NORTHEASTERN KENTUCKY...SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA...AND MOST OF WEST VIRGINIA. .DAY ONE... THE THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS REMAINS IN THE FORECAST. WITH A VERY MOIST AIR MASS IN PLACE...ANY THUNDERSTORM CAN PRODUCE LOCALLY EXCESSIVE RAINFALL. ANY FLOOD WATCHES WILL BE ISSUED AS WARRANTED BASED MOSTLY ON SHORT TERM TRENDS. THOSE AREAS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN PRIMED...SOUTHEASTERN OHIO AND SOUTHERN AND WESTERN VIRGINIA ARE THE AREAS OF PRIMARY CONCERN AS IT WILL TAKE LESS RAIN TO CAUSE FLOODING PROBLEMS. MOST OF THE AREA HAS BEEN PLACED IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TODAY AND TONIGHT. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCE DAMAGING WINDS OF 58 MPH OR GREATER AND/OR LARGE HAIL. HOWEVER...EVEN STRONG WINDS OF LESS THAN 58 MPH CAN BRING TREES DOWN GIVEN SATURATED SOILS. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN... THE THREAT FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE IN AND OUT OF THE FORECAST...AS DRIER AIR PUNCHES INTO THE REGION...ONLY TO GIVE WAY TO THE VERY WARM AND HUMID AIR AGAIN. IF ANYTHING...THE FREQUENT CHANGE IN AIR MASS ONLY PROVIDES ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITY FOR HAZARDOUS WEATHER. AGAIN...ANY FLOOD WATCHES WILL BE ISSUED AS WARRANTED BASED MOSTLY ON SHORT TERM TRENDS. ALSO...THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER CROPPING UP AGAIN AT SOME POINT CANNOT BE RULED OUT. THE AREA IS NOT IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...BUT MUCH OF SOUTHEASTERN OHIO IS IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER DURING THE WEDNESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT TIME FRAME.
