ridging aloft that's dominated the weather across
the forecast area for much of the work week will break down over the
region today through tonight. This'll allow a closed low pressure
system to move east from the desert southwest into the southern
plains today.  Overnight into Sunday, this low will lift northeast
into the Mid-Mississippi River Valley. This will result in a surface
low developing, which in turn will lift northeast near/through the
region along a stalled frontal boundary just to our west.  This will
eventually result in the frontal boundary moving east into and
through the CWA overnight into Sunday.  Unfortunately in the warm
sector ahead of it, it'll bring the threat for severe storms across
the entire forecast area from around mid-afternoon, through the
overnight hours, into Sunday morning.

Ahead of this front, adequate amounts of moisture/instability will
be pooled across the forecast area.  Along with this, sufficient
deep-layer and low-level wind shear from increasing jet energy and
good forcing will exist.  Currently the better potential for severe
storms exists across western portions of the CWA, essentially along
and west of a Eupora to Jackson metro to Bude Mississippi line,
where an "Enhanced Risk" of severe storms.  Here, the better
potential for bowing segments and supercells capable of producing
damaging wind gusts to 70 mph, large hail to golf ball size (given
here is were the better mid-level lapse rates reside), and
tornadoes (some of which could be strong) will exist.

Across the remainder of the forecast area, a "Slight Risk" of
severe storms exists overnight into Sunday morning. Convection
across this area continues to look to have congealed more into a
broken line of storms that will be capable of producing damaging
wind gusts to 60 mph, up to quarter size hail, as well as
tornadoes. Please continue to monitor the latest forecast and
outlook today, as both timing and threat areas associated with
this storm system continue to be fine-tuned.

Again, a very "soupy" airmass is in place across the region.  In
addition to the severe storm threat, very heavy downpours and some
potential for training convection could yield some localized flash
flooding across the area.  This will especially be the case across
northwest portions of the forecast area where 3-5 inches of rain,
and locally higher, will be possible. South of this, and over the
remainder of the CWA, a widespread 1-3 inches will be possible. This
will continue to also be highlighted in the HWO.

A tight pressure gradient also continues to lingering across the
forecast area today.  This will again result in breezy south winds
through the afternoon hours.  Expect sustained winds today to be
sustained at times between 20-25 mph, gusting to between 30-40 mph
at times. A "Limited Threat" for strong winds thus continues across
the CWA this afternoon.

Also, hot muggy conditions will remain across the area for one final
afternoon in this current forecast pattern. Once again, look for
some record high temperatures to be in jeopardy of either being tied
or broken this afternoon. Highs will range from the mid 80s to lows
90s under mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies.

Sunday afternoon through Friday...While the severe threat comes to
an end through Sunday morning, rain chances will linger across a
good portion of the area into the afternoon hours, with cloud cover
lingering into the first half of Monday.  As the cold front exits
east, cooler, drier, and quieter conditions will begin to prevail
across the CWA. Northwest flow aloft and at the surface will begin
ushering in this noticeably cooler drier airmass. Luckily these
quieter drier conditions will linger in place across the CWA through
the majority of the mid and extended portions of the forecast.
However, temperatures will steadily moderate up through the week.
Currently, the next best chance for rain looks to enter the forecast
Thursday night into Friday morning, mainly over the Golden Triangle
area, as a weak cold front swings through the forecast area. /19/
