AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
259 PM CDT SUN JUN 19 2011

.DISCUSSION...
WARM FRONT CURRENTLY DRAPED NW-SE ACROSS OUR CWA IS FORECAST TO
LIFT NORTHEAST THROUGH THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON HOURS AS MID
LEVEL RIDGING NUDGES NORTHEAST ACROSS THE CWA. NOT CONVINCED THIS
WILL HAPPEN THOUGH AS IT WAS FORECAST TO DO THE SAME THING FOR THE
PAST COUPLE OF DAYS. WITH THAT BEING SAID...IF THE FRONT LIFTS
COMPLETELY NORTH OF OUR CWA BEFORE MIDNIGHT...WE WILL BE IN THE
WARM SECTOR AT THE SURFACE WITH PLENTY OF WARM AIR ALOFT...SO
LITTLE TO NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN WEATHER-WISE. IF THE BOUNDARY DOESNT
MAKE MUCH PROGRESS...CERTAINLY THE NORTHERN AND NORTHEASTERN
SECTIONS WOULD BE SUSCEPTIBLE TO ANOTHER MCS/MCV INVASION LATE
TONIGHT. WILL HAVE TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THAT.

THE MID LEVEL RIDGING SHOULD KEEP THE REGION DRY MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT. THE RIDGE AXIS BEGINS TO SLIDE OFF TO THE EAST ON
TUESDAY...SO PRECIP CHANCES BEGIN TO INCREASE FROM WEST TO EAST AS
A STORM SYSTEM SPINNING UP OVER THE PLAINS STARTS MOVING TOWARD
THE REGION. WITH FLOW ALOFT BEING NEARLY PARALLEL TO THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM...ITS FORWARD PROGRESS WILL
BE SLOW. AS THE SYSTEM DRAWS CLOSER...PRECIP CHANCES WILL CONTINUE
TO INCREASE...THEN MAX OUT TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY AS THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACTUALLY CROSSES THE CWA.

WITH A COUPLE OF SFC TROFS AND CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT...PRECIP COULD
LINGER WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE IN THE WAKE OF
THIS SYSTEM SHOULD KEEP THE REGION DRY THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY.
FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...WITH NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT AND A SFC
BOUNDARY LINGERING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD...DECIDED TO THROW IN SMALL
CHC POPS THROUGH THE PERIOD. INITIALLY WAS GOING TO GO DRY DURING
THE DAYTIME PERIODS AND KEEP PRECIP AT NIGHT TO ACCOUNT FOR THE
OCCURRENCE OF MCS/MCV EVENTS...BUT WITH SOME LEVEL OF UNCERTAINTY...
AND TO BETTER BLEND WITH SURROUNDING OFFICES...DECIDED TO KEEP POPS
DURING THE DAYTIME PERIODS AS WELL. MODELS ARE STARTING TO COME
TOGETHER A LITTLE BETTER IN THE EXTENDED PERIODS.

&&

.AVIATION...
CLOUDINESS CONTINUES TO DECREASE AND MOVE EAST IN THE WAKE OF THIS
MORNINGS THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX. EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE TAF
PERIOD...WITH THE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION OF A THUNDERSTORM LATE TONIGHT.
MENTIONED CB CLOUDS IN THE KEVV/KOWB TAFS FOR THE LATE NIGHT AND
EARLY MORNING HOURS. SURFACE WINDS ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN FROM THE
SOUTH THROUGH THE NIGHT...WHICH SHOULD KEEP FOG FROM BEING A
CONCERN. WINDS WILL INCREASE FROM THE SOUTHWEST DURING THE DAYLIGHT
HOURS...WITH SOME GUSTINESS EXPECTED.
