NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 19, 11:33 AM CST, 3 hours 47 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS 1233 PM CDT SAT JUN 19 2004 .SYNOPSIS...VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS A WEAK COLD FRONT SAGGING SOUTHWARD INTO SOUTHWESTERN TENNESSEE AND CENTRAL ARKANSAS. THE MAIN RELIEF THAT THE FRONT IS PROVIDING IS A SLIGHT DIP IN THE DEW POINTS...AND THUS RELATIVE HUMIDITIES...BEHIND THE FRONT. TO THE WEST...AN INTENSIFYING MCS IS SLOWLY MOVING EAST THROUGH EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND EXTREME NORTHEAST TEXAS. AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY OUT AHEAD OF THE MCV IS COLLIDING WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY OVER CENTRAL ARKANSAS AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE AND IS HELPING TO INITIATE SOME CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY THERE. MEANWHILE...TO THE SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST...AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE BEGINNING TO REFIRE ALONG AND SOUTH OF US HIGHWAY 84 AGAIN. THIS FORMATION IS IN RESPONSE TO INTENSE DAILY HEATING COUPLED WITH A THETA-E AND INSTABILITY AXIS OVER THE AREA. && .AVIATION...A COLD FRONT PUSHING THROUGH THE AREA OVERNIGHT SHOULD ALLEVIATE MOST SIGNIFICANT FOG CONCERNS...DESPITE ANTICIPATED LIGHT WINDS. THE MIXING THAT THE FRONT PROVIDES SHOULD JUST BE ENOUGH TO HELP REDUCE THE FOG POTENTIAL. WITH THAT SAID...MOS GUIDANCE DOES SHOW SOME FOG FORMATION NEAR MERIDIAN AND NAS MERIDIAN. ACTUALLY...THE MAIN AVIATION CONCERN OVER THE NEXT 24 TO 48 HOURS WILL BE FOR THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY...WHICH IS FORECAST TO BE SCATTERED. RIGHT NOW...APPEARS THAT THE BEST THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WILL BE SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 20 AND ALSO WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER. && .FIRE WEATHER...STRONG RH RECOVERIES DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. MIN RH LEVELS DURING THE DAY SHOULD BOTTOM OUT NEAR 50 PERCENT. SO...THE MAIN FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL REMAIN LIGHTNING WITH THE MOSTLY AFTERNOON AND EVENING SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH MID WEEK. WINDS ARE ANTICIPATED TO REMAIN LIGHT UNTIL NEXT THURSDAY...WHICH IS WHEN A FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PASS. && .SHORT TERM...FOR TONIGHT...EXPECT THE MCV TO THE WEST TO CONTINUE TO VERY SLOWLY PROPAGATE EASTWARD ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY...WEAKENING AND TAKING ON A MORE SOUTHEASTERLY MOVEMENT AS IT MOVES THROUGH LOUISIANA. BY MID MORNING SUNDAY...IT SHOULD BEGIN TO REINTENSIFY ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY OVER CENTRAL LOUISIANA. MEANWHILE TO THE SOUTH...THE DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION SHOULD TAPER OFF AROUND SUNSET AS MOST OF THE INSTABILITY IS LOST. THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE THAT THE DELTA AND CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI COULD SEE SOME NOCTURNAL CONVECTION AS A WEAK WAVE MOVES THROUGH ALONG THE FRONT...SERVING AS A TRIGGER FOR CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY. ANY DEVELOPMENT THAT OCCURS DURING THE OVERNIGHT SHOULD BE NONSEVERE. EXPECT A HIGHER PROBABILITY FOR CONVECTION TOMORROW AND TOMORROW NIGHT. HOWEVER...THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH THE REDEVELOPMENT AND TRACK OF THE MCV THAT IS ANTICIPATED OVER CENTRAL LOUISIANA. AT THIS