AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
108 AM EDT FRI APR 11 2008

.MESOSCALE UPDATE...

CONVECTION TO OUR WEST HAS TAKEN A BIT OF AN UPTICK IN THE LAST 30
MINUTES OR SO WITH THE CELL COMING OUT OF SPENCER COUNTY INDIANA
INTO PERRY COUNTY.  THIS STORM IS BOWING OUT A BIT AND MAY POSE A
WIND DAMAGE THREAT THROUGH NORTHERN PERRY COUNTY OVER THE NEXT HALF
HOUR.  WE ARE BECOMING A BIT CONCERNED ABOUT A HEAVY RAIN THREAT
SETTING UP ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN INDIANA COUNTIES.  FLOOD GUIDANCE
SEEMS A BIT TOO HIGH GIVEN ANTECEDENT SOIL CONDITIONS.
THUS...WERE GOING TO WATCH THIS AREA VERY CLOSELY OVER THE NEXT FEW
HOURS.

CONVECTION CONTINUES ACROSS NORTHWEST TENNESSEE IN AN AREA OF STRONG
SFC CONFLUENCE AIDED BY INCREASING LOW-LEVEL JET AXIS NOSING INTO
THE REGION.  THIS SFC CONVERGENCE/CONFLUENCE SEEMS TO BE STRONG
ENOUGH TO BLOW THROUGH THE CAP AND KEEPS AIDING CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT.  ON ITS CURRENT TRACK THIS WOULD AFFECT OUR SOUTHWEST
COUNTIES AFTER 100 AM EDT/MIDNIGHT CDT.  THESE STORMS ARE VERY NEAR
SEVERE LEVELS WITH WARNINGS BEING ISSUED ATTM.  MAIN THREATS WITH
THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND PRIMARILY DAMAGING WINDS.

.EVENING UPDATE...

UPDATED FORECAST TO ACCOUNT FOR ARRIVAL TIME OF BROKEN LINE OF
STORMS NOW IN WESTERN KENTUCKY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW PLENTY OF
LOW LEVEL HELICITY...BUT RELATIVELY WEAK MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND
MARGINAL INSTABILITY. IN ADDITION...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IS SOMEWHAT
LACKING FOR WIDESPREAD SEVERE WX. WITH STRONG LOW TO MID LEVEL
WINDS...ISOLATED DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE MOST LIKELY SEVERE
THREAT.

BROKEN LINE OF STORMS WILL MOVE INTO SOUTHERN INDIANA AND INTO WEST
CENTRAL KENTUCKY PRIOR TO MIDNIGHT...AND INTO THE BLUEGRASS REGION
DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. AFTER THIS INITIAL LINE OF STORMS
PASS...EXPECT A NUMBER OF DRY HOURS THIS MORNING BEFORE A COLD FRONT
MOVES ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON.

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND FRIDAY)...

...SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE LATE TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY OVER SRN
INDIANA AND WEST CENTRAL KENTUCKY...WEST OF INTERSTATE 65...

UPR LOW OVER KANSAS STRENGTHENS ON ITS NEWD TRACK INTO IOWA BY 12Z
FRI AND MAINTAINS ITS INTENSITY INTO THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES FRI.
SHRTWV TROF ON E/SE EDGE OF CLOSED CIRCULATION...FORECAST TO
STRENGTHEN THRU 06Z TNGT AS IT APPROACHES STL AND THEN WEAKEN
CONSIDERABLY BY 12Z AS IT APPROACHES SOUTHWEST INDIANA. VORTICITY IS
THEN FORECAST TO SHEAR ENE INTO SRN INDIANA/OHIO FRI. BASED ON
THIS...MAXIMUM DIFFERENTIAL POSITIVE VORTICITY ADVECTION WOULD OCCUR
ACRS ERN MO/WRN IL EARLY TNGT WITH A LINEAR MCS LIKELY AHEAD OF
IT...MOVING INTO OUR WRN MOST CWA BEFORE MIDNIGHT TNGT. THIS MCS
SHOWN BY THE MODELS WOULD BE AHEAD OF/ON PREFNTL TROF AS ASSOCIATED
SFC LO REACHES IOWA WITH A TRAILING CDFNT SOUTHWARD INTO CENTRAL MO.
THE COMBINATION OF MAX FORCING...AVAILABLE CAPE AND MAX WIND SHEAR
POINTS AT OUR SWRN MOST INDIANA COUNTIES AS MOST PRONE TO SVR STMS
LATE THIS EVE WITH JUST A BIT LESSER THREAT SWD INTO WCNTRL AND
SCNTRL KY...WEST OF I-65. SVR THREAT SHUD THEN WANE OVERNIGHT AS MCS
MOVES FARTHER AWAY FROM BEST FORCING/DYNAMICS/INSTABILITY. LATEST
DAY 1 OUTLOOK HAS BACKED OFF THE MODERATE RISK FOR OUR WRN CWA AND
REPLACED WITH SLGT...WITH OUR FAR ERN COUNTIES JUST IN GENERAL
THUNDER.

