Area forecast discussion, Jul 14, 9:36 AM EDT, 2 hours 58 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MORRISTOWN TN
936 AM EDT TUE JUL 14 2015

.DISCUSSION...SORT OF LIKE THE WAY THE HRRRR HANDLES THE AFTERNOON
CONVECTIVE SHOW. THIS MODEL SEEMS TO UNDERSTAND THAT MORNING
CONVECTION THAT IS CURRENTLY RAKING OVER SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA AND
NORTHEAST TENNESSEE COULD SUFFICIENTLY STABILIZE THE ATMOSPHERE IN
THIS REGION TO KEEP ANY STORMS FROM BECOMING SEVERE. HOWEVER
FARTHER WEST AND SOUTH WHERE DEWPOINT TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE LOWER
70S...THE ACTION COULD BE LIVELIER. ALSO...THERE DOESN'T APPEAR TO
BE QUITE AS MUCH CLOUD MASS INHIBITING INSOLATION ACROSS WESTERN
AND CENTRAL SECTIONS OF KENTUCKY CLOSER TO WHERE THE NEW DAY'S
STRONG TO SEVERE CONVECTION MAY BUBBLE UP AS THE LAKES SHORT WAVE
DRIVES SOUTHEAST TOWARD THE OHIO VALLEY. AFTER CHECKING OUT POPS IN
THE GRIDS IT LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE SET UP WELL FOR WATCHING THE
MORNING ACTION FADE AWAY TO THE SOUTHEAST WHILE AWAITING EXPECTED
AFTERNOON THROUGH EVENING CONVECTION BUILD BACK ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
APPALACHIAN REGION. CAPES AROUND 3000-4500 J/KG ALONG WITH 35-40
KNOTS OF SHEAR SHOULD LEAD TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT WITH
THE MAIN THREAT BEING STRAIGHT LINE WIND WITH A MINOR THREAT FOR AN
ISOLATED TORNADO.
