AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
123 PM EDT TUE JUN 21 2011

...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

...FORECAST UPDATE...

MORNING SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWING CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES
ACROSS THE REGION.  THE CLEAR SKIES WERE MOSTLY IN THE EAST WITH
INCREASING CLOUDS OCCURING IN THE WEST.  TEMPERATURES ARE QUITE WARM
ALREADY WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 80S.

MORNING SOUNDINGS OUT OF NASHVILLE AND WILMINGTON OH REVEAL AN
UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WITH PLENTIFUL DRY AIR MAINLY ABOVE 600MB.
CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES ARE QUITE LOW...AROUND 82-83 DEGREES THUS AM
NOT SURPRISED TO SEE CONVECTION ALREADY DEVELOPING.  MORNING
MESOANALYSIS SHOWS AN INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE DEVELOPING
ACROSS THE REGION.  WITH TEMPS ALREADY IN THE LOW-MID 80S AND
DEWPOINTS IN THE LOWER 70S HAS RESULTED IN CAPES OF 2000-2500 J/KG
IN AREAS WEST OF INTERSTATE 65.  AN INSTABILITY AXIS EXTENDING FROM
NASHVILLE NORTHWEST TO NEAR OWENSBORO WAS NOTED WHERE LI'S HAVE
DECREASED TO NEAR -6 TO -7 DEGREES CELSIUS.  WATER VAPOR IMAGERY
SHOWS A FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE MID-LEVEL WAVE APPROACHING FROM THE
WEST...AND WITH MORNING SOUNDINGS REVEALING VIRTUALLY NO CINH...WE
SHOULD SEE RAPID CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT CONTINUE ACROSS THE REGION
OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS.

INITIAL CONVECTION WILL BE MAINLY CONFINED TO AREAS WEST OF
INTERSTATE 65 FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.  LATEST LMK EXPERIMENTAL
AND OPERATIONAL HIGH RESOLUTION WRF MODEL RUNS SHOW ADDITIONAL
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE I-65 CORRIDOR BY LATE MORNING AND
EARLY AFTERNOON. THIS ACTIVITY WILL SPREAD SLOWLY EASTWARD.
OVERALL...BULK SHEAR IS PRETTY MARGINAL AND WINDS IN THE PBL ARE NOT
OVERLY STRONG.  STIFF SOUTHWESTERLY PBL FLOW IS ALSO YIELDING GOOD
MOISTURE ADVECTION WITH PWAT VALUES INCREASING TO 1.8 TO 1.9 INCHES
WILL LIKELY RESULT IN TORRENTIAL RAINFALL WITH STORMS THIS AFTERNOON.
GIVEN THE WEAK MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND ABUNDANT DRY AIR
ALOFT...FEEL THAT SEVERE WEATHER THREATS TODAY WILL BE MAINLY
DAMAGING WINDS/DOWNBURSTS.  COULD SEE SOME SUB-SEVERE HAIL...BUT
GIVEN THE HIGHLY BUOYANT/LOW SHEAR ENVIRONMENT...DAMAGING WINDS SEEM
TO BE A GOOD BET.

CURRENT FORECAST IS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE.  HAVE MADE A COUPLE OF
ADJUSTMENTS. FIRST HAVE GONE AHEAD AND INCREASED POPS THIS MORNING
AND THIS AFTERNOON.  BASED ON THE LMK WRF RUNS AS WELL AS THE LATEST
HRRR RUNS...FEEL THAT LIKELY POPS ARE JUSTIFIED FOR THIS AFTERNOON.
ALSO INCREASED CLOUD COVER A BIT AND LOWERED TEMPERATURES SLIGHTLY.
TEMPERATURES ARE REAL QUESTION MARK IN AREAS WEST OF I-65 AS MORNING
CONVECTION MAY CURTAIL THEIR UPWARD CLIMB.  FEEL THAT UPPER 80S ARE
REASONABLE IN THIS AREA...WITH UPPER 80S TO POSSIBLY SOME VERY LOW
90S WILL BE POSSIBLE EAST OF I-65.

