AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
328 PM EDT MON JUN 27 2011

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND TUESDAY)...

WATCH 566 REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 9 PM EDT...8 PM CDT FOR MUCH OF
CENTRAL KY AND PERRY COUNTY INDIANA...ALTHOUGH WILL TRY TO TRIM A
FEW COUNTIES BACK WITH THE 4 PM FORECAST ISSUANCE.  MCS CONTINUES TO
PUSH ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA ALTHOUGH IT SEEMS TO HAVE LOST SOME OF
ITS PUNCH.  -10 LI/S SIT OVER THE LAKE CUMBERLAND AREA HOWEVER...AND
NEW CELLS HAVE STARTED TO POP OVER SOUTH CENTRAL KY.  THIS COULD BE
A SIGN OF RE-GENERATION...THEREFORE WILL CONTINUE THE SEVERE T-STORM
WATCH.  AGAIN THE MAIN THREAT WITH THESE STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING
WINDS.

THE REST OF THE EVENING REMAINS IN QUESTION DUE TO THE MCS/S THAT
HAVE MOVED THROUGH THE AREA TODAY.  A WELL DEFINED WARM FRONT THAT
WAS PRESENT THIS MORNING HAS BEEN LOST IN ALL OF THE OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES THAT HAVE CROSSED OVER THE REGION TODAY.  HOWEVER...A
BOUNDARY DID LIE FROM ABOUT CENTRAL MO TO CENTRAL TN AS OF 19Z WITH
A PARENT SFC LOW OVER NE OKLAHOMA.  ANOTHER SFC LOW WAS LOCATED OVER
THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES WITH A COLD FRONT EXTENDING DOWN THROUGH
WISCONSIN/ILLINOIS AND THEN BACK WESTWARD INTO MISSOURI.  THIS FRONT
IS PROGGED TO MOVE THROUGH THE AREA BETWEEN 6Z TO 12Z OVERNIGHT.
BEFORE THIS FROPA THOUGH...AT LEAST ONE MORE ROUND OF CONVECTION IS
EXPECTED TO FIRE ALONG THE COLD FRONT LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND PUSH
ESE THIS EVENING.  DEPENDING ON EXACTLY WHERE THE BOUNDARY FROM THE
CURRENT MCS LAYS OUT MAY INFLUENCE THE TRACK OF THIS NEXT ROUND OF
STORMS.  ALSO...STORM INITIATION LOCATION IS IN QUESTION AS MODELS
POINT TO CENTRAL MO WHILE OBS INDICATE REALLY GOOD CONVERGENCE OVER
CENTRAL IL.  IF STORMS CAN INITIATE FAR ENOUGH EAST OVER ILLINOIS
AND TRAVEL E SLIGHTLY SE...THEN AT LEAST WESTERN AND SOUTHERN
SECTIONS OF THE FA WILL GET ANOTHER ROUND OF STRONG STORMS.  IF
STORM INITIATION IS FARTHER WEST...WE MAY MISS A SECOND ROUND OF
STRONG STORMS THIS EVENING ALL TOGETHER.

AFTER MIDNIGHT...ONLY SOME RESIDUAL SHOWERS/T-STORMS ARE EXPECTED
ALONG THE FRONT AS THE IT PASSES THROUGH THE REGION.

TEMPS LOOK TO BE MILD THIS EVENING WITH LOWS IN THE LOWER 70S.
HIGHS TOMORROW SHOULD REACH THE MID 80S ALTHOUGH CLEARING OF CLOUDS
MAY HAMPER THE TEMP FORECAST SOMEWHAT.

.LONG TERM (TUESDAY NIGHT - MONDAY)...

MODEL CONSENSUS CONTINUES TO SHOW HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY PROCEEDING
FROM THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TUESDAY NIGHT TO THE SOUTHEAST
UNITED STATES BY FRIDAY NIGHT...KEEPING US DRY DURING THAT TIME
PERIOD. WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY WILL SEE THE MERCURY RISE INTO THE
MIDDLE AND UPPER 80S...WITH 90S LIKELY ON FRIDAY.

A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL SLIP IN FROM THE NORTHWEST THIS
WEEKEND...PROVIDING US WITH A CHANCE OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS EACH
OF THE THREE DAYS SATURDAY THROUGH THE FOURTH. AT THIS TIME IT LOOKS
LIKE THE MOST LIKELY DAY FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE SUNDAY. HIGH
TEMPERATURES EACH DAY WILL BE AROUND THE 90 DEGREE MARK.

&&

.AVIATION (18Z TAF ISSUANCE)...

CONVECTIVE COMPLEX OVER WESTERN KY AND SOUTHWEST INDIANA WILL MOVE
EAST AND IMPACT THE TAF SITES WITHIN THE NEXT 2 TO 3 HRS.  HAVE
TIMED IT INTO BWG BETWEEN 19-1930Z...SDF AT 1845Z...AND LEX AT 20Z
RESPECTIVELY.  BWG SHOULD SEE THE WORST CONVECTION WITH STRONG WINDS
BEING THE MAIN THREATS.  UPSTREAM OBS INDICATE 50 TO 60 MPH WINDS
WITH THESE STORMS.  WILL STAY CONSERVATIVE WITH BWG TEMPO
GROUP...BUT WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR AND UPGRADE THE WINDS IF
NECESSARY.  SDF/LEX SHOULD BE ON THE NORTHERN FRINGE OF THIS MCS.
LEX STANDS THE BEST CHANCE TO GET A STRONG STORM OUT OF IT.
HOWEVER...IT/S ABOUT 2.5 HRS WEST OF LEX RIGHT NOW SO WILL LEAVE OUT
STRONG WINDS IN A TEMPO GROUP FOR NOW.  WILL UPGRADE LEX/SDF AS THIS
MCS EVOLVES.

THE 14Z HRRR SEEMS TO HAVE THE BEST HANDLE ON THIS MCS...SO HAVE
SIDED WITH IT AS FAR AS END TIMES LATE THIS AFTERNOON.  MORE
CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE AFTER 3Z TONIGHT AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT...BUT
HAVE FOCUSED THIS TAF ISSUANCE ON THIS AFTERNOON/S CONVECTION.

WINDS SHOULD GENERALLY BE OUT OF THE SOUTH AHEAD OF THE
CONVECTION...VARIABLE AND GUSTY DURING CONVECTION...AND THEN SSW
AFTER THE CONVECTION HAS PASSED THIS AFTERNOON.
