Severe Thunderstorm Warning 83, NWS Louisville, KY

Area Forecast Discussion

.Short Term...(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 302 PM EDT Sun Jun 16 2019

Thunderstorms are redeveloping this afternoon in a very unstable
atmosphere ahead of a small 5H speed max coming in from southern
Illinois. Shear is moderate and wet bulb zero heights are high, but
multi-cell clusters and perhaps a brief bowing segment or two will
still be possible late this afternoon into early this evening.
Locally heavy downpours and gusty winds will be the main threats
from the storms. Will need to keep an eye on storms crossing any
local boundaries, such as gust fronts, as well, in case they can
attain any rotation. Isolated large hail isn't entirely out of the
question in the most vigorous updrafts.

Storms will gradually diminish late this evening, though a weak low
level jet may help to keep some widely scattered convection going
through the overnight hours. It will be another muggy night with
lows only around 70.

Tomorrow will be similar to today, with the same atmosphere in place
south of an east-west stationary front draped along and just north
of the Ohio River. An upper shortwave trough over the Ozarks should
help to spark storms in the afternoon. Cloudiness may be more
widespread than what we have seen today, so instability may not be
quite as great tomorrow as today. Highs will be in the 80s with dew
points around 70.

.Long Term...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 250 PM EDT Sun Jun 16 2019

...Multiple Waves of Convection This Week...

Westerly flow aloft will remain progressive this upcoming week with
multiple low-amplitude shortwaves rotating through. The first
disturbance, seen in water vapor imagery today over the southern
Plains, will be on our doorstep by Monday evening. A 25 kt SW LLJ
then noses into the region accompanied by an increase in low level
moisture transport. This wave will support numerous showers and
scattered storms Mon night into Tuesday. A marginal severe threat
should diminish fairly quickly late Monday evening with a stable
surface layer. Some destabilization looks possible for Tue
afternoon, but CAPE values won't be too high in a deep saturated
environment. PWATs of 1.75 to 2 inches will support sufficient
rainfall producers. Training cells could produce some flooding. Deep
layer shear will be on the weaker side for severe convection.

Tuesday evening into early Wednesday still looks like it could
feature a dry spell. Another somewhat stronger wave moving ESE from
the Plains will renew the chance for convection Wednesday afternoon
through Thursday. If there's going to be a longer dry stretch,
Thursday night through Friday/Friday night is the best candidate.
The upper air pattern amplifies with a ridge building east over the
eastern CONUS. Widespread convection should be confined to the
Plains and Midwest. Will continue to lean on a blended solution of
chance PoPs through next weekend due to greater model spread. Expect
seasonable temperatures through next week with hotter readings
possible next weekend.

.Aviation...(18Z TAF Issuance)
Updated at 115 PM EDT Sun Jun 16 2019

Scattered storms will develop this afternoon in a very unstable
atmosphere. Prevailing VFR conditions will be found outside of
storms, but the storms themselves will be capable of very heavy
downpours and gusty winds.

The storms will continue through this evening before slowly
weakening overnight. Renewed development of scattered storms is
expected tomorrow as the pattern and resident atmosphere will change
little.
