AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS 303 PM CDT WED JUL 13 2005 .DISCUSSION... CURRENTLY...SCT TO NUMEROUS SHRA/TSRA HAVE ERUPTED ALONG A SFC BOUNDARY IN A WARM...VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS. THIS ACTIVITY WILL PERSIST INTO THE EVENING WITH TEMPS OUTSIDE OF RAINFALL PEAKING IN THE LOWER 90S. TONIGHT...THE BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN ACTIVE INTO THE EVENING...WITH SCT COVERAGE DECREASING AFTER 9 PM. MUCH LIKE THE PAST TWO NIGHTS...I CANNOT RULE OUT A FEW SHRA DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS AND WILL MAINTAIN SLGT CHC AFTER MIDNIGHT. WITH TROPICAL AIRMASS IN PLACE...WILL GO PERSISTENCE WITH LOWS (GENERALLY 72-75F). THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...MORE OF THE SAME. REMNANT LOW OF DENNIS WILL CONTINUE TO FEED MID LEVEL ENERGY TOWARD THE AREA. A MID LEVEL SHEAR AXIS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE AND THE AFOREMENTIONED SFC BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE TO ACT AS A FOCUS MECHANISM FOR SCT TO NUMEROUS SHRA/TSRA. PWS IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES...SFC DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW/MID 70S AND A BIT OF DAYTIME HEATING WILL RESULT IN SBCAPES AGAIN IN EXCESS OF 3000 J/KG. WILL FOCUS HIGHER COVERAGE A TOUCH FURTHER SOUTH THAN TODAY...BUT ALL AREAS WILL BE PRONE TO ACTIVITY. SHRA/TSRA EXPECTED TO BLOSSOM W/O MUCH INHIBITION DURING THE LATE MORNING. WITH 500MB TEMPS REMAINING AROUND -5C AND MEAGER SHEAR AND 700/500MB LAPSE RATES...SEVERE STORM POTENTIAL ONLY ISOLATED AT BEST. WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION SCT STRONG IN THE HWO...WITH WIND GUSTS THE PRIMARY RISK. WITH SUCH A MOIST AIRMASS IN PLACE... ISOLATED HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ALSO BE AN ISSUE. COVERAGE OF SHRA/TSRA WILL DECREASE TOMORROW EVENING AND SET UP ANOTHER WARM/MUGGY NIGHT. IN THE EXTENDED...CONTINUITY IN THE FORECAST LOOKS GOOD. MAV AND MEX GUIDANCE HAS COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH OUR THINKING OVER THE PAST 3 TO 4 DAYS AND IS PROVIDING DECENT CONFIDENCE IN THE FORECAST THROUGH MONDAY. WITH THAT ONCE AGAIN NO MAJOR CHANGES MADE TO THE FORECAST LET ALONE ANY REAL TWEAKS. FRI LOOKS A LOT LIKE A CONTINUATION OF THURSDAY. THE BNDRY WILL STILL BE SITUATED WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE CWA. THE ATMOSPHERE WILL BE MORE THAN SUFFICIENTLY MOIST WITH PWS ABV 2. THERE IS SOME INSTABILITY IN PLACE WITH LIS AROUND -4 AND ML CAPE ATA 1500. LAPSE RATES WILL BE MARGINAL BUT ONCE AGAIN UPPER LEVEL INFLUENCES WILL HELP SHRA AND TSRA BECOME NUMEROUS ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTH AS THE SEABREEZE SHOULD PUSH WELL INTO THE CWA. THIS WILL ALSO BE THE CASE SATURDAY AS STHRLY WINDS FROM THE SFC TO H5 SHOULD REALLY HELP THE SEABREEZE PUSH NORTH. OVERALL GOING TO MAKE VERY LITTLE MODIFICATION TO THE FORECAST AS MAV HAS NOW GONE EVEN HIGHER FOR FRI AND IS ABV OUR CURRENT FORECAST FOR THE FIRST TIME. AS FOR SAT STAYED JUST SLIGHTLY ABV THE MEX GUIDANCE ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTH WHERE THE SEABREEZE WILL BE ACTIVE. ALSO MENTIONED BY PREVIOUS FORECASTER WITH ALL THE RAIN AND CLOUD COVER TEMPS WILL STRUGGLE TO REACH 90 ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA FRI WITH A BETTER CHANCE ON SAT. BERMUDA HIGH AND UPPER RIDGE STILL PROGGED TO BUILD WEST OVER THE SESTRN CONUS AND THIS WILL BEGIN TO SUPPRESS THE CONVECTION BEGINNING LATE SUN AND INTO THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK. LIKE WE HAVE SAID IN THE PREVIOUS FORECASTS THIS WILL ALSO TREND TO WARMER HIGHS ACROSS THE AREA. MOISTURE WILL NOT BE A PROBLEM BUT WITH THE RIDGE BUILDING IN SHRA AND TSRA WILL BE MORE OF THE ISOLATED MANNER AND LIKELY CONTAINED TO THE SOUTH WHERE SOME SEABREEZE INFLUENCE HELPS. AS OF RIGHT NOW WILL KEEP EMILY AS A NON-FACTOR IN THE WEATHER UNTIL BETTER GUIDANCE COMES IN. MDLS DUE AGREE WITH TRUCKING THIS SYSTEM DUE WEST INTO THE YUCATAN THEN BACK OUT OVER THE BAY OF CAMPECHE AND BACK INTO MEXICO BUT THEY ARE TRYING TO COME A LITTLE FURTHER NORTH. AS THE RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE REGION EMILY WILL HAVE A HARD TIME TURNING NORTH BUT THIS WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED TO SEE IF THE RIDGE ACTUALLY BUILDS THIS FAR WEST AND IF IT IS AS STRONG AS THE MDLS ARE SHOWING. /BANNAN/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
