What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Jackson, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 10, 8:24 PM EDT, 10 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 10, 8:24 PM EDT, 10 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON KY
824 PM EDT TUE MAY 10 2011

.SHORT TERM.../THE REST OF TONIGHT/...UPDATED

ONGOING TSRA ACTIVITY IS CONFINED TO THE AREA NORTH OF THE MOUNTAIN
PARKWAY. HAVE REDUCED THE SEVERE WATCH TO INCLUDE THE PRIMARY THREAT
AREA. THE TUNDERSTORMS SEEM TO WANT TO CONTINUE WITH AN MCV CREATING
STRONG STORMS. EXPECT THE ACTIVITY TO SUBSIDE WITH THE PASSING OF THE
MCV AND COOLING OF THE AIRMASS FOLLOWING THE SETTING SUN. WILL UPDATE
AGAIN ONCE ACTIVITY QUIETS DOWN.

THE PREVIOUS SHORT TERM FORECAST DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...

/TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/

A SURFACE WARM FRONT HAS EASED ITS WAY NORTHEAST THROUGH THIS
AFTERNOON...CURRENTLY ALIGNED FROM NEAR FWA DOWN TO HTS. A SHORT WAVE
TROUGH WAS ROTATING THROUGH SOUTHERN IL/IN. MOST OF THE BETTER
ACTIVITY IS CURRENTLY ALIGNED ALONG AND JUST SOUTHWEST OF THE WARM
FRONT. SEVERE STORMS HAVE FIRED UP IN NORTH CENTRAL KENTUCKY...WITH
VERY LARGE HAIL THE PRIMARY CONCERN. THESE WILL CONTINUE TO DRIFT
EAST AND SOUTHEAST WITH TIME. LOCATIONS ALONG AND NORTHEAST OF A LINE
FROM MOUNT STERLING TO SALYERSVILLE...TO PIKEVILLE...WILL SEE THE
BEST CHANCE OF SEEING SOME SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH 8 PM.
SOUTHWEST OF THIS BOUNDARY...CONVECTION LOOKS MORE UNLIKELY. EXPECT
MUCH OF THIS ACTIVITY TO DIE DOWN THIS EVENING...HOWEVER WILL HOLD
ONTO AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE POP OVERNIGHT WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
ANY TRAVERSING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES.

THE MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH THE REST OF THE SHORT
TERM...ALTHOUGH DETAILS CONTINUE TO BE A CHALLENGE. THE UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE AXIS WILL BE RIGHT OVER US TOMORROW...BEFORE DRIFTING EAST BY
THURSDAY. AS SUCH...WOULD EXPECT LESS CONVECTION FOR TOMORROW
AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND THEN A BIT MORE ON THURSDAY. INDIVIDUAL
SHORT WAVE TROUGHS WILL BE DIFFICULT TO TIME...SO HAVE GENERALLY USED
A DIURNAL TREND TO THE CONVECTION.

FOR TEMPERATURES...NEAR RECORD HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S ARE
EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY...WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER READINGS ON THURSDAY.
LOWS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE 60S DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIODS.

.LONG TERM.../FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/

LOOKING AT THE EXTENDED FORECAST BEGINNING ON FRIDAY...MODELS ARE
CONSISTENT ON A RATHER SLOW PROGRESSION TO AN UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER
THE CENTRAL PLAINS. THE EURO IS THE MODEL THAT REPRESENTS THIS
PATTERN THE BEST ALONG WITH SOME SUPPORT FROM THE GEM SO WILL LEAN
TO THE EURO/GEM FOR CHANGES. HOWEVER CONFIDENCE IS STILL LOW DUE TO
THE RATHER HARD TO PIN DOWN PROGRESSION OF THE UPPER LEVEL LOW
FRIDAY THROUGH THE REST OF THE EXTENDED. WITH NO PROMINENT SURFACE
FEATURE TO AID IN CONVECTION IN THE EXTENDED...LOWERED POPS AND WENT
WITH A MORE DIURNAL TREND TO THE EXTENDED. DID NOT SEE ANY POINT
WHERE SOME LARGE SCALE LIFT WOULD AID IN CONVECTION SO KEPT POPS IN
THE SLIGHT TO MID CHANCE RANGE. AS FOR TEMPERATURES...NO SPECIFIC
POINT OR BOUNDARY AVAILABLE PRESENT TO AFFECT TEMPS SO THEY WERE NOT
CHANGED MUCH AND ONLY SOME DIFFERENTIAL HEATING EFFECTS WERE ADDED.
OVERALL...A MURKY EXTENDED IS ON TAP WITH NO SOLID SURFACE FEATURE.
THEREFORE...WEATHER WILL BE CONVECTIVE DRIVEN.

&&

.AVIATION.../00Z TO 24Z/...UPDATED

THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS CONTINUING OVER NORTHERN KENTUCKY. JKL WILL
SEE THE BEST CHANCE OF THIS ACTIVITY BUT LOOKS TO STAY NORTH SO HAVE
ONLY INCLUDED VCTS FOR JKL. LOZ AND SME ARE ALREADY STARTING TO CLEAR
AND SAT PIC CONFIRMS THE OBS. EXPECT ACTIVITY TO WANE THIS EVENING
WITH SOME VALLEY FOG A GOOD BET ONCE AGAIN TOWARDS DAWN. A RENEWED
THREAT OF CONVECTION IS EXPECTED AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.
