AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS 325 PM CDT FRI JUN 23 2006 .DISCUSSION...BROAD MOISTURE CONVERGENCE AXIS HAS BECOME ESTABLISHED FROM NE LA TO SE MS WITH AID FROM REMNANT OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM THIS MORNINGS CONVECTION. SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY INCREASED IN THIS ZONE AND SCATTERED COVERAGE SHOULD SUFFICE FOR MUCH OF THE AREA FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING. THE EXCEPTION APPEARS TO BE SOUTHWEST MS/ERN LA WHERE ANTICYCLONIC FLOW IS KEEPING A LID ON MOST CONVECTION AT THIS POINT. STEEP LAPSE RATES CONTINUE TO SUPPORT ISOLATED SEVERE TSTMS...BUT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TRYING TO PINPOINT STORM EVOLUTION GIVE ERRATIC BOUNDARY NATURE AND LITTLE HELP FROM MODEL GUIDANCE. COMPLICATING MATTERS IS WEAK SHORTWAVE ENERGY PUSHING EAST ACROSS THE OZARKS AND TRIGGERING SHOWER/TSTMS OVER MUCH OF AR THIS AFTN. HAVE BOOSTED POPS ABOVE GUIDANCE NRN COUNTIES THIS EVNG OUT OF RESPECT FOR THIS ACTIVITY GIVEN THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE STORMS WILL ORGANIZE AND MAINTAIN SOME INTEGRITY EVEN AFTER SUNSET. THE SHEAR AXIS WILL SETTLE SOUTHWARD INTO THE FORECAST AREA SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT...AND MORE SCATTERED SHOWER/TSTM ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP. IT DOESNT APPEAR THAT LAPSE RATES WILL BE QUITE AS IMPRESSIVE WITH 500MB TEMPS FORECAST TO INCREASE TO -7 DEG C...AND SFC TEMPS NOT EXPECTED TO BE QUITE AS HOT. STILL EXPECT A FEW STRONG THUNDERSTORMS AT LEAST GIVEN THE PRESENCE OF THE SHEAR AXIS...AND WILL GO AHEAD AND MENTION IN THE HWO. /EC/ THE UPPER TROUGH REMAINS PERCHED OVER THE REGION THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD. MODELS ARE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT THAT DECENT MOISTURE WILL HANG IN OVER SOUTHEAST ZONES THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON SO WILL KEEP SLIGHT CHANCE OF CONVECTION THAT AREA SUNDAY BUT CONDITIONS DRY RAPIDLY FOR FAIR WEATHER THROUGH MIDWEEK. WITH NLY FLOW AT LOWER LEVELS THROUGH WEDNESDAY AND A GENERALLY DRY AIR MASS IN PLACE...THE PRIMARY FORECAST ISSUE FOR THAT TIME PERIOD WILL BE TEMPERATURES. A COOLER SPELL IS IN STORE FOR THE ARKLAMISS AS DRIER AIR STREAMS IN. DEWPOINTS FORECAST AROUND 50 DEGREES IN MOST AREAS WEST OF THE MS RIVER MONDAY NIGHT BUT DO NOT EXPECT MAXIMUM RADIATIONAL COOLING AS SURFACE WIND WILL PERSIST AFTER DARK SUNDAY AND MONDAY. 925 MB WIND FORECAST FROM 20-30KTS MONDAY NIGHT. THE LOW LEVEL PRESSURE PATTERN BEGINS TO CHANGE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS WEAK REMNANTS OF THE SURFACE TROUGH LIFT NWD INTO THE AREA. THE LOW LEVEL FETCH BECOMES MORE SWLY THURSDAY INCREASING MOISTURE ACROSS THE AREA. WILL KEEP MENTION OF SLIGHT CHANCE POPS THURSDAY AFTERNOON DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF THE WEAK LOW LEVEL TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED REGION OF CONVERGENCE. WILL FOLLOW MOS POPS FOR NOW WITH SLIGHTLY HIGHER POPS SRN ZONES FOR FRIDAY AS MOISTURE CONTINUES TO POOL OVER THE AREA. /03/ && .AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD PREVAIL FOR MOST PART. AFTN/EVNG TSTM COVERAGE IS A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST...ALL AVIATION INTERESTS IN CENTRAL MS/NE LA/SE AR SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR AT LEAST ISOLATED TSTM COVERAGE THROUGH SATURDAY. PATCHY RADIATION FOG MAY BRING VSBYS DOWN TO MVFR LATE TONIGHT. /EC/ && JAN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MS...NONE. LA...NONE. AR...NONE. && SHORT TERM: EC LONG TERM: 03
