029 FXUS64 KJAN 152312 AAA AFDJAN Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Jackson MS 612 PM CDT Tue Apr 15 2025 ...New AVIATION... .DISCUSSION... Issued at 148 PM CDT Tue Apr 15 2025 Tonight and Wednesday: High pressure is building in today in the wake of a cold front. Cold air advection on breezy northerlies amid lowered humidity has resulted in sufficient fire danger criteria to maintain the ongoing Elevated outlook for the next few hours. As winds calm and skies clear, temperatures fall into the mid and upper 40s F tonight. Thursday into next week... Steady temperatures increases are expected through the remainder of the week, leveling off into the weekend with highs in the upper 80s F. A few locations could briefly touch 90 F by Friday. It currently appears thats fire weather danger likely will remain low through the rest of the forecast period as combinations of low humidity and gusty winds will likely not sufficiently rise to levels of concern. Given the marginally favorable conditions, any forecast changes that introduce somewhat drier or windier conditions than currently forecast would result in increased concern. This will be monitored as we move through the week. Returning deep layer moisture will also likely result in slowly increasing rain chances through the weekend into early next week ahead of our next approaching cold front. Some guidance continues to suggest the upper level trough will be sufficiently robust to result in a frontal wave/cyclogenesis and this combined with likely at least marginally supportive boundary layer thermodynamics could mean storms Sunday into Monday. A few of these could be strong to severe. Disagreement amongst guidance in both time and intensity will preclude introduction of forecast graphics at this time, but it appears likely that at least some of the area will have had a round of thunderstorms by the time we get to the middle of next week. /86/ && .AVIATION...
