What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Charleston, WV wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 24, 2:34 PM EDT, 3 hours 55 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 24, 2:34 PM EDT, 3 hours 55 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Charleston WV
234 PM EDT Mon Jun 24 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
A warm front will bring summer-like weather for much of the
week. Several disturbances will result in unsettled weather
early in the workweek. Summer-time heat and humidity for late
week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 1253 PM Monday...

Upper low/trough evident on satellite imagery this morning across
the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes region will slowly drift eastward
today, along with a remnant mcv currently on satellite across
central KY. This upper trough will take on a negative tilt across
the area as it does so, with the potential for severe thunderstorms
developing this afternoon. Strengthening low level jet in response
will aid in increased moisture transport to the area, with PW values
progged to climb near to 2 inches. At the surface, low pressure
moving across the Great Lakes will sweep a cold front through the
region late tonight.  SPC mesoscale analysis indicates strong cape
has developed across the region, generally on the order of 2000-2500
J/KG. Damaging winds will be the primary threat today with any
convection that develops, and spc has placed the entire CWA in an
enhanced risk, with damaging winds the primary threat, although
tornadoes cannot be ruled out either. Convection will generally move
off to the east later tonight, with a few lingering showers/isold
thunderstorm potential lingering in association with the cold front,
although atmosphere should generally be well worked over by late
tonight.

Cloud cover may linger across much of the area to start Tuesday, but
should see it scatter out by mid to late morning, with warm but
sunny conditions taking hold.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 233 PM Monday...

Sfc high pressure axis should be in control across the region
resulting in dry weather into Wednesday. However, another cold
front will approach the region by late Wednesday and then
become stationary to our north through Thursday. As a result,
have low chance of showers and storms across our northern
counties Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday evening.

Above normal temperatures are anticipated.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 233 PM Monday...

At the surface, high pressure should remain in control into
Saturday. However, models suggest a mid-level shortwave will
dig southeast resulting in nwly mid-level flow across the
region by Saturday morning. Shower and thunderstorm chances
should begin to increase Friday afternoon with better chances
over the weekend. Would think the showers and storms could be
diurnal in nature on Saturday. However, shortwaves passing
through the nw flow could result in precipitation chances at
about any time.

There may be a cold front that pushes south across the region
On Sunday with weak high pressure building into the area by
Monday.

Went with a blend of temperature guidance resulting in above
normal values Friday and Saturday. Temperatures could be a
little cooler Sunday and Monday.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 135 PM Monday...

Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to develop
this afternoon and evening, particularly in the 20Z to 03Z time
frame. Expect brief IFR/LIFR conditions in vcnty of storms,
along with strong/damaging winds over 60 kts possible.

Bulk of convection will taper off after 03Z, with sct -shra
lingering and widespread MVFR stratus. Gradual return to VFR
with light surface winds after 13Z, with mountainous locations
slower to return to VFR.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: Medium.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Timing of convection and associated
restrictions this afternoon may vary from current forecast.
Development and duration of MVFR cigs overnight may vary from
forecast.
