AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
331 PM EDT THU AUG 09 2012

.Short Term (Tonight through Friday Night)...
Issued at 331 PM EDT Thu Aug 9 2012

...Active Period of Weather Expected This Afternoon and Tonight...

Fairly active period of weather is shaping up for the Ohio Valley
this afternoon and tonight.  In the near term, mid-level shortwave
combined with surface temperatures hitting convective temperatures
has resulted in convection firing across the region.  Several areas
of convection are occurring across the area. The first is an
organizing line near the I-75 corridor in our eastern sections.
This is being forced by the aforementioned mid-level wave and by
diurnal heating.  This activity will continue to head east and into
WFO JKL's area over the next hour or so.  Further west, a well
defined residual outflow boundary was located along our border with
WFO IND.  This boundary extends from northern Dubois county NE to
Jefferson County.  Convection is firing along this boundary due to
strong moisture convergence and diurnal heating. This activity
should head east-southeast over the next few hours.   Finally
additional convection is firing also over west KY.  Based on the
latest runs of the LMK WRF and 4km HRRR runs, this activity should
also head east-southeast and may impact our far southwestern
counties later this afternoon.  Based on RUC proximity soundings,
this afternoon's convective activity is likely to remain in the
pulse variety with damaging winds, torrential rains and intense CG
lightning being the main threats.

Latest deterministic and ensemble model runs seem to be showing some
forecast convergence with the forecast for later this evening and
overnight.  First mid-level trough will scoot east this evening
while a secondary and more potent mid-level trough dropping down
into the Ohio Valley late tonight.  As this wave drops south,
surface cyclone near KSTL will shift northeast while associated
surface cold drags behind.  Strong mid-level height falls will
result in widespread synoptic scale lift across the region late
tonight.  This combined with forcing along the front should result
in a secondary line of convection developing to our northwest and
slide southeast overnight.  Despite this line moving through during
an instability minimum, the upper level dynamics appear to be strong
enough to support convection despite the meager instability.
Current thinking is that a convective line will generate along the
I-70 corridor and then drop southeast overnight.  The line will
likely be strong to possibly severe especially to our northwest.
However, as the line heads southeast, it is possible that line may
weaken a bit as it slides through KY.  Convection should be pushing
through southern Indiana in the 04-06Z time frame and then through
KY in the 06-11Z time frame.  Have gone ahead and bumped up PoPs for
the overnight period.  Lows will remain mild with temperatures
falling into the lower-mid 60s in the northwest and mid-upper 60s
elsewhere.

For Friday, the main forecast change here is that a lot more cloud
cover will be likely during the morning hours.  Latest model
time-height model cross sections show plenty of low-level moisture
lingering behind the frontal boundary as it pushes through.  Thus,
mostly cloudy skies seem very likely in the morning followed by
progressive clearing during the afternoon and into the evening
hours.  Highs tomorrow will be quite cool compared to what we've
seen over the last few months.  We should see readings in the upper
70s in the east with upper 70s to lower 80s in the central and
west.  Lows Friday night will be quite comfortable with lows in the
mid-upper 50s.

.Long Term (Saturday through Thursday)...
Issued at 315 AM EDT Thu Aug 9 2012

...Mostly Sunny, Dry, and Cool Weekend Ahead...

A vertically stacked unseasonably far south and strong closed low
will begin to slowly fill over Lake Huron Saturday. This system will
slowly weaken and slowly lift north towards St. James Bay by late
Sunday. In its wake, it will leave residual troughing across the
western Great Lakes and the upper Midwest.

By early Saturday, the occluded front related to this upper low will
already have moved well east of the Commonwealth. Much drier and
cooler air originating in Canada, will have overspread the state by
dawn Saturday.

Expect mostly clear skies and relatively cool temperatures for the
upcoming weekend. Dewpoints will likely fall into the lower 50s by
Saturday afternoon. Highs will struggle to exceed 80 on Saturday
with highs on Sunday warming just a few degrees into the lower 80s.
Overnight lows early Sunday will quite likely reach into the upper
50s, with perhaps our urban areas remaining near 60.

A broad longwave trough will remain centered roughly over the Great
Lakes during the early portion of next week. This will ensure no
repeat of the excessively hot temperatures of early August anytime
soon. Both the latest GFS and the ECMWF show a disturbance sliding
southeast towards the base of this longwave trough Monday and
Tuesday. This system will approach the Commonwealth by late Monday.
At the surface, this system will likely aid in the formation of a
weak surface trough that may serve as a focus for convection
beginning late Monday, possibly continuing through the bulk of
Tuesday. Will introduce a chance of storms for the later half of
Monday, extending through Tuesday.

Temperatures will warm a bit within the Monday through Thursday time
period.  However, even by Wednesday through Friday, temperatures
will not exceed our seasonal mid-August averages with highs
remaining in the upper 80s to around 90

.Aviation (18Z TAF issuance)...
Issued at 117 PM EDT Thu Aug 9 2012

Approaching mid-level wave combined with surface heating has led to
the development of scattered convection in the I-65 corridor of
central Kentucky.  Activity appears to be developing along a
residual northward moving outflow boundary.  Expect scattered
convection to continue developing across the region this afternoon.
Initially, best coverage will be across north-central Kentucky, but
as the area approaches the convective temperature, we should see
convection gradually fill in.  In general, VFR conditions are very
likely outside any thunderstorms.  If a storm impacts a terminal, a
reduction in cigs and visibilities down to possibly tempo IFR will
be possible.

More organized convection is forecast to occur later this afternoon
and evening as a secondary mid-level wave and associated surface
cold front push through the region.  These storms may pack a punch
as they move through with torrential rainfall, gusty winds, and
frequent lightning.  Timing from the previous forecast still looks
rather good with KBWG being impacted from 10/06-11Z, KSDF from
10/04-08Z and KLEX from about 10/08-12Z.  Latest model progs show
low-level moisture remaining in the region toward dawn with MVFR
visibilities and near IFR/MVFR cigs.  Low clouds will likely persist
through the morning hours on Friday with improvement likely holding
off until after 10/18Z.
