AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
1116 AM EDT MON APR 4 2011

...MESOSCALE UPDATE...

LATEST LAPS FORECAST SOUNDINGS ALONG WITH SPC MESOANALYSIS SHOWS
THAT CAP IS QUICKLY ERODING ACROSS OUR WESTERN CWA. COLD AIR
ADVECTION AT THE 700 MB LEVEL WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE IN AS 60 TO 70
KNOT WINDS AHEAD OF THE TROUGH AXIS OVERSPREADS THE REGION. WITH A
BRIEF CLEARING IN CLOUD COVER THIS MORNING AND DEW POINTS IN THE LOW
TO MID 60S ADVECTING INTO THE REGION ENOUGH SURFACE BASED
INSTABILITY SHOULD EXIST FOR SIZABLE DAMAGING WIND THREAT...
ESPECIALLY ALONG AND EAST OF THE I 65 CORRIDOR. CURRENT
SURFACE WINDS ARE STILL SOUTHERLY LATE THIS MORNING...HOWEVER DO
EXPECT A GRADUAL VEERING IN RESPONSE TO COLD FRONT APPROACHING. THIS
WILL CREATE A MORE UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR PROFILE IN THE AFTERNOON
HOURS. EXPECT QLCS CONVECTIVE MODE TO CONTINUE TO ORGANIZE LATE THIS
MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON WITH INTENSIFYING LINE OF STORMS
IMPACTING THE I 65 CORRIDOR JUST AFTER NOON THROUGH AROUND 3 OR 4
PM. AS THE LINE MOVES EAST OF THE I 65 CORRIDOR EXPECT CONTINUED
STRENGTHENING AND ORGANIZATION. BOWING SEGMENTS WITH DAMAGING WIND
THREAT AS WELL AS AN ISOLATED TORNADO THREAT WILL LIKELY OCCUR. LINE
SHOULD IMPACT THE I 75 CORRIDOR AREA SOMETIME BETWEEN 3 PM AND 5 PM.

ALONG WITH THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT...HEAVY RAIN THREAT WILL ALSO
BE POSSIBLE AS RAPID STORM MOTION ALLOWS SEVERAL STORMS TO TRACK
PARALLEL TO FRONTAL MOVEMENT. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR REPEATED
THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE SAME AREA. LATEST ANALYSIS OF THE MOISTURE
COLUMN SHOWS PLUME OF PWATS OVER 1.5 INCHES ADVECTING INTO WESTERN
KENTUCKY ON 50 - 60 KNOT LLJ. STILL EXPECTING WIDESPREAD 1 TO 2
INCHES IN OUR WESTERN CWA WITH 2 TO 3 INCHES EAST OF THE I 65
CORRIDOR POSSIBLE.

PREVIOUS UPDATE...

HAVE ALREADY UPDATED THE ZONES THIS MORNING TO INCLUDE TORNADO WATCH
# 89 FOR SOUTHERN INDIANA AND PORTIONS OF WEST CENTRAL KENTUCKY.
LATEST LAPS SOUNDINGS SHOW CAP ERODING JUST A BIT OVER THE PAST
COUPLE OF HOURS...HOWEVER STILL HAVE ANOTHER HOUR OR TWO BEFORE MORE
SURFACE BASED STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE. ONCE THIS OCCURS...LOW LEVEL
HODOGRAPHS ARE FAVORABLE FOR ROTATING STORMS AS LATEST VAD WIND
PROFILE SHOWS SOUTHERLY SURFACE WINDS AND STEADY VEERING WITH
HEIGHT. SIGNIFICANT SPEED SHEAR IS ALSO OBSERVED WITH A LLJ BETWEEN
50 AND 60 KNOTS. WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR MORE DISCRETE CELLS THIS
MORNING BEFORE MORE LINEARLY FORCED CONVECTION FILLS IN ALONG THE
FRONT IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON. THE MAIN THREATS WILL BE DAMAGING
WINDS AND HAIL...HOWEVER CANNOT RULE OUT AN ISOLATED TORNADO THIS
MORNING WITH DISCRETE SUPERCELLS AND ENVIRONMENT FAVORING MORE
SURFACE BASED ACTIVITY BY LATE MORNING. BY AFTERNOON...SPEED SHEAR
WILL INCREASE HOWEVER EXPECT MORE UNIDIRECTIONAL PROFILE WITH HEIGHT
AS SURFACE WINDS VEER IN RESPONSE TO APPROACHING COLD FRONT. WILL
HAVE TO WATCH FOR OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FOR MORNING CONVECTION FOR ANY
BACKED SURFACE WINDS. DO EXPECT STRONG QLCS TO FORM BY MIDDAY TO
EARLY AFTERNOON SOMEWHERE ALONG OR JUST WEST OF THE I 65 CORRIDOR
WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL BEING THE MAIN THREATS.
CERTAINLY AN ISOLATED TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT FOR THIS AFTERNOON
WITH ANY BOWING SEGMENT OR SUPERCELL AHEAD OF THE LINE...ALTHOUGH
SHEAR PROFILE DOES LOOK TO BECOME LESS FAVORABLE BY MID TO LATE
AFTERNOON. HEAVY RAINFALL STILL LOOKS LIKE A POSSIBILITY WITH 1 TO 2
INCHES OF WIDESPREAD RAINFALL WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE
ALONG THE I 75 CORRIDOR. UPDATED PRODUCTS ALREADY OUT.

