Hail and Damaging Winds in Mississippi, June 8, 2005

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
955 AM CDT WED JUN 8 2005

.DISCUSSION...MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES HAVE PRETTY MUCH DOMINATED THE CWA.
THIS HAS ALLOWED TEMPS TO WARM UP NICELY WITH 80S ACROSS MANY AREAS
BEFORE 1430Z. THIS WORKS VERY WELL WITH THE GOING TEMP FORECAST AND
LOOKING AT THIS MORNINGS SNDG HIGH TEMP FORECAST OF NEAR 90 LOOKS TO
BE PRETTY DECENT. CURRENTLY ANOTHER MCV IS SPINNING OVER SWSTRN LA
AND THIS WILL SLOWLY PUSH TO THE ENE. THIS ALONG WITH A SEABREEZE IS
GOING TO BE THE FOCUS FOR TSRA DEVELOPMENT PROBABLY AROUND MIDDAY.
CURRENTLY LIKELY POPS IN THE FORECAST BUT IF THIS IS ANYTHING LIKE
SUNDAYS MCV THEN LIKELY IS TOO LOW. WILL KEEP LIKELY POPS IN BUT
BUMP UP TO ATLEAST 70% ACROSS MUCH OF THE SOUTH. QPF GRID WILL ALSO
NEED TO BE UPPED TO ACCOUNT FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN IN SOME AREAS.

&&

.AVIATION...NO MAJOR PROBLEMS SEEN EARLY THEN THIS AFTERNOON THERE
IS THE POSSIBILITY OF A FEW TSRA ACROSS THE AREA. MAIN TAF SITES OF
CONCERN THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE KHBG AND KGLH WHERE TSRA WILL LIKELY
BE AROUND THE AREA. VFR CONDITIONS WILL BE SEEN THROUGHOUT MOST OF
THE DAY IN ALL LOCALS BUT WHERE TSRA DO DEVELOPMENT...CEILINGS WILL
BECOME MVFR AT TIMES WITH CLOUD BASES AT OR JUST BELOW 3K. VISBIES
WILL ALSO DROP WITH ANY TSRA LIKELY ALSO FALLING TO MVFR NEAR 3 TO
4SM. THERE MAY BE A FEW STRONG TSRA DROPPING VISBIES TO IFR AROUND 1
TO 1 3/4 SM. THERE MAY BE A FEW WIND GUSTS APPROACHING 35 TO 40KTS
MAINLY AROUND KHBG AND LIMITED IF ANY SMALL HAIL.
