Area forecast discussion, Jun 26, 12:41 PM CDT, 4 hours 57 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 1241 PM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024 ...New AVIATION... .SHORT TERM... (This afternoon through Friday Night) Issued at 1204 PM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024 An upstream shortwave is poised to move through the area tonight. PVA in advance of this feature is expected to work into the area beginning later this afternoon. This will serve to act upon an increasing area of instability and hence, we will see thunderstorm development by late this afternoon. We are in a marginal risk for severe with the primary threat being straight line damaging wind potential. 850 mb wind speeds are only around 15-20 kts so vertical storm height/structure will need to be sufficient enough so as to reach strong to severe levels. Quite a bit of cloud cover in place now so additional cape increase may be somewhat mitigated. That said, we do see some current values approaching 2000 j/kg in our east. Moving on, a fair deal of moisture will reside into Thursday morning. We could still see some lingering showers/a few tstms into the morning hours. Otherwise, heights will be on the increase with an upper high developing across TX. Westerlies will shift north leaving a large zone of ridging across the mid and deep south. This will equate to a marked decrease in pop values with just minimal inclusion for Thursday night through Friday night. For the near term temps, the shortwave will be bringing a welcomed break through Thursday with highs holding in the 80s. This wont last long though as the aforementioned height increase takes over and sends us back int the 90s on Friday. && .LONG TERM... (Saturday through next Wednesday) Issued at 1204 PM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024 In the extended forecast, the upper high over TX will bring the heat but it looks as though it will remain to our southwest. This will allow a weak but entrenched west northwesterly ul flow to prevail. We might get a boundary through here on Saturday night which will bring another round of shower and tstm chances with it. Tough to get boundaries though the area this time of year. However, the Euro and GFS solutions are both on board with brining the boundary through. Plenty of instability will welcome the boundary so keep an eye for Saturday. No outlook as of yet but that may change. Moving on, dry weather returns with the surface high to our north in control. Meanwhile, the upper ridging looks poised to take over our weather pattern by mid week. Thus, hot and dry weather to set up. Those extended temperatures will feature a noticeable variability. Saturday, ahead of the boundary, it will be quite hot and in the 90s for most areas. Sunday and Monday will contain a 10 degree cooldown with that surface high to our north being in control. Then, back up into the 90s again with the upper ridge returning. As for the tropics? the Atlantic looks clean for the most part. There are a couple of disturbances just north of the itcz with only low probabilities of reaching tropical organization levels. The 6 to 14 day outlook calls for above normal temps and below normal precip. Looks like more hot weather is on the way. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1236 PM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024 VFR conditions the next few hours. A line of scattered showers and thunderstorms will move into the northwest after 20z and will continue to push to the east through 04z. IFR/LIFR in thunderstorms due to low cigs, low vis, and heavy rain. Low cigs will build in behind the line of showers and thunderstorms with cigs falling to LIFR overnight. Cigs will start to improve after 15z and should return to VFR by 18z tomorrow. Southerly winds under 10 knots this afternoon shifting to the north overnight. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
