  Mesoscale Discussion 1899

   Areas affected...much of eastern Mississippi into western and
   northern Alabama

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible 

   Valid 251621Z - 251845Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

   SUMMARY...Storms are expected to gradually increase in intensity
   along a cold front, with sporadic wind damage and couple tornadoes
   possible.

   DISCUSSION...A north-south oriented line of storms currently extends
   from the MO Bootheel into western TN, and due south across the
   middle of MS. While northern parts of this line are surging quickly
   northeastward coincident with the shortwave trough, southern
   portions of the line are moving slower toward the east. Recently,
   lightning has been observed over central MS where MLCAPE remains
   below 1000 J/kg.

   Surface observations show warming over southern MS with temperatures
   in the upper 70s to near 80 F, and this degree of warming may be
   needed for surface-based inflow parcels initially.
   With time, a few cells along the front may become severe, with
   sections of QLCS possible. Large scale lift is more favorable
   farther north, but low-level convergence along the front should be
   enough to initiate new storms later today given robust moisture.
   Large looping hodographs with 0-1 SRH to 300 m2/s2 will clearly
   favor rotation, with a conditional threat of brief tornadoes and
   corridors of damaging winds. 

   The slow eastward movement of the line, coupled with diurnal
   considerations, do appear favorable for a discrete supercell or two
   later this afternoon, most notably where southern portions of the
   line interact with the stronger MLCAPE. Though models differ on
   storm coverage, any discrete supercells in this high shear
   environment could result in an isolated strong tornado within a
   relatively narrow zone.

Line is slowly approaching. Fully expecting to lose power for an hour or two. Really doesn’t take much for it to go out. Hopefully it won’t be out that long since the rain shouldn’t last too long.

Squall is strengthening and on its way to hit me. I’d be hyped if I wasn’t concerned about losing power. I’m fine with losing power if it’s a great storm but I’m expecting maybe 30-40 mph winds. Not really worth it to me

I've lost internet, not power, at least 10 times now in the past like 90 minutes. I've lost count. It's been for 2-5 mins at a time. Had no issues throughout the rain but now the rain is gone and I'm having problems.

Still in the warm sector, winds are gusting up to 30 mph. Cold front is probably an hour or two away. I think the internet issues are getting better. At least there are false alarms/very brief outages now, and the longest I've gone so far with internet is about 12 minutes. But it's still very annoying. 

It's better than losing power though. I have unlimited data and my charging cord so I can use my phone as much as I want, but I only have 1 bar so it's very slow.

Edit: new record is 13 mins and counting

Only one internet service that reaches us. It's great.

It's fine though... got my final job offer for NWS Amarillo. I'll be starting on November 21. Doubt I'll have issues with internet/data there.

Nice. Except that now you're due west of me on I-40.

It's a week out but I think it's time to start paying attention to 11/3-4 timeframe, GFS has been pretty consistent with a nice trough moving through, and some model runs are showing a fairly nice Fall season setup. Here in OK we typically see at least one solid Fall season event a year, this might have potential to be this year's. Something to keep an eye on

Congratulations! Best of luck (tho you won’t need it), i’m sure you will do great and be a substantial addition to their office. Cheers!

Thanks guys!

Tomorrow looks kinda interesting. Very weak cold front for the end of October. Narrow warm sector but pretty crazy hodographs. Even though the warm sector is pretty small, it's still split between instability heavy and shear heavy. There's gotta be a middle ground, so it'll be interesting to watch

Later in the day definitely favors the coast
