Thunderstorms produced high winds and damage in southeast Mississippi.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Mobile, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 24, 5:29 PM CST, 1 hour 46 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL 629 PM CDT FRI JUL 24 2015 .AVIATION... 25.00Z TAF CYCLE...THUNDERSTORMS AND RESIDUAL SHOWERS SHOULD CLEAR ALL TAF SITES TO THE SOUTH BY OR SHORTLY AFTER 00Z. EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS FOR THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH ONLY A SMALL CHANCE OF LOCALIZED REDUCED VISIBILITY FROM FOG IN AREAS THAT RECEIVED HEAVY RAIN THIS AFTERNOON...NOT EXPECTING THIS TO BE WIDESPREAD OR PARTICULARLY DENSE SO WILL REFRAIN FROM INCLUDING IN THE FORECAST. ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS IS POSSIBLE TOMORROW AFTERNOON BUT COVERAGE IS EXPECTED TO BE LESS THAN THE LAST FEW DAYS. WINDS WILL BE GENERALLY BE FROM THE WEST BUT WILL TAKE ON A MORE NORTHERLY COMPONENT AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE DAY TOMORROW. 05/RR && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 429 PM CDT FRI JUL 24 2015/ SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT)...FOR TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY....SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED IN ADVANCE OF THE WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY SAGGING SOUTHWARD OVER NORTHERN AL. STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO PROPAGATE SOUTHWARD AND MOVE OUT OVER THE GULF WATERS THIS EVENING. BOUNDARY SHOULD MAKE IT TO NEAR THE COAST TONIGHT AND MAY WITH A NOCTURNAL PUSH OUT A LITTLE INTO THE NORTHERN GULF...EITHER WAY THOUGH EXPECT IT TO LAY ACROSS OUR COASTAL COUNTIES BY LATE SATURDAY MORNING. BOUNDARY SHOULD THEN SERVE AS A TRIGGER FOR CONVECTION ALONG THE COAST WHILE INTERIOR SECTIONS SHOULD REMAIN PRIMARILY DRY. BIGGEST THREAT FROM THE STORMS WILL REMAIN LIGHTNING...POTENTIAL DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WIND GUSTS 40 TO 60 MPH AND BRIEF HEAVY DOWNPOURS CAUSING HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS AND MINOR FLOODING ALONG POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO TREND WARMER THAN NORMAL WITH HEAT INDICES RANGING FROM THE LOW HUNDREDS NEAR THE COAST TO MID HUNDREDS FURTHER INLAND. /08 JW SATURDAY NIGHT...THE SHORTWAVE ENERGY CAUSING THE CURRENT ENERGY PUSHES SOUTH OF THE GULF COAST AND INTO AN UPPER TROUGH OVER FL...PUSHING THE BOUNDARY/SURFACE TROUGH WELL SOUTH OF THE NORTHERN GULF COAST. COMBINED WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE MOVING SOUTH OVER THE CAROLINAS...A NORTHEASTERLY FLOW SETS UP...BRINGING DRIER AIR IN OVER THE FA...AND SHIFTING THE RAIN AXIS SOUTH OF THE GULF COAST. THE AIRMASS IS NOT THAT MUCH COOLER...SO AM EXPECTING TEMPS TO BE ABOUT THE SAME AS TONIGHT...ABOVE SEASONAL. SUNDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...A STRONG UPPER SYSTEM DIVING SOUTH OVER THE NORTHWESTERN CONUS PUSHES THE UPPER HIGH OVER THE PLAINS EAST A BIT...CLOSER TO THE LOWER MISS RIVER VALLEY. GUIDANCE IS CONSISTENT IN DEVELOPING A SURFACE LOW/CIRCULATION ON THE BOUNDARY...BUT VARYING WHERE. EITHER WAY...THE FA REMAINS UNDER DRIER NORTHEAST TO EASTERLY FLOW. FOR DAYTIME HIGHS SUNDAY...AM EXPECTING AROUND THE SAME SUNDAY AS THE PREVIOUS DAY...BUT AM NOT EXPECTING ANY RAIN. WITH THE BIT DRIER AIR...HEAT INDICES ARE EXPECTED TO BE A BIT LESS...RISING TO THE 100 TO 102 RANGE. SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH THE DRIER AIR IN PLACE...OVERNIGHT TEMPS AWAY FROM THE COAST ARE EXPECTED TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY COOLER...WITH LOWER 70S EXPECTED. LONG TERM...(MONDAY ON)...MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...THE NORTHWESTERN CONUS SYSTEM PUSHES EAST...WHILE ANOTHER UPPER LOW DEEPENS OVER EASTERN CA. THE UPPER HIGH OVER THE PLAINS GETS SHOVED AROUND...BUT REMAINS PRETTY MUCH ENTRENCHED OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. THE DRIER AIRMASS THAT HAS MOVED OVER THE FA GETS MOISTENED UP BY ATLANTIC MOISTURE BEING PUSHED OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES AND ULTIMATELY...THE FA BY THE EASTERLY FLOW AROUND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHEASTERN CONUS. DAYTIME HIGH REMAIN PRETTY MUCH IN THE MID 90S...PLUS OR MINUS...BUT WITH MOISTURE LEVELS CREEPING UP... OVERNIGHT LOWS CREEP UP BACK INTO THE MID 70S OVER MUCH OF THE FA. WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...GUIDANCE IS ADVERTISING THE PREVIOUS NORTHWESTERN CONUS UPPER SYSTEM MOVING OVER THE GREAT LAKES...THEN NEW ENGLAND...PUSHING THE PLAINS UPPER HIGH WEST...TO OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST. THIS ALLOWS AN UPPER TROUGH THAT HAS BEEN MEANDERING AROUND OF FL TO SHIFT WEST...INCREASING THE CHANCE OF RAIN THROUGH THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK. WITH THE INCREASING RAIN CHANCES AND THE UPPER HIGH NO LONGER AN INFLUENCE FOR TEMPS...AM EXPECTING TEMPS TO MODERATE DOWN TO SEASONABLY WARM LEVELS OVER WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FA...AROUND TO A BIT BELOW EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FA. MARINE...A FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE NORTH WILL GENERATE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS THAT WILL MOVE SOUTHWARD OVER OUR COASTAL WATERS AND OVER THE NORTHERN GULF THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SOME OF THESE STORMS WILL BECOME STRONG AND MAY PRODUCE WIND GUSTS OF OVER 35 KNOTS. OTHERWISE...A MODERATE TO STRONG WEST TO NORTHWEST FETCH WILL PERSIST THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. SMALL CRAFT SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION. FOLLOWING FRONTAL PASSAGE...A WEAK PRESSURE PATTERN SETS UP ON SUNDAY AND CONTINUES INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...BRINGING LIGHT WINDS AND SMALL SEAS. /08 JW && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
