EERWhat 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 Louisville, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 20, 1:33 AM EDT, 25 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 20, 1:33 AM EDT, 25 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY 133 AM EDT WED APR 20 2011 ...MESOSCALE UPDATE... ...WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WIND EVENT NOW SPREADING INTO EAST CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KENTUCKY... LARGE SQUALL LINE/BOW ECHO CONTINUES TO MOVE EASTWARD ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS MORNING. OVERALL...THE LINE HAS WEAKENED JUST A BIT AS INSTABILITY ACROSS EASTERN KY IS DECREASING DUE TO THE NOCTURNAL COOLING OF THE ATMOSPHERE. RADAR INDICATES THAT COLD POOL IS STARTING TO BECOME A BIT MORE DOMINANT AS A GUST FRONT IS STARTING TO PUSH OUT AHEAD OF THE MAIN LINE...ESPECIALLY ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL KENTUCKY. BASED ON RADAR ESTIMATES...THIS SQUALL LINE WILL IMPACT THE LEXINGTON METRO AREA WITHIN THE NEXT 30-45 MINUTES. LEXINGTON METRO SHOULD EXPECT INTENSE RAINFALL...WIND GUSTS UP TO 60-65 MPH ALONG WITH QUITE A BIT OF LIGHTNING. THESE WIND GUSTS WILL LIKELY RESULT IN SCATTERED POWER OUTAGES ALONG WITH TREES/TREE BRANCHES COMING DOWN. FURTHER SOUTH TOWARD THE BOWLING GREEN AREA...SQUALL LINE HAS BECOME SOMEWHAT EAST-WEST ORIENTED WITH A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF RAINFALL OCCURING JUST NORTHWEST OF THE BOWLING GREEN AREA. WE ARE MONITORING RAINFALL AMOUNTS AND FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS MAY BE REQUIRED IF TRAINING CONTINUES. THE SQUALL LINE IS FORECAST TO DROP SOUTHWARD INTO THE BOWLING GREEN AREA WITHIN THE NEXT HOUR. .SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY)... ...SEVERE WEATHER EPISODE LIKELY LATE THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. WIND DAMAGE...SOME OF IT POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT...AND ISOLATED TORNADOES EXPECTED... PARAMETERS STILL IN PLACE FOR A SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK OVER S-CENTRAL IND AND CENTRAL KY TONIGHT. LOW CLOUDS TRAPPED UNDERNEATH CAPPING INVERSION HAVE BEEN SLOW TO CLEAR THIS AFTERNOON...BUT ARE STARTING TO ERODE. TEMPS NOW WARMING NICELY WITH READINGS NOW IN MID 70S TO MID 80S. WARM FRONT...RESPONSIBLE FOR TSTMS THIS MORNING OVER PARTS OF SRN IND...HAS LIFTED JUST N OF AREA. AT THIS TIME...ANOTHER AXIS OF ENHANCED CLOUDS WAS LOCATED OVER SRN IL INTO SW IND WHERE SCT SHOWERS AND TSTMS COULD DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON WITHIN AREA OF SLOWLY ERODING CAPPING INVERSION ALOFT. 12Z NAM ACTUALLY RESOLVED THIS FEATURE AND DEVELOPS SOME WARM-SECTOR CONVECTION LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. WILL CONTINUE TO INCLUDE A CHANCE OF TSTMS OVER S-CENTRAL IND AND N-CENTRAL KY THROUGH EARLY EVENING TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS FEATURE. SPC HAS JUST ISSUED THE FIRST TORNADO WATCH FOR PARTS OF CENTRAL IL TO SRN/SW MO...THE AREA WHERE THE SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK WILL BEGIN. IN THIS AREA...INSTABILITY...INCREASING LOW-LEVEL SHEAR...AND INCREASING FORCING ALONG THE COLD FRONT WILL ALLOW TSTMS TO EXPAND RAPIDLY AS THE CAP IS BROKEN. CELLULAR-BASED CONVECTION (I.E. SUPERCELLS) IS LIKELY IN THIS AREA. THIS AREA WILL CONGEAL INTO A LINEAR MODE OF CONVECTION (I.E., SQUALL LINE) WITH BOWING SEGMENTS INCREASING IN NUMBER WITH TIME AS THE LINE MOVES E INTO THE LOWER OH VALLEY THIS EVENING. THE MODELS ARE USUALLY SLOW IN