.SHORT TERM (TODAY AND TONIGHT)...

...SEVERE WEATHER STILL LOOKS ON TRACK FOR TODAY...

AT 7Z A COLD FRONT WAS MOVING EAST ACROSS CENTRAL MO/WESTERN IL.
THIS FRONT IS STILL ON TRACK TO MOVE EASTWARD INTO OUR AREA THIS
AFTERNOON BRINGING STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.  THE FIRST BATCH
OF T-STORMS MAY START IN SOUTHERN INDIANA AROUND 10-12Z THIS MORNING
ACCORDING TO THE 4Z HRRR AND TO A LESSER EXTENT IN THE 0Z
EXPERIMENTAL LOCAL WRF.  THE 0Z NAM AND 21Z SREF DO NOT DEPICT THIS
EARLIER CONVECTION AS MUCH.  HOWEVER...IT COULD HAPPEN ALONG A LEFT
OVER BOUNDARY WHICH IS PUSHING SE OVER SOUTHERN IL/EASTERN MO AS OF
7Z.  WILL BE WATCHING THIS CLOSELY OVER NEXT FEW HOURS.

HOWEVER...THE MAIN THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS WON/T ARRIVE UNTIL THIS
AFTERNOON IN THE 18Z TO 0Z TIME FRAME AS THE FRONT PASSES THROUGH.
A SQUALL LINE IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BY EARLY/MID AFTERNOON WITH
EMBEDDED INTENSE CELLULAR STRUCTURES.  BULK SHEAR VALUES STILL LOOK
VERY IMPRESSIVE AND ARE IN SUPPORT OF A MAIN WIND DAMAGE THREAT.
SECONDARY THREATS WILL BE HAIL AND AN ISLD TORNADO.  NOT A WHOLE LOT
OF CAPE IN HAIL GROWTH ZONE SO THAT WILL BE SOMEWHAT OF A LIMITING
FACTOR FOR HAIL.  ALTHOUGH AN ISLD TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT...LL
WIND SHEAR AND MOISTURE ARE LACKING ACCORDING TO MODEL SOUNDINGS.

FLASH FLOODING POTENTIAL LOOKS A LITTLE LESS AS STORMS WILL BE
MOVING PRETTY FAST.  1-2 INCHES OF QPF IS EXPECTED.  HOWEVER...IN
LOCATIONS THAT MAY RECEIVE REPEATED T-STORMS...2-3 INCHES OF QPF IS
POSSIBLE WHICH MAY RESULT IN FLOODING ISSUES.

KEEP ABREAST OF THE LATEST WATCHES AND WARNINGS FOR THIS AFTERNOON
AT WEATHER.GOV/LOUISVILLE OR ON NOAA WEATHER RADIO.

THE FRONT WILL BLOW THROUGH THE AREA THIS EVENING WITH SOME LEFT
OVER LIGHT SHOWERS STICKING AROUND THROUGH ABOUT MIDNIGHT...THEN
EXITING SHORTLY AFTER.

