Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Louisville KY
311 PM EST Sat Feb 23 2019

.Short Term...(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 305 PM EST Sat Feb 23 2019

...Flash Flooding and Severe Storm Risk through Late Evening...
...Windy Sunday...

A complex of showers and storms over western KY and central and
western portions of TN will continue to spread northeast over
central KY/southern Indiana late this afternoon.  Soundings indicate
an elevated environment ahead of this complex due to the presence of
a strong LLJ.  Because of this, not expecting any immediate severe
risk through early evening.  However, an isolated t-storm may
produce small hail ahead of the main storm complex.  The main threat
with this afternoon/early evening round of convection will be heavy
rain and flooding.  With excellent upper/lower jet support and
higher precipitable water values entering the region, expect
efficient rain producers and moderate to heavy rainfall rates
especially in t-storms.  While the Flash Flood Watch still looks to
be in good shape highlighting the area at most risk, south central
KY is especially a concern as they received up to an 1" of rain
already this morning.

The next round of showers/storms will come mid to late evening
primarily between 0-6Z tonight.  We'll enter a more sfc based
environment after the first storm complex moves northeast through
portions of the region.  A line or broken line of showers/storms is
expected to develop just ahead of the cold front and push through
mid to late evening. High-res models still show a thin line of
SBCAPE mainly crossing south central KY later this evening. Also,
favorable wind fields will support rotating cellular structures.
southern KY will be the focus for strong to severe storms containing
damaging winds and potentially an isolated tornado.  In addition,
the flash flood threat will continue area wide.  All of the
showers/storms should exit the region by around midnight.

Behind the cold front, winds will shift to the west-southwest and
become very gusty in a tight pressure gradient on the back side of
the low pressure system.  Wind gusts in excess of 35 mph will be
likely late tonight through Sunday area-wide.  Wind gusts of 40-45
mph will be most likely over southern Indiana and portions of north
central KY so a Wind Advisory will be issued for that area.

Temperatures will fall into the 40s tonight behind the cold front
and top out in the mid 40s to lower 50s for Sunday highs.

&&

.Long Term...(Sunday night through Saturday)
Issued at 315 PM EST Sat Feb 23 2019

Sunday Night - Wednesday...

Expansive surface high pressure will center of the northern Plains
and then into the Great Lakes region during the early to mid week
time frame. Meanwhile, dry and zonal flow will dominate the upper
pattern into mid week. The combination of these two features will
keep us dry at least through the first part of Wednesday. High
temperatures should run mostly in the mid and upper 40s for highs
across southern IN and central KY. Southern KY will likely reach the
low 50s each day. Lows are expected to be in the 20s Sunday/Monday
night, and then warm to the low and mid 30s for Tuesday night. These
temperatures are at or just below normal for this time of year.

Wednesday Night - Saturday...

Zonal flow is expected to persist over the area through the late
week and into the weekend time frame. However, there will be several
weak disturbances passing through the upper flow that could bring
some precipitation chances. See no reason to change this statement
from the previous forecast...

Low-confidence forecast for the late week and early weekend time
frame as the models diverge. Zonal pattern makes it difficult to
time the weak ripples crossing the area, so for now will go with a
fairly broad-brush 20-30 POP for the latter half of the week.
Whenever precip does fall, it will be scattered and light. Temp
forecast is near normal, which could result in precip type
questions. However it's worth noting that the colder Euro solution
is also a dry solution, while the GFS has warmer temps to go with
its precip chances. In light of that, the chances for wintry weather
are actually quite low.

&&

.Aviation...(18Z TAF Issuance)
Updated at 1245 PM EST Sat Feb 23 2019

An active TAF period is in store as a low pressure system passing
through the upper Midwest brings showers and storms through the
region as well as strong winds.  Showers with embedded t-storms are
likely at the TAF sites this afternoon.  The chance for t-storms
increases this evening with some of those producing locally strong
winds. Have included tempos in the TAF sites highlighting a period
of moderate rains reducing flight conditions to IFR this
afternoon/early evening and then a period of stronger storms/wind
gusts between 23-6Z across the region.  Showers and storms should
cease after the cold front passes through between 5-9Z with flight
conditions returning to VFR or high end MVFR.  MVFR conditions will
return tomorrow mid morning through afternoon.

A strong low level jet will accompany this weather system beginning
around 0-1Z and continuing through the overnight period.  Winds from
the SW of 40-45 kts are likely at 2 kft AGL.  While early evening
sfc winds will be more subdued outside of convection (winds out of
the south gusting to 25 kts), after 6Z we will see an increase in
sfc winds (winds out of the SW with gusts 25-30 kts) and the latter
half of the overnight period may not truly contain LLWS as winds
aloft mix down more efficiently and persistently. All LLWS is gone
by sunrise or just before with gusty sfc winds (winds out of the WSW
with gusts 30-35 kts) continuing throughout the day tomorrow under a
tight sfc pressure gradient.
