Area forecast discussion, Jun 23, 11:38 PM CDT, 58 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 1138 PM CDT THU JUN 23 2016 .UPDATE... FOR 06Z AVIATION DISCUSSION. && .DISCUSSION... At update time, we're still waiting for a line of showers and thunderstorms oriented west to east across southern KY to push into northern counties of Middle Tennessee. These storms have had a history of producing damaging straight line winds and even one cell has had a very impressive supercell structure and strong rotation associated with it. This line will press south and southeastward over the next couple of hours and while the severe weather parameters are not as impressive over the mid-state (instability waning as the sun goes down and weaker bulk shear values), we still could see a couple of severe thunderstorm warnings. The main threat will still be damaging straight line winds for our northeast counties for the next couple of hours. Made some updates a little while ago which went to increasing PoPs, otherwise the current forecast is on track. && .AVIATION... 06Z TAF DISCUSSION. BNA/CKV/CSV...Surface front is closing in on Middle Tennessee from the north as a pre-frontal band of convection penetrates deeper into the mid state. The most widespread activity is occurring east of Nashville and along the Cumberland Plateau, and the HRRR shows weakening activity lingering there well into the night. Also expect some MVFR fog at CKV and CSV later tonight and tomorrow morning. FROPA will occur after 12Z, prompting a wind shift to the WNW and also VFR cigs for much of the day. && .OHX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && DISCUSSION......Unger AVIATION........08
