AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
722 AM EDT WED APR 27 2011

...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

...FORECAST UPDATE...

UPDATED THE PRODUCTS TO INCLUDE A NEW TORNADO WATCH FOR THE EASTERN
HALF OF THE CWA. HAVE HAD SOME LOW LEVEL CIRCULATIONS WITH THE MAIN
LINE OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF HOURS. MOST ORGANIZED PORTION AND
LEADING EDGE OF THE LINE IS MOVING INTO AN AREA THAT HAS NOT BEEN
WORKED OVER AND STABLE LAYER AT THE SURFACE SHOULD BE SLIGHTLY LESS.
THEREFORE...WITH RESPECT TO THE INCREDIBLE WIND SHEAR PROFILES...
TORNADO THREAT SHOULD CONTINUE THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS EAST OF I
65. TORNADO WATCH IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 AM EDT. WILL CONTINUE TO
MONITOR THE POTENTIAL FOR DESTABILIZATION AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING AND THE REDEVELOPMENT OF STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS. BEST
CHANCE FOR SEVERE...INCLUDING THE POTENTIAL FOR TORNADOES...
CONTINUES TO BE IN THE SOUTHEASTERN CWA. HOWEVER...LOOKING AT
CLEARING RAPIDLY MOVING IN FROM THE WEST AND CONVECTION FIRING OVER
SOUTHERN AR WITH SECONDARY LOW PRESSURE...FEEL THE CHANCES ARE
INCREASING THAT MODERATE RISK WILL BE MOVED WEST AND WE WILL SEE
SEVERE STORMS FIRE UP AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. WILL
CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST TRENDS. PUBLIC SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE
READY FOR A SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EPISODE ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA
LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

.SHORT TERM (TODAY AND TONIGHT)...

...WIDESPREAD FLOODING RAINFALL LIKELY EARLY THIS MORNING FOLLOWED
BY A POSSIBLE OUTBREAK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON...

ANOTHER ACTIVE EARLY MORNING HERE IN THE OHIO VALLEY AS LARGE BATCH
OF MODERATE OF HEAVY RAINFALL SLOWLY MOVING THROUGH THE REGION.
STILL HAVE SEVERAL AREAS OF STRONGER STORMS MOVING THE REGION.
OVERALL SHEAR AND INSTABILITY PROFILES REMAIN STRONG ENOUGH FOR
ROTATING UPDRAFTS IN THE STRONGER STORMS.  CURRENTLY IT APPEARS
THAT WE'RE SEEING THE LAST BOWING SEGMENT COMING INTO OUR SOUTHWEST
SECTIONS.  THIS FEATURE WILL LIKELY MOVE NORTHEAST AND AFFECT OUR
SOUTH-CENTRAL AND PORTIONS OF NORTH-CENTRAL KENTUCKY THIS
MORNING.  IN ADDITION TO THESE HEAVY STORMS...VERY HEAVY RAINFALL IS
SLOWLY MOVING ACROSS THE REGION.  AREAS SUCH AS SOUTHERN INDIANA AND
NORTH-CENTRAL KENTUCKY ARE PICKING UP COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF RAINFALL.
RAINFALL RATES OF 1-2"/HR ARE LIKELY OCCURING...AND WE'VE SEEN THIS
QUANTIFIED IN MESONET AND ASOS OBS.  IN GENERAL...FEEL THAT
REMAINING SEVERE THREAT IS LIKELY SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER.  WILL BE
COORDINATING WITH SPC TO SEE IF WE CAN DROP THE TORNADO WATCH NORTH
OF THE OHIO RIVER WITH THIS FORECAST ISSUANCE.

FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE EARLY MORNING...EXPECT THIS LARGE
CONVECTIVE COMPLEX TO SLOWLY MOVE EAST AND BEGIN AFFECTING THE
LEXINGTON AREA AROUND SUNRISE OR SHORTLY THEREAFTER.  TEMPERATURES
WILL REMAIN QUITE MILD WITH LOWER-MID 60S EXPECTED.  WITH THE HIGH
RAIN RATES OBSERVED...WE ARE LIKELY TO SEE SHARP/QUICK RISES IN AREA
RIVERS ACROSS CENTRAL KY AND SOUTHERN INDIANA.  I WOULD IMAGINE THAT
SOME CHANGES WILL BE FORTHCOMING ON THE RIVER FORECASTS LATER THIS
MORNING.

FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...IT IS STILL A VERY COMPLEX
FORECAST.  THE MAIN QUESTION IS WHAT HAPPENS WITH THIS CURRENT
COMPLEX MOVING THROUGH THE REGION THIS MORNING.  THE HIGH-RESOLUTION
MODELS ARE SUGGESTING THAT THIS COMPLEX WILL SLOWLY MOVE EASTWARD
AND GRADUALLY WIND DOWN TOWARD MIDDAY OR EARLY AFTERNOON.  EXTENSIVE
CLOUD COVER WILL LIKELY KEEP INSTABILITY DOWN ACROSS SOUTHERN
INDIANA AND PORTIONS OF NORTH-CENTRAL KENTUCKY.  HOWEVER...THERE IS
CONCERN THAT A DRY AIR SLOT CLEARLY SEEN IN THE WATER VAPOR IMAGERY
OVER NORTH TX/CENTRAL OK MAY TRANSLATE QUICKLY EASTWARD AND HELP CUT
OFF THE RAIN ACROSS THE REGION AND MAY RESULT IN SOME PARTIAL
CLEARING. IF THAT WERE TO OCCUR...WE COULD BE LOOKING AT A MORE
SUBSTANTIAL SEVERE RISK. AT THIS TIME...IT APPEARS THAT THE SEVERE
RISK IS CONDITIONAL UPON...CLEARING IF ANY DUE TO THE DRIER AIR THAT
MAY WORK IN...AND HOW LONG THIS MORNINGS CONVECTION LINGERS AROUND.

