Area Forecast Discussion

.Forecast Update...
Issued at 745 PM EDT Sat Sep 3 2022

Showers with embedded convection continue to develop along remnant
outflow boundaries from earlier in the day that continues to interact
with a steady deep moist southerly flow that promotes backbuilding
and training for heavy showers and thunderstorms. An axis oh high
PWAT values range from 1.80" to 2.00" across the CWA promoting very
high and efficient rainfall rates. With the loss of daytime heating,
instability continues to weaken but current mesoscale analysis show
CAPE values between 1500-2000 J/kg where we've seen a recent uptick
in convection. Any convection will likely become more elevated as we
go into the overnight hour and showers becoming more scattered. We
continue to monitor flooding concerns from continual heavy localized
rain as well as possible gusty winds from isolated storms.

&&

.Short Term...(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 236 PM EDT Sat Sep 3 2022

Scattered storms have begun to blossom from northwest Alabama to
western and southern Indiana as we destabilize this afternoon ahead
of an upper trough to our west. While a few storms may produce
locally gusty winds over the next few hours, locally heavy rains
will be the main threat. While the storms are moving to the NNE,
they are also tending to backbuild as they align with the deep low-
mid level flow. With deep warm cloud depths and precipitable water
values just shy of two inches, and training of cells (as has already
been witnessed in Washington County, Indiana), local flooding issues
may arise late this afternoon into the early evening hours.

The convection is developing ahead of a long and slowly deepening
upper trough reaching from the upper Great Lakes to the western Gulf
coast. This trough will stay put during the short term with deep
moisture continuing to stream into the region. As a result,
widespread shower and scattered thunderstorm chances will continue
through tonight and into Sunday. Shear and instability may be weaker
tomorrow than today, keeping severe chances low, but once again
locally heavy rain will be the main threat. Locations that receive
torrential downpours this afternoon may be particularly vulnerable
with any heavier storms Sunday.

With the clouds and high humidity, diurnal temperature ranges will
be small. Lows tonight will be in the upper 60s with highs tomorrow
around 80.

.Long Term...(Sunday night through Saturday)
Issued at 245 PM EDT Sat Sep 3 2022

Sunday Night - Wednesday...

The upper disturbance will continue to sit nearly stationary over
the mid Mississippi River Valley through mid week. This feature will
be situated between strong upper ridging over the western half of
the CONUS, and another area of upper ridging off the Atlantic Coast.
Our region will remain situated in the deep southerly flow between
the trough axis just to our west and the ridge to our east, and
given the strength of the two bookending upper ridges don't see much
change to the pattern through mid week. The end result will be
periods of slow moving showers and storms in a moist and meagerly
unstable atmosphere. In fact, very little instability looks to
survive past Sunday so will mainly be carrying shower chances with
an outside shot at a few rumbles of thunder. The moist column will
be a bigger concern by this time with PWAT values in the 1.7" - 2.0"
range. Rainfall totals may also be adding up by this time, so the
longer this pattern persists, the better chance for a few flooding
concerns. Confidence is highest in the southern and eastern portions
of the CWA seeing the most rainfall (between 1" - 3", locally
higher) between Saturday and Wednesday.

Will keep high pops in the likely to categorical range on Monday,
peaking with max diurnal heating. Thereafter, will call for
scattered to numerous showers each day through mid week.
Temperatures look to run in the upper 70s and low 80s through mid
week, a little more on the higher side of that range by then. These
values will be a little below normal for this time of year, which is
to be expected given the increased cloud cover and precipitation
chances.

Wednesday Night - Saturday...

Confidence is lower going into the late week portion of the
forecast. By this time, the upper disturbance will start to be
displaced southward along the lower Mississippi River Valley,
however deep southerly flow may remain over our region between the
elongated trough axis and upper ridging to our east. This will
continue to draw a deeper moisture component over our area from the
Gulf, but the lack of notable triggering features may leave only
diurnal heating as the main driver. Therefore, do have lower overall
pops during this time. Will also have to watch a northern stream
shortwave moving through the flow. If it makes it far enough south,
it could enhance the moisture plume over our area and squeeze out
more of a shower and storm threat late week. Something to watch.
Highs by this time should continue to be in the lower 80s for most
locations.

.Aviation...(00Z TAF Issuance)
Issued at 730 PM EDT Sat Sep 3 2022

IMPACTS: Showers with heavy rain and embedded thunder will be
scattered and at times produce MVFR to IFR flight categories.

Under a very stagnant and moist airmass weather will continue to
feature areas of showers with embedded thunder from time to time
over the duration of the TAF period. Most will be VFR through the
period but we have seen times where heavy rain associated with
thunderstorms have brought IFR to MVFR flight categories and that is
possible overnight into tomorrow. We may see the thunder threat
diminish overnight but pick back up during the day tomorrow. Given
the scattered nature of the activity with low confidence on when and
where activity will develop went with mention of vicinity in the
forecast.