THE TIMING OF THE LINE AS THE COLD POOL ASSOCIATED WITH RAIN WITH THE STORMS HELPS TO ACCELERATE THE LINE FASTER THAN WOULD BE EXPECTED GIVEN AMBIENT WIND FIELDS. AS A RESULT...EXPECT LINE TO REACH OUR FAR NW COUNTY (DUBOIS) IN IND BY ABOUT 10 PM EDT...LOUISVILLE TO BOWLING GREEN AXIS ABOUT 11 PM OR MIDNIGHT...FRANKFORT ABOUT 12-2 AM AND LEXINGTON AROUND 2-3 AM EDT. ALTHOUGH CONVECTION WILL FORM ALONG AND JUST E OF THE FRONT IN MO THIS AFTERNOON...AFTER THE STORMS BECOME AN ORGANIZED LINE...THE LINE WILL RACE AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. MODELS HINT THAT A SECONDARY LINE OF AT LEAST SCT TSTMS COULD FORM ALONG THE ACTUAL FRONT A COUPLE/FEW HOURS AFTER THE INITIAL LINE. HOWEVER...THE INITIAL LINE WILL BE THE MAIN ONE TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT FOR SEVERE WEATHER... DESPITE THE TIME OF DAY (I.E. LATE EVENING/OVERNIGHT). AS FAR AS SEVERE POTENTIAL...TYPICALLY LINES OF STORMS DO NOT PRODUCE WIND DAMAGE ALONG THEIR ENTIRE LENGTH...ALTHOUGH GUSTY WINDS DO OCCUR ALONG MOST OF IT. THIS IS LIKELY TO BE THE CASE AGAIN TONIGHT. NEVERTHELESS...ORGANIZED BOW ECHOES ARE LIKELY TO OCCUR TONIGHT AND IN THIS CASE HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE SIGNIFICANT WIND DAMAGE (70-80 MPH WINDS) ALONG WITH ISOLATED/WIDELY SCATTERED TORNADOES. ANY TORNADOES WHICH FORM WILL LIKELY BE SHORT IN DURATION BUT COULD FORM QUICKLY AND DO DAMAGE. SOME CELLS MAY ALSO PRODUCE LARGE HAIL...BUT HAIL WILL BE A SECONDARY CONCERN TO THE WIND DAMAGE AND TORNADO POTENTIAL. ALSO...RAINFALL RATES WILL BE HIGH...BUT INTENSE RAINFALL WILL BE BRIEF SO NOT EXPECTING A WIDESPREAD FLOOD/ FLASH FLOOD EVENT AT THIS TIME...ALTHOUGH ISOLATED PROBLEMS MAY OCCUR. SINCE THE STORMS WILL BE OCCURRING LATE THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD...A MORE ATYPICAL TIME OF OCCURRENCE FOR US...AND SINCE PEOPLE MAY BE SLEEPING...PEOPLE ARE ENCOURAGED TO HAVE A DEFINITE PLAN OF ACTION AND KNOW WHAT TO DO WHEN WARNINGS ARE ISSUED OR WEATHER CONDITIONS DETERIORATE RAPIDLY. THE SEVERE POTENTIAL WILL NOT LAST LONG AT ANY ONE LOCATION SINCE STORMS WILL BE RACING EWD. AFTER THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH WED MORNING...MODELS SHOW LOW-LEVEL CLOUDS HANGING IN DURING THE MORNING BEFORE CLEARING STARTS TO RETURN BY AFTERNOON AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN. IN OTHER WORDS...IT WILL BE A MUCH CALMER DAY AFTER A POTENTIALLY BUSY AND STORMY NIGHT. .LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY NIGHT - TUESDAY)... DIDN/T SPEND AS MUCH TIME ON THE LONG TERM TODAY DUE TO SIGNIFICANT CONCERNS IN THE SHORT TERM...BUT WAS ABLE TO GIVE IT A QUICK LOOK. WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY STILL LOOK PRIMARILY DRY. CAN/T COMPLETELY RULE OUT A STRAY POP-UP THUNDERSTORM THURSDAY AFTERNOON IN THE SOUTH SO WILL HOLD ON TO TINY POPS THEN. THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE STILL EXPECTED TO INCREASE THURSDAY NIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES ALONG THE KANSAS/OKLAHOMA BORDER AND A WARM FRONT SHARPENS FROM THE LOW TO THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS. THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY IN A MOIST UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WITH THE WARM FRONT NEARBY. WE MAY GET A BRIEF BREAK FRIDAY EVENING AS THE WARM FRONT LIFTS TO THE NORTH. THUNDERSTORMS WILL THEN RETURN LATE FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES BY TO OUR NORTHWEST AND SWINGS A COLD FRONT INTO THE REGION. MODELS CONTINUE TO GROW MORE