River Flood Warning 14, NWS Morristown, TN

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Morristown TN
1230 PM EST Sat Feb 23 2019

.AVIATION...At the beginning of the forecast period, a large area
of mvfr conditions are around with some ifr weather; especially
at tri where the corridor of moderate rain will have an
impact for the next several hours. The band of rain north of the
advancing warm front is clearing cha and will be moving north of
tys in the next couple hours leaving these terminals in an
improved; perhaps vfr category for about 4-5 hours until pre-
frontal convection starts to build in from the Mississippi Valley.

Tried to use a gradual return to mvfr flight conditions as this
area of showers and a few thunderstorms presses steadily east
across the Great Valley. Tri may be able to see improved flight
weather in the downsloping region of northeast tennessee later
today into the later part of the evening. The band of heavier rain
along the cold front is forecast to impact cha around 06z, tys
around 07z, and tri by 08z. Flight weather improves pretty quickly
with a strong westerly flow behind the front for the last 3-5
hours of the valid forecast.

Periods of moderate to heavy rainfall will traverse the region

flooding are expected. Potential life threatening flooding is
possible.

A line of strong to marginally severe storms will move into the

Winds will increase in the higher elevations tonight into early
Sunday as the cold front approaches from the west. Wind gusts of
up to 60 mph will be possible in the high terrain.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday

...Dangerous and Potentially Life Threatening Heavy Rainfall
Leading to Widespread Flooding Across Much of East Tennessee and
Southwest Virginia...

A stalled warm front continues to promote prolonged and widespread
Flooding across much of east Tennessee and southwest Virginia.
Many roadways are inundated by flood waters. This is a
potentially life threatening situation. Motorists are strongly
urged to use caution and whatever you do, do not drive into flood
waters, and do not drive around flood barriers. Lastly, saturated
soils combined with heavy rainfall will lead to additional
mudslides on steeper slopes.

Turn Around Dont Drown!
