NWS Jackson, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Mar 27, 11:50 PM EST, 4 hours 10 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON KY 1150 PM EST SUN MAR 27 2005 .DISCUSSION... UPDATED TO FRESHEN UP THE WORDING FOR THE FLOOD WATCH. REST OF THE FORECAST IS ON TRACK. SEE DISCUSSIONS BELOW. && .PREV DISCUSSION... 1045 PM EST SUN MAR 27 2005 UPDATED MAINLY TO REMOVE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH AS GENERAL RISK FOR LARGER HAIL IS DECREASING WITH TIME. STILL ASSESSING HEAVY RAINFALL THREAT AND WATCH...HOWEVER AT THIS POINT AM INCLINED TO LEAVE THE WATCH AS IS. GENERAL CONSENSUS OF KEEPING THE MAJORITY OF THE HEAVIEST RAIN OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST PORTION OF THE CWA CONTINUES TO BE THE TREND. THIS MATCHES UP WITH THE CURRENT WATCH ALREADY IN EFFECT. WILL ONLY FRESHEN UP THE WATCH WORDING BEFORE MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. 913 PM EST SUN MAR 27 2005 .DISCUSSION... THE AREA IS CURRENTLY UNDER A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR ALL BUT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE CWA. THUNDERSTORMS CAME ROLLING INTO THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE AREA ABOUT 6 PM EST TONIGHT. THERE WERE TWO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING ISSUED FOR WAYNE COUNTY AND ONE FOR MCCREARY...AND BELL COUNTIES. RADAR INDICATED SIGNIFICANT HAIL POTENTIAL WITH THESE STORMS WITH ELEVATED CORES OF 50 TO 55 DBS AND VILS WERE RUNNING ABOUT 30 TO 35. NO SEVERE WEATHER REPORTS HAVE COME IN YET...HOWEVER WE ARE ACTIVELY TRYING TO GET SOME. THE SEVERE POTENTIAL HAS REALLY FALLEN OFF THE LAST HOUR AND WILL MOST LIKELY CONTINUE TO DO SO AS THE EVENING GOES ON. THE MOST ACTIVE AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS WERE TO THE WEST OF THE JACKSON CWA AND THESE SHOULD BE MOVING INTO THE AREA AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES TO THE EAST-NORTHEAST. THEY MAY BE A LULL IN PRECIPITATION FOR A FEW HOURS BEFORE THE PRECIPITATION MOVES IN FROM THE WEST. THE FORECAST WAS UPDATED FOR THE WATCHES AND TO INCREASE THE POPS FOR TONIGHT. THE REST OF THE FORECAST IS ON TRACK. 540 PM EST SUN MAR 27 2005 FOR THE PERIOD TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY... STILL NOT GOOD AGREEMENT IN THE DETAILS OF THE MODELS FOR THE MOST IMPORTANT ELEMENTS OF OUR FORECAST...1ST AND 2ND PERIOD RAINFALL. ALTHOUGH...THEY ARE DOING BETTER OVERALL THAN IN RECENT DAYS. THE ETA HAS