212 FXUS64 KJAN 270558 AAA AFDJAN Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Jackson MS 1258 AM CDT Fri Jun 27 2025 ...New AVIATION... .MESOSCALE UPDATE... Issued at 931 PM CDT Thu Jun 26 2025 Rest of tonight... A quiet night is on tap across the region. Upper air analysis indicate ridge flattening across the Gulf Coast states. Light return flow will continue to continue into the overnight hours. Convection has waned and was mostly focused westward of the earlier remnant cold pool west of Interstate 55 this afternoon to evening. Light southerly sfc flow and elevated boundary layer moisture will lead to another night of seasonably warm lows. Some patchy ground fog can`t be ruled out near daybreak in Hwy 45 to Interstate 59 corridors. Updates are out. /DC/ && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1229 PM CDT Thu Jun 26 2025 Rest of Today through next Wednesday...A mix of clouds and sun this afternoon as a 591mb high pressure over the region continues to move towards the northeast, allowing for a mid-lvl low to migrate towards the west along the periphery of the ridge. Cloud cover from morning convection will provide some relief from the afternoon heat and humidity; however; heat indices could still reach greater the 105 degrees in areas receiving more sun than clouds. As a result, the heat advisory will continue through this evening. As the low progress westward, afternoon heating with an unstable airmass in place is expected to promote some organized convected this afternoon and evening. A "Marginal" (1 out of 5) risk for severe storms is in place across the CWA and damaging winds are the primary hazard of concern. Heading into the weekend: the ridge is expected to start flatten over the southeast CONUS and a longwave trough will settle across the northern CONUS. Afternoon showers/t-storm chances will continue through the extended period as a frontal boundary is expected to stall north of the area and the airmass remains unstable. In addition to the stalled boundary, northwest flow may usher in some shortwave disturbances throughout the week. Widespread rain chances are expected (35-65% PoPs with best PoP chances east of I-55). Temperatures aren`t expected to be as oppressive as dewpoint ranges in the lower 70s and highs reaching the lower 90s. Depending on cloud cover/rainfall received, heat indices could reach 105 degrees or greater. /SW/ && .AVIATION...