UPDATED FORECAST PRODUCTS WILL BE AVAILABLE WITHIN THE NEXT 10
MINUTES.  THANKS TO WFO JKL FOR COLLABORATION THIS MORNING.

.SHORT TERM (TODAY AND TONIGHT)...

AN ACTIVE PERIOD...BEGINNING THIS AFTERNOON AND CONTINUING TONIGHT.

WE WILL START OFF WITH PLENTIFUL SUNSHINE THIS MORNING WITH TEMPS
CLIMBING WELL INTO THE 80S WITH DEWPOINTS AROUND 70...COMPLIMENTS OF
A MODEST SW WIND.

BY LATE MORNING OR MIDDAY...WE WILL HAVE REACHED CONVECTIVE TEMPS IN
THE MID 80S WITH CU GROWING INTO CUMULONIMBUS BY EARLY/MID
AFTERNOON...PROBABLY IN OUR SCNTRL SECTIONS FIRST. WITH AT LEAST
MODEST INSTABILITY AND AMPLE DEEP LAYER SHEAR...TSTMS SHUD BE
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED MAINLY ACRS THE W/CENTRAL PARTS OF OUR
FORECAST AREA BY MID AFTERNOON AND INCREASE IN COVERAGE/INTENSITY BY
EARLY EVE AS STACKED LOWS REACH WESTERN IOWA AND ASSOCIATED SLOW
MOVING COLD FRONT APPROACHES STL. SUBTLE UPPER LEVEL INPULSES ON THE
SE SIDE OF LONGWAVE TROF WILL HELP TO INITIATE STORMS AS WELL AS
INCREASING MOISTURE...WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES CLIMBING TO
NEAR 2 INCHES.

LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THREATS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS
THE NW HALF OF OUR CWA OVER WHICH SPC HAS PLACED A SLIGHT RISK.

MAX TEMPS SHUD REACH TO AROUND THE 90 DEGREE MARK BEFORE BEING CUT
OFF BY BUILDING CLOUDS/STORMS.

FOR TONIGHT...SHORT RANGE/MESOSCALE MODELS CONSISTENT WITH A
CONTINUING INCREASE IN STORM COVERAGE AS UPSTREAM UPPER LEVEL
TROF/FRONT CONTINUE TO APPROACH. WILL RAISE POPS TO LIKELY AND KEEP
THRUOUT THE NIGHT.

.LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY - MONDAY)...

WEDNESDAY - FRIDAY NIGHT...

A FAIRLY STRONG MID-LEVEL TROUGH AXIS IS FORECAST TO SHIFT EASTWARD
ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION WEDNESDAY.
EVENTUALLY...THE AXIS WILL SWING THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY DURING THE
FORECAST PERIOD. THE FORECAST AREA WILL BE PLACED WELL WITHIN THE
WARM SECTOR OF THE SYSTEM. SEVERAL ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

BY WEDNESDAY MORNING...A SURFACE LOW WILL BE LOCATED ACROSS THE
UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL BE
STRETCHED FROM SOUTH-CENTRAL WISCONSIN...THROUGH SAINT LOUIS...AND
INTO CENTRAL ARKANSAS. THE NAM...GFS...ECMWF...SREF...AND TAIL END
OF THE SPC WRF BRING A WEAKENING BAND OF CONVECTION THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY MORNING. THIS ROUND OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD PROGRESS EASTWARD...WITH SOME CLEARING ACROSS
THE AREA BY EARLY AFTERNOON. IF THERE IS ENOUGH HEATING THROUGH THE
DAY...TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 80S WILL BE POSSIBLE. COMBINE THIS
WITH THE VERY MOIST CONDITIONS AND THE ATMOSPHERE SHOULD DESTABILIZE
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD
DEVELOP ACROSS THE REGION...ESPECIALLY WITH LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE AS
THE FRONT APPROACHES. THE FRONT SHOULD BE STRETCHED SOUTHWESTWARD
FROM CENTRAL MICHIGAN...THROUGH INDIANAPOLIS...AND INTO EXTREME
WESTERN KENTUCKY BY WEDNESDAY EVENING. SOUNDINGS CONTINUE TO
INDICATE THE MAIN THREAT WITH ANY STORM WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS WITH
HAIL BEING A LESSER THREAT DUE TO THE MARGINAL LAPSE RATES. MODEL
CONSENSUS INDICATES CONVECTION SHOULD MOVE EASTWARD AND DIMINISH
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