TIME...REFERRING THE GFS FOR SEVERAL REASONS. FIRST IT APPEARS TO REDEVELOP IT OVER AN THE AREA WHICH HAS A STRONG THETA-E RIDGE AND IS CO-LOCATED WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. IN ADDITION...THE PRESENCE OF A STRONG WAVE OVER THE LOCATION SEEMS TO BE A MORE THAN ADEQUATE TRIGGER TO GET IT GOING. THIS FEATURE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK...SO THE REDEVELOPMENT OF THE MCS LOOKS GOOD. HOWEVER...HAVE ONLY GONE WITH UPPER 40 POPS DUE TO UNCERTAINTY WITH ITS TRACK. AT ANY RATE...EXPECT THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHT AS THE WAVE MOVES NORTHEAST ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. ON MONDAY...THE GFS WANTS TO CONTINUE WIDESPREAD CONVECTION OVER THE FORECAST AREA. I DISAGREE WITH THIS SOLUTION. RATHER THINK THAT WILL ONLY SEE LOW END SCATTERED POPS MONDAY...DUE TO THE ATMOSPHERIC INSTABILITY BEING USED UP FROM THE MCS. THE ETA HINTS A SHORT WAVE RIDGE MONDAY AFTERNOON. ALSO THINK THAT THIS MIGHT BE A LITTLE OVERDONE...BUT STILL CLOSER TO REALITY THAN THE GFS FOR THIS PERIOD. FOR TUESDAY...EXPECT MORE OF A TYPICAL SUMMERTIME DAY WITH SCATTERED MAINLY AFTERNOON AND EVENING CONVECTION. THE MAIN FOCUS OF CONVECTION SHOULD BE OVER THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN AREAS...SINCE THESE AREAS WILL HAVE THE HIGHEST MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY. ON WEDNESDAY...EXPECTING SOME HEAT-RELATED CONCERNS IN ADDITION TO THE NORMAL SCATTERED AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS. STRONG DEW POINT RECOVERIES INTO THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 70S COUPLED WITH AFTERNOON TEMPS IN THE LOWER 90S SHOULD ALLOW FOR THE HEAT INDICES IN SOME AREAS TO APPROACH 105 DEGREES. WILL NEED TO MONITOR THAT. SINCE WEDNESDAYS CONVECTION IS ANTICIPATED TO BE MOSTLY DIURNALLY DRIVEN...EXPECT THOSE STORMS TO DIMINISH AROUND SUNSET. && .LONG TERM...ON THURSDAY...EYES SHIFT TO TO TEXAS FOR THE POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF A POTENT WAVE IN AN ENTRENCHED WESTERLY FLOW OVER WESTERN TEXAS...ONE THAT COULD HAVE AMPLE SHEAR TO HELP GET THINGS ROCKING. IF THIS SYSTEM WERE TO DEVELOP AS PROGGED...BUT THIS IS A BIG IF CONSIDERING THAT THIS LATEST RUN OF THE GFS IS ALOT STRONGER WITH THE WAVE THAN PREVIOUS RUNS. NEVER-THE-LESS...WILL BE MONITORING THIS ONE TO SEE IF THE CURRENT RUN IS HITTING ON SOMETHING. AS IT STANDS NOW...IT LOOKS LIKE THE SYSTEM WOULD MOVE THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT WITH STORMS LINGERING OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN AREAS ON FRIDAY AS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY SLOWLY MOVES THROUGH. PRECIPITATION SHOULD COME TO AN END BY SATURDAY MORNING AS A SURFACE RIDGE BUILDS IN. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

A SURFACE BOUNDARY SETTING UP FROM NORTHEAST TEXAS TO SOUTH MISSISSIPPI IS PROVIDING A FOCUS FOR SCATTERED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. INSTABILITY IS GREAT ALONG THIS BOUNDARY...AND IS SUPPORTIVE OF ISOLATED STRONG THUNDERSTORMS. STORMS WILL DIMINISH WITH THE SETTING SUN. FOR SUNDAY...AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST AND COULD TRIGGER ADDITIONAL STRONG THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY IN THE AREA ALONG AND SOUTHWEST OF LAKE VILLAGE ARKANSAS TO JACKSON TO LAUREL MISSISSIPPI LINE. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY... NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME. .SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT...
