AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
535 PM CST THU MAR 8 2012

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 535 PM CST THU MAR 8 2012

UPDATED THE AVIATION SECTION FOR 00Z TAF ISSUANCE. MINOR TWEAKS HAVE
BEEN MADE TO THE HOURLY TRENDS IN THE GRIDS. WILL BE MONITORING
OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES CLOSELY FOR THE POTENTIAL FOR TEMPERATURES TO
DROP BELOW CURRENT FORECAST LEVELS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 303 PM CST THU MAR 8 2012

CURRENT CONCERNS IN THE NEAR TERM REVOLVE AROUND HOW SOON TO END
PRECIPITATION LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING. SHORT
TERMS MODELS DIFFER ON HOW QUICKLY TO GET RID OF THIS RAIN...THAT IS
ALL POST FRONTAL. THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD QUICKLY COME TO AN END
LATER TODAY/THIS EVENING AS A NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH...NOW MOVING
ACROSS PARTS OF THE UPPER MIDWEST...CONTINUES TO SWING EAST TOWARD
THE APPALACHIANS THIS EVENING. AT THE SURFACE...HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BE STEADILY BUILDING INTO THE AREA. THE ATMOSPHERE IS EXPECTED TO
DRY OUT RATHER QUICKLY...WITH THE RAIN EXITING THE ENTIRE AREA BY
MIDNIGHT OR SO...AND SKIES BECOMING CLEAR EVERYWHERE BY 12Z FRIDAY.

MUCH COOLER/DRIER AIR WILL CONTINUE TO FILTER INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE
FRONT THAT WENT THROUGH EARLIER TODAY. NORTHWEST FLOW WILL TAKE OVER
BY LATER TONIGHT AND INTO FRIDAY...BUT THE COLDEST AIR WILL STAY
CONFINED TO THE GREAT LAKES REGION. IT WILL BE A CHILLY MORNING ON
FRIDAY AS LOWS DIP INTO THE LOWER 30S IN MANY PLACES. HIGHS ON
FRIDAY WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE 50S. THIS TIME OF THE YEAR...YOU
HAVE TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE SUN ANGLE AND ITS AFFECTS ON OUR
TEMPERATURES. FULL SUNSHINE ON FRIDAY WILL DEFINITELY HELP BOOST
TEMPERATURES. IN ADDITION...THROUGHOUT THE DAY ON FRIDAY AND
ESPECIALLY AS WE HEAD INTO FRIDAY NIGHT...UPPER LEVEL HEIGHTS WILL
BE ON THE RISE AS AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGES SLOWLY BUILD OVER THE AREA.
HOWEVER...AS THE SFC HIGH SETTLES OVER THE OHIO VALLEY FRIDAY
NIGHT/SATURDAY MORNING...IT WILL BE A COLD START TO SATURDAY. SOME
OF THE GUIDANCE NUMBERS ARE ADVERTISING LOWS IN THE MID 20S IN
SOME PLACES. THIS ESPECIALLY TRUE OVER PARTS OF SOUTHERN
IL/SOUTHWEST IN AND NORTHERN KY AS SOME PRETTY DRY AIR IS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE SFC HIGH CENTER THAT MIGRATES ACROSS THE UPPER
MIDWEST AND INTO THE OHIO VALLEY.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 303 PM CST THU MAR 8 2012

HIGH PRESSURE TO REMAIN IN CONTROL SAT AND SAT NIGHT...AS MODELS
HAVE ALL SEEMED TO COME AROUND TO A SLOWER PROGRESSION OF THE
UPPER LOW SFC TROF COMING NE OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. WILL
DELAY ONSET OF SHOWERS WITH THIS SYSTEM UNTIL SUNDAY /WEST/ AND
LATER SUN AFTN /EAST/. NEGATIVELY TILTED TROF SHOULD SWING NE
INTO THE FORECAST AREA SUNDAY NIGHT...PRODUCING WIDESPREAD SHOWER
AND POSSIBLY SOME STRONG THUNDERSTORMS. THE MAIN FACTOR AGAINST
STRONG STORM DEVELOPMENT MAY END UP BEING A LACK OF INSTABILITY
DUE TO ALL OF THE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND CLOUDS AHEAD OF THE MAIN
MID/LOWER LVL TRIGGERS.

WILL TRY TO DRY THINGS OUT A BIT FROM WEST TO EAST MONDAY...BUT
THERE WILL BE NO REAL COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE WITH THIS SFC
TROF...AND WE ARE LEFT IN A BROAD SW FLOW AT THE SFC AND ALOFT.
NO REAL TRIGGERS TO KEY ON...BUT AFTERNOONS WILL BECOME QUITE
UNSTABLE EARLY/MID WEEK AS HIGH TEMPS JUMP QUICKLY INTO THE MID
70S AND DEW POINTS RISE INTO THE MID AND UPPER 50S. CANNOT RULE
OUT POP UP ISOLATED TO SCT CONVECTION WITH THIS TYPE OF
REGIME...ESP DURING HEAT OF DAY...BUT SHOULD NOT BE ANYTHING
WIDESPREAD OR ORGANIZED. JUST WELL ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS LOOK TO BE
THE MAIN STORY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 535 PM CST THU MAR 8 2012

THE RAIN HAS ENDED...LEAVING MID-LEVEL CEILINGS BEHIND AT ALL SITES.
SOME GUSTS IN THE TEENS WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR A FEW HOURS THIS
EVENING...THEN THE PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES QUITE A BIT FOR THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS. CEILINGS WILL LIFT EVEN MORE THROUGH THE
EVENING...AND EVENTUALLY CLEAR OUT OVERNIGHT. WITH A LOT OF WATER
LYING AROUND THE AREA...AM CONCERNED WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR FOG
DEVELOPMENT AT ALL SITES TOWARD MORNING...IF WINDS SLACK OFF UNDER
5KTS. INTRODUCED 6SM BR AT ALL SITES JUST TO HINT AT THE
POSSIBILITY...AND WILL MONITOR THE SITUATION CLOSELY THIS EVENING.
HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE MORE CLARITY IN THE 06Z TAFS.
