River Flood Warning 92, NWS Paducah, KY

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
130 PM CDT TUE MAY 27 2008

.DISCUSSION...

LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACES COLD FRONT ALONG THE NORTHERN BORDER
OF PAH CWA OR I-64 CORRIDOR. LATEST REG RADAR LOOP SHOWS ECHOES
SOUTH,,,WEST...AND NORTH OF CWA. LATEST UPPER ANALYSIS SUPPORT THE
VOID OF CONVECTION OVER THE AREA AS SOME RIDGING WAS INDICATED OVER
THE CWA. IR SAT LOOP ALSO INDICATES WARMING TOPS THROUGH THE MORNING
HOURS.

12Z MON MODEL RUNS FLATTEN OUT THE RIDGING THIS AFTN AS FRONT PUSHES
INTO THE FA. WILL MONITOR ACTIVITY AND MAKE FINAL CALL FOR TONIGHTS
WEATHER WORDING CLOSER TO PRESS TIME. OTHERWISE AGREE VERY WELL WITH
SPC SWODY1 BUT START TO DIVERGE A BIT FROM SWODY2. FOR TONIGHT
EXPECT SEVERE THREAT TO BE LIMITED TO ISOLATED AT BEST. WITH
RELATIVELY LOW CAPES...LESS THAN 500 J/KG...LIS -1...WET BULB ZERO
NEARLY 13K FEET...RATHER BENIGN HODOGRAPH SIGNATURE...ZERO TO 6 KM
AVG SIX KNOTS. IF ANYTHING STRONG GETS GOING IT WILL MOST LIKELY
NEED A BOUNDARY TO WORK WITH SUCH AS THE FRONT OR OUTFLOW BOUNDARY.

EVEN THOUGH THE FRONT SHOULD BE SOUTH OF THE AREA WEDNESDAY WITH
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES IN EXCESS OF 1.5 INCHES KEPT AT LEAST
SCATTERED SHOWERS IN FOR WEDNESDAY. IN CONTRAST WITH LIS GOING VERY
POSITIVE REMOVED THUNDER MENTION. BY WED AFTN EXPECT ANY PRECIP TO
BE RESTRICTED TO THE FAR SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FA.

BRING HIGH PRESSURE IN THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK WITH DRY AND
COOLER CONDITIONS. A WEAK COLD FRONT PROGGED TO MOVE THROUGH THE
AREA SAT INTO SAT NIGHT MAINTAINED PRECIP CHC THERE. THEN DRY OUT
AGAIN SUNDAY INTO THE EARLY NEXT WEEK TIME FRAME WITH ANOTHER WEAK
SIGNAL FOR A CHANCE OF PRECIP MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY.

AS FOR TEMPS WENT BELOW MOS IN THE SHORT TERM WITH BOTH TEMPS AND
DEWPOINTS. STILL MIGHT NOT BE LOW ENOUGH AS COLD FRONT IS FAIRLY
SIGNIFICANT WITH TEMPS ALREADY IN THE 50S AND DEW POINTS IN THE 40S
IN CENTRAL IL AND IN.

.AVIATION...

OCNL MVFR CIGS CONTINUE AT TAF SITES AND WILL DO SO THIS AFTN. UPR
LVL WAVE MOVG INTO THE REGION SHOULD INCREASE THE CHANCE OF
CONVECTION THROUGH THE END OF THE DAY. FROPA EXPECTED THIS EVENING
WITH WINDS BECOMING NNE BY 06Z ALL SITES. NAM/GFS BUFR FORECAST
SOUNDINGS SUGGEST MVFR OR BORDERLINE IFR CIGS POST FRONT WITH A
DIMINISHING CHANCE OF CONVECTION.
