SMITHWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Paducah, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Jun 26, 6:41 PM CDT, 1 hour 34 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 26, 6:41 PM CDT, 1 hour 34 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY 641 PM CDT WED JUN 26 2013 .UPDATE... ISSUED AT 629 PM CDT WED JUN 26 2013 UPDATED THE AVIATION SECTION FOR THE 00Z TAF ISSUANCE. && .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 1248 PM CDT WED JUN 26 2013 ONGOING CONVECTION HAS QUIETED ATTM...HOWEVER...LAPS DATA DOES SHOW SURFACE BASED CAPES RIDGING AT 3K PLUS J/KG ALONG OUR SOUTHERN/EASTERN CWA BORDER...AS WELL AS JUST WEST OF THIS MORNING'S CONVECTION ACROSS SCNTL MO. THE PROBLEM THERE IS THAT THE SOUNDINGS FROM SGF/LZK SHOW A WARM LAYER ALOFT THAT MAY CAP CONVECTIVE CHANCES SOMEWHERE TO OUR WEST...THEN THE CONVECTIVE INHIBITION ERODES AS YOU GO FURTHER EAST. HENCE THE JUST ISSUED SVR TSM WATCH MAINLY EAST OF THE MS RIVER. WILL CARRY POPS FA-WIDE THOUGH...TAPERING FROM LOWEST WEST TO HIGHEST EAST. DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREAT. LAKE WIND ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE THRU DIURNAL HOURS WITH 10-20 MPH AVERAGES AND SOME HIGHER GUSTS. HEAT INDEX OUTSIDE OF CONVECTIVE AREAS ARE MEETING TRIPLE DIGITS AS EXPECTED SO OUR STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTING HEAT INDEX LIKEWISE REMAINS IN EFFECT. THE MESO-MODELING SUGGESTS A SLIGHT EASTWARD/SOUTHWARD SHIFT IN MAX PCPN AREA BUT NOT ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE US ENTIRELY. BUT AFTER TONIGHT...WE ANTICIPATE A DRY WINDOW THURSDAY AS FLOW BEGINS TRANSITION TO NWLYS ALOFT. .LONG TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY) ISSUED AT 243 PM CDT WED JUN 26 2013 IN THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THIS FORECAST...THE ATTENDANT SHORTWAVE THAT PLACED THE WFO PAH FORECAST AREA INTO NORTHWEST FLOW HAS ALREADY PUSHED EAST OF THE AREA. HOWEVER...THE SURFACE FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS FIXED ACROSS SOUTHWEST SECTIONS OF THE AREA...MAINLY OVER SOUTHEAST MO/EXTREME SOUTHERN IL/SOUTHWEST KY INTO EARLY FRIDAY. GIVEN THE FAST FLOW ALOFT IN THE VICINITY OF CHANNELED VORTICITY FURTHER TO THE NORTHEAST...KEPT A SMALL CHANCE FOR CONVECTION IN PLACE. THERE IS A BRIEF PERIOD OF CLEARING LATE FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT AS THE SURFACE BOUNDARY IS PUSHED SOUTH OF THE WFO PAH FORECAST AREA. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE ROTATES THROUGH THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES AROUND THE MAIN CLOSED LOW IN THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES/NORTHEAST FRIDAY NIGHT. LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOW WILL ACCESS ENOUGH MOISTURE TO AT GENERATE A SMALL CHANCE OF ELEVATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE AREA ON SATURDAY...OVERSPREADING THE REMAINDER OF THE WFO PAH FORECAST AREA ON SUNDAY. FROM SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...AS THE MID-ATLANTIC HIGH BUILDS AND THE WESTERN U.S. RIDGE REMAINS FIXED...THE DEVELOPING CLOSED LOW OVER THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES RETROGRADES AND DROPS SOUTH INTO THE MIDDLE AND LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. GIVEN UNCERTAINTY ASSOCIATED WITH THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE UPPER LOW...LEANED TOWARD A BLEND OF THE ECMWF/GFS MODEL SOLUTIONS. THIS WILL LEAD TOWARD A MORE HOMOGENIZED POPS/WEATHER GIVEN THE PROXIMITY OF THE UPPER LOW WITHIN OR NEAR THE WFO PAH FORECAST AREA. THERE MAY BE MORE NON- DIURNAL CHANCES FOR RAIN AS THE LOW RESIDES WITHIN THE AREA BETWEEN SUNDAY INTO NEXT WEDNESDAY. ONE BENEFIT WILL BE LOWER THICKNESSES /LOWER TEMPERATURES/ DUE TO INCREASE CLOUDS...RAIN CHANCES AND WEAK COLD AIR ADVECTION GIVEN PERSISTENT NORTHWEST SURFACE FLOW. TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN IN THE LOW TO MIDDLE 80S /EVEN UPPER 70S AT SOME LOCATIONS SUNDAY/ THROUGH MONDAY...RETURNING TO THE 90S NEXT TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. && .AVIATION...
