AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON KY
944 PM EDT SUN JUL 1 2012

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 943 PM EDT SUN JUL 1 2012

UPDATED THE FORECAST ADD SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH. MULTIPLE STORM
DAMAGE REPORTS ARE COMING INTO THE OFFICE ASSOCIATED WITH THE STORMS
CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS THE AREA. UP TO GOLF BALL SIZED HAIL HAS BE
REPORTED AND WIND GUSTS OF 60 MPH. MANY TREES AND POWER LINES HAVE
BEEN REPORTED DOWN. THESE ARE DANGEROUS STORMS...SO BE PREPARED TO
TAKE SHELTER AS THE STORMS MOVE INTO THE AREA. ANOTHER ROUND OF
STORMS MAY MOVE INTO THE BLUEGRASS BY MIDNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 335 PM EDT SUN JUL 1 2012

CURRENT SETUP ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY THIS AFTERNOON ON VISIBLE
SATELLITE HAS THE UPSTREAM MCS NOW OVER NORTHWEST INDIANA HEADING
SOUTHEAST. CURRENT CU POP UPS IN SOUTHERN IN AND INTO SW OH INDICATE
THAT SOME ACTIVITY MAY POP UP BEFORE THE MCS REACHES THE CWA BORDER.
SPECIALLY SINCE THE BOUNDARY LAYER HAS WARMED SIGNIFICANTLY AND WITH
THIS MORNINGS RAINFALL...DEWS UP NORTH ARE IN THE MID 60S. A UNSTABLE
ATMOSPHERE CONTINUES TO DEVELOP IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY AND SO HAVE
ADJUSTED POPS FOR A LATER ARRIVAL OF THE MCS.

WITH A LATER ARRIVAL...THE BLUEGRASS COUNTIES ONSET ALIGNS WITH MAX
HEATING AND WILL BANK ON A FEW STORMS BECOMING SEVERE. CONCERNING
FURTHER UPSTREAM WITH THE...TRAIN OF SEVERAL MCS COMING DOWN THE
PIKE...WILL INSERT CHANCE POPS INTO THE MORNING HOURS FOR THIS AND
INTO MONDAY AFTERNOON TO COUPLE WITH THE MAX HEATING. MODELS HAVE HAD
A BIT OF TROUBLE TIMING THESE SYSTEMS INTO THE AREA SO WILL KEEP
CHANCE POPS IN THE FORECAST DURING MONDAY AFTERNOON. THE CURRENT
TREND WITH THE NORTH GETTING SOME RAINFALL TODAY WILL LEAD TO A BIT
LOWER TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE AREA FOR MONDAY DUE TO THE CLOUD COVER
AS WELL SO WILL NOT ISSUE A HEAT ADVISORY FOR MONDAY AND LET THE ONE
FOR TODAY EXPIRE AT 02Z.

.LONG TERM...(TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 335 PM EDT SAT JUN 30 2012

THE MODELS ARE IN ONLY FAIR AGREEMENT ALOFT THROUGH THE EXTENDED
PORTION OF THE FORECAST. THEY AGREE THAT...IN GENERAL...EAST
KENTUCKY WILL REMAIN UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF AN UPPER RIDGE TO THE
SOUTH INITIALLY BEFORE IT WANES AND ANOTHER BUILDS TO THE NORTHWEST.
AS THE FIRST RIDGE WEAKENS...VARIOUS SHORTWAVES WILL LIKELY CARVE
CLOSER TO THE CWA AND LOCALLY KNOCK HEIGHTS DOWN FURTHER. THE NEW
BUILDING RIDGE TO THE WEST WILL EXERT ITS INFLUENCE OVER EAST
KENTUCKY DURING THE LATTER PART OF THIS WEEK AND OVER THE WEEKEND.
HOWEVER...YET AGAIN...WE WILL BE ON THE FRINGE AND SOME ENERGY WILL
LIKELY IMPINGE OUR EASTERN FLANK DURING THE LATTER PARTS OF THE
EXTENDED. PREFER A BLENDED SOLUTION THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH A FOCUS
ON THE CENTERS OF THE RIDGES AND TAPERING THEIR SUPPRESSING/
OPPRESSING INFLUENCES WITH DISTANCE.

SENSIBLE WEATHER WILL FEATURE A SOMEWHAT IMPROVED OUTLOOK WITH
RESPECT TO HEAT AND DROUGHT CONDITIONS THROUGH THE EXTENDED.
HOWEVER...WHAT WE MAKE UP FOR IN LOWER AFTERNOON TEMPS WILL LIKELY
BE MADE UP BY THE HIGHER MOISTURE CONTENT IN THE AIR AND KEEP THE
HEAT INDICES WELL INTO THE 90S...BUT PROBABLY JUST SHY OF ADVISORY
LEVELS. EARLY ON...THE CHANCE OF CONVECTION WILL BE LARGELY
DIURNALLY DRIVEN AND NOT FAVORING ONE PART OF THE CWA OVER ANOTHER.
AS SUCH...THERE WILL BE SOLID CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
EACH AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING FROM TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY WITH
CHANCES DOWN TO SLIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND THROUGH THE
BULK OF THE MORNINGS. AS THE RENEWED RIDGE BUILDS IN FROM THE
NORTHWEST LATER IN THE EXTENDED...THE MAIN THREAT FOR CONVECTION WILL
SHIFT EAST TO NEAR THE VIRGINIA BORDER AND SPINE OF THE
APPALACHIANS...STILL PRIMARILY DIURNALLY DRIVEN. DURING THIS
TIME...THE HEAT WILL BUILD IN MORE EFFECTIVELY AS THE MOISTURE WANES
AND THE UPPER RIDGE BRINGS ITS SUPPRESSION TO THE AREA. THERE WILL
REMAIN A CONSTANT THREAT OF STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS STRAFING PORTIONS
OF THE CWA THROUGH THE EXTENDED AS MCS CLUSTERS...AND THEIR POTENTIAL
TO SPAWN ACTIVITY ANEW - WELL FED BY THE AMPLE INSTABILITY IN PLACE
EACH AFTERNOON...ROAM THE FRINGES OF THE MID LEVEL HEAT BUBBLE.
SUMMER WILL CONTINUE ITS HOT AND STICKY GRIP ON OUR WEATHER THIS
UPCOMING WEEK...BUT THERE IS REASON TO HAVE HOPE FOR SOME HIT AND
MISS RELIEF FROM OUR PARCHED...DROUGHT...CONDITIONS.

THE GRID LOAD CAME IN ABOUT AS REASONABLE AS ONE CAN EXPECT FOR A
MESOSCALE DRIVEN REGIME SUCH AS THIS ONE IN PLACE. DID ADJUST THE
POPS A BIT FOR EACH NIGHT TO BETTER REFLECT A MORE STANDARD DIURNAL
PATTERN. ALSO...PUT IN A SMALL AMOUNT OF TERRAIN BASED DETAILS TO THE
LOW TEMPERATURE GRIDS...NIGHTLY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z MONDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 943 PM EDT SUN JUL 1 2012

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE MOVING ACROSS THE AREA PRODUCING LARGE HAIL
AND STRONG WINDS. THE CIGS HAVE NOT BEEN VERY LOW...HOWEVER VSBY
COULD DROP TO 2-3 SM IN THE VICINITY OF THE STRONGER STORMS. A SECOND
