AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
450 AM CDT SUN MAR 27 2011

.DISCUSSION...SHORT TERM(TODAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)...CONTINUED
TRICKY FORECAST OVER NEXT 48 HOURS AS POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXISTS ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL AND SERN
PORTIONS OF THE ARKLAMISS BY EARLY EVENING. FOCUS WILL THEN TURN TO
INCREASING RAIN CHANCES ACROSS NORTHERN LOCATIONS LATE TONIGHT AND
EARLY MONDAY.

EARLIER ROBUST CONVECTION ACROSS HIGHWAY 82 CORRIDOR HAS DIMINISHED
THIS EARLY SUNDAY MORNING AS DEPARTING SURFACE LOW SHIFTS EAST.
ATTENDANT SFC COLD FRONT IS CURRENTLY PUSHING SOUTH ACROSS MUCH OF
THE ARKLAMISS BUT HAS SLOWED IN FORWARD PROGRESS OVER THE PAST HOUR
OR SO. SCATTERED ELEVATED SHOWERS PERSIST ACROSS NORTH-CENTRAL AND
CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE ARKLAMISS WITH ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
CONTINUING ACROSS NORTHERN AL AND BACK ACROSS NORTH-CENTRAL LA. THIS
ACTIVITY IS ORIENTED ALONG THE EML THAT PROVIDED A FOCUS FOR EARLIER
SEVERE STORMS SATURDAY. WITH FORWARD PROGRESSION OF SHALLOW COLD
FRONT SLOWING ACROSS THE SOUTH-CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN ARKLAMISS REGION
AND PRESENCE OF EML WITH SUBSTANTIAL LAPSE RATES/>7 C/KM/...STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM RISK APPEARS TO EXIST FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING ACROSS THESE LOCATIONS.

THE WEAK SFC LOW FROM LAST NIGHT WITH LITTLE MID/UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT
RESULTED IN A SHALLOW COLD FRONT AS H85-H7 WIND FLOW CONTINUES TO BE
OUT OF THE WSW PER KDGX VAD WIND PROFILE AND NWP GUIDANCE. AS EML
LOOKS TO REMAIN IN PLACE ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 20...LOW-LVL
/925-850MB/ WIND FLOW WILL BACK IN RESPONSE TO APPROACHING STRONGER
H5 S/WV ACROSS SOUTHERN PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON. AS BACKING OF SWLY
LOW-LVL FLOW IS COUPLED WITH ISENTROPIC LIFT INTO THE H8-H9 LAYER
WITH AVAILABLE ELEVATED INSTABILITY OF 500-1000 J/KG THIS
AFTERNOON...ISOLATED STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WITH PEA TO DIME SIZED
HAIL COULD OCCUR ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL ARKLAMISS LOCATIONS. FARTHER
SOUTH ACROSS HIGHWAY 84 CORRIDOR...BUFR SOUNDINGS INDICATE SOME
CONVECTION COULD BE SURFACE BASED WITH LITTLE SFC/MLCINH IN PRESENCE
OF SBCAPE VALUES ~1000-1500 J/KG. WITH WEAK LOW-LEVEL FLOW AND
MOISTURE FEED...STRONG TO SEVERE PULSE-TYPE TO SEMI-DISCRETE
ORGANIZED THUNDERSTORMS UNDER ~50 KT 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR COULD BE
CAPABLE OF HAIL TO SIZE OF QUARTERS AND DAMAGING WINDS TO 60MPH
ALONG EXTREME SOUTHEASTERN LOCATIONS THIS AFTERNOON. WILL MAKE
MENTION OF HAZARDS IN HWO. HAVE INCREASED MAV POPS ACROSS CENTRAL
AND SOUTHERN LOCATIONS FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. MAV POPS WERE
ALSO INCREASED ACROSS NORTHERN LOCATIONS AS S/WV SWINGS BY TO THE
NORTH. MAV TEMPS WERE RAISED SLIGHTLY ON MONDAY GIVEN POSSIBLE
CLEARING OF CLOUDS JUST AFTER SUNRISE OPPOSED TO LATE MORNING
ADVERTISED BY MAV MOS.

27/0Z OPS GFS HAS COME MORE IN LINE WITH 27/0Z AND PREVIOUS ECMWF
RUNS AS WELL AS 27/0Z GEM AND NAM WITH A QUICK-HITTING ROUND OF
ELEVATED SHOWERS ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE
ARKLAMISS TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY MONDAY MORNING. QPF WILL REMAIN
GENERALLY LIGHT WITH LESS THAN ONE QUARTER QPF ACROSS NORTHERN
LOCATIONS OWNING TO MODEST ASCENT...LIMITED MOISTURE FEED...AND
RELATIVELY DRY AIRMASS IS PLACE ACROSS THE NORTH. THIS SHORTWAVE
WILL DRIVE MUCH DRIER AIR IN ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS REGION MID-DAY
MONDAY AS SKIES WILL BECOME PARTLY CLOUDY FROM WEST TO EAST BY
MONDAY NIGHT BEFORE SOUTHERLY RETURN FLOW AND CLOUDS REBUILD IN BY
TUESDAY MORNING AHEAD OF THE NEXT WEATHER MAKER. /ALLEN/

