AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
644 AM EDT MON MAY 2 2011
...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION...
.SHORT TERM (TODAY AND TONIGHT)...
A POSITIVELY TILTED TROUGH OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS WILL FINALLY
BEGIN TO MOVE EAST THIS AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...RIDGING OVER THE
SOUTHEAST STATES WILL BE SLOW TO MOVE. A STRONG JET STRETCHING FROM
TEXAS THROUGH LAKE MICHIGAN WILL MOVE SLIGHTLY TO THE EAST TODAY.
SOUTHWEST FLOW AND AMPLE MOISTURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE LOWER OHIO
VALLEY TODAY. EXCESSIVE RAINS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE MORNING
HOURS OVER SOUTHWESTERN INDIANA AND SOUTH CENTRAL INDIANA. THROUGH 3
AM...AROUND 2 INCHES OF RAIN HAD FALLEN OVER THE PAST THREE HOURS
OVER DUBOIS AND ORANGE COUNTIES. WITH AN EXPECTATION THAT ANOTHER 1
TO 2 INCHES WILL FALL OVER THESE SAME AREAS THROUGH DAWN...HAVE
ISSUED A FLOOD ADVISORY THROUGH AT LEAST 7 AM ACROSS SOUTHWEST
INDIANA. HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WARNING FOR DUBOIS AND ORANGE
COUNTIES.
THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE TRAINING JUST TO THE NORTHWEST OF A
SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT...WHICH JUST NOW IS PRACTICALLY SITTING ALONG
THE OHIO RIVER. THEY ARE BEING FED BY A WAVE MOVING NORTHEAST ACROSS
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS...AND A STRONG LOW LEVEL JET IMPINGING UPON THIS
FRONTAL BOUNDARY.
THE SPC WRF AGAIN HAS BEEN VERY ACCURATE IN FORECASTING THE LOCATION
OF THESE CURRENT TRAINING STORMS. LATER THIS MORNING...EXPECT
PRECIPITATION TO SLOWLY BEGIN TO MOVE SOUTHEAST OF THE OHIO RIVER
AND INTO WEST CENTRAL KENTUCKY AS THE SURFACE FRONT SLIDES
SOUTHEAST...EVENTUALLY ALIGNING ALONG THE BLUEGRASS PARKWAY BY LATE
MORNING OR EARLY AFTERNOON.
EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO LESSON CONSIDERABLY LATER THIS MORNING AS AS IT
MOVES INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KENTUCKY AND THE BLUEGRASS REGION. THIS
WILL BE DUE IN PART TO THE LOSS OF THE NOCTURNAL LOW LEVEL JET.
ALTHOUGH ISOLATED THUNDER CANNOT BE RULED OUT TODAY...FEEL THAT
PRECIP WILL MORPH INTO A MORE GENERAL RAIN.
BY THIS AFTERNOON...THE FRONT WILL LIE SOUTHEAST OF THE CUMBERLAND
PARKWAY. VERY COOL TEMPERATURES WILL OVERSPREAD SOUTHERN INDIANA AND
KENTUCKY ALONG THE OHIO RIVER WITH NORTH WINDS AND TEMPERATURES
REMAINING IN THE 50S.
RAIN WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT AS ANOTHER WEAK WAVE RIDES NORTHEAST
ALONG THE COLD FRONT.
.LONG TERM (TUESDAY - SUNDAY)...
PERIOD BEGINS WITH AN UPPER TROUGH...POSSIBLE CLOSED LOW...FOCUSED
OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST WITH A TRAILING VORTMAX INTO THE MID MS RIVER
VALLEY. FRONTAL BOUNDARY LOOKS TO BE OVER EASTERN KY/TN WITH
CONTINUED TRAILING RAINS FROM STRONG MOISTURE FEED ALOFT AHEAD OF
THE UPPER TROUGH. FORTUNATELY THE PUSH OF THIS UPPER SYSTEM WILL
MOVE THE RAIN EAST OF THE REGION...LEAVING RAIN CHANCES ONLY ACROSS
THE EASTERN AND SOUTHEAST CWA TUESDAY NIGHT. EXPECTING ANOTHER HALF
INCH TO INCH OF RAIN TO FALL ACROSS A LARGE AREA WITH THIS LAST
PUSH...SO CURRENT FLOOD WATCH TO TUESDAY AFTERNOON STILL LOOKS GOOD.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION WEDNESDAY...WITH THE CENTER
OVER THE REGION BY THURSDAY. ALOFT...UPPER TROUGH AXIS WILL BE JUST
OVER AREA WEDNESDAY MORNING...PUSHING INTO THE ATLANTIC BY THURSDAY
MORNING. CONCERN AT THIS POINT MAY BE PATCHY FROST IN THE NORMALLY
COLDER LOCATIONS. LOOKS LIKE THURSDAY HAS THE BETTER CHANCE WITH THE
PLACEMENT OF THE HIGH CENTER AND EXPECTED CLEAR SKIES. GIVEN THAT IT
IS BORDERLINE CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE NOT TO MENTION FROST IN
PRODUCTS.
THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...THE HIGH CENTER WILL BE OVER THE
SOUTHEAST U.S. A WEAK DISTURBANCE LOOKS TO DROP DOWN OUT OF THE
NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. THIS SYSTEM SHOULD MOVE THROUGH QUICKLY AND
NOT BRING ADDITIONAL FLOOD CONCERNS. GIVEN TIMING DIFFERENCES IN THE
MODELS WILL KEEP LOW-END POPS IN FOR BOTH THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY.
BY FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...YET ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM LOOKS TO
DEVELOP ACROSS THE PLAINS. THIS LOW PRESSURE/S WARM FRONT WILL LIFT
ACROSS THE MID-MS VALLEY REGION SATURDAY. GFS KEEPS WARM FRONTAL
ACTIVITY WELL NW OF THE AREA...BUT THE EURO DOES EXTEND THAT WARM
FRONT THIS FAR EAST...PUSHING IT FROM S TO N ACROSS THE CWA
SATURDAY. IF THE GFS PANS OUT...WE WILL JUST BE WARM AND MOIST WITH
SHOWERS AND STORMS MOVING IN SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. BUT IF THE
EURO PANS OUT...WE COULD HAVE WARM FRONTAL MIDDAY-AFTERNOON SHOWERS
AND STORMS SATURDAY. EITHER SOLUTION THOUGH DROPS THE LOW PRESSURE
AND SYSTEM/S COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AREA SUNDAY...BUT SATURDAY FOR
NOW IS STILL IN QUESTION. REGARDLESS...IT WILL BE WARM.
&&
.AVIATION (12Z TAF ISSUANCE)...
A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH OF BOWLING GREEN AND
LEXINGTON BY LATE MORNING. BEHIND THIS BOUNDARY...WINDS WILL BECOME
NORTHWEST AT 10 MPH AND CONTINUE AS SUCH THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
OCCASIONAL SHOWERS AND MVFR CIGS WILL CONTINUE AT BWG AND SDF
THROUGH THE EARLY TO MID AFTERNOON. SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL ARRIVE AT
LEX AROUND 12Z THIS MORNING. IN GENERAL...THE INDIVIDUAL SHOWERS
WILL BE RELATIVELY LIGHT WITH HIGH END MVFR VISIBILITIES.
BY LATE AFTERNOON OR EARLY EVENING...A MORE WIDESPREAD RAIN WILL
DEVELOP AS A SECOND WAVE MOVES ACROSS CENTRAL KENTUCKY. EXPECT MVFR
VISIBILITIES AND LOW END MVFR CEILINGS OVERNIGHT WITH NORTH WINDS OF
5 TO 10 MPH.
