AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MORRISTOWN TN 320 PM EDT TUE JUN 8 2004 .SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY)...THE UPPER LEVEL LOW THAT WAS CENTERED JUST TO THE SOUTH OF MURPHY NC THIS MORNING HAS MOVED LITTLE TODAY AND IS EXPECTED TO MOVE ONLY SLOWLY TO THE SE OVERNIGHT. AS A RESULT...WE WILL LIKELY SEE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...MAINLY ACROSS THE MOUNTAINOUS LOCATIONS. THE BEST LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL REMAIN ALONG THE MOUNTAIN RIDGES THROUGH THE SHORT TERM. FOR TOMORROW...CONCERN IS FOR WHERE TO PAINT POPS. THE ETA MODEL APPEARS TO BE THE MODEL OF CHOICE AFTER CONSULTATION WITH SURROUNDING OFFICES. HOWEVER...THE ETA MODEL IS DRYING THE FA OUT QUITE A BIT AND HAVE DECIDED TO GO WITH CHANCE POPS DUE TO THE CONTINUED LIFT IN THE REGION AND POSSIBILITY OF AFTERNOON CONVECTION. WITH LITTLE UPPER-LEVEL WINDS...WILL NEED TO MONITOR SOME LOCATIONS THAT MAY HAVE SMALL SCALE FLOODING CONCERNS OVER THE NORTHERN SECTIONS OF THE CWA. DO NOT ANTICIPATE A LARGE FLOOD THREAT...THOUGH IF ONE OF THESE STORMS DOES MANAGE TO SIT OVER ONE LOCATION...AS THEY HAVE DONE TODAY....WE COULD EXPERIENCE LOCALIZED PROBLEMS. TEMPERATURES FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS WERE TRENDED TOWARD MAV GUIDANCE...BASED ON PERSISTENCE...WITH LITTLE CHANGE EXPECTED THROUGH TOMORROW. PATCHY FOG WILL ALSO BE A CONCERN IN THE NORMALLY FOG PRONE AREAS. MAX TEMPS TOMORROW LOOK TO FALL RIGHT IN LINE WITH MAV GUIDANCE ONCE AGAIN AS RUNS FROM MET AND FWC ALL ARE WARMING UP THE ENTIRE CWA WAY TO MUCH CONSIDERING THE AMOUNT OF CLOUDS EXPECTED TO LINGER TOMORROW. .LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)...UPPER LEVEL LOW STILL APPARENT OVER NC/SC WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY WITH MORE SHORTWAVES MOVING EAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. GFS MODEL SHOWS A MUCH STRONGER SHORTWAVE MOVING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND EARLY THURSDAY. PREFER THE ETA WHICH IS MUCH WEAKER MOVING A SHORTWAVE THROUGH THURSDAY. A WEAK FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH INTO THE OHIO VALLEY WITH THE EASTERN EDGE NEAR SW VA COUNTIES BY EARLY FRIDAY AND LINGER THEIR MOST OF THE WEEKEND. THIS SHOULD AID IN CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT AND CLOUD COVER. TEMPERATURES WILL BE A LITTLE COOLER DURING THE DAY DUE TO CLOUDS AND A SLIGHTLY BETTER CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HAVE KEPT RAIN CHANCES AT 30 TO 50 PERCENT THROUGH SUNDAY WITH HIGHEST CHANCES NORTHEAST NEAR THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. .EXTENDED TERM...(SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)...PERIOD STARTS OFF WITH A WARM FRONT PROGGED JUST TO THE NORTH OF THE VIRGINIA BORDER. THIS FRONT SHOULD PROVIDE FOR A FOCUS FOR AFTERNOON CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY WITH THE WARM HUMID AIRMASS IN PLACE. THIS FAR OUT THOUGH...MOS POPS TEND TO BE A LITTLE TOO HIGH AND HAVE CUT THOSE BACK TO GO 40 POPS UP NORTH FOR MONDAY AND 30S DOWN IN THE SOUTH. BY TUESDAY MORNING...HPC AND THE MODELS ADVERTISE AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT SWINGING THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA. WILL ACCEPT THE ONCOMING FRONT BUT WILL GO SLIGHTLY SLOWER THAN THE HPC DEPICTION AND MOVE THE FRONT THROUGH THE REGION TUESDAY AFTERNOON BY 18Z. AT THIS TIME WILL ONLY INCREASE POPS TO 40 AREA WIDE AND THEN TAPER THEM DOWN BY WEDNESDAY MORNING FROM WEST TO EAST. BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON MOST OF THE AREA WILL BECOMING CLEAR AND A LITTLE COOLER AND DRIER. THANKS TO SURROUNDING OFFICES FOR THE CHAT THIS MORNING. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