NAM IS MORE AGGRESSIVE WITH DEVELOPING ANOTHER LINEAR MCS INTO OUR
CWA BY EARLY AFTN FRI...GFS LESS SO. THE ERN HALF OF OUR FA IN A
SLGT RISK...THOUGH IN A MINIMAL AREA COMPARED WITH THE BETTER
DYNAMICS TO THE NORTH AND BETTER INSTAB TO THE SOUTH. GRADIENT WINDS
FRI MAY BE A BIGGER THREAT WITH PREFNTL GUSTS POSSIBLY EXCEEDING 40
MPH...PONDERED A WIND ADVISORY WITH THIS ISSUANCE...BUT MAIN WINDS
SHUD HOLD OFF TIL LATE MORNING/AFTN FRI...SO WILL WAIT ON ANOTHER
MODEL RUN FOR SIMILAR MOS TRENDS SHOWING SUSTAINED WINDS IN THE MID
TO UPPER 20 MPH RANGE. ANOTHER CONCERN IS EXCESSIVE RAINFALL...LATE
TNGT...EARLY FRI. IF THIS OCCURS...MOST LIKELY ACRS SRN INDIANA...
IT IS OVER AN AREA WHICH DID NOT RECEIVE THE RAINS THAT CENTRAL KY
GOT ABOUT 10 DAYS AGO AND THE GROUND CAN HOLD MUCH MORE WATER NOW
WITH NEW/GROWING VEGETATION ABSORBING IT. NO FFA ATTM.

.LONG TERM (FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY)...

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...

MAIN CONCERN FOR THE LONGER TERM WITH SHOWERS OCCURRING IN THE
MOISTURE WRAPPING AROUND THE UPPER LEVEL LOW THAT WILL SPREAD ACROSS
SOUTH CENTRAL INDIANA AND CENTRAL KENTUCKY SATURDAY INTO MONDAY.
AFTER THE COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON...COOLER
AIR WILL BEGIN TO FLOW INTO THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY. IN ADDITION DRIER
AIR WILL BRING A TEMPORARY END TO THE SHOWERS FOR PARTS OF FRIDAY
NIGHT.  EXPECT THE DRY SLOT TO REMAIN OVER MUCH OF THE AREA FRIDAY
NIGHT AND INTO THE FIRST PART OF SATURDAY MORNING.  HOWEVER AS THE
UPPER TROUGH ROTATES SOUTH TOWARD THE OHIO RIVER SATURDAY
MORNING...CLOUDS WILL INCREASE AND SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL ONCE AGAIN
DEVELOP DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. THE SHOWERS WILL
DECREASE SOME DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS BUT A SECOND TROUGH WILL
TRIGGER AND INCREASE IN SHOWERS ON SUNDAY.  THIS UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM
WILL SLOWLY EXIT THE REGION ON MONDAY.

TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY WILL BE NOTICEABLY COOLER THAN FRIDAY/S
MILD READINGS...WITH HIGHS ON SATURDAY ONLY IN THE LOWER AND MID
50S. BRISK NORTHWEST WINDS OF 15 TO 25 MPH WILL MAKE THE AIR FEEL
EVEN COLDER.

HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL HOVER AROUND 50 DEGREES AGAIN SUNDAY AND
MONDAY WITH MORNING LOWS IN THE MID 30S.

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY AND
WILL GRADUALLY TRACK EAST ACROSS CENTRAL KENTUCKY AND SOUTH CENTRAL
INDIANA. THE HIGH WILL SETTLE OFF THE GEORGIA AND CAROLINA COAST ON
THURSDAY AND THIS SHOULD KEEP THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY DRY FOR SEVERAL
DAYS. TEMPERATURES WILL BE COOL THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK WITH
TEMPERATURES WARMING BACK INTO THE MID 60S TO LOWER 70S BY
THURSDAY.

&&

.AVIATION (06Z TAFS)...

MAIN TAF CONCERN WILL BE LINE OF CONVECTION ALONG PREFRONTAL TROUGH
JUST TO THE WEST OF TAF SITES.  THIS CONVECTION SHOULD BE AT BWG
AROUND 7Z TO 10Z...SDF 8Z TO 11Z...AND LEX 9Z TO 12Z.  EXPECT STRONG
POSSIBLY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH THIS LINE WITH MVFR CIGS AND
VSBYS IN THE TSTORMS.

THERE WILL BE A BRIEF PERIOD OF VFR CIGS AND VSBYS AFTER THIS LINE
GETS THROUGH NEAR DAWN...BUT ANOTHER LINE OF STRONG POSSIBLY SEVERE
STORMS WILL DEVELOP AND MOVE THROUGH THE TAF SITES TOMORROW
AFTERNOON ALONG A COLD FRONT. MVFR RESTRICTIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE
AGAIN WITH THESE STORMS.

AS FAR AS WINDS GO...EXPECT GUSTY GRADIENT WINDS TONIGHT AHEAD OF
THE TROUGH.  WILL ALSO INCLUDE LLWS AS A GOOD JET GETS GOING THIS
MORNING.  GRADIENT WINDS WILL AGAIN BE GUSTY UP TO 30 TO 35 KTS
TOMORROW AFTERNOON.  SEVERE WIND GUSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE
THE TWO WAVES OF STORMS EXPECTED.  WILL HANDLE WITH TEMPOS AS THE
STORMS GET CLOSER.
