Area forecast discussion, Sep 10, 3:07 AM EDT, 3 hours 4 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Morristown TN 307 AM EDT Sun Sep 10 2017 .SHORT TERM (Today and tonight)... One more pleasant day for East TN before we begin to feel the effects of Irma's remains. Winds in the 925-700 mb layer will be at an easterly direction, creating a downslope flow that will help warm temps in the Valley a little. With this and mostly sunny skies, highs should reach into the 75 to 80 range in most spots. High clouds on the fringes of Irma may begin to increase late tonight in southern portions of the area. .LONG TERM (Monday through Saturday)... NHC has the track of Hurricane Irma moving through GA and across northern AL. Because of the increased time over land ahead of Irma's much anticipated arrival...wind speeds and moisture will be slightly lower than our states to the south...and the time period of heavy rain and gusty winds will therefore be slightly shorter than previously forecasted. Wind speeds and rain accumulation totals are expected to increase from east to west across the Southern Appalachians beginning early Monday afternoon. By Tuesday morning...the rainfall accumulation and wind speeds will have reached the peak values. The greatest chance for higher wind gusts and highest rain accumulation will be in areas south of I40...as well as the higher elevations of eastern TN. Prevailing winds of around 25-35 kts are expected...along gusts around 40-50 mph. Rainfall accumulation totals will be between 2-4 inches with locally higher amounts possible if the rain bands bring strong showers across the same area. Areas north of I40 will be farther away from the center of the low...and with less dynamics and moisture. Wind speeds will be between 15-25 mph with gusts around 30- 40 mph. Rainfall accumulations will around 1-2 inches. With these wind speeds across the entire area, several trees and powerlines could be knocked down...as well as localized power outages. The rainfall accumulation totals could cause flooding problems...especailly in areas that do not drain well or have a history of flooding. The system then continues to weaken and move east...and will then take most of the moisture and lift with it temporarily...allowing for only light scattered showers to remain through late Tuesday night through much of Wednesday. Wednesday night through Thursday afternoon...models are fairly consistent on this low getting picked up by an upper level trough moving through the northern Ohio Valley. Rain chances will increase one last time from SW to NE as the remnants of Irma shoot to the NE and become an event of the past. Friday and Saturday...diurnal showers are possible...with the greatest chances on the Plateau and higher elevations of east TN...as well as NE TN and SW VA. Mid and low level flow will be from the SW...keeping a decent amount of moisture over the area. Temperatures will be at least 10 degrees below normal from Monday through Wednesday due to the cloud cover and rain showers. By Thursday...a gradual warming trend will be in place as clouds begin to clear and SW flow slowly brings warm and moist air to the area. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
