AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
938 PM EDT WED APR 27 2011

...MESOSCALE UPDATE...

SFC LOW CONTINUES TO MOVE THROUGH SOUTHWEST INDIANA THIS EVENING.
SFC COLD FRONT NOW THROUGH EVANSVILLE INDIANA AND NOW PUSHING INTO
OUR FAR WESTERN COUNTIES.  LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
CONTINUES TO HEAD EASTWARD AND WILL BE ARRIVING IN THE I-65 CORRIDOR
IN THE NEXT 60-90 MINUTES.

INSTABILITY ACROSS THE REGION REMAINS QUITE MARGINAL FOR ORGANIZED
SEVERE WEATHER.  DESPITE STRONG SHEAR...THE INSTABILITY WAS NEVER
ABLE TO WORK NORTHWARD INTO THE REGION.  ON THE OTHER HAND...WE HAD
SOME PRETTY GOOD CONVECTION ACROSS THE EAST WHICH HAS DUMPED QUITE A
BIT OF RAINFALL ACROSS OUR EASTERN COUNTIES.  ADDITIONAL CONVECTION
WILL AFFECT THIS REGION FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS.

SHOULD CONVECTION MAINTAIN ITS DOWNWARD TREND...WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO
START CLEARING THE TORNADO WATCH FROM WEST TO EAST. WE WILL BE
COLLABORATING WITH SPC ON THAT OVER THE NEXT HOUR.

ON THE HYDRO SIDE OF THINGS...WE HAVE EXTENDED THE AREAL FLOOD
WARNING FOR MUCH OF SOUTHERN INDIANA AND WEST-CENTRAL KENTUCKY FOR
ANOTHER 24 HOURS.  REPORTS FROM NWS SURVEY CREWS OUT SURVEYING
PREVIOUS TORNADO DAMAGE ALONG WITH CALLS TO OTHER COUNTIES REVEAL
THAT NUMEROUS ROADS REMAIN UNDERWATER DUE TO ALL THE EXCESSIVE
RAINFALL.

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND THURSDAY)...

...SEVERE WEATHER STILL APPEARS LIKELY OVER MUCH OF FCST AREA LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...

SHORT TERM FCST SCENARIO CONTINUES TO EVOLVE AND BECOME A LITTLE
CLEARER THIS AFTERNOON...ALTHOUGH STILL UNCERTAINLY EXISTS AS TO
COVERAGE OF SEVERE POTENTIAL. CURRENTLY...RAIN AND EMBEDDED
CONVECTION COVERS MUCH OF CENTRAL KY ON NRN EXTENT OF RAPIDLY
DEVELOPING SEVERE CONVECTION/SUPERCELLS OVER MIDDLE TN AND MS. THIS
AREA IS OCCURRING ALONG AND EAST OF UPPER JET AXIS WHICH IS PUNCHING
NEWD ACROSS THE LOWER MS VALLEY EAST OF MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE. THIS IS
THE PRIMARY FOCUS AREA (TN MS AL) FOR WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER AND
TORNADOES AS PER THE OUTLOOK FROM THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER. THE
ACTIVITY ON NRN EXTENT OVER CENTRAL KY IS WITHIN AN AIR MASS WHICH
IS NOT VERY UNSTABLE AT THIS TIME...AND ACTIVITY HAS REMAINED BENIGN
SO FAR THIS AFTERNOON.

AT THE SAME TIME...THUNDERSTORMS WITH HAIL ARE OCCURRING OVER SERN
MO AND NRN ARK ALONG AND LEFT OF THE UPPER JET STREAK (LEFT EXIT
REGION) WITHIN AREA OF COOL AIR ALOFT JUST AHEAD OF THE MID-LEVEL
SHORTWAVE. THESE CELLS WILL ROTATE NNEWD FOR THE REST OF THE
AFTERNOON INTO ERN MO SRN IL AND WRN KY.

