Area forecast discussion, Nov 6, 11:23 PM CST, 53 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 1123 PM CST Mon Nov 6 2017 .UPDATE... FOR 06Z AVIATION DISCUSSION. && .DISCUSSION... Latest radar imagery shows widespread light to moderate rain with a few embedded thunderstorms continues to spread eastward across Middle Tennessee, now entering the Upper Cumberland. Regional radar imagery shows activity still extends westward into Arkansas, so off and on rain with some lightning and thunder will continue through the night before ending from west to east after sunrise Tuesday morning. Have raised pops this evening and tonight in line with latest HRRR model runs. Surface observations show frontal boundary has sagged southward to just south of the Alabama border, with all of Middle Tennessee now in the stable cool surface layer north of the front. Temperatures will therefore remain steady or only drop slightly the rest of the night. OOZ OHX sounding shows elevated instability up to 250 J/Kg is present north of the front along with deep layer shear up to 55 knots, so cannot rule out an isolated strong storm or two with small hail overnight - mainly across southern counties closer to the surface front. && .AVIATION... 06Z TAF DISCUSSION. As of 05Z a few thunderstorms are training across the I-40 corridor of middle TN. Earlier there was some strong gusty winds but now the main threat is heavy rainfall through 10Z or so. All TAF sites are IFR to LIFR and will stay that way for the overnight hours. Even after the rain tappers off /around 12Z or so/ to -DZ ceilings will still be IFR. Winds are in the process to turning northerly and expect gusty north winds of 15KTs or so around 22Z and then becoming sustained at 7-10KTs after sunset. CKV will be the first to improve and have it becoming MVFR around 02Z. This may be a bit optimistic. && .OHX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && DISCUSSION......Shamburger AVIATION........12
