The episode as NWS JAN wrote it up.
A strong cold front and a broken line of strong to severe storms moved across central Mississippi during the afternoon of March 14. This system produced some scattered thunderstorm wind damage mainly in the form of downed trees and power lines. There was one lone tornado which occurred southeast of Brandon in Rankin County.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS 1115 AM CDT MON MAR 14 2011 .UPDATE...EXPECTING A RATHER COMPLEX WEATHER SITUATION TO UNFOLD ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS REGION THIS AFTERNOON. CURRENT AREA RADARS SHOWS A LOOSE LINE OF SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS RUNNING FROM NEAR HOUSTON NORTHEAST THROUGH CENTRAL LOUISIANA...THROUGH THE ARKLAMISS DELTA...AND INTO FAR NORTH-CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI. THE ACTUAL COLD FRONT IS LAGGING BEHIND THIS AREA OF CONVECTION BY SOME 50 TO 75 MILES TO THE NORTHWEST AND QUITE A FEW AVAILABLE HIRES MODELS SHOW SOME REDEVELOPMENT OF AT LEAST SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THIS BOUNDARY LATER TODAY INTO THIS EVENING. HOWEVER...VERY SHORT TERM MESOSCALE TRENDS REVEAL THAT PROBABLY THE BEST OVERALL RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL EVOLVE THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY THIS EVENING OVER THE SOUTHEAST THIRD OF MY ZONES (ROUGHLY ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF A BUDE...TO METRO JACKSON...TO MACON LINE). IT IS IN THIS AREA WHERE THE BEST LOW LEVEL SHEAR...INSTABILITY AND LIFT WILL BE TEMPORARILY JUXTAPOSED AS THE INITIAL LEADING BAND OF SHOWERS AND STORMS BECOMES ENTIRELY SURFACE-BASED. WE HAVE MODIFIED PRODUCTS TO HIGHLIGHT SEVERE POTENTIAL FOCUS IN THIS AREA...AND TO ALSO MENTION THE OUTSIDE CHANCE OF A FEW TORNADOES. LOW LEVEL SHEAR IS EXPECTED TO BE MARGINAL FOR TORNADOGENESIS...BUT NOT PROHIBITIVE BY ANY MEANS. DESPITE MENTIONING TORNADOES IN THAT SECTOR WITH THIS UPDATE...WE STILL ANTICIPATE THE MAIN RISK WILL BE DAMAGING WIND GUSTS OR LARGE HAIL. ELSEWHERE...THE CURRENT LINEAR CONVECTIVE MASS MOVING THROUGH MY NORTHWEST IS RATHER WEAK...BUT WILL LIKELY TRANSITION TO A STRONGER AND MORE SURFACE-BASED MODE IN THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO. TO THE NORTHWEST OF THIS CONVECTION WE STILL CANNOT DISCOUNT THE POTENTIAL FOR STORMS FIRING UP ALONG THE ACTUAL FRONT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND ANY SUCH ACTIVITY OF THAT SORT WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE A NON-ZERO SEVERE POTENTIAL. UPDATES TO THE FORECAST DONE AND SHIPPED. /BB/ && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 502 AM CDT MON MAR 14 2011/ TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT... THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WIND GUSTS HAS INCREASED A BIT...ESPECIALLY FOR THIS AFTN...BASED ON RECENT TREND UPWARD IN INSTABILITY FORECAST. THE DEEPENING LOW SHOWS UP WELL OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS EARLY THIS MORNING IN SATELLITE IMAGERY AND MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT IN SHOWING THE LOW CONTINUING TO DIG SOUTHEASTWARD WHILE THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT PUSHES EAST ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS IS CURRENTLY MOVING EAST ACROSS SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS AND NORTHEAST TEXAS...SLIGHTLY AHEAD OF THE SURFACE COLD FRONT. WHILE FORCING IS STRONG ALONG THE COLD FRONT...A STOUT MID LEVEL CAP AND DEEP ELEVATED MIXED LAYER IS NOTED IN THE PRE- FRONTAL AIRMASS. MUCH OF THE LIFT IS GOING INTO CAP EROSION...BUT EXPECT STRONG HEIGHT FALLS (~ 70M @H500) AND 40-50 KTS OF DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL MAINTAIN THE ORGANIZED CONVECTIVE LINE EASTWARD ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS. THE STRONG FORCING AND SOMEWHAT ORTHOGONAL UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR VECTORS WILL SUPPORT A BROKEN LINEAR CONVECTIVE SYSTEM AS INDICATED BY HIGH RES LOCAL AND NATL WRF/RUC GUIDANCE. STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL CONTRIBUTE TO AFTN MIXED LAYER CAPE IN THE 500-1000 J/KG WITH THE MOST RECENT HRRR MODEL INDICATING UP TO 1500 J/KG ALONG THE HWY 84 CORRIDOR. THE INCREASED CAPE FORECAST FOR THE AFTERNOON LEADS TO HIGHER CONFIDENCE FOR TSTMS ROOTED IN BOUNDARY LAYER AND WILL INCREASE MENTION OF WIND POTENTIAL IN THE HWO/HAZARD PRODUCTS. WHILE CAPPING AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL LIMIT PRE-FRONTAL DISCRETE CELLULAR DEVELOPMENT AND LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR WILL BE RELATIVELY WEAK...THERE MAY BE A SMALL WINDOW FOR TORNADO POTENTIAL IF CAPE IS STRONGER THAN CURRENTLY FORECAST. FOR NOW...WILL KEEP PRIMARY SVR WEATHER RISKS INDICATED AS SVR WIND GUSTS AND HAIL GIVEN VERY COLD TEMPERATURES ALOFT WITH RELATIVELY LOW WET BULB ZERO HEIGHTS. ALSO...SOME LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE EXPECTED...BUT AVERAGE QPF IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW AN INCH GIVEN PROGRESSIVE SYSTEM AND LIMITED DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER NOT MORE THAN AROUND 1.25 INCHES. PONDING OF WATER AND MINOR FLOODING OF LOW-LYING/POOR DRAINAGE AREAS WOULD BE EXPECTED IN THIS EVENT...BUT DO NOT EXPECT IT TO HAVE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON RIVER FLOODING. OTHERWISE...MUCH DRIER AND COOLER CONDITIONS WILL MOVE INTO THE ARKLAMISS AS WE GO INTO TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT. COLD ADVECTION AND ASSOC STRATUS WILL HOLD TEMPERATURES DOWN TUESDAY WITH MOST LOCATIONS ALONG AND NORTH OF I-20 NOT GETTING OUT OF THE 50S FOR HIGHS. /EC/ WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY... FOR THE MID TO LATE WEEK PERIOD A FLAT LONGWAVE RIDGE WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE REGION WITH A PROGRESSIVE STREAM OF WEAK EMBEDDED SHORT WAVES. MODELS DO TRY TO BRING SOME SPOTTY LIGHT RAIN...AND THERE ARE ALSO TIMING DIFFERENCES WITH THE MODELS AND ENSEMBLES WITH THE WEAK SHORT WAVE TROUGHS. HOWEVER BELIEVE THAT THE CAPPING WITH THE RIDGE WILL REDUCE OUR CHANCES OF LIGHT RAIN AND KEEP THE REGION GENERALLY DRY THROUGH THE PERIOD. TEMPERATURES WILL BE ON THE MILD SIDE AND ABOUT 5-10 DEG F ABOVE NORMAL ON DAILY HIGHS AND LOWS. AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES ARE CONCERNED...WENT WITH A BLEND OF MEX...GMOS AND ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE. CONCERNING POPS...CUT DOWN LOW END MOS GUIDANCE POPS FOR THE LIGHT RAIN/SPRINKLES DURING THE WEEK./17/ && .AVIATION...A MIX OF VFR/MVFR/IFR CEILINGS ARE BEING OBSERVED AT SITES ACROSS THE REGION THIS MORNING DUE TO VARYING HEIGHTS IN STRATUS. A LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACCOMPANYING A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA FROM LATE THIS MORNING INTO THIS EVENING. IN TERM OF TIMING...THIS ACTIVITY LOOKS TO IMPACT KGLH/KGWO BETWEEN 15-18Z...THEN KJAN/KGTR 18-21Z...AND KMEI/KHBG 21-00Z. EXPECT VFR/MVFR CONDITIONS WITH STRATOCUMULUS/CUMULUS AHEAD OF THE LINE...IFR CONDITIONS WITH THE STORMS...THEN MVFR/IFR RESTRICTIONS ARE EXPECTED WITH A POST-FRONTAL STRATUS DECK AS WE GO THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. /19/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
