.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 328 AM CST Sat Nov 23 2024

Today through tonight: Dry and seasonably cool conditions will
continue in the near term. Surface high pressure centered over the
forecast area today will begin to shift east of the area tonight.
After a frosty start to the day, sunny skies will allow
temperatures to climb well into the 60s this afternoon.
Temperatures tonight should not be quite as chilly, but patchy
areas of frost will be possible over eastern MS. /EC/

Sunday through Friday night: Surface high pressure will shift
east of the area on Sunday and with southerly flow, highs will
range from the upper 60s in the northeast to the mid 70s across
the southern portions of the area. Surface high pressure will
begin to weaken across the area on Monday, as a cold front
approaches the area. The winds will increase out of the southwest
out ahead of the front, with gusts from 20-25 mph across the
Delta. Expect even warmer temperatures on Monday, with highs
mostly in the 70s. The front will drop into the Delta during the
evening and move south across the area overnight. Moisture/
instability will be limited as the boundary moves across the area,
so expect mainly showers overnight.

Cool high pressure will once again build in behind the boundary on
Tuesday, as the showers move to the east and south. The boundary
will get hung up along the gulf coast Tuesday night, but will push
north back across the area on Wednesday. Both the GFS/ECMWF indicate
that another short wave/cold front will move across the area late
Wednesday night into Thursday. The global models have come into
better agreement with the timing/strength of this system. Currently
the timing for any potential severe would be early Thanksgiving day
into the afternoon hours. Given this system is still several days
away, will just continue to monitor for any potential severe risk.
High pressure and dry/cool conditions will build back in for Friday
into Friday night. /15/

VFR conditions will prevail through the TAF period with light
wind. Patchy fog cannot be ruled out early Saturday morning, but
confidence in this occurring at any TAF site is too low to
include in the forecast. /DL/