LONG TERM(TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)...ACTIVE PATTERN PERSISTS FOR THE
MEDIUM RANGE WITH AT LEAST TWO SIGNIFICANT SHORTWAVES DROPPING INTO
THE SRN PLAINS FROM THE NORTHWEST AND HELPING TO FIRST DEEPEN A
SURFACE LOW OVER THE LOWER MS VALLEY FOR TUESDAY NIGHT...AND THEN OVER
SRN GA THURSDAY MORNING. PWATS OF NEAR 1 INCH ALONG THE COAST EARLY
TUESDAY SURGE BACK NWD AND INCREASE TO 1.6 INCHES OVER MOST OF OUR
CWFA BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. INCREASING WAA AHEAD OF THE FIRST SYSTEM
WILL BRING WIDESPREAD RAIN SHOWERS TO OUR WRN ZONES LATER TUESDAY...
AND SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS TSRA WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS TUESDAY
NIGHT/EARLY WEDNESDAY. THE GFS ENSEMBLE MEAN AND 00Z ECMWF HAVE A
LITTLE BETTER AGREEMENT IN TIMING THIS SYSTEM WHICH FEATURES COLD
FRONTOGENESIS ACROSS OUR CWFA LATE TUESDAY NIGHT. THERE ARE RATHER
MEAGER INDICATIONS OF POTENTIAL SEVERE HAIL-PRODUCERS STARTING LATE
TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THE NIGHT TIME HOURS...REFER TO SPC DAY 3
CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK. WILL INCLUDE A MENTION OF LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN FOR
CENTRAL AND SRN PORTIONS DURING TUESDAY NIGHT WHERE 2 TO 3 INCHES ARE
QUITE POSSIBLE BEFORE MIDDAY ON WEDNESDAY.

WHILE THE RAINS SHOULD TAPER OFF W TO E WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...THE
SECOND AND STRONGER IMPULSE HEADS OUR WAY THURSDAY MORNING WITH MORE
SHOWER CHANCES AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE STARTS TO FINALLY BUILD OVER
OUR REGION. GFS ENSEMBLE MEANS SHOW AN OPEN TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE
REGION AS DOES THE ECMWF THURSDAY EVENING. CONSIDERING THE RECENT
PROGRESSIVE NATURE OF THE WEATHER PATTERN WL LEAN TOWARD THESE MORE
CONSISTENT SOLUTION SCENARIOS. THIS TIMING BRINGS DRIER AIR IN FOR
THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY AS THE NEXT UPSTREAM SYSTEM SHOULD
HOLD OFF UNTIL ABOUT NEXT SUNDAY NIGHT OR MONDAY.

DUE TO CLOUDS AND PRECIP CHANCES WEDNESDAY...HAVE STAYED WITH OUR
CONTINUITY FOR MAX TEMPS OF 65-72F AS 80F SEEMS HIGHLY UNLIKELY. THE
ENSEMBLE TEMPERATURE SPREADS RANGE FROM 4-5 STANDARD DEVIATIONS FROM
TUESDAY NIGHT RIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY LENDING TOWARD A LOWER CONFIDENCE
FORECAST THAN USUAL. HEADING INTO NEXT WEEKEND...WE SHOULD SEE A
RATHER COOL THURSDAY/FRIDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 60S FOLLOWED BY MILDER
70S FOR SATURDAY. OTHERWISE...A BLEND OF MOSTLY MEN/MEX DATA USED FOR
THE TEMPS AND POPS. /40/

&&

.AVIATION...IFR TO LOW MVFR CIGS WITH REDUCED VISIBILITIES ARE
PREVAILING ACROSS ALL TAF SITES THIS MORNING AS COLD FRONT SLOWLY
PROGRESSES SOUTHWARD TOWARD HIGHWAY 84 CORRIDOR. WINDS ARE NORTH AT
THE SURFACE AT ALL SITES EXCEPT KHBG...WITH A QUICK CHANGE TO W OR
WSW AT 2-3 KFT...RESULTING IN POSSIBLE TURBULENCE. CIGS WILL
SLOWLY LIFT TO MVFR CONDITIONS ACROSS ALL TAF SITES BY LATE MORNING.
COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH KHBG BY 27/15Z BUT COULD STALL IN VICINITY
AND THEN RETREAT NORTHWARD AS WINDS BACK AROUND TO SWLY. ISOLATED
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE POSSIBLE ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL
AND SOUTHEASTERN LOCATIONS THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. HAIL TO
THE SIZE OF QUARTERS AND DAMAGING WINDS UP TO 60 MPH WILL BE PRIMARY
RISKS. CEILINGS MAY BECOME VFR FOR A SHORT TIME THIS AFTERNOON BEFORE
LOWER CEILINGS BUILD BACK IN WITH RAIN PIVOTING ACROSS NORTHERN AND
CENTRAL AREAS TONIGHT AND EARLY MONDAY./ALLEN/
