NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
210 PM CDT TUE APR 3 2007

.DISCUSSION...

SEVERE THREAT IMMEDIATE CONCERN WITH FROST/FREEZE LATER IN THE WEEK.

LARGE AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL TRAVERSE THE AREA THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. THE LATEST
SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATED THE LOW WAS JUST SOUTH OF ROCKFORD
ILLINOIS WITH A THE COLD FRONT ARCING SOUTHWESTWARD THROUGH ST LOUIS
TO JUST EAST SPRINGFIELD MO. LATEST SURFACE OBS AND 18Z UA FROM BNA
AND SGF RUNS INDICATE SOME CAPPING ALTHOUGH IT IS EASILY BROKEN WITH
THE FRONTAL APPROACH. RADAR INDICATES HAIL WITH THE EXISTING STORMS
MOVING INTO THE AREA AND SOME ROTATION HAS BEEN DETECTED WITH A
COUPLE STORMS.

THE MAIN CONCERN WILL OF COURSE BE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF ANY
SUPERCELLS EMBEDDED IN THE LINE OR ESPECIALLY OUT AHEAD OF THE MAIN
AREA OF STORMS. THE LATEST LAPS RUNS INDICATE THE ENVIRONMENT OVER
THE QUAD STATE HAS LIFTED INDEX -8...CAPE VALUES UP TO 2000 J/KG.
THE WIND FIELDS ARE NOT THE GREATEST FOR SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT BUT
STILL REMAIN POSSIBLE WHEN YOU CONSIDER ALL SEVERE PARAMETERS
COMBINED.

NEXT CONCERN AFTER TONIGHT WILL BE FOR FROST/FREEZING WEDNESDAY
NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. THIS IS COVERED IN THE HWO AND WILL
NOT HEADLINE ANYTHING UNTIL THE SEVERE THREAT IS OUT OF THE FA. AS
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...MODELS CONTINUE ADVERTISING COLD/FREEZING
TEMPS. THE MODELS ARE STARTING TO STABILIZE FROM RUN TO RUN. AS
PREVIOUS FORECAST DID LEAN TOWARD THE WARMER SIDE OF MODELS.
