Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jackson MS 214 PM CDT Wed Jun 8 2022 .DISCUSSION... Tonight and Thursday...Despite the overall global and high-res model run-to-run inconsistencies, a weak boundary to the north has sagged a bit further south today. This has brought better chances for showers and storms to mainly northern portions of the forecast area this afternoon and evening. Along with this chance, the chance that an MCS or two could affect at least a portion of the forecast area late this afternoon into this evening has increased. While one such MCS continues to move east through the Mid-South region, it's dissipated quite a bit along the way. However, a more potent disturbance, currently tracking east through the ArkLaTex this afternoon, could very well affect the CWA late today into tonight if it holds together. Again, high-res models aren't exactly handling this feature well, let alone this entire setup, at the moment. Regardless, attention will certainly continue to be paid upstream through the period for any MCS develop and it's potential affects on the CWA. With sufficient instability, modest deep-layer speed shear, and a little bit of mid-level lapse rate to work with, the potential for some severe storms still exists, particularly north of the Interstate 20 corridor, for the remainder of this afternoon and into this evening. Damaging winds of 60 mph remains the primary concern with storms, with quarter size hail also being possible. The boundary will sag deeper into the CWA overnight and into Thursday. Isolated severe storms could continue to be possible across mainly western and southern portions of the CWA during this time and along the boundary. Damaging wind gusts up to 60 mph will again be the primary concern with the most intense storms, but hail up to the size of quarters will also be possible. Some slightly drier air will filter into the CWA behind the boundary. However, warm conditions will still exist with highs ranging from the upper 80s north to middle 90s south. /19/ Thursday night through Tuesday: Our CWA wl remain on the eastern periphery of a large mid level high through the end of the week that will build over the southern Plains back over the Four Corners region. This high will then shift east becoming centered over our CWA Monday. This will result in northwest flow aloft across our region with several embedded shortwaves that will serve to enhance convection. As the mid level highs shifts east toward our region, heat will build up over the region Sunday through Tuesday. Come Thursday evening a stalled frontal boundary is expected to be along our southern most zones. This boundary will prolong rain chances into the evening along the Highway 84 corridor but the chance for rain will diminish with the loss of daytime heating. There will likely be a lull in convection over our CWA by late evening but rain chances will increase again from the northwest after midnight. A shortwave topping the ridge to our west is expected to dive southeast toward our CWA and help develop an MCS that is expected to drop across at least across the northeast portions of our CWA during the day Friday. This MCS wl have the potential to produce damaging wind gusts and large hail. Locally heavy rainfall can also be expected. Depending on the actual track of the MCS and its outflow, our southwest may see peak heat index values into the lower 100s. As the MCS shifts east of Mississippi Friday evening a stalled boundary will likely be left across the southern portions our our CWA. This boundary will serve to focus convection during prime heating Saturday. With the greatest chance for pops across the south Saturday temperatures will top out several degrees cooler and help mitigate heat stress related concerns. The mid level ridge will begin making its presence felt in our region Sunday. This will lead to lower rain chances confined to our south Sunday which are expected to end by Sunday evening. This will also allow heat and humidity to build back across the region Sunday through Tuesday. High temperatures in the west look to top out in the middle 90s Sunday and then middle 90s areawide Monday and Tuesday. If dew points can maintain lower 70s and not mix down into the upper 60s during the heat of the afternoon, peak heat index values would approach 105F in some locations. /22/ && .AVIATION... 18Z TAF discussion: VFR flight categories will prevail at most TAF sites through the afternoon hours. However, increasing convection across the area this afternoon into this evening, with some storms possibly severe and capable of producing damaging winds of 52 knots and quarter size hail, will result in brief periods of MVFR/IFR ceilings and/or visibilities at sites where convection is observed, namely at KGLH, KGWO, and KGTR. Despite some scattered convection remaining possible through the overnight hours, developing low stratus could again plague the majority of the region with MVFR/IFR ceilings by day break Thursday. Winds this afternoon will remain southwesterly between 4-9 knots, except near convection. Then decreasing to around 2-4 knots overnight. /19/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
