 RADAR ESTIMATES RAINFALL AMOUNT OF 4 TO 5 INCHES ACROSS CHEROKEE

.DISCUSSION...

A SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVING ACROSS THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AND A WEAK
FRONTAL BOUNDARY HAS MAINTAINED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
FAIRLY WELL THIS MORNING ACROSS NORTHERN ALABAMA AND SOUTHERN
TENNESSEE. CLOUD COVER IS RATHER WIDESPREAD FROM THE I-20 CORRIDOR
NORTHWARD WITH PARTLY TO SUNNY SKIES SOUTHWARD. DESPITE THE CLOUD
COVER MOST AREA HAVE WARMED UP INTO THE UPPER 70S TO LOW 80S BY 10
AM. DEWPOINTS HAVE INCREASED ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA WITH DEWPOINTS
IN MOST LOCATIONS IN THE LOWER 70S AS SOUTHERLY WINDS ADVECT IN
HIGHER MOISTURE. THE HRRR AND RAP ARE PRETTY AGGRESSIVE WITH
CONVECTIVE INITIATION LATER THIS AFTERNOON. ADDITIONALLY...THERE
ARE A FEW OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES ALONG THE I-85 CORRIDOR FROM
CONVECTION OVERNIGHT THAT WILL AID IN CONVECTIVE INITIATION. DUE
TO THIS INCREASED POPS ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST. DIFFERENTIAL HEATING
BOUNDARIES COULD ALSO AID IN CONVECTIVE INITIATION BETWEEN THE
I-20 AND I-85 CORRIDOR. MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE THAT SBCAPE WILL
BE ON THE ORDER OF 2000 TO 3000 J/KG LATER THIS AFTERNOON.
HOWEVER...DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL BE RATHER WEAK BUT A FEW STRONG
STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH GUSTY WINDS. TEMPERATURES LOOK TO BE
IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE AND NO ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE TO HIGHS FOR
TODAY. UPDATES IN POPS WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED THROUGHOUT THE DAY AS
CONVECTION DEVELOPS LATE THIS MORNING AND INTO THE AFTERNOON.

.AVIATION...
18Z TAF DISCUSSION.

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE ONGOING ACROSS PORTIONS OF
CENTRAL ALABAMA. THESE STORMS WILL AFFECT THE BHM...EET...AND ANB
TERMINALS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. RAINFALL COULD BE HEAVY
WITHIN THESE STORMS...REDUCING VISIBILITES TO BELOW MVFR. THIS
ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO MAKE A SLOW PROGRESSION TO THE
EAST...MOVING OUT OF THE VICINITY OF THE TAF SITES BY MID
AFTERNOON. THUNDERSTORM OCCURENCES AT OTHER TAF SITES MAY
OCCUR...HOWEVER CONFIDENCE ON TIMING AND LOCATION IS NOT HIGH AND
HAVE KEPT ONLY MENTION OF VCTS.

THUNDERSTORM ACITIVITY IS EXPECTED TO DIMINISH IN COVERAGE SHORTLY
AFTER SUNSET. THERE COULD BE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS STILL ONGOING
THROUGH MIDNIGHT...HOWEVER CONFIDENCE REMAINS TOO LOW TO MENTION
IN THIS TAF CYCLE. BY EARLY THURSDAY MORNING...ALONG WITH SOME
ISENTROPIC LIFT ACROSS THE AREA...LOW CLOUDS AND FOG ARE EXPECTED
TO DEVELOP AT ALL OF THE TAF SITES. AS THE BOUNDARY LAYER MIXES
AFTER SUNRISE...FOG AND LOW CLOUDS WILL LIFT. A COLD FRONT WILL
BEGIN TO APPROACH THE STATE TOWARDS THE END OF THIS TAF CYCLE AND
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BEGIN TO SPREAD INTO CENTRAL
ALABAMA BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON.
