NWS Memphis, TN wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 28, 1:30 PM CST, 2 hours 8 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN 230 PM CDT FRI JUL 28 2006 TODAYS SHOWERS WERE HEAVIEST AND MOST WIDESPREAD IN NORTHERN COUNTIES OF THE MIDSOUTH. THIS WAS DUE TO PLENTIFUL MOISTURE IN THE PROFILE AND LIFT FROM A SHT WAVE THAT WAS OVER THE JBR TO PHT AREA. THE SHT WV STIRRED UP SHOWERS AND TRWS OVER NC AND NW AR THIS AFTERNOON AND THEY SHOULD COME INTO THE AREA TONIGHT... HOPEFULLY MORE OF THE RAIN WILL DROP FARTHER SOUTH. BUT...AS WITH LAST NIGHT AND TDA...MOST OF THE SIGNIFICANT RAIN SHOULD FALL IN NORTHERN COUNTIES. A RIDGE BUILDS TOWARD THE AREA FROM THE WEST SAT. THIS WILL SHIFT HIGHEST RAIN CHANCES TO THE EASTERN MIDSOUTH COUNTIES. SOAKING RAINS ARE NOT EXPECTED OVER MOST PLACES...WHILE THOSE DIRECTLY IN A TRWS PATH COULD GET MOD TO HVY RAIN. CLOUDINESS WILL KEEP MOST HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S TMR. A SHT WV WORKING DOWN THE EAST SIDE OF THE UPPER RIDGE WILL KEEP SHOWER CHANCES ALIVE SAT NIGHT. COVERAGE AND AMTS SHOULD BE MINOR AT THE VAST MAJORITY OF PLACES. THEN THE RIDGE WILL BE POSITIONED IN SUCH A WAY TO KEEP SHOWERS EAST OF THE RIVER SUN. MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...HOT MAINLY DRY WEATHER WILL PREVAIL. SHWRS THAT OCCUR SHOULD BE IN SOUTHEASTERN COUNTIES...BUT COVERAGE WILL BE SMALL. ANOTHER FRONT WILL BE CLOSE ENOUGH TO BRING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS THU IN N COUNTIES. PROBABILITY OF PRECIPITATION WL GO UP MORE FRI AS THE FRONT FLOPS SOUTH THROUGH THE AREA. && .MEG WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... AR...NONE. MO...NONE. MS...NONE. TN...NONE. && WER
