Flash Flood Warning 61, NWS Paducah, KY

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Paducah KY
329 PM CDT Tue Jun 30 2020

.SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Thursday night)
Issued at 320 PM CDT Tue Jun 30 2020

Pattern remains essentially stagnant, with meandering mid/upper
low situated over the mid MS River Valley, and very moist and
unstable air in place over the lower OH Valley. PWATs continue to
hover up close to 2 inches or so, extremely high for even this
time of year. Unfortunately, this leaves us looking to more of
the same, with additional rounds of thunderstorms with torrential
downpours likely at many locations along the MS River Valley
tonight into Wednesday. the flow around the upper low will become
more nwly with time, and should support most activity moving sse
down the river valley. One will likely impact the region late
this afternoon and into the evening, evolving from just south the
St Louis metro area. Another is expected is congeal later tonight
into Wed morning, possibly a bit farther west than the first.
Consequently, will continue the ongoing flash flood watch tonight.
Decided to go ahead and extent it through tomorrow at this point,
with much of the of the region in marginal to slight risk on the
WPC Day 2 Excessive Rain Outlook. Once again, if we manage to get
some decent heating Wed during the day, we cannot rule out an
isolated damaging wind gust here and there. Overall, severe risk
looks to be on the low side, esp compared to the heavy rain
potential.

Eventually, as we head into Wed night/Thu time frame, upper level
ridging should begin to build in from the west. This would lessen
the shower/thunderstorm coverage, even during the daylight hours.
Hot and humid conditions will remain, however, with highs up near
90 and dew points in the lower half of the 70s.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Tuesday)
Issued at 320 PM CDT Tue Jun 30 2020

There is fairly good confidence on a less active and seasonably warm
pattern through the extended.

Surface high pressure will nudge southward into our cwa late this
week. With a northeast surface flow in place, somewhat drier air
will work into the region. This will result in limited PoP chances,
and possibly completely dry conditions on Friday and Saturday.

There is some model variability later in the weekend and early next
week with regards to how far north the deeper moisture associated
with a weak upper low over the Gulf Coast states ends up making it.
The best dynamics and thus majority of precipitation is expected to
remain south of our area. However, there is enough of a signal to
continue with the low chance PoPs Sunday through Tuesday.

With some influence from the upper ridge axis situated to our west,
temperatures look to remain near early July normals, with highs
around 90/lower 90s and lows around 70. Humidity levels will remain
fairly uncomfortable with dewpoints in the mid 60s to around 70, but
this won't be as oppressive compared to the current airmass in
place. Heat index values look to top out in the mid 90s most days.