SHEEPISH ABOUT THE CHANCES OF SEVERE WEATHER WITH THIS SYSTEM. A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO SEVERE WEATHER LOOKED LIKE A GOOD BET...BUT NOW THERE IS MORE UNCERTAINTY. THE FUTURE OF THIS SYSTEM IS IN QUESTION AS WELL. THE GFS STILL WANTS TO STALL IT OUT ROUGHLY ALONG THE OHIO RIVER KEEPING US WET. THE ECMWF STILL WANTS TO LIFT IT BACK NORTH OUT OF THE REGION KEEPING US DRY. THE GFS SOLUTION DOES HAVE SOME WEAK SUPPORT FROM THE GEM ENSEMBLE MEAN AND GFS ENSEMBLE MEAN. THE ECMWF HAS TRENDED JUST A BIT CLOSER TO THE GFS AND WE ARE CURRENTLY IN A WET PATTERN. THUS...WILL HOLD ON TO THE SMALL POPS WE ALREADY HAD GOING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. MONDAY-MONDAY NIGHT STAND A DECENT CHANCE AT BEING RELATIVELY DRY...THEN A COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE IS ON TAP FOR TUESDAY. && .AVIATION (06Z TAF ISSUANCE)... MATURE SQUALL LINE CURRENTLY MOVING THROUGH SOUTHERN INDIANA AND CENTRAL KENTUCKY EARLY THIS MORNING. CURRENTLY THE SYSTEM IS MOVING THROUGH LOUISVILLE INTERNATIONAL...BUT THE WORST OF THE SEVERE CONDITIONS WILL BE EAST OF KSDF BY 20/06Z. THE SQUALL LINE WILL EVENTUALLY AFFECT BLUEGRASS FIELD IN LEXINGTON. BASED ON RADAR ESTIMATES THE LINE SHOULD BE IMPACTING THE TERMINAL BY 20/06Z. WE EXPECT IFR CONDITIONS WITH SFC WINDS GUSTING AS HIGH TO 40-50KTS. FURTHER SOUTH AT KBWG...SQUALL LINE IS TAKING A BIT MORE OF AN EAST-WEST ORIENTATION AND DIPPING SLOWLY TO THE SOUTH. LATEST RADAR IMAGERY SHOWING A BIT OF A GUST FRONT COMING OUT OF THE LINE AND THAT MAY IMPACT KBWG BEFORE THE RAIN GETS THERE. ADDITIONAL CONVECTION IN SOUTHWEST KENTUCKY WILL ALSO IMPACT KBWG...SO STORMY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THERE FOR MUCH OF THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. && .LMK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KY...NONE.

SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK EXPECTED LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT OVER SOUTH CENTRAL INDIANA AND CENTRAL KENTUCKY. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE REGION LATE TONIGHT. THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE INTO THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA AROUND 10 PM EDT TONIGHT. THE STORMS WILL RACE EASTWARD BETWEEN 10 PM AND 4 AM ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. THE STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WINDS OVER 60 MPH...WITH ISOLATED DESTRUCTIVE WINDS OF 70 TO 80 MPH. ISOLATED TORNADOES ARE ALSO EXPECTED...ALONG WITH SOME HAIL. HEAVY RAINFALL WITH TOTALS OF 1 TO 1.5 INCHES WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS...IS ALSO LIKELY. SINCE THESE SEVERE AND POTENTIALLY FLASH FLOOD PRODUCING STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO AFFECT THE OUTLOOK AREA AT NIGHT...WE HIGHLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO SET YOUR NOAA WEATHER RADIO TO ALERT MODE SO THAT YOU CAN BE AWAKENED IN THE EVENT THAT A WARNING IS ISSUED WHILE YOU ARE ASLEEP. MANY SEVERE WEATHER AS WELL AS FLASH FLOOD FATALITIES OCCUR LATE AT NIGHT. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY.

THIS SYSTEM HAS LOST SOME OF ITS POTENCY IN RECENT FORECASTS...STAY TUNED TO SEE HOW THIS NEXT SYSTEM SHAPES UP. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. HEAVY RAINS FROM THE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO CAUSE RISING WATER LEVELS ON AREA RIVERS...INCLUDING THE OHIO...AND MAY RESULT IN FLASH FLOODS AND AREAL FLOODING AS WELL. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
