.UPDATE...NEAR TERM GRIDS REFINED FURTHER FOR ONGOING CONVECTION IN
WEST WHILE DROPPING POPS/WEATHER IN NE NEXT 1-3 HRS. REFRESHED
PRODUCTS FOR NEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR CENTRAL AND NORTH
ARKLAMISS THROUGH 4AM AND CANCELED OUT THOSE THAT EXPIRED AT 9PM.
SEE DISCUSSION BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS.

.DISCUSSION...

ENHANCED UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE COUPLED WITH A H5 PVA SPOKE
ATTENDANT TO S/WV IMPULSE AND/OR MCV MOVING ACROSS SOUTHERN AR THIS
EVENING IS COMBINING WITH ~2000 J/KG MLCAPE WHICH IS SUPPORTING
ROBUST CONVECTION NEAR THE MS RIVER AS OF 9PM. THESE INGREDIENTS
WILL AID STRONG/SEVERE STORM DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE EVENING AND
EARLY MONDAY MORNING AS THEY PUSH EAST ACROSS WEST AND NORTH CENTRAL
MS. MAIN HAZARDS WITH THESE STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS OF 60
MPH..HAIL TO THE SIZE OF GOLFBALLS AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING. WHILE
LOW-LVL SRH WILL BE INCREASING COINCIDENT WITH MCV IN DELTA NEXT 2-5
HOURS...BEST EFFECTIVE SRH NEAR 200 M2/S2 SHOULD STAY NORTH OF
REGION...NEGATING A TORNADO RISK. INSTABILITY AND THUS ROBUSTNESS OF
STORMS SHOULD WANE TOWARDS 4AM AS STORMS PUSH EAST TOWARDS HIGHWAY
45 CORRIDOR.

GRIDS HAVE BEEN UPDATED IN THE NEAR TERM REFINING TSTORM WORDING
AREA AND TIMING AS COMPLEX PROGRESSES EAST ALONG WITH UPDATED
PRODUCTS/GRAPHICS ALREADY OUT. /ALLEN/

&&

.AVIATION...TIMING THE STORM ACTIVITY WILL BE THE MAIN FOCUS FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT AS ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP. AS FOR
FLIGHT CONDITIONS...VFR CONDITIONS WILL EXIST FOR MUCH OF THE NIGHT
WITH SOME MVFR CEILINGS POSSIBLE FOR A FEW LOCATIONS AFTER 10-11Z.
THE ONLY OTHER RESTRICTIONS WILL OCCUR WHEN SITES ARE IMPACTED BY
STORMS. ADDITIONAL STORM ACTIVITY WILL BE POSSIBLE ON MONDAY BUT
TIMING THAT AT THIS TIME WILL BE VERY TOUGH. /CME/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 429 PM CDT SUN JUN 8 2014/

DISCUSSION...

TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY

ACTIVE PERIOD ONGOING AND EXPECTED THROUGH TUESDAY WITH PERIODS OF
STORM COMPLEXES EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH PORTIONS OF THE REGION.
DISCUSSION BELOW WILL ATTEMPT TO FINE TUNE TIMING AND HAZARDS.

SIGNIFICANT MID LEVEL RIDGING EROSION HAS OCCURRED DUE TO NUMEROUS
TRAVERSING S/WV IMPULSES ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS ALLOWING FOR A
MORE ACTIVE CONVECTIVE MCS PARADE FOR THE ARKLAMISS THROUGH TUESDAY.
TSTORMS FIRED IN NE ZONES OFF A RESIDUAL OUTFLOW BOUNDARY BUT HAVE
STRUGGLED TO MAINTAIN INTENSITY POSSIBLY OWING TO WEAKER MID TO UPPER
LEVEL FLOW AND RESIDUAL S/WV RIDGING AFFECTS. FEEL AREAS SOUTH OF
THIS BOUNDARY IN EAST MS WILL CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE PER LATEST HRRR.
ATTENTION THEN FOCUSES WESTWARD TOWARDS AR/LA WHERE A LINE OF
SHOWERS/STORMS S NEARING THE MS RIVER. ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY IS
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BEHIND THIS LINE WHEN SLIGHTLY GREATER H5 FLOW
OF 40 KT AND BETTER UPPER DIVERGENCE ALONG A PVA RIBBON SHOULD
SUPPORT THE ADDITIONAL TSTORM DEVELOPMENT LATE AFTN THROUGH EVENING
IN AR AND OVERSPREAD INTO MID AND NORTH MS. CONVERGENT/DIVERGENT
COUPLETS IN ENVIRONMENT OF INCREASING LOW LEVEL SHEAR /150-200 MS/S2
0-1 KM SRH/ AND MLCAPE >1000 J/KG SUGGESTS A STRONGER MASS SIGNAL
THEN DAYS PAST HAVE THUS INCREASED CONFIDENCE OF SOME STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS. DAMAGING WINDS AND HAIL TO SIZE OF GOLFBALLS COULD
OCCUR IN THE STRONGEST OF STORMS. HAVE PLACED ELEVATED WORDING IN
HWO/GRAPHICS FOR TONIGHT IN THE DELTA REGION.

FOR MONDAY...EXPECTING A LULL IN ACTIVITY DURING THE MORNING HOURS
AS TONIGHT'S TROUGH PULLS OFF TO THE NE. HOWEVER, INSTABILITY WILL
REBUILD ONCE AGAIN FOR ISO/SCT DIURNAL SHOWERS/STORMS TO DEVELOP
OVER THE REGION EARLY AFTN. HOWEVER...BY LATE AFTN INTO THE EVENING
ANOTHER S/WV TROUGH WILL EJECT OFF A LARGER PARENT TROUGH AND AID IN
INCREASED LOW-LVL SHEAR WITH MLCAPE 1500-2000 J/KG AND 27-28 C
VERTICAL TOTALS COINCIDENT WITH ANOTHER STRONG MASS SIGNAL AND THUS
LIKELY SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT OF AN ORGANIZED MCS FOR THE MS DELTA
REGION AND ACROSS THE 82 CORRIDOR. HAVE PLACED LIMITED RISK IN
HWO/GRAPHICS FOR THIS TIME PERIOD. HEAVY RAIN COULD ALSO OCCUR WITH
THIS EPISODE AND WILL NEED TO MONITOR FOR FLASH FLOOD POTENTIAL AS
GLOBAL MODELS SHOW 3-4 INCHES POSSIBLE IN NW DELTA THROUGH TUESDAY
NIGHT STARTING THIS TIME PERIOD.

TUESDAY'S WEATHER IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON CONVECTIVE EVOLUTION AND
TIMING FROM MONDAY NIGHT'S SYSTEM. IF THE SYSTEM STALLS/LINGERS IN
WEST...SOME STRONG/SEVERE COULD OCCUR IN EAST AS INSTABILITY
INCREASES THROUGH TUES AFTN WITH ADVANCEMENT OF AN ACTUAL FRONT TO
MOVE THROUGH BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. HAVE PLACED A LIMITED RISK IN
WEST AND PORTIONS OF EAST BUT THIS WILL LIKELY BE REFINED NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS. /ALLEN/