OUR BEST CHANCE OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS APPEARS TO BE IN THE
DOWNWIND NOSE OF THE DRY SLOT...I.E. ALONG THE AXIS OF THE UPPER
LEVEL JET IN THE EXIT REGION. THIS WOULD OCCUR AS CELLS CONTINUE TO
DEVELOP ON THE WRN EDGE OF THE MOIST AXIS FROM WRN KY TO NRN MS AND
MOVE NNEWD. AREA RADARS ALREADY SHOW NUMEROUS CELLS IN THIS AXIS
WHICH WILL WORK INTO CENTRAL KY LATER THIS AFTERNOON. AT THIS TIME
THERE IS NOT A GREAT DEAL OF ORGANIZATION TO THESE CELLS...BUT THIS
COULD CHANGE AS THE AIR MASS IN THE NOSE OF THE DRY SLOT
DESTABILIZES TO THE WEST OF THE CURRENT ACTIVITY FROM WRN KY TO NRN
MS. THE GREATEST INSTABILITY ACTUALLY SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE JUST
TO THE WEST OF THE ONGOING AND EXPECTED STORMS...ALLOWING MORE CELLS
TO DEVELOP IN THE NOSE OF THE JET AND ON THE WRN END OF THE CURRENT
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. IN ADDITION...THE KLVX DOPPLER RADAR VERTICAL
WIND PROFILE SHOWS THAT LOW-LEVEL WINDS HAVE INCREASED GRADUALLY
OVER THE LAST FEW HOURS (PER MODEL FCSTS) IN RESPONSE TO THE
MID-TO-UPPER-LEVEL JET STREAK AND AS A SURFACE LOW SLOWLY WORKS NEWD
FROM NERN ARK. AS A RESULT...ALTHOUGH IT IS LESS CLEAR CUT HOW
SEVERE WEATHER WILL EVOLVE OVER OUR AREA (VERSUS IN THE NRN GULF
STATES)...PARAMETERS ARE STILL THERE FOR AN ORGANIZED SEVERE THREAT
TO DEVELOP LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING ALONG AND EAST OF THE
COLD FRONT AS THE SURFACE LOW RIDES NE ALONG THIS BOUNDARY. WE WILL
CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE SITUATION.

ASSUMING SEVERE STRUMS EVOLVE...BOWING SEGMENTS WOULD BE THE MOST
LIKELY STORM MODE GIVEN EXPECTED RAPID STORM MOVEMENT...AND AS DRIER
AIR ALOFT WITHIN THE DRY SLOT POTENTIALLY MIXES INTO THE BACK SIDE
OF STORMS ENHANCING EVAPORATIVE COOLING AND DOWNDRAFTS. HAIL ALSO
MAY OCCUR WITH CELLS CLOSEST TO THE DRIER AIR ALOFT. WITH THE
EXPECTED SHEAR PROFILE...SOME TORNADOES ALSO COULD OCCUR ASSOCIATED
WITH SUPERCELLS AND BOWING SEGMENTS. HEAVY RAIN MAY RENEW FLASH
FLOOD PROBLEMS.

ALL THIS MESS WILL FINALLY MOVE OUT LATER TONIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT
SWEEPS THROUGH AND SWITCHES WINDS TO QUITE GUSTY FROM THE SW. LOW
CLOUDS WILL ALSO MOVE IN BEHIND THE SYSTEM...ESPECIALLY OVER NRN
AREAS WHERE A FEW BENIGN SHOWERS COULD OCCUR OVERNIGHT.

ON THURSDAY...REMAINING LOW CLOUDS OVER NRN AND ERN AREAS WILL CLEAR
OUT. AS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE ROTATES EWD ACROSS THE LOWER GREAT LAKES
THURSDAY AFTERNOON...MODELS SUGGEST ENOUGH MOISTURE AND COOL AIR
ALOFT TO STEEPEN LAPSE RATES SUFFICIENTLY FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
LOW-TOP THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NRN PARTS OF OUR FCST AREA...POSSIBLY
WITH SMALL HAIL IN THE STRONGEST CELLS. ANY ADDITIONAL RAINFALL
WHICH OCCURS WILL BE BRIEF AND SHOULD NOT COMPLICATE FLOODING
ISSUES. ANY CELLS WILL WEAKEN QUICKLY BY OR AFTER SUNSET THURSDAY
EVENING.

.LONG TERM (THURSDAY NIGHT - WEDNESDAY)...

THURSDAY NIGHT - SATURDAY...

WE WILL SIT IN AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT KEEPING LOW
CLOUDS AND SOME LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS AROUND. BOTH THE NAM/GFS AGREE ON
A SHRORTWAVE BRINGING IN SOME LIGHT PRECIP OVER THE ENTIRE AREA THUR
NIGHT. QPF AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT UNDER A TENTH OF AN
INCH.

FRIDAY AND MUCH OF SATURDAY WILL BE DRY DUE TO A RIDGE OF HIGH
PRESSURE. SOME MUCH WANTED SUNSHINE WILL MAKE AN APPEARANCE FINALLY.

TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY WILL WARM TO AROUND 70...WITH HIGHS ON
SATURDAY WARMING TO THE MID AND UPPER 70S. WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH
SOME MID AND UPPER LEVEL CLOUDS MOVING BACK INTO THE AREA LATE
SATURDAY.

SATURDAY NIGHT - MONDAY...

A WETTER PERIOD OF WEATHER FOR THE END OF THE WEEK AND FIRST PART
OF NEXT WEEK IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY LIKELY AS MODELS HAVE COME
INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH SLOWLY MOVING FRONTAL BOUNDARY SAGGING
ACROSS THE AREA. THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL APPROACH THE AREA ON
SATURDAY NIGHT AS SHORTWAVE TROUGH ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND
ITS ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW MOVE INTO WESTERN ONTARIO. PERSISTENT
SOUTHEAST ATLANTIC RIDGE WILL DO ITS BEST TO HOLD GROUND...HELPING
TO STALL THE PROGRESSION OF THE FRONT AS OPEN SHORTWAVE OVER ONTARIO
CLOSES OFF AND HEADS DUE NORTH. BEST CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE WEST OF I 65 SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY...
EVERYWHERE ON SUNDAY NIGHT...AND EAST OF I 65 ON MONDAY. TIMING HAS
TRENDED SLIGHTLY SLOWER WITH THIS FRONTAL PROGRESSION DEPENDING ON
HOW WELL RIDGING TO THE EAST HOLDS UP. HAVE CONTINUED TO INCREASE
POPS AND HAVE INCLUDED LIKELY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON SUNDAY
NIGHT ALONG AND WEST OF I 65.. CURRENTLY WITH FRONTAL PROGRESSION
QUITE SLOW...QPF COULD AMOUNT TO AN INCH TO AN INCH AND A HALF
THROUGH THE EVENT...HOWEVER WITH SEVERAL DAYS RECOVERY AHEAD OF THIS
RAIN...FEEL IMPACTS WOULD BE LIMITED TO SLOWER REGRESSION OF THE
AREA RIVERS.

EXPECT HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 70S ON SUNDAY AND IN THE UPPER
60S ON MONDAY WITH LOWS ON SATURDAY NIGHT IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S
AND SUNDAY NIGHT IN THE LOWER 50S.

MONDAY NIGHT - WEDNESDAY...

HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS BACK INTO THE AREA KEEPING THINGS DRY...WITH
HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE 60S AND 70 AND LOWS IN THE MID 40S.

&&

.AVIATION (00Z TAF ISSUANCE)...

SFC COLD FRONT NOW APPROACHING THE MS RIVER AREA AND SHOULD PASS
THROUGH KPAH WITHIN THE HOUR.  DRY SLOT EVIDENT ON BOTH WV AND VIS
SATELLITE IMAGERY.  CONVECTION HAS BEEN SLOW TO DEVELOP WITHIN THE
DRY SLOT DESPITE THE FAVORABLE SHEAR PROFILES.  MOST LIKELY IS THAT
THE SHEAR IS SO STRONG THAT UPDRAFTS ARE LIKELY NOT BEING ABLE TO
STAY VERTICAL THUS THEY HAVE BEEN FALLING APART AS QUICKLY AFTER
THEY DEVELOP.  NONETHELESS...THERE IS A BAND OF SHOWERS AND STORMS
JUST AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND THIS MAY RACE NORTHEAST AND CLIP KSDF
LATER THIS EVENING.  FURTHER SOUTH SCATTERED CONVECTION CONTINUES TO
DEVELOP THIS MAY IMPACT KBWG THIS EVENING THUS WILL KEEP THE VCTS
WORDING IN AT BOTH KSDF/KBWG.  MORE EXTENSIVE AREA OF SHOWERS AND
STORMS WERE AFFECTING THE KLEX AREA.  WILL CONTINUE SHRA AND VCTS
THERE FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS AND THEN PLAIN SHOWERS LATER ON.
SHOULD SEE A WIND SHIFT IN THE TERMINALS BETWEEN 28/06-08Z WITH
WINDS GOING TO 250-270 DEGREES.  MVFR CIGS ARE LIKELY OVERNIGHT AS
LOW CLOUDS MOVE THROUGH THE REGION.  SHOULD SEE SOME PARTIAL
CLEARING BY 28/13-15Z.
