AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
544 PM CST Sun Jan 26 2014

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Tuesday night)
ISSUED AT 339 PM CST SUN JAN 26 2014

Surface analysis shows low pressure centered over central
Wisconsin and an associated cold front extending across northern
Iowa into southeast Wyoming. Models show the front moving through
the middle Mississippi and lower Ohio valleys this evening through
09z. Models show some very light post frontal precipitation across
eastern portions of the PAH forecast area between 06z and 12z.
Very cold air will be quickly filtering into our region behind
the front. Soundings indicate any light precipitation will fall as
snow, and model QPF indicate a dusting to maybe a tenth of an
inch at best. Along with any light snow, winds will really crank
up for a few hours just behind the front, also making any real
accumulation challenging. Between 06z and 12z, sustained northwest
winds of 20 to 25 kts with gusts to 35 kts are expected, gradually
decreasing to around 15 kts by 18z. Wind chill readings will drop
into the -10 to -15 degree range for a few hours late tonight into
early Monday, so will issue a wind chill advisory for our northern
counties. After morning lows in the middle single digits and
teens, temperature will struggle to reach 10 to 15 degrees north
to around 20 degrees southwest.

High pressure will continue to build southeast out of southwest
Canada Monday night. Low temperatures will range from around -3
north to around +5 degrees southwest. With north winds at 5 to 10
kts late Monday night into Tuesday morning, wind chill readings
will be in the -5 to -15 degree range. Highs Tuesday will reach
the middle to upper teens. With winds becoming light southerly
late Tuesday night, temperatures will stay above zero in the
single digits to help begin a gradual warm up.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Sunday)
ISSUED AT 316 PM CST SUN JAN 26 2014

The early week cold starts to moderate by mid week. Wednesday should
still be a day that remains below the freezing mark, but the mercury
will flirt with exceeding it, at least in the Ozark foothills.
High pressure anchors to the east and by Thursday, return flow
southerlys warm the profile back above the freezing mark. Some 40s
may be noted across our southern counties.

A cold front is approaching from the north and west during the day
Thursday, and looks to make passage Thursday night. The ECMWF is a
little more robust with it, while the GFS breaks it apart a little
bit upon passage. Both are generally light with pcpn altogether, and
so we'll have a smallish Thursday night pop for system passage. The
profile looks cold enough then for snow.

Friday into the weekend marks the beginning of a wetter forecast,
although not wet in entirety, but rather in chance category pcpn.
The aforementioned boundary looks to return as some sort of warm
sector, again the models differ a little on strength and magnitude
of said return/warming. But generally speaking for the days 6-7
period, the boundary returns north/wobbling, and transitions to
liquid pops for much of the weekend for the bulk of the area. Some
changeover or mix time may be expected as this occurs, but not
looking to be too big of an event at this stage in the game at
least. Monitor closely however, with changeover timing and some
mornings of sub freezing lows for mainly northern parts of the
region.

&&

.AVIATION...
ISSUED AT 544 PM CST SUN JAN 26 2014

With the exception of MVFR ceilings near 2kft AGL between 08z and
10z Monday at KCGI and KPAH following the passage of the next
front, VFR conditions will prevail over all of the WFO PAH TAF sites.

The main focus will be the wind speeds and gusts associated with
the pressure gradient with the approach approaching high pressure
behind the cold front.

...ANOTHER PERIOD OF BITTER COLD IS ON THE WAY...

THE BRIEF WARM UP ENJOYED TODAY WILL BE REPLACED BY ANOTHER BLAST OF
ARCTIC AIR THAT WILL SPREAD ACROSS THE REGION LATER TONIGHT AND
EARLY TOMORROW MORNING IN THE WAKE OF A STRONG COLD FRONT.

LOWS TONIGHT WILL RANGE FROM THE SINGLE DIGITS NORTH TO THE TEENS
SOUTH. TEMPERATURES WILL HARDLY RISE...IF AT ALL...THROUGH THE
DAYTIME HOURS MONDAY. SO HIGHS WILL RANGE THROUGH MAINLY THE TEENS
MONDAY AFTERNOON...WITH SOME LOWER 20S POSSIBLE SOUTH.

THEN COMES THE MOST BITTER COLD. UNDER IDEAL COOLING CONDITIONS
MONDAY NIGHT...TEMPERATURES WILL PLUMMET TO NEAR ZERO. NEGATIVE
DIGITS ARE EXPECTED IN THE NORTH. COMBINED WITH JUST A LITTLE BIT OF
WIND...THIS WILL MAKE WIND CHILL READINGS RANGE THROUGH THE NEGATIVE
DIGITS...FLIRTING WITH THE ADVISORY THRESHOLD OF MINUS 10 OR
COLDER...FROM LATE MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THE MID MORNING HOURS
TUESDAY.

EXTREME COLD IS DANGEROUS FOR ANY EXPOSED SKIN...AS FROSTBITE CAN
OCCUR QUICKLY. HYPOTHERMIA CAN DEVELOP AS WELL IF PRECAUTIONS ARE
NOT TAKEN. LEAVING PETS UNATTENDED TO IN THE COLD PUTS THEM IN
DANGER AS WELL. THESE COLD CONDITIONS ONCE AGAIN WILL INCREASE THE
CONCERN FOR FREEZING AND BURSTING OF WATER PIPES. UNLIKE CONDITIONS
ON CALM...VERY COLD NIGHTS...THIS BITTER COLD WILL BE WIND DRIVEN.
THIS CAN CAUSE THE VERY COLD AIR TO INFILTRATE POORLY INSULATED
AREAS MORE EFFICIENTLY.

TAKE SPECIAL NOTICE OF THIS COMING EXTREMELY COLD WIND
CHILLS...ESPECIALLY TUESDAY MORNING FOR THE KIDS GOING TO SCHOOL.
