Severe Thunderstorm Warning 125, NWS Nashville, TN

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NASHVILLE TN
910 AM CDT WED JUN 8 2005

.DISCUSSION...
A WEAK H5 SHORTWAVE LOCATED NORTH-SOUTH ALONG THE CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI
RIVER VALLEY IS DRIFTING EASTWARD AND SPARKING CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY
OVER EASTERN MIDDLE TENNESSEE...WESTERN KENTUCKY AND NRN ALABAMA.
MODELS INDICATE THAT THIS FEATURE WILL CONTINUE SLOWLY EASTWARD
AND THEN BECOME QUASI-STATIONARY BEFORE LIFTING NWD EARLY FRI
MORNING.

MORNING SOUNDING SHOWING ABOUT 1900 CAPE WITH GOOD INSTABILITY
INDICES. DONT EXPECT THE SAME KIND OF ACTIVITY AS LAST MONDAY
WHEN WE HAD THE +4000 CAPE, BUT DO EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO GRADUALLY FILL IN OVER THE AREA. SOUNDING SHOWS NO
SHEAR IS AVAILABLE FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...BUT SOME STORMS MIGHT
PULSE BRIEFLY TO SEVERE LEVELS. OF COURSE, THE LACK OF WIND IN THE
SOUNDING ALSO MEANS THAT STORMS WILL MOVE RATHER SLOWLY AND THAT
MIGHT LEAD TO ISOLATED HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLASH FLOODING.

HAVE UPDATED ZONES TO REMOVE MAINLY AFTERNOON WORDING BUT LEFT POPS
AND TEMPS ALONE.

.OHX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
