Synopsis for pascagoula to atchafalaya river out 60 nm -
a cold front is slowly moving southward through the outer waters. Thunderstorms along this boundary will bring the threat of locally strong winds, large hail, and higher seas. High pressure builds in later this morning causing all this activity to move south and east. Return flow will spread across the northern gulf for the start of the new work week and reamin through the week.

DISCUSSION
Issued at 421 AM CDT Sun May 19 2024

Today and Tonight:

Patchy, dense fog development will be possible in eastern portions of the CWA during early morning hours but is expected to dissipate after sunrise. A quiet, dry, and sunny day is expected across the ArkLaMiss region as an upper/mid level ridge migrate towards the area from the southwest. High temperatures are expected to be in the upper 80s to near 90 degrees to help make for a very warm day.
Clear skies and quiet conditions will continue into the evening with overnight temperatures ranging from the lower 60s to near 70 degrees in the Delta region. Fog development may be possible towards the southern area closer to daybreak on Monday. /SW/

Monday through Saturday: Much of the long range forecast for our area will feature rather hot days, with dry weather early in the week giving way to the potential for stormier conditions by mid to late week. Anticyclonic flow associated with a subtropical ridge extending from Mexico into the Southern Plains will have the most influence on our weather, and with H850 temperatures approaching 20 deg C in the global models, it wouldn't be surprising to see a few locations reach the mid 90s at some point.
Fortunately, the boundary layer RH is not expected to reciprocate, and this should help keep heat stress from becoming a big concern.

As we go into mid/late week, a significant shortwave trough moving across the Plains/MS Valley is expected to suppress the ridge some and allow a cold front to push into our region. This will likely increase thunderstorm chances for northwest/northern portions of the forecast area, where increased mid level flow could help to organize potential storms resulting in increased potential for strong to severe storms. As of now, the severe threat only grazes the upper ArkLaMiss region, and it is likely that the anticyclone will delay storm impacts for most of the area, so will continue to hold off on messaging severe weather in the graphics until confidence increases. /EC/
