CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN THE AFTERNOON HEATING AND IN ADVANCE OF WEAK
LOW PRESSURE APPROACHING FROM W KY...ACROSS THE SW PORTION OF THE
CWA...THEN WORKING E THIS EVENING.

MODELS HAVE BACKED OFF ON PW VALUES AND INSTABILITY...WITH THE
JUICIEST AIR TO THE W.  FREEZING LEVEL AND STRENGTH OF FLOW CAN
STILL SUPPORT MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL AND WIND IN AND NEAR NE KY
WHERE SLT RISK IS.  USED NEWLY WRITTEN EDIT AREA FROM MODEL
PARAMETER TOOL TO HELP WITH PLACEMENT AND TIMING OF HIGHEST POPS AND
BEST CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS.  MODELS SHOW PRECIPITATION HANGING ON
A LITTLE LONGER IN THE MOUNTAINS EARLY SUNDAY MORNING AS A COLD
FRONT MOVES IN FROM THE N.

HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO BUILD INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE FRONT SUNDAY
AFTERNOON BRINGING ABOUT CLEARING.

GUIDANCE LOOKS REASONABLE FOR TONIGHT AND SUNDAY...WITH A BLEND
WHERE DIFFERENCES SHOW UP IN A HTS-CRW-EKN AXIS SUNDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
FIRST PART OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD WILL REMAIN DRY AS UPPER LEVEL
RIDGING OVER THE SE U.S. REMAINS IN CONTROL. THIS WILL CREATE MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SOME AFTERNOON CU...AND WARMER
TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE REGION FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE WORK WEEK.
HUMIDITY WILL ALSO BE ON THE INCREASE EARLY IN THE EXTENDED AS THE
SURFACE HIGH SHIFTS TO THE EAST...AND FLOW BECOMES MORE
SOUTHWESTERLY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
NAM CONTINUES TO BE FASTER WITH THE FRONT NEXT WEEK. HOWEVER...HAVE
CONTINUED TO TREND THE FORECAST MORE TOWARDS THE GFS WHICH IS SLOWER
WITH THE BREAK DOWN OF THE RIDGE...BRINGING THE FRONT INTO THE
REGION TUESDAY NIGHT/EARLY WEDNESDAY...AND THEN SLOWLY SAGGING SOUTH
OF THE REGION.  THIS WILL BRING A RETURN OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO THE REGION ONCE AGAIN. MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA
WILL BEGIN TO DRY OUT TOWARDS THE END OF THE WORK WEEK...ALTHOUGH
HAVE CONTINUED TO MAINTAIN AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF POPS IN THE
FORECAST...MAINLY IN THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE CWA AND OVER THE
HIGHER TERRAIN...AS DISTURBANCES CONTINUE TO MOVE THROUGH THE FLOW.
MODELS INDICATE ANOTHER FRONT MOVING INTO THE REGION AT THE END OF
THE EXTENDED PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
COLD FRONT TO SAG DOWN ACROSS SOUTHERN WEST VIRGINIA TONIGHT AND
SUNDAY. SCATTERED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH MVFR TO IFR CONDTIONS
