The switch to PHP 7.2 caused many pages that previously worked to quit working. I fixed many but I still depend on users to report ones I missed.

Expect low stratus to mix upward and diminish by mid morning. Shra tsra should then develop relatively quick later this morning into the early afternoon given significant heating of the moist air with the greatest threat for southern eastern ms sites. Shra tsra will diminish early this evening withVFR conditions prevailing otherwise. Ec Discussion Today through tonight: generally speaking, the weather pattern remains hot and humid today in association with the eastern periphery of a strong subtropical ridge, but there are some complexities that result in low confidence concerning the forecast details. A weak mid level perturbation associated with considerable mid high level cloudiness over NE ms early this morning is forecast to move slowly south across the region today, and this should help enhance diurnal convective precipitation chances per guidance consensus, especially as we go from late morning into the early afternoon for central eastern ms. Because of the greater potential for cloud cover and early convective development, heating may be discrupted enough to keep the forecast area below heat advisory threshold. Having said that, locations in the arklamiss delta region will have more Sun and heating potential, and this could put them at a greater risk for eventually needing a heat advisory. Otherwise, expect deep convection to end early |
this evening with mostly quiet and very humid conditions overnight. Ec Tuesday through Sunday night: the arklamiss will continue to remain under the eastern periphery of a strong mid level ridge on Tuesday. Slightly higher heights across the area may limit convection over the western portions of the area, but anticipate diurnal storms to develop once again as pwats will be around 2.0 inches across the area. Another hot day is on tap, with highs in the low mid 90s. Heat indices will range from 100 to 105 across much of the area and above 105 across the delta. A heat advisory may be needed for much of the delta on Tuesday. The ridge will weaken across the area on Wednesday, and this combined with plenty of moisture and diurnal heating, will kick off another round of afternoon and early evening storms. The ECMWF tries to drag a cold front into the region on Friday as upper troughing deepens to our north, while the GFS is not as deep with the trough. Either way it looks like the trend for diurnal storms will continue through the weekend, as pwats continue to remain around 2.0 inches. High temperatures will be a little cooler through the extended period, as the area remains under weak upper troughing sandwiched in between the sub-tropical ridge to the east and west. Expect highs to top out in the low 90s each day through the weekend. 15 Preliminary point temps pops Jackson 91 74 95 74 61 11 44 10 meridian 92 73 95 73 50 18 45 17 vicksburg 93 75 95 75 58 11 35 9 hattiesburg 90 72 92 72 74 23 64 20 natchez 91 73 92 74 71 22 48 13 greenville 92 75 94 75 37 9 26 4 greenwood 91 74 94 74 48 17 27 8 Jan watches warnings advisories Ms...

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors.

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
