AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
119 PM CST FRI DEC 26 2008

.DISCUSSION...
OVER THE NEXT HOUR...AM HOPEFULLY VSBYS WILL IMPROVE RAPIDLY
NORTH OF I-64...WHICH MEANS WE CAN LET THE DENSE FOG ADVISORY
EXPIRE AT 2 PM. ELSEWHERE...WARM SOUTHERLY WINDS HAVE KICKED IN
WITH TEMPS IN THE LOW TO MID 60S AND DEW POINTS IN THE MID 50S TO
NEAR 60.

NOT MUCH GOING ON CONVECTION WISE. RUC SHOWS MID TROP NVA THROUGH
EARLY EVENING...THEN SOME WEAK FORCING FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS
THE AREA MID TO LATE EVENING. WILL KEEP POPS LOW CHANCE...THEN
GRADUALLY INCREASE THEM OVER OUR WESTERN MOST COUNTIES AFTER MIDNIGHT.
POPS TONIGHT...AND EVEN SATURDAY EAST 1/2 OF THE AREA MAY BE A
LITTLE OVERDONE. BUT WE CANNOT RULE OUT SHOWER OR ISOLD -TSRA
REALLY ANYTIME NEXT 24 HOURS IN THIS FLOW. WEAK INSTABILITY AND
ADEQUATE MOISTURE / WEAK LIFT COULD BE ENOUGH TO SPARK SOMETHING.
HIGHEST POPS WILL BE ALONG OUR WESTERN FRINGE OF COUNTIES TONIGHT.

POPS WILL RISE CONSIDERABLY SATURDAY...ESPECIALLY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. BY EVENING
WE EXPECT THE FRONT WILL BE INTO SE MISSOURI. IT SHOULD PROGRESS
STEADILY EASTWARD THROUGH THE EVENING...AND DEPART OUR EASTERN
MOST COUNTIES BETWEEN 06-09Z SUNDAY. MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW A
DECREASING AREA OF SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY AS THE FRONT
APPROACHES. HOWEVER WIND FIELDS ARE STILL FORECAST TO BE QUITE
STRONG...WITH SOME LOW LEVEL VEERING. SO CANNOT RULE OUT ISOLD
STRONG OR SVR WITHIN A SQUALL LINE OF COOL SEASON...LOW TOP
CONVECTION. WIND WILL BE THE PRIMARY HAZARD.

WILL HAVE IT DRY BY 12Z SUNDAY ALL AREAS WITH A SHARP DECREASE
IN CLOUD COVER. QUIET WEATHER WILL PERSIST MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY
AS HIGH PRESSURE TAKES CONTROL OF THE WEATHER.

WILL GO AHEAD AND ISSUE A WIND ADVISORY FOR SATURDAY AND SATURDAY
EVENING...AS MODEL SOUNDINGS AND NUMERICAL GUIDANCE ALL SUGGEST
WIND GUSTS COULD BE STRONG AT TIMES. STRONG 60-70KT FLOW JUST
OFF THE SURFACE WITHIN THE WARM/MIXED LOW TROP COULD RESULT IN
GUSTS AND EVEN SUSTAINED WINDS OCCASIONALLY INTO THE ADVISORY
RANGE.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE TRICKY TONIGHT AND SATURDAY. LOOKING UPSTREAM
70F AIR IS NOT TOO FAR AWAY...AND THERE IS NOTHING TO INHIBIT ITS
NORTHWARD ADVECTION. WE MAY HAVE TO RAISE TEMPS A FEW DEGREES.
OFFSETTING THIS WILL BE CLOUDS AND PRECIP POSSIBILITY.

00Z GFS ENSEMBLE MEAN WAS ONCE AGAIN THE PRIMARY TOOL USED FOR
THE LONG RANGE. THIS MODEL IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE 00Z
ECMWF.

MID LEVEL ZONAL FLOW IS EXPECTED TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. A 500 MB
SHORTWAVE IS FORECAST TO DRIVE A SURFACE COLD FRONT SOUTHEAST ACROSS
THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY TUESDAY NIGHT. MILD CONDITIONS FOR THIS TIME
OF YEAR ARE EXPECTED TUESDAY...THEN A SHIFT TO SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES WILL OCCUR BEHIND THE FRONT.

NEW YEARS DAY INTO FRIDAY...A MORE SIGNIFICANT SHORTWAVE IS FORECAST
TO DIG SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE CENTRAL STATES. THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE
LOW IS FORECAST TO BE A CLIPPER TYPE SYSTEM THAT SHOULD TRACK
SOUTHEAST ACROSS ILLINOIS/INDIANA. THOUGH TIMING AND LOCATION
DETAILS WILL PROBABLY CHANGE...THERE APPEARS TO BE ENOUGH OF A
CHANCE OF RAIN OR SNOW TO INTRODUCE POPS INTO THE FORECAST ON DAY 7.

&&

.AVIATION...
EXTENSIVE AREA OF LOW STRATUS AND FOG AHEAD OF A WARM FRONT WILL BE
SLOW TO LIFT. OVERALL...THE NEXT 24 HOURS APPEAR TO BE PREDOMINANTLY
IFR. IN ADDITION...SOUTH WINDS WILL INCREASE AT THE SURFACE THROUGH
THE PERIOD. GUSTS OVER 30 KT POSSIBLE BY 12Z. SOME IMPROVEMENT IN
CIGS TO MVFR LIMITS SHOULD OCCUR BY 12Z...OTHERWISE PERIODS OF MVFR
CONDITIONS WILL BE RATHER SHORT. HOWEVER...INCREASING AREAS OF
SHOWERS SATURDAY MORNING WILL LOWER VSBYS.
