AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
808 PM EDT TUE APR 16 2013

.Forecast Update...
Issued at 807 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2013

Surface frontal boundary continues to slowly drift southward this
evening.  The boundary remains mainly along and north of the Ohio
River, but then dips southward into far northern Kentucky.
Scattered clusters of strong to severe convection continue to
develop along this boundary.  One storm is just northwest of the
Louisville metro area.  This storm is moving slightly south of east
and appears to be riding along a boundary produced by earlier
convection that moved across southern Indiana.  Based on the storms
current movement, it will impact Floyd county Indiana and the
Louisville/Jefferson County area within the next 30-45 minutes.

Further southwest, additional convection continues to rumble across
portions of western Kentucky.  These storms are weakening as they
are moving away from the better bulk shear that is located up across
southern Indiana, north of the Ohio River.  Some additional
convection is developing across far southwest Indiana.  These storms
will likely track northeast into our far northwestern sections over
the next several hours.

Further east, did update the forecast to increase PoPs across the
northern Bluegrass region where a training line of convection is
pushing through portions of Scott, Harrison, and Nicholas counties.

Updated at 610 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2013

Did some minor updates to the grids to account for current
convective trends across the area.  Surface frontal boundary
currently resides just north of the Ohio River this afternoon.  This
is backed up by wind and dewpoint observations nicely as  tight
dewpoint gradient exists across southern Indiana.  Convergence along
this boundary has been sufficient for clusters of convection to
develop.  Instability has been been building through the day, but a
slight cap has inhibited convection mainly south of the river.
Expect this cap to mix out a little bit in the next few hours which
would result in convection expanding in area and intensity.

VWP profiles from KLVX show a rather unidirectional shear profile
with a little bit of veering in the lowest levels.  Bulk shear
profiles are certainly more than enough for organized updraft
production and sustained convection.  With the little bit of veering
in the low levels, the veering is probably a little more pronounced
up near the front leading to slightly higher SR Helicity levels.
This combined with the unidirectional wind profiles suggest that
supercellular structures including splitting supercells look
possible.

Overall severe weather parameters suggest that damaging winds and
large hail will be the primary severe weather hazards across the
region...mainly across our northwestern half of the area for the
next few hours.  An isolated tornado threat is also possible given
the better shear profiles up along the boundary in southern
Indiana.  After coordination call with SPC, severe thunderstorm
watch number 112 has been issued until 04Z.

Updated forecast and text products are in production and will be
available shortly.

.Short Term (Tonight - Wednesday Night)...
Issued at 315 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2013

...Strong to Severe Storms Still Possible Late This Afternoon and
Evening...

Late this afternoon, a stationary front stretched from just south of
Indianapolis southwest along a line north of Paducah and the
Missouri Bootheel. This front will remain in place through the early
morning hours before developing low pressure over the southern
plains pushes it northward early Wednesday.

Moist and humid air has now arrived with dewpoints near 65 and
strong instability concentrated right along the Ohio River. This
instability, coupled with modest unidirectional wind shear are
adequate for severe weather. However, a warm layer aloft and a lack
of an upper level trigger has prevented convection so far.

Still think that scattered storms may yet develop across southern
Indiana and north central Kentucky late this afternoon or early
evening, possibly pushing across the northern Bluegrass Region by
late evening. Should storms develop, some may become strong to
severe with a potential for quarter sized hail and isolated damaging
wind gusts.

This stationary front will lift northward towards Indianapolis
during the morning hours Wednesday as low pressure forms over
Oklahoma ahead of a strong 500mb trough approaching the southern
plains. Think that convective chances, especially across central and
southern Kentucky will diminish during the day Wednesday, as 500mb
ridging temporarily builds and any moisture convergence is pushed
farther north and west along with the retreating boundary. Expect a
lot more sun and warmer temperatures by Wednesday afternoon with
highs ranging from the upper 70s to around 80.

Wednesday night will stay very mild with light southerly winds and
mostly clear skies. Lows Wednesday night will only fall into the
lower 60s.

.Long Term (Thursday through Tuesday)...
Issued at 335 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2013

Thursday through Friday Night...

...Strong to Possibly Severe Thunderstorms Possible overnight
Thursday...

