MESOSCALE UPDATE
ISSUED AT 954 PM CST FRI NOV 14 2025
HREF DENSE FOG PROBS HAVE INCREASED SOMEWHAT IN THE PINE BELT AND
HIGHWAY 84 TO INTERSTATE 59 CORRIDORS. CONVECTIVE ALLOWING MODEL
GUIDANCE, INCLUDING HRRR, RAP AND TIME-LAGGED GUIDANCE AND HREF
DENSE FOG PROBS DURATION OF SEVERAL HOURS, PROBABILITY OF DENSE
FOG IS ENOUGH TO WARRANT MENTION IN LOCAL HAZARD GRAPHIC. THESE
AREAS REMAIN IN THE CORRIDOR OF BEST CROSSOVER TEMPERATURES IN
EXCESS OF 3F TO 5F DEGREES. IN ADDITION, ADDED A DENSE FOG
ADVISORY IN THE HIGHWAY 84 TO 98 CORRIDORS, IN THE SOUTHERN TIER

DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1245 PM CST FRI NOV 14 2025
THE FORECAST GOING THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK CAN BEST BE
DESCRIBED AS UNUSUALLY WARM AND DRY. THE MOST PROMINENT WEATHER
FEATURE AFFECTING OUR REGION WILL BE A WARM LONGWAVE RIDGE THAT
WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT FROM THE PLAINS TO THE MS VALLEY. AS THIS
HAPPENS, SUBSIDENT ANTICYCLONIC FLOW WILL TEND TO DEFLECT ANY
POTENTIAL WEATHER SYSTEMS TO OUR WEST AND NORTH. SURFACE
TEMPERATURES WILL BE WELL ABOVE NORMAL WITH DEPARTURES OF +10 TO
+20 DEG F EACH DAY.
LOOKING AHEAD TO LATE NEXT WEEK, GLOBAL MODEL ENSEMBLES INDICATE
LESS VARIABILITY AMONG MEMBERS AS THEY CONVERGE ON A SOLUTION
THAT WOULD PROMISE GREATER RAIN CHANCES LATE NEXT WEEK. FORECAST
CONFIDENCE HAS INCREASED FOR US GETTING SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL
(E.G., > 1 INCH) OVER NORTHWEST PORTIONS OF THE AREA IN THE THU-
FRI TIME FRAME, WHEN A STRONGER SOUTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE TROUGH
IS FORECAST TO FINALLY MAKE A DENT IN THE RIDGE. THIS PATTERN
COULD ALLOW A FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO STALL OVER THE ARKLAMISS REGION
AND HELP FOCUS A FAIRLY LONG DURATION OF MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND
LIFT INTO THE UPPER DELTA REGION IN OUR FORECAST AREA. FOR
LOCATIONS ROUGHLY ALONG/SOUTHEAST OF THE NATCHEZ TRACE PARKWAY,
LIGHTER RAINFALL AMOUNTS ARE INDICATED AS A WEAKENING AND MORE
PROGRESSIVE FRONT SHOULD PUSH THROUGH.
ASIDE FROM THE RAINFALL, THIS SYSTEM COULD POSE SOME CONCERN FOR
A MARGINAL SEVERE WEATHER RISK, AND WE'LL BE MONITORING FOR THAT
AS WELL. FOR NOW AT LEAST, AI/ML AND ANALOG GUIDANCE ARE BEARISH
WITH ANY SEVERE WEATHER PROBS, AND THERE IS NO FORMAL MESSAGING
BEING CONSIDERED FOR SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS. /EC/
