Area forecast discussion, Sep 17, 6:28 AM EST, 9 hours 18 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON KY 726 AM FRI SEP 17 2004 .DISCUSSION... MODELS ARE FINALLY IN RELATIVELY GOOD AGREEMENT FOR HANDLING WHAT REMAINS OF IVAN...ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THEM UP UNTIL NOW. ONE DIFFERENCE WHICH DOES REMAIN IS THE QPF. BASED ON WHAT HAS FALLEN OVERNIGHT AND ITS RECENT HISTORY WITH TROPICAL SYSTEMS...THE ETA IS TOO LIGHT. THE GFS IS PROBABLY A BETTER REPRESENTATION...ALTHOUGH IT MAY BE SLIGHTLY HEAVY. THE SURFACE SYSTEM IS FORECAST BY AN ETA/GFS COMPROMISE TO TRACK FROM E TN THIS MORNING NE TO THE VA/NC BORDER TODAY...THEN SLOWLY E TONIGHT...BEFORE GOING SOUTH INTO NC ON SATURDAY. OF MOST SIGNIFICANCE IS THE DEEP MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH IT. A DEFORMATION ZONE...WARM AIR ADVECTION...AND RIGHT REAR QUAD OF UPPER JET WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT PRECIP TODAY. AN ETA AND GFS COMPROMISE SUGGESTS THE RAIN TAPERING OFF IN OUR WESTERN COUNTIES THIS AFTERNOON...AND EARLY THIS EVENING IN ALL BUT OUR FAR EASTERN COUNTIES. THE GFS TENDS TO HOLD ONTO IT LONGER IN THE EAST...AND HAVE LEANED THAT DIRECTION. WITH FLOODING STARTING TO BE REPORTED IN SOME COUNTIES AND SIGNIFICANT RAIN STILL TO FALL...HAVE CONTINUED THE FLOOD WATCH UP UNTIL THE TIME THAT RAIN IS FORECAST TO TAPER OFF. HAVE HAD SOME STRONG WINDS OVERNIGHT...AND WITH THE SYSTEM PASSING JUST TO OUR EAST WE WILL SEE A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT TODAY. IT APPEARS THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE IN OUR WESTERN COUNTIES. THEY LOOK MARGINAL FOR A LAKE WIND ADVISORY...AND HAVE USED ONE ON OUR WESTERN FRINGE TODAY. OTHER THAN SOME LINGERING DRIZZLE POSSIBLE IN THE EAST ON SATURDAY MORNING...WE SHOULD FINALLY DRY OUT TOMORROW...WITH SUNSHINE OR PARTIAL SUNSHINE RETURNING AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE TO THE NORTH TAKES CONTROL. THE FAIR WEATHER THEN LASTS INTO THE START OF THE NEW WORK WEEK. THE MODELS DO TRY TO BRING SOME LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BACK WESTWARD ON SUNDAY. HOWEVER...IT DOES NOT APPEAR WE WOULD SEE ANYTHING MORE THAN SOME CLOUDS IN OUR SOUTHEAST COUNTIES WITH THIS. && .PREV DISCUSSION... 620 PM THU SEP 16 2004 WHAT A DAY. AS IS TYPICAL WITH TROPICAL SYSTEMS...MODELS ARE HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME WITH THE DETAILS...IN PARTICULAR QPF AMOUNTS...AS THE REMNANTS OF IVAN MOVES MORE QUICKLY NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE APPALACHIANS. MOST NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE IS THE SPEED AT WHICH THE 12Z GFS MOVES THE SYSTEM OUT OF THE DEEP SOUTH. IF THIS PANS OUT THE RESULT WILL BE AN INCREASE IN WINDS...WITH THE BETTER ORGANIZED SYSTEM...AND SOMEWHAT LOWER QPF AMOUNTS WITH THE FASTER MOVEMENT. BUT AM HESITANT TO GO TOO FAR IN THAT DIRECTION WITH ONLY THE LATEST RUN ADVERTISING THIS. FCST SOUNDINGS STILL INDICATE HIGH PWS...AROUND 2 INCHES THROUGH EACH 6 HOUR PERIOD...AND THE SYSTEM WILL BE VERY EFFICIENT AT PRODUCING RAIN. EVERYTHING CONSIDERED...THE FINAL RESULT WILL BE TO DECREASE PRECIP TOTALS A BIT...AND DECREASE POPS SOONER THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS THE SYSTEM APPEARS TO STALL OUT FURTHER EAST...CLOSER TO THE ATLANTIC COAST...BEFORE DRIFTING BACK TO THE WEST AS AN UPPER LEVEL CUTOFF LOW. A LITTLE CAUTIOUS WITH THE EXTENDED AS THIS UPPER LOW APPEARS TO HANG AROUND IN THE GENERAL VICINITY...POSSIBLY INTERACTING WITH JEANNE. THEREFORE HAVE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS THROUGH MOST OF THE EXTENDED...AND INCREASED POPS FOR THU TO CHC WITH THE APPROACH OF THE NEXT TROUGH FROM THE PLAINS. LITTLE CHANGE TO THE TEMPS OR SKY FORECAST. && .JKL WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 6 PM TODAY FOR KYZ044-050>052-058>060-068-069-079-080-083>087-104-106-108-109-111- 112-114-116...FLOOD WATCH UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT FOR KYZ088-107-110- 113-115-117>120...LAKE WIND ADVISORY UNTIL 6 PM FOR KYZ044-050-051- 068-079-083. && HAL
