Severe Thunderstorm Warning 135, NWS Paducah, KY

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
107 PM CDT TUE MAY 7 2002

HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL IS PRIMARY CONCERN AT THIS TIME. EARLY MORNING
MCS LEFT A COLD POOL AND MESOHIGH OVER THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.
CONVECTION HAS BEEN REFIRING IN WARM ADVECTION REGIME ON THE BACK
SIDE OF THE MESOHIGH. VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY AND SFC OBS
INDICATED AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY JUST SOUTH OF A LINE FROM KDYR TO KJBR
AT 17Z. ACTIVITY OVER CENTRAL MISSOURI MAY DEVELOP EASTWARD THROUGH
EARLY TONIGHT AS THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY RETURNS NORTHWARD.

ON THE SYNOPTIC SCALE...A QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT WAS JUST NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 70 AT MIDDAY. ETA INDICATES THIS FRONT WILL SAG SOUTHWARD
OR REFORM NEAR A KSTL TO KEVV LINE LATE TONIGHT. AVN BRINGS IT SOUTH
TO A SIMILAR LOCATION THIS EVENING...THEN LIFTS IT BACK NORTH
OVERNIGHT. GIVEN THE UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE MOVEMENT OF THE FRONT
AND THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY...AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAINFALL IS VERY
DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE MENTIONED IN
THE FORECAST. WILL HOLD OFF ON A FLOOD WATCH...SINCE FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE IS QUITE HIGH FOR MOST COUNTIES. EXCEPTION IS OVER
SOUTHWEST INDIANA...WEST ACROSS THE INTERSTATE 64 CORRIDOR...WHICH
WILL BE MONITORED CLOSELY OVERNIGHT. INCREASING LOW LEVEL JET...HIGH
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES...AND A SLOW MOVING FRONTAL BOUNDARY ALL
SUPPORT ISOLATED RAINFALL AMOUNTS OVER 2 INCHES.

MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT LIFTING THE FRONT WELL NORTH OF THE
FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY. ETA STILL INDICATES A CAPPED AIR MASS WILL
OVERSPREAD THE REGION DURING THE AFTERNOON...WITH CONVECTIVE
INHIBITION OVER 100 J/KG. EXPECT CONVECTION TO BE MAINLY IN THE
MORNING WITH THE DEPARTING WARM FRONT.

THE MAIN COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THE
FRONT IS STILL PROGGED TO CROSS MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA ON
THURSDAY IN THE 12Z TO 18Z TIME FRAME...WHICH SHOULD MITIGATE THE
SEVERE WEATHER THREAT. ETA IS A LITTLE SLOWER THAN THE
AVN...BRINGING THE FRONT THROUGH PARTS OF WEST KENTUCKY DURING THE
AFTERNOON. A SURFACE HIGH WILL BUILD IN BEHIND THE FRONT THURSDAY
NIGHT...PASSING NEAR OR OVER THE FORECAST AREA ON FRIDAY.

THE BREAK IN THE ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL BE SHORT LIVED...AS THE
AVN IS NOW MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH THE NEXT SYSTEM FOR THE WEEKEND.
RETURN FLOW DEVELOPS SATURDAY...WITH SOME WARM ADVECTION SHOWERS OR
STORMS POSSIBLE. MORE SIGNIFICANT WEATHER IS POSSIBLE SUNDAY AHEAD
OF ANOTHER COLD FRONT.

COORDINATED WITH LSX/ILX/SDF

.PAH...NONE.