RIGHT NOW...WE'RE LEANING TOWARD THE CONVECTION HOLDING ON A BIT
MORE WHICH WOULD KEEP OUR NORTHWEST SECTIONS A BIT MORE STABLE.
HOWEVER...OUR SOUTHEASTERN SECTIONS ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN MORE
UNSTABLE THIS AFTERNOON.  AS THE UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK ROUNDS THE
BASE OF THE UPPER TROUGH AND NOSES INTO THE REGION...WE ARE LIKELY
TO SEE THUNDERSTORMS QUICKLY ERUPT ACROSS TN AND MOVE NORTHEASTWARD
INTO SOUTH-CENTRAL KY.  BEST RISK SEEMS TO BE SOUTHEAST OF A LINE
FROM BOWLING GREEN TO RICHMOND KENTUCKY. IN THIS AREA...SHEAR
PROFILES ARE VERY IMPRESSIVE SUGGESTING SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING TORNADOES...DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL.  IT
SHOULD BE NOTED THAT IF CLEARING TAKES PLACE FURTHER WEST...SEVERE
RISKS WOULD ALSO NEED TO BE PULLED BACK TO THE WEST AS WELL. PRIME
TIME FOR SEVERE WEATHER TODAY WILL BE LIKELY FROM ABOUT 2P-8P EDT.

BY THE EVENING...SFC LOW PRESSURE WILL QUICKLY MOVE NORTHEAST AND
DRAG A SURFACE COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION. THE FRONT SHOULD CLEAR
I-65 THIS EVENING AND BE EAST OF THE AREA BY THURSDAY MORNING
BRINGING AN END TO THIS SEVERE WEATHER AND EXCESSIVE RAINFALL
EPISODE.

HIGHS TODAY ARE GOING TO BE TRICKY DUE TO CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION.
FEEL THAT HIGHS IN THE LOWER-MID 70S IN THE NORTH WITH MID-UPPER 70S
IN THE SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST STILL LOOK GOOD ATTM.

.LONG TERM (THURSDAY - TUESDAY)...

THURSDAY - SATURDAY...

WE WILL SIT IN AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH THUR/THUR NIGHT KEEPING LOW
CLOUDS AND SOME LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS AROUND.  BOTH THE NAM/GFS AGREE
ON A SHRT/WV 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.

ALTHOUGH THURSDAY WILL BE A LITTLE COOL IN THE LOW TO MID 60S FOR
HIGHS...FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WILL BE BEAUTIFUL...IN THE 70S FOR HIGHS.

THE REST OF THE FORECAST REMAINS UNCHANGED.  THE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION
IS AS FOLLOWS:

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...EVERYWHERE ON
SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...AND EAST OF I 65 ON MONDAY. TIMING COULD
CHANGE SLIGHTLY SLOWER OR FASTER WITH THIS FRONTAL PROGRESSION
DEPENDING ON HOW WELL RIDGING TO THE EAST HOLDS UP. HAVE INCREASED
POPS FOR THIS TIME PERIOD TO A SOLID CHANCE OF OCCURRENCE. 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
SLOWING REGRESSION OF THE AREA RIVERS.

EXPECT HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE 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 AND TUESDAY...

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

&&

.AVIATION (12Z TAF ISSUANCE)...

BWG AND SDF HAVE BEEN IN SOLID MVFR CONDITIONS IN MODERATE SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS...OCCASIONALLY
DROPPING TO IFR CONDITIONS IN HEAVIER SHOWERS. EXPECT MODERATE RAIN
TO END AT BWG WITH AN HOUR OR SO AND AT SDF WITHIN TWO HOURS. SOLID
LINE OF CONVECTION HAS BEEN SLOW TO WORK EAST HOWEVER EXPECT
MODERATE RAIN TO BEGIN WITHIN 1 TO 2 HOURS. CONDITIONS SHOULD RETURN
TO VFR AT BWG/SDF FOR A GOOD PORTION OF THE MID TO LATE MORNING
THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS BETWEEN 15 AND 20 MPH
GUSTING TO AS HIGH AS 30 MPH AT TIMES. THE BIG QUESTION FOR THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING WILL BE HOW MUCH WE DESTABILIZE AND WHETHER OR
NOT CONVECTION CAN RE-FIRE THIS AFTERNOON. AT THIS POINT...CLEARING
DOES LOOK TO BE WORKING IN QUICKLY FROM THE WEST AND UPSTREAM
CONVECTION IS ALREADY FIRING OVER THE LOWER MID MISSISSIPPI RIVER
VALLEY. EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS...SOME OF WHICH COULD BE SEVERE...WILL
BE POSSIBLE AT BWG/SDF BY 3 OR 4 PM EDT AGAIN.

LEX SHOULD BE UNDER LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN FOR MUCH OF THE MORNING
AND EARLY AFTERNOON WITH CONVECTION RE-FIRING OVER WESTERN AND
CENTRAL TENNESSEE AND MOVING BACK INTO THE REGION THROUGHOUT THE
AFTERNOON EVENING.
