.DISCUSSION...
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 632 IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 PM CDT THIS
EVENING FOR ALL BUT THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES OF THE MID STATE.
A COLD FRONT WAS JUST ENTERING THE NORTHWEST SECTION OF THE MID
STATE. THUNDERSTORMS WERE LOCATED ALONG AND JUST IN FRONT OF THIS
COLD FRONT. NWS RADAR SHOWS STORMS HAVE WEAKEN AFTER THE SUN WENT
DOWN. HOWEVER...THERE IS ENOUGH UNSTABLE CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED
WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY FOR THE WATCH TO REMAIN IN PLACE. LATER
TONIGHT AS THIS SYSTEM ADVANCES EASTWARD...ZONES WILL BE UPDATED TO
REMOVE WATCH. WINDS WILL NEED TO BE TWEAK WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE
FRONTAL PASSAGE...BUT ALL OTHER ELEMENTS WERE ON TRACK.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
LATEST ANALYSIS CONTINUES TO SFC/LL FRONTAL BOUNDARY WORKING ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN OH RIVER VALLEY DOWN INTO OK. ALOFT...UPPER RIDGES STILL
HOLDING ACROSS THE MID-SOUTH BUT ARE SLOWLY BREAKING DOWN AS WEAK
UPPER TROUGH AXIS CURRENTLY DROPPING OUT OF THE NORTHERN PLAIN
CONTINUES TO APPROACH. COMPLEX ACROSS SOUTHERN IL/WESTERN KY SLIDING
JUST AHEAD OF QUASI-STATIONARY LL FRONT. FURTHER SOUTH...OUTFLOWS/
WEAK CONVECTIVE BOUNDARIES CONTINUE TO MEANDER IN THE CWA VICINITY
BUT DEVELOPMENT SO FAR HAS BEEN MINIMAL.

BREAK IN THE HEAT EXPECTED AS MODELS CONTINUE TO PROG LL FRONTAL
BOUNDARY DROPPING DOWN ACROSS THE CWA LATE TONIGHT AND PUSHING OFF
THE PLATEAU LATER SATURDAY AFTERNOON...AHEAD FAIRLY SHARP ML/UL
TROUGH AXES. DEEP MOISTURE ADVECTION EXPECTED TO GET IN GEAR EARLY
THIS EVENING WHILE SHORTWAVES ALOFT FURTHER STEEPEN LAPSE RATE AND
INCREASE INSTABILITY. LL CONVERGENCE ALSO ON THE RISE AS STRONGER
OUTFLOWS FROM APPROACHING COMPLEX AND EVENTUALLY MAIN FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WORK INTO THE PICTURE. PLAN TO KEEP LIKELY POPS NORTH WITH
SCATTERED SOUTH TONIGHT. EXPECT LIKELY POPS MUCH OF THE CWA SATURDAY
BUT WILL RAMP POPS DOWN WEST TO EAST IN THE AFTERNOON AS FRONT/UL
TROUGHS PROGRESS.

SURFACE BOUNDARY EXPECTED TO BE WELL EAST OF CSV BY 00Z SUN BUT
LAGGING MOISTURE AND SLOWER PASSAGE OF H8 BOUNDARY MAY LEAVE A
FEW SHOWERS OR STORMS ACROSS PART OF THE AREA SATURDAY EVENING
BUT NOT MUCH EXPECTED IN THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

PLEASANT SUMMERTIME CONDITIONS EXPECTED SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT AS
DWPTS DROP TO AROUND 60 AND TEMPS STAY BELOW SEASON NORMALS.
