AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
658 AM EDT TUE APR 12 2011

...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

.SHORT TERM (TODAY AND TONIGHT)...

NEARLY VERTICALLY STACKED LOWS ACRS SERN KY AT 07Z WITH SURFACE LOW
CONTINUING TO STRENGTHEN. AS A RESULT...MOISTURE FROM THE GULF
CONTINUES TO WRAP AROUND SYS WITH SATELLITE COOLING TOPS/EMBEDDED
TSTMS IN VERY SLOW MOVING WIDESPREAD RAINS ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA.
WHILE RAINS HAVE NOT BEEN EXCESSIVE...RATES OF ONE HALF TO 1 INCH AN
HOUR ARE COMMON. STREAMS...ESPECIALLY THE SMALLER ONES IN MUCH OF
OUR CWA WILL LIKELY GO INTO FLOOD TODAY WITH 2 TO 4 INCHES OR MORE
OF TOTAL RAIN BEFORE THE BULK OF THE SYSTEM DEPARTS THIS MORNING.
HAVE ALREADY ISSUED A RIVER FLOOD WARNING FOR DEPUTY ON THE
MUSCATATUCK RIVER IN SOUTHERN INDIANA AND ADDITIONAL RIVER FLOOD
WARNINGS MAY BE NEEDED LATER THIS MORNING.

AFTER SYSTEM DEPARTURE THIS MORNING...SKIES WILL CLEAR FROM WEST TO
EAST AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRES BUILDS IN. RIDGE WILL BE OVERHEAD
TONIGHT AND WITH CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS...FROST WILL BE A
CONCERN. WILL MENTION IN HWO.

.LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY - MONDAY)...

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT...

MID-LEVEL RIDGING AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE ESTABLISHED
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA BY WEDNESDAY...WHICH WILL KEEP THE REGION
RELATIVELY DRY WEDNESDAY THROUGH THE DAY THURSDAY. TEMPERATURES
THROUGH THIS PERIOD WILL SEE DAILY HIGHS IN THE LOWER 70S WITH
OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE LOW TO MID 40S FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

BY LATE THURSDAY...A FAIRLY STRONG AND LARGE UPPER TROUGH MOVES INTO
THE UPPER PLAINS. THE LATEST GFS...ECMWF...AND NAEFS CONTINUE TO
ILLUSTRATE THE CLOSING OFF OF THE APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
ACROSS THE PLAINS FRIDAY...WITH A SLOW MIGRATION TOWARD THE GREAT
LAKES BY SATURDAY. AS THIS SYSTEM STRENGTHENS...STRONG SOUTHERLY
FLOW WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE REGION AND SPREAD MOISTURE BACK INTO
THE OHIO VALLEY. MODELS CONTINUE TO HAVE TIMING ISSUES...WHICH
AFFECTS THE QUALITY AND DEPTH OF MOISTURE ADVECTION. HOWEVER...IT
STILL APPEARS DEWPOINTS WILL INCREASE INTO THE UPPER 50S/LOWER 60S
BY FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT. WITH A 120 KNOT CYCLONICALLY CURVED JET
SWINGING INTO THE REGION...THERE WILL BE ENOUGH UPPER-LEVEL SUPPORT
TO RESULT IN WIDESPREAD LIFT FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. MODEL
CONSENSUS INDICATES THE BEST CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE FROM
VERY LATE THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING.

THE SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE REGION FRIDAY...WITH
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE. WITH THE DEPTH OF MOISTURE
AND QUESTIONABLE INSTABILITY...THE OVERALL THREAT OF SEVERE STORMS
IS STILL IN QUESTION. HOWEVER...GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE FORECAST
UPPER-LEVEL DYNAMICS...STRONG FORCING WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO
OVERCOME MARGINAL MOISTURE/STABILITY.

LOWS THURSDAY NIGHT WILL BE RATHER MILD WITH LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE
LOW TO MID 50S EXPECTED. HIGHS FRIDAY SHOULD WARM BACK INTO THE LOW
TO MID 70S BEFORE THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE FRIDAY NIGHT. LOWS FRIDAY
NIGHT LOOK SHOULD  DROP INTO THE LOWER 40S IN THE WEST AND MID 40S
ACROSS THE EAST.