Deep low pressure system and associated stout cold frontal boundary
will be approaching the Ohio Valley late in the day on Thursday.
Prior to its arrival, Kentuckiana will be quite warm with moisture
beginning to readily advect into the region from the south. While
the chance for diurnally driven storms doesn't appear completely out
of the question for locations along and north of the Ohio River, it
does look like the rest of central Kentucky will remain capped
throughout the day. However, as this time period approaches, will
need to monitor the likelihood of the cap remaining in place.
Wherever storms are able to fire up, they should remain pulse-like
with some of these storms possibly going strong to marginally severe
in the extreme western fringes of the forecast area. Confidence in
this is average at this point given the aforementioned cap in place,
potentially hindering development.

As the front approaches overnight Thursday, convection will ramp up
from west to east, especially around and after midnight. The
question is not whether or not the forecast area will get
thunderstorms but rather how intense they will be. A QLCS will
develop as the night wears on and will trek across the commonwealth,
dumping plenty of rain along the way as trailing stratiform rain is
dragged along behind the main line. The question is how strong to
severe storms could get along the leading edge. Since it will be
traversing through at night, it looks to lack the necessary
ingredient for instability to be a major factor. All other
ingredients are in place for strong to severe weather as the
dynamics of the system all come together. An intense LL jet moves in
directly overhead with the 12Z GFS depicting 70 to 80 knot 850mb
wind speeds. This, along with the UL jet yields 0-6km bulk shear
values of close to 90+ knots. Mid-level lapse rates appear to be
marginal for stronger storm development but according to the 12Z GFS
soundings across the local area, low-level lapse rates are not
terribly impressive. If any of the 850mb wind speeds are tapped into
and realized at the surface, damaging winds will be the primary
threat. This will, of course, be continued to be monitored closely
and adjusted as necessary.

For temperatures, highs will be slightly above normal on Thursday,
reaching the lower 80s. They'll struggle to drop much overnight
Thursday, only dropping into the lower 60s for the Bluegrass region
and other spots in the eastern third of the forecast area while the
rest of the area could get down into the upper 40s and 50s along the
front. During the day on Friday, the front will have pushed through
portions of the area although it appears that some showers or at the
very least clouds linger before a vigorous dry, stable airmass dives
in. With cloud cover in place and the front pushing through, temps
will struggle to get out of those morning low temperatures, meaning
highs will only be in the 50s and 60s. Clearing skies will be on
order Friday night, allowing for temperatures to drop off into the
mid to upper 30s by Saturday morning.

Saturday through Tuesday...

The weekend will be benign and on the cooler side of spring-like
weather with highs in the 50s and 60s on Saturday and Sunday,
respectively. Low temperatures will once again be in the 30s to
start the day on Sunday but will be slightly warmer for Monday
morning, only getting down into the 40s. By Monday afternoon, clouds
will once again encroach on the region from the north and west as
the next frontal boundary approaches by Tuesday. Forecast confidence
this far out is still relatively low in timing for the next precip
chances but for now, it looks like some diurnally-driven convection
could fire up during the afternoon/evening on Monday, primarily in
the north, with some showers and storms possibly lingering on into
the overnight hours Monday. By Tuesday, higher chances for precip
exists out in front of that next frontal boundary. Temperatures
should be moderating toward normal by this point in the forecast
period but again, forecast confidence is low for now.

.Aviation (00Z TAF Issuance)...
Issued at 710 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2013

Quasi-stationary frontal boundary is located just along and north of
the Ohio River this evening.  Several clusters of convection are
moving east-northeast along this boundary and so far have remained
generally along and north of the Ohio River.  Additional convection
is developing further southwestward over toward the KOWB area and
these storms are expected to move east this evening into
north-central Kentucky.

KSDF is probably at the most risk of seeing convection this
evening.  Some outflow from the storms to the north may impact the
terminal over the next hour and result in winds out of the north.
This should be fairly short lived and winds should shift back to the
south as the evening wears on.  For now, plan on carrying VCTS
through at least 17/02Z and will continue to keep a close weather
watch and update the TAF if required.  Ceilings should remain VFR
overnight but we'll likely see a broken deck around 4-6Kft AGL
overnight.  This should mix out Thursday morning.

Down at KBWG, generally dry conditions are expected this evening
with winds remaining out of the south to southwest at 5-10kts.
These winds should slacken off after sunset.  Ceilings are expected
to remain VFR overnight and into Thursday with winds picking back up
Thursday morning.

Over at KLEX, mainly dry conditions are expected this evening.
There area few stray showers out across east-central Kentucky.  Some
additional convection may fire along any outflow boundary coming in
from the north, so will continue to run with a VCSH group in through
at least 17/02Z. VFR cigs at 4-6kft AGL are expected overnight and
are also expected to mix out Thursday morning.  Winds overnight will
generally be out of the south or southeast with speeds of less than
8 kts.
