AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
315 PM CDT WED JUL 19 2006

.DISCUSSION...ACTIVE AFTERNOON ONGOING AS ANTICIPATED. THE WORST OF
THE ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-20 AS BOUNDARIES
COLLIDE. THE REAL UNTAPPED AREA IS ALONG AND W OF THE MS RIVER AND
THAT AREA WILL GET THEIR TURN BEFORE THE NIGHT IS OUT AS BOUNDARIES
ARE HEADING THAT WAY ALONG WITH STORM PROPAGATION. HAIL...SIG WIND
GUSTS AND TONS OF LIGHTING WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE MAIN CONCERN
THROUGH 7-8 PM.

AS FAR HEAT ADV GOES...WILL JUST LET IT RIDE AS IT WILL EXPIRE AT 7
PM. THU WILL BE ANOTHER HOT DAY WITH SIMILAR TYPE HIGH TEMPS THAT WE
HAVE BEEN SEEING. THE BIG DIFFERENCE ON THU FROM TODAY IS THAT WE
SHOULD MIX DOWN SOME DRIER AIR AND THE SFC DEWPTS WILL FALL TO 67-69
DEGREES WHICH WILL KEEP HEAT INDEX VALUES BETWEEN 100-105. THIS WILL
FALL SHORT OF ADV CRITERIA AND WILL NOT EXTEND INTO THU.

ON THU...CONVECTION SHOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY LESS THAN TODAY AS THERE
WILL BE LESS INSTABILITY AND LESS FAVORABLE LIFT. TO START...MID
LEVEL TEMPS WILL BE A TAD WARMER AND THE UPPER JET WILL DIRECTLY
OVER THE CWA WHICH IS UNFAVORABLE. GUIDANCE POPS ARE RATHER LOW AND
WILL FOLLOW. THE NEXT ISSUE WILL BE HOW HOT WILL THE AREA GET ON
THU. FOLLOWING PERSISTENCE...WILL CONTINUE WITH THE N HALF 97-101
AND S HALF 95-98. AS MENTIONED ABOVE...LOWER RH VALUES WILL RESULT
IN SLIGHTLY LOWER HEAT INDEX VALUES AND NO ADV IS EXPECTED.  /CME/

FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...ON FRIDAY THE GFS/EURO AND THE NAM
INDICATE THAT THE RIDGE OVER THE PLAINS WILL BEGIN TO LOSE ITS GRIP
OVER THE ARKLAMISS AS IT BEGINS TO SHIFT WEST THE TROUGH SWINGING
DOWN OVER THE OHIO VALLEY DEEPENS OVER THE EAST. THE LATEST RUN OF
THE GFS IS A LITTLE FASTER WITH THE BOUNDARY ON SATURDAY...BUT THERE
COULD BE SOME FEEDBACK ISSUES. THE NAM IS A LITTLE SLOWER WITH THE
FRONT...BUT IT SHOULD PUSH THROUGH THE AREA DURING THE AFTERNOON
HOURS. PWATS WILL BE ABOVE 2 INCHES ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA AND WITH
THE FOCUS OF THE BOUNDARY...SATURDAY CONTINUES TO LOOK LIKE THE BEST
CHANCE OF WIDESPREAD RAINS WE HAVE HAD IN A WHILE. THE SEVERE
POTENTIAL FOR SATURDAY LOOKS A LITTLE LOWER THAN PREVIOUS RUNS WITH
SBCAPES OF LESS THAN A 1000 J/KG...MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES OF NEAR 5.5
C/KM AND A K-INDEX OF NEAR 35. WENT SLIGHTLY ABOVE POP GUIDANCE NEAR
THE I-2O CORRIDOR OVER CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI WERE THE BEST POTENTIAL
FOR RAIN LOOKS...BUT WENT WITH ELSEWHERE FOR SATURDAY. ALSO WENT
ABOVE GUIDANCE FOR THE SOUTH IN THE EVENING AS THE FRONT PUSHES
SOUTH INTO SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI DURING THE EVENING.

THE LATEST COUPLE OF GFS RUNS PUSH THE BOUNDARY TO THE SOUTH OF THE
AREA AND BRING IN MUCH DRYER AIR. BY SUNDAY A SURFACE HIGH/RIDGE
LOCATED OVER THE OHIO VALLEY WILL BEGIN TO BUILD ACROSS THE
ARKLAMISS AND THIS SHOULD HOLD THROUGH MONDAY. THE HIGH WILL SHIFT
TO THE EAST COAST ON TUESDAY AND ONCE AGAIN THE AREA WILL BEGIN TO
HAVE MORE SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW WITH PWATS ABOVE 2 INCHES ACROSS MOST
OF THE AREA.