THE REMAINING DISCUSSION IS FROM THE PREVIOUS FORECAST...ISSUED AT
319 PM MONDAY...AND REMAINS VALID.

SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY...

IN THE LONG TERM PERIOD...BOTH THE 11/12Z GFS AND EURO SOLUTIONS
CONTINUE TO SHOW A DEEP 500 HPA LOW SLOWLY TRANSLATING EASTWARD
ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES STATES DURING THE EARLY PART OF THE FORECAST
PERIOD.  BOTH MODELS SHOW THE SYSTEM BECOMING VERTICALLY STACKED BY
SATURDAY NIGHT WITH THE SYSTEM PULLING OUT A BIT FASTER THAN
PREVIOUS SOLUTIONS SHOWED.  SATURDAY STILL LOOKS TO BE A RATHER COOL
AND CLOUDY DAY WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS MOVING ACROSS THE REGION.
GIVEN THE NORTHWEST FLOW...SHOWERS WILL LIKELY BE CONTAINED TO OUR
BLUEGRASS/NORTHEASTERN REGIONS.  FAIRLY TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL
BE IN PLACE AS WELL...SO BREEZY CONDITIONS STILL LOOK LIKELY.  BY
SATURDAY NIGHT...THE SYSTEM WILL START TO MOVE AWAY WITH DRIER AIR
WORKING IN FROM THE WEST.  SOME RAIN SHOWERS WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE
SATURDAY EVENING ACROSS THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST SECTIONS...AND MODEL
SOUNDINGS SHOW THAT SOME LIGHT SNOW MAY MIX IN.  HOWEVER...OVERALL
BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPERATURE IS A BIT WARMER IN BOTH THE DETERMINISTIC
AND ENSEMBLE RUNS...SO AM ONLY GOING TO SLIGHT CHANCE OF SNOW IN THE
GRIDS FOR SATURDAY NIGHT.   SUNDAY SHOULD SEE THE AREA BETWEEN
WEATHER SYSTEMS AS A FAST MOVING WAVE WITHIN THE NEARLY ZONAL FLOW
ALOFT WILL MOVE THROUGH LATE SUNDAY AND INTO MONDAY.  QUITE A BIT OF
SPREAD IN THIS TIME FRAME IN THE ENSEMBLES THUS PLAN ON LEAVING
MONDAY DRY AT THIS POINT.

TEMPERATURES THROUGH THIS TIME PERIOD WILL BE BELOW NORMAL WITH
HIGHS ON SATURDAY WARMING INTO THE UPPER 40S AND LOWER 50S WITH LOWS
SATURDAY NIGHT COOLING INTO THE MID-UPPER 30S.  WE SHOULD SEE
MODERATING TEMPERATURES FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY WITH HIGHS WARMING
INTO THE MID-UPPER 50S ON SUNDAY AND INTO THE LOWER 60S BY MONDAY
WHILE OVERNIGHT TEMPS COOL INTO THE UPPER 30S AND LOWER 40S.

&&

.AVIATION (12Z TAF ISSUANCE)...

STRENGTHENING LOW PRESSURE OVER EASTERN KENTUCKY WILL CONTINUE TO
MOVE SLOWLY EASTWARD INTO VIRGINIA BY THIS AFTERNOON. AS THIS SYSTEM
DEPARTS...GUSTY NORTH-NORTHWEST WINDS WILL WEAKEN AND IFR/MVFR
CONDITIONS AT KLEX AND KBWG WILL IMPROVE THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS.
KLEX WILL TAKE THE LONGEST TO CLEAR AS THE WRAP-AROUND MOISTURE
HANGS ACROSS THE BLUEGRASS REGION. VFR CONDITIONS CURRENTLY PRESENT
ACROSS THE LOUISVILLE METRO AREA WILL CONTINUE...WITH SKIES CLEARING
BY LATE THIS MORNING. KBWG WILL CLEAR OUT BY THIS AFTERNOON...WITH
KLEX CLEARING BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON.
