What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this wind advisory 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 wind advisory went out at Mar 14, 1:04 PM CDT, 30 minutes earlier. Its key messages:

  • A strong cold front will bring a variety of impacts to the area as we finish up the week and go into early next week.
  • There is an enhanced risk for severe weather for damaging wind gusts.
  • Strong winds will also precede and follow the cold front during the Sunday through Monday time frame.
  • Much colder air moving in Monday will bring a significant freeze threat to much of the area Monday night.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 121 AM CDT Sat Mar 14 2026

Have opted to largely maintain the messaging highlighted in the
previous discussion below. The main updates made this forecast
issuance were an additional expansion to the significant freeze
threat as confidence continues to increase with guidance trending
even colder. Other hazards remain unchanged and will continue to be
messaged in HWO. Additionally, snow flurries are possible north of
I-20 on the back side of the cold front as cold air rushes in.
These are not expected to be impactful and should be brief.

In the near term: High pressure will control our weather for much of
the weekend, staying dry through early Sunday. The surface high will
shift east of the area this morning and shift surface winds from the
south. As a result, dewpoints will gradually recover into the upper
50s to near 60 by early Sunday. A stout upper trough will support a
rapidly deepening surface low across the plains and its attendant
surface cold front continues to be the focus for our next round of
hazards.

Strong pressure falls and rises either side of the front in
association with this dynamic system will result in a strong
gradient wind threat both ahead of and in the wake of storms Sunday
night. Given increased confidence for impacts both Sunday and
Monday, have opted to message areawide limited threat for both days
for wind in HWO. The strong forcing and shear, along with sufficient
instability along the front will support a forced squall line Sunday
night, and the severe weather risk has been upgraded to
enhanced/severe by SPC given the continued increase in confidence.
The greater severe threat area looks to be over our northwest where
the combination of instability/forcing will be greatest, and where
updraft intensity and low level environment seem strong enough in
the guidance for some tornado potential, particularly with any
segments orthogonal to the low level shear vector. Considering the
forcing, instability need only be sufficient.

In the wake of the cold front, a polar surface high will usher in a
much colder airmass, and will promote freezing temperatures Monday
night into Tuesday morning, and to a lesser extent, Wednesday
morning. Confidence has increased in areawide impacts, especially
considering the recent record warmth, with highs in the 80s also
expected Sunday ahead of this freeze. Impacts to unprotected
sensitive vegetation are likely, and have expanded the "significant"
threat area in the GHWO. Temperatures will gradually warm mid to
late next week with building heights over the region. Highs will
rise back above seasonal norms with highs in the upper 70s and low
80s by Friday. A strong midlevel high over the desert southwest will
keep northerly flow over our area which will maintain dry
conditions. /SAS/EC/

(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1259 PM CDT Sat Mar 14 2026

VFR conditions will prevail for the most part during this forecast
period with the exception of the potential for early morning
BR/FG and stratus in the PIB/HBG/HEZ area. Otherwise, the primary
concern will be for increasing southerly surface winds and LLWS
as we go through the day Sunday. Looking ahead, a squall line with
damaging winds will race across the area Sunday evening. /EC/
