NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Aug 6, 2:31 PM CST, 29 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS 331 PM CDT SAT AUG 6 2005 CORRECTED TO INCLUDE EXTENDED DISCUSSION .DISCUSSION... CONVECTION DEVELOPING FROM THE NW AND SE THIS AFTERNOON. SHORTWAVE AND ASSOCIATED SHEAR ZONE HAVE SHIFTED SLIGHTLY FARTHER EAST TODAY BUT NOT FAR ENOUGH TO PREVENT UPSTREAM CONVECTION FROM DEVELOPING BACK WWD INTO THE FORECAST AREA. BAROCLINIC BAND ACROSS SRN PLAINS INTO MID WEST AREAS REMAINS PERCHED NORTH OF THE REGION. DEEP CONVECTION ACROSS AR DEVELOPING INTO NRN ZONES THIS AFTERNOON. ASSOCIATED BAROCLINIC BAND FORECAST TO SHIFT SLIGHTLY SWD OVERNIGHT...MAINTAINING THE BEST CHANCE OF RAIN ACROSS NWRN SECTIONS THIS EVENING. WENT A LITTLE ABOVE MOS NUMBERS FOR POPS THIS EVENING THOSE AREAS. MODELS DIVERGE ON SOLUTION OVERNIGHT. GFS DRAGS MCS INTO NWRN MS LATE TONIGHT...DRAGGING THE SYSTEM SWD ACROSS WRN ZONES EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. NEITHER NAM NOR EURO FOLLOW TREND OF SUCH AN INTENSE MCS BUT NAM MAINTAINS BETTER POPS THAN GFS AS IT SHIFTS BAROCLINIC BAND SWD. EVOLUTION OF SHORTWAVE/MCS SCENARIO WILL DETERMINE EVENTUAL RAINFALL PATTERN FOR SUNDAY. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES HAVE FALLEN SLIGHTLY FROM YESTERDAY BUT REMAIN AROUND 1.5 INCHES. WILL MAINTAIN MENTION OF PONDING IN HWO FROM STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS. ALSO LOWERED MOS HIGHS SLIGHTLY FOR TOMORROW NWRN AREAS IN LIGHT OF POSSIBLE CONVECTION EARLY IN THE DAY./03/ NO BIG CHANGES IN THE FORECAST FOR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK AS MDLS CONTINUE TO SHOW AN ACTIVE PERIOD. AS THIS DISTURBANCE MOVES SOUTH THROUGH THE PLAINS WILL LOOK TO TAKE OVER AS THE UPPER LOW CURRENTLY OVER THE AREA WEAKENS. THIS WILL MOVE THE SHEAR AXIS FURTHER TO THE WEST AND LEAVE THE AREA IN A FAVORED SHRA AND TSRA REGION AS MENTIONED BY PREVIOUS FORECASTER. ATMOSPHERE WILL REMAIN VERY MOIST WITH PWS AROUND 2. THE REGION STILL LOOKS TO REMAIN IN THE FAVORED RRQ OF THE UPPER JET. WITH THESE FEATURES AND DAYTIME HEATING LOOK FOR AFTERNOON/EVENING SHRA AND TSRA THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. BEST CHANCE FOR WIDESPREAD TO NUMEROUS SHRA AND TSRA APPEARS TO BE TUE. THERE WILL BE A LITTLE FLOW AT H5 TRYING TO PUSH INTO WSTRN ZONES. ALSO THE BEST UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE/JET WILL OCCUR OVER THE AREA LATE TUE AND THIS MAY ALLOW THE ACTIVITY TO CARRY ON INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. MORE OF THE SAME LOOKS POSSIBLE WED BUT I EXPECT ACTIVITY TO LIKELY BEGIN PRETTY EARLY IN THE DAY AS THE UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE IS ENHANCED BY THE H25 LOW OVER THE GULF AND THE BUILD RIDGE OVER THE SESTRN CONUS. WITH THAT SAID AND LIKE GOING FORECAST HAS...GUIDANCE VALUES LOOK PRETTY GOOD. TEMPERATURES WILL BE SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL AS RAIN AND CLOUDS WILL LIKELY KEEP THINGS SLIGHTLY COOLER. ONCE AGAIN GUIDANCE SEEMS TO HAVE A DECENT HANDLE ON IT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MON. VALUES SEEM WAY TO HIGH FOR H85 TEMPS OF ONLY 18C SO I DID GO A FEW DEGREES LOWER FOR MON. AS FOR SEVERE...I AGREE WITH PREVIOUS FORECASTERS THOUGHT THAT SEVERE TSRA ARE NOT FAVORABLE ESPECIALLY WED AS CONVECTION WILL LIKELY BREAK OUT TOO EARLY TO ALLOW ANY ORGANIZED TSRA DEVELOPMENT. BEST CHANCE FOR ANY STRONG TSRA APPEARS TO BE TUE AS CONVECTION WILL LIKELY HOLD OFF UNTIL LATER IN THE DAY ALLOWING GREATER INSTABILITY AND WITH SOME MID LEVEL FLOW TRYING TO PUSH INTO THE AREA THEY MAY BE A FEW ORGANIZED TSRA. HEAVY WILL STILL BE THE MAIN THREAT THROUGH WED AS OVERALL FLOW WILL BE WEAK ALLOWING FOR SLOW MOVING STORMS MAINLY CONTROLLED BY OUTFLOW BNDRYS AND COLD POOLS. IT LOOKS LIKE SLIGHTLY DRIER AND WARMER WEATHER MAY BE ON TAP FOR THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEK AS THE UPPER RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE SESTRN CONUS LATE THU AND INTO FRI. AT THE SFC THE BERMUDA HIGH WILL TRY TO PUSH INTO THE REGION. THIS WILL BEING A BROAD SWTRLY LL FLOW OVER THE AREA WHILE MID LEVEL FLOW WILL BE OUT OF THE SOUTH. MOISTURE WILL STILL BE ABUNDANT SO WILL CONTINUE PRECIP CHANCES IN THE FORECAST THROUGH THE WEEK BUT WILL BE LOWER AS COVERAGE WILL NOT BE NEARLY AS HIGH AS TUE AND WED. AS FOR TEMPS...H85 TEMPS WARM UP ABOUT 2 DEGREES AND THIS ALONG WITH THE SCATTERED NATURE OF SHRA AND TSRA SHOULD ALLOW THE HIGHS TO GET BACK INTO THE MID 90S. /CAB/ && .AVIATION... CONVECTION WILL INCREASE ACROSS FORECAST AREA FROM THE NORTH THIS EVENING WITH ADDITIONAL AREAS OF STORMS MOVING IN FROM THE SE. THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH THIS EVENING WITH ISOLATED STORMS UNTIL MIDNIGHT. AREAS OF FOG WILL DEVELOP BUT VISIBILITIES WILL REMAIN IN THE MVFR RANGE MOST AREAS. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
