AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MORRISTOWN TN
1000 AM EDT WED JUN 15 2011

.DISCUSSION...
CURRENT SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A NORTHWEST-TO-SOUTHEAST ORIENTED
FRONTAL BOUNDARY GENERALLY ALONG A PADUCAH KY TO HUNTSVILLE AL TO
MACON GA LINE. THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS PROGGED TO SLOWLY MOVE
NORTHWARD TODAY AS A WARM FRONT...AS 850 MB SOUTHERLY WINDS INCREASE
AHEAD OF A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE MID WEST. AS A RESULT...
DEWPOINTS SHOULD SLOWLY RISE TODAY ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA...WITH
BOTH THE NAM AND GFS MODELS INDICATING A MODERATELY TO POTENTIALLY
VERY UNSTABLE AIR MASS DEVELOPING BY LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING. WITH A DECENT MID-LEVEL WIND FLOW DEVELOPING AHEAD OF THIS
WARM FRONT BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND ALSO AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT BY
LATER THIS EVENING...IT APPEARS THAT THERE SHOULD BE A GOOD COVERAGE
OF CONVECTION DEVELOPING OVER THE FORECAST AREA WITH THE POSSIBILITY
OF SOME SEVERE TSTORMS. THE MAIN THREATS APPEAR TO BE DAMAGING WINDS
AND LARGE HAIL...BUT THE INCREASING WIND FLOW BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING COULD ENCOURAGE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FEW SUPERCELLS WITH
THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO.

OVERALL...WILL PLAN TO UPDATE THE FORECAST THIS MORNING TO RAISE
POPS A LITTLE FOR THIS AFTERNOON...AND TO MENTION THE POSSIBILITY OF
SOME SEVERE STORMS. WILL ALSO TWEAK TEMPS A LITTLE ACCORDING TO THE
LATEST TRENDS.
