Area forecast discussion, Jun 14, 12:21 AM CDT, 1 hour 41 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Morristown TN 121 AM EDT Mon Jun 14 2021 .UPDATE... FOR 06Z AVIATION. && .DISCUSSION... Isolated showers and storms are pulsing up across the area at the current hour thanks to a weak front pushing in from the north. Still some instability left to work with this evening but forcing isn't the best. Expect coverage to remain spotty/isolated over the next few hours before the activity dissipates later tonight. An isolated severe storm can't be ruled out but significant weather advisories are more likely for any of the stronger storms. Strong and gusty winds will be the main threat with any stronger storm. Updated POPs over the next few hours to match up with current radar. Will send out new zones. SR && .AVIATION... 06Z TAF DISCUSSION. Showers and thunderstorms will continue through the first portion of the TAFs as the front approaches from the north. Expect storms to diminish in strength and coverage as the night continues. If an airport gets rain in the next few hours it could cause them to get dense fog early in the morning. After sunrise we should return to VFR conditions fairly quickly across the region.