WINDS...WITH GUSTS IN THE 35 TO 40 MPH RANGE OBSERVED OVER MUCH OF
THE AREA THIS MORNING...WILL GO AHEAD AND START THE WIND ADVY NOW
INSTEAD OF 10 AM EDT.  SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL BE GUSTY OUTSIDE OF ANY
THUNDERSTORMS UP TO 40 TO 50 MPH TODAY.

AS FOR TEMPERATURES...THERE IS GREAT BUST POTENTIAL IN HIGHS FOR
TODAY DEPENDING ON WHEN/WHERE THE CONVECTION GETS STARTED.  FOR
NOW...WILL BANK ON SOUTHERN INDIANA RAINS THIS MORNING RESULTING IN
HIGH TEMPS IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S NORTH OF THE OHIO RIVER AND
MID TO UPPER 70S SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER.  LOWS TONIGHT WILL BE IN
THE MID 30S TO AROUND 40.

.LONG TERM (TUESDAY - SUNDAY)...

OUR FOCUS TODAY ON THIS AFTN/EVENING SEVERE WX EVENT.

WE ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH OUR NEIGHBORS BEGINNING TUE INTO THE
WEEKEND AND WILL MAKE JUST SUBTLE TWEAKS ON THE GRIDS/FORECAST.

BASICALLY...

COOL AT THE START FOR TNGT/TUE AFTER FRONTAL PASSAGE WITH WARMING
TEMPS TO NEAR 80 BY THE WEEKEND. DRY FOR MOST FOLKS THRU THE PERIOD
WITH SHOWER/TSTM CHCS BEGINNING THU AFTN AND CONTINUING INTO THE
WEEKEND. THESE SHUD BE SCATTERED WITH THE GREATEST COVERAGE ACRS THE
NORTHERN QUARTER OF OUR FORECAST AREA.

&&

.AVIATION (12Z TAF ISSUANCE)...

LOW END VFR...POSSIBLY SOME MVFR CIGS THIS MORNING AS CONVECTION
ATTEMPTS TO ORGANIZE.  NOT CONFIDENT ON CONVECTIVE ORGANIZATION AND
COVERAGE THIS MORNING SO WILL GO WITH VCTS AND CB...BUT THAT MIGHT
NEED UPGRADED IF CONVECTION BLOSSOMS AS THE LATEST HRRR MODEL
SUGGESTS. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO GUST THROUGHOUT THE DAY
IN THE 35 TO 45 MPH RANGE.

THE MAIN TAF CONCERN FOR THIS FORECAST PERIOD WILL THEN TURN TO A
COLD FRONT TRACKING EAST ACROSS EASTERN MISSOURI/CENTRAL ILLINOIS AS
OF 1030Z THIS MORNING.  THIS FRONT WILL MAKE IT/S WAY INTO THE TAF
SITES THIS AFTERNOON BRINGING WITH IT T-STORMS.  STORM STRENGTH AND
INTENSITY WILL INCREASE THIS AFTERNOON AS THE COLD FRONT DRAWS NEAR
WITH THE BEST CHANCE FOR STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS BETWEEN ABOUT 4/17Z
TO 5/2Z.  STRONG WINDS AND HAIL WILL BE THE MAIN THREATS FROM ANY
SEVERE T-STORM THAT MAY MAKE IT INTO THE TAF SITES.  HAVE
HIGHLIGHTED THE STRONGER WINDS IN THIS TAF ISSUANCE BUT WILL NAIL
DOWN ANYTHING SEVERE THIS AFTERNOON AS THE STORMS APPROACH THE
TERMINALS. CIGS/VSBYS WILL LIKELY BE REDUCED TO MVFR CONDITIONS
POSSIBLY IFR IN THE STRONG STORMS AS WELL.

FROPA SHOULD OCCUR AT 23Z AT SDF...0Z AT BWG...AND 2Z AT LEX
RESPECTIVELY.  WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE WNW REMAINING GUSTY 20-25KTS
THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.  CONVECTION WILL LOSE IT/S PUNCH AFTER THE
FROPA BEING REDUCED TO POST-FRONTAL SHOWERS AND MVFR CIGS.