WITH THE DRYER SOLUTION OF THE GFS WILL CUT BELOW 00Z GUIDANCE AND
GO WITH 12Z GUIDANCE WHICH IS MUCH DRYER FOR SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY
NIGHT...BUT WENT WITH 00Z GUIDANCE FROM TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY.

AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES GO GUIDANCE HAS PERSISTENTLY BEEN TO LOW FOR
HIGHS ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS AND THIS TREND LOOKS TO HAVE CONTINUED.
850MB TEMPERATURES LOOK TO REMAIN IN THE LOW 20S ACROSS THE AREA AND
THIS TRANSLATES TO THE UPPER 90S AT LEAST THROUGH FRIDAY...SO WILL
CONTINUE TO INCREASE WELL ABOVE GUIDANCE FOR AFTERNOON HIGHS THROUGH
FRIDAY. WILL STICK A LITTLE CLOSER TO GUIDANCE FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE PERIOD...BUT WILL STILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE A GENERAL 1 TO 2
DEGREES. /15/

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI...
NORTHEAST LOUISIANA...AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT...

...THUNDERSTORMS...
ANOTHER ROUND OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE TODAY WITH
A BIT MORE COVERAGE THAN YESTERDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN SCATTERED
SEVERE STORMS GENERALLY SOUTH AND WEST OF A LINE FROM VICKSBURG
TO RALEIGH TO COLLINS. ELSEWHERE...ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE. THE MAIN RISK FROM THESE STORMS WILL BE DEADLY
LIGHTING...SMALL HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS BETWEEN 60 AND 70
MPH. MOST OF THE ACTIVITY WILL OCCUR BETWEEN 1 AND 8 PM WITH THE
STORMS GENERALLY MOVING TO THE SOUTHWEST.

THE MAIN CULPRIT IN THIS INCREASED SEVERE ACTIVITY WILL BE THE
COMBINATION OF VERY HOT SURFACE CONDITIONS...INCREASING LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE AND COOLER TEMPERATURES ALOFT. THIS IS LEADING TO STEEP
LAPSE RATES AND HIGH LEVELS OF INSTABILITY. THE DISTURBANCE THAT
WILL HELP TRIGGER THE AFTERNOON STORMS WILL BE QUITE POTENT FOR
THIS TIME OF YEAR AND WILL BRING WITH IT FASTER WINDS ALOFT WHICH
WILL HELP ORGANIZE THE STORMS AND ALLOW THEM TO BECOME STRONGER
THAN USUAL.

...SEASONAL THREATS...
EXPECT HEAT INDEX VALUES TO RANGE FROM 103 TO 108 DEGREES TODAY
ACROSS THE ENTIRE ARKLAMISS REGION. DUE TO THIS...A HEAT ADVISORY
HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR WEDNESDAY.

A HEAT INDEX OF 105 IS THE VALUE WHERE THE BODY CAN BEGIN TO
SUCCUMB TO HEAT-RELATED HEALTH PROBLEMS.

PERSONS VENTURING OUTDOORS SHOULD TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID HEAT
RELATED ILLNESSES.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...

...DAYS TWO AND THREE...THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...
THE HOT CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH FRIDAY WITH THE AREA
REACHING 96 TO 100 DEGREES EACH DAY. PLENTY OF HEAT COMBINED WITH
THE RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL LEAD TO HEAT INDEX VALUES FROM 100
TO 107. IF THESE CONDITIONS HOLD...HEAT ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE
EXTENDED FOR SOME LOCATIONS UNTIL THE WEEKEND.

...DAYS FOUR THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...
A MOIST UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL BE IN PLACE SATURDAY AS A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY AND UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE PLOW SOUTH EASTWARD INTO THE
REGION SETTING OFF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. A FEW OF THESE STORMS
WILL BE ON THE STRONG TO SEVERE SIDE DEPENDING ON THE EXACT
TIMING AND POSITION OF THE FRONT. THE FRONT SHOULD SETTLE NEAR
THE GULF COAST BY EARLY NEXT WEEK. CHECK LATER FORECASTS FOR
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THE SEVERE POTENTIAL.

.SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT...
THE ACTIVATION OF STORM SPOTTERS...HAM RADIO OPERATORS...AND
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL IN SUPPORT OF SEVERE WEATHER
OPERATIONS WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED FOR TODAY OR AT SOME POINT ON
SATURDAY. OTHERWISE ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED THROUGH NEXT
WEDNESDAY.
