AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
247 PM CDT Tue Jul 1 2014

.SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Thursday night)
Issued at 247 PM CDT TUE JUL 1 2014

The northwest and northern edges of the warm sector this afternoon
are lined up right on the western and northern edges of our
forecast area. Look for thunderstorm development to expand
northeast along the edge of the warm sector between I-64 and
Highway 13 in southern Illinois over the next hour or two, as the
main cluster of storms pushes east, ahead of the MCV over southwest
Missouri, and into southeast Missouri. The convection will then
march eastward across the remainder of the area into the early
evening. The latest HRRR has things over with shortly after 00Z.
Severe Watch 383 has been issued through 03Z, but figure it will
be done before then.

Still looking for multicell storms pulsing occasionally to produce
damaging winds. Not sure if there is enough shear to support or
sustain linear development, but if this happens, the damaging wind
threat would increase. Just not sure about severe hail, but would
not be surprised for some small hail. Torrential rain can be
expected with any of the storms.

Figure that the main activity will be done this evening, and
although surface winds will be west or northwest tonight, the low-
level airmass will remain quite warm and moist across at least the
southeast half of the area. Cannot rule out some convective
activity there overnight or even into Wednesday, with the main
mid/upper-level trough moving through the region.

The GFS seems to be holding back the cold advection for Wednesday,
which makes sense, so will lean closer to the warmer MAV numbers
for highs Wednesday. Much cooler, drier air is coming for
Wednesday night and Thursday. Consensus guidance seems to have a
good handle on this.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Tuesday)
Issued at 247 PM CDT TUE JUL 1 2014

Models continue to show high pressure in control of our weather
Friday into Saturday.  Drier and milder air will accompany the high,
with temperatures 5 to 10 degrees below seasonal averages and dew
points in the middle 50s to around 60 degrees.  This will make for
one of the more pleasant 4th of July holidays in quite a while.  By
the end of the holiday weekend, high pressure moving off the east
coast and the development of a slow moving cold front across the
Plains will lead to winds shifting back to the south.  Temperatures
and moisture will quickly increase across our region, with near
normal temperatures and dew points climbing back into the middle to
upper 60s on Sunday.

GFS and ECMWF part company Sunday night.  GFS generates some light
QPF across our northern and western counties associated with an
upper level wave ahead of the approaching cold front, while ECMWF
keeps our area dry.  With GEM keeping any precip just north of our
region, continued with dry conditions Sunday night for now.  Models
continue to waffle with precipitation chances on Monday, leaning
drier right now.  We already had some low pops going, so just went
with slight chance pops across some of our west and northwest
counties for Monday.  For Monday night into Tuesday, latest GFS and
ECMWF are back in better agreement, bringing the cold front
southeast and generating some precip across our northern counties by
late Monday night.  Went with slight chance pops across our north
Monday night, then increased pops across the entire area on Tuesday.

.AVIATION...
Issued at 1231 PM CDT TUE JUL 1 2014

Little of concern for the TAFs other than convection this
afternoon/evening. KCGI looks to be right in the area of best
convergence and TCU development according to latest observations.
Will insert a VCTS there to begin the TAF. It appears that a larger area
of convection will develop to the west over southeast Missouri
and reach KCGI by 21Z, so will use that as the beginning of TSRA
in a TEMPO. Elsewhere, confidence in timing and coverage preclude
TSRA in the TAF. Will have VCTS at KPAH and KOWB late afternoon
and early evening, as some should storms should at least be
nearby. KEVV may be just north of the development today. Will
monitor through the afternoon and amend as necessary based on
radar trends.

Could see some healthy gusts with any storms that reach a
terminal today, and outflow boundaries could play havoc with all
terminals through the early evening. Otherwise, west southwest
winds this afternoon will eventually become northwest with mixing
Wednesday morning.