FOR THURSDAY...MODELS SUGGEST THE SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL PASS
THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA. IT IS A SLOW PROGRESSION...WHICH WILL
ALLOW FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS. CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONT AS
WELL AS STEEP LAPSE RATES WOULD ALLOW FOR STRONG STORMS /POSSIBLY
SEVERE/. THE MAIN THREATS WOULD BE DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL.
CONVECTION SHOULD DIMINISH THURSDAY NIGHT AS DRIER AIR WILL BUILD
ACROSS THE REGION FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME FRIDAY. HIGHS THURSDAY
AND FRIDAY WILL BE AROUND 80 IN THE NORTH AND LOWER 80S ACROSS THE
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. OVERNIGHT LOWS
WILL BE IN THE LOW TO MID 60S.

SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY...

LONG RANGE MODEL SOLUTIONS CONTINUE TO DEPICT SUBTLE DIFFERENCES
DURING THIS PERIOD...WITH A BROAD TROUGH ACROSS THE EASTERN CONUS.
THE ECMWF KEEPS THE TROUGH A BIT MORE FLAT THAN THE GFS.
HOWEVER...THE 21/00Z GFS RUN IS SHOWING VERY SUBTLE SIGNS OF
FLATTENING /HIGHER HEIGHTS OVER OUR AREA/ WHEN COMPARED TO PREVIOUS
MODEL RUNS...WHILE THE ECMWF IS NOW DEPICTING SLIGHTLY LOWER HEIGHTS
ACROSS THE AREA. TAKING A LOOK AT THE GEFS AND NAEFS...THERE REMAINS
ENSEMBLE SPREAD. GIVEN THE LATEST MODEL RUNS...BELIEVE THE OVERALL
SOLUTION WILL REST NEAR THE MIDDLE. WILL CONTINUE A 50/50 BLEND OF
THE ECMWF AND GFS. MODEL CONSENSUS SUGGESTS THE FRONT THAT IS
FORECAST TO PASS THROUGH THE REGION THURSDAY WILL LIKELY STALL
ACROSS CENTRAL TENNESSEE...BECOMING QUASI-STATIONARY. WILL CONTINUE
CHANCE POPS FOR SATURDAY...SUNDAY..AND INTO MONDAY. IF THE ECMWF
SOLUTION PANS OUT...WILL NEED TO INCREASE POPS AND QPF DURING THIS
PERIOD AS THE STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE STRETCHED ACROSS
KENTUCKY. EITHER WAY...TEMPERATURES WILL BE COOLER. EXPECT HIGHS IN
THE LOW TO MID 80S...WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE LOW TO MID 60S.

&&

.AVIATION (18Z TAF ISSUANCE)...

IN GENERAL...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD...BUT SOME TEMPORARY MVFR RESTRICTIONS DUE TO THUNDERSTORMS
WILL BE POSSIBLE AT THE TERMINALS.

STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL RESULT IN AMPLE MOISTURE TRANSPORT
INTO THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON.  CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES HAVE
ALREADY BEEN REACHED AND CONVECTION CONTINUES TO DEVELOP...MAINLY
WEST OF INTERSTATE 65.  THE STORMS ARE SCATTERED IN NATURE...BUT
KBWG WILL LIKELY BEAR THE BRUNT OF ANY CONVECTION OVER THE NEXT
SEVERAL HOURS.  GIVEN THE SCATTERED NATURE...PLAN ON CONTINUING VCTS
WORDING AT THE TAF SITES THIS AFTERNOON/EVE.  WILL CLOSELY MONITOR
AND AMEND FORECASTS IF STORMS APPROACH THE TERMINALS.  WILL ALSO BE
EVALUATING THE AFTERNOON DATA PACKAGE AND MAY MAKE FURTHER
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE FORECAST WITH MORE CATEGORICAL QUALIFIERS IF THE
DATA SUGGESTS.
