AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
National Weather Service Jackson KY
210 PM EDT Sat Jun 12 2021

.UPDATE...
Issued at 145 PM EDT SAT JUN 12 2021

A cluster of rogue thunderstorms have developed over northern
parts of the CWA. This area will slowly drop southeast through
portions of the CWA generally north of the Mountain Parkway per
trends and CAMs. Have updated the forecast to include this threat
and also add in the latest obs and trends for the T/Td grids.
These updates have been sent to the NDFD and web servers along
with a fresh issuance of the ZFP, HWO, and SAFs to include the
thunder chances this afternoon.

UPDATE Issued at 1025 AM EDT SAT JUN 12 2021

14Z sfc analysis shows very weak high pressure over Kentucky in
the wake of low pressure moving off to the east. This has helped
to end the threat of showers, but also left behind plenty of low
clouds and early morning fog - locally dense. The fog has now
mostly cleared but low stratus remain. Look for this to gradually
lift and clear through the rest of the morning and into the
afternoon. Cannot rule out some sprinkles in the far east through
the morning and early afternoon before the lowest clouds clear.
Currently readings are rebounding from morning lows - reaching the
low to mid 70s - while dewpoints remain miserably high in the low
70s most places amid light winds. The current forecast is on
track so have mainly just added in the latest observations and
trends to the Sky/T/Td grids. These updates have been sent to the
NDFD and web servers along with fresh issuances of the HWO, zones,
and SAFs.

UPDATE Issued at 718 AM EDT SAT JUN 12 2021

Fog and stratus continue to reside across the area, but should
start to fade away over the next few hours. At this time, no need
for any further updates.

UPDATE Issued at 454 AM EDT SAT JUN 12 2021

Had a few showers pop up over the past few hours, so updated to
toss in a few isolated showers for the next few hours before they
exit to the southeast. Also, the fog has become a bit more
widespread and dense with multiple sites reporting a quarter of a
mile or less visibility. On the fence between a dense fog advisory
and SPS, but opted to go the SPS route for now to line up with RLX
and ILN. Updated the HWO to put the dense fog in as well. Forecast
updates have been made and sent.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Sunday)
Issued at 323 AM EDT SAT JUN 12 2021

A mixture of low clouds and fog will continue to impact east
Kentucky through dawn, thanks to the recent rainfall and a fairly
moist boundary layer. All of this fog and stratus will likely
erode after dawn as heights start to build aloft and the upper
level continues to pull away from the area. This means we should
see a lot more sunshine today and this in turn will boost high
temperatures back into the mid 80s. With dewpoints only expected
to mix down into the upper 60s today and clear skies tonight, we
should see a good dose of river valley fog tonight and could be
locally dense. On Sunday, a shortwave trough will cross the
northern Mid Atlantic States, driving a cold front southward
across the area. While forcing will be weak, should be plenty of
available moisture and convergence with the front to generate a
fairly good amount of shower and storm coverage by Sunday
afternoon. As the cold front pushes southward, the threat for rain
will end from north to south Sunday evening. Activity will be have
enough movement to limit any flood threat and shear is lacking for
any better organized storms.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday night through Friday)
Issued at 404 AM EDT SAT JUN 12 2021

A cold front will be departing Eastern Kentucky for the start of the
extended, bringing a chance showers and storms early into Monday
night. These will diminish quickly post frontal and with the help of
nocturnal cooling and northerly flow. In the upper levels, a
positively tilted trough will be present across the Eastern CONUS,
while a stout ridge resides across the Midwest. At the surface, a
low will be positioned in Eastern Canada, slowly working east
through the period. A shortwave within the longwave trough will
become apparent early next week, which will dig southward through
Wednesday. It is noteworthy to highlight the GFS is most bullish
with this wave, as upper level heights are much lower across the CWA
than compared to other guidance. With that said, the GFS has dialed
down the PoPs from previous runs, but still remains the outlier when
compared to the operational ECMWF, Canadian, and ensemble data. As
the shortwave rounds the Canadian vort and digs into Tuesday, the
GFS continues to suggest a slight chance of showers/storms along the
Virginia border late Monday and again Tuesday afternoon. The NBM is
in better agreement with PoPs Monday evening/night as there is
lowering heights and low-level moisture combined with upslope flow.
Given the agreement between soundings, ensemble data, and some of
the operational models, have left slight chance showers/storms along
the Virginia border. Guidance remains fuzzy on a solution for
Tuesday afternoon, but the set-up resembles Monday, so we could see
PoPs added in future updates.

Heights will then rebound Wednesday as a surface high edges in from
the north and west, which will also increase temperatures through
the end of the period. This will leave Eastern Kentucky under the
influence of subsidence, and thus, dry weather Wednesday and
Thursday. Another upper level wave will then bring a chance for
showers/storms late Friday and into the early weekend.

Overall, highs will start out warm, ranging from the mid to upper
80s Monday afternoon. They take a dip Tuesday and Wednesday, in the
upper 70s to low 80s, before warming through the end of the period.
As with the highs, lows will start seasonable before ranging between
the low to upper 50s Tuesday and Wednesday night. They will then
trend warmer through the end of the extended period.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Sunday afternoon)
ISSUED AT 210 PM EDT SAT JUN 12 2021

Aside from a small thunder chance north, and some initial MVFR
clouds around, VFR conditions will continue through the evening
hours. We then look for some river valley fog to build up enough
to bring visibility restrictions to most TAF sites later tonight.
This fog burn off by mid morning on Sunday with VFR conditions
thereafter. Winds will remain light through the period.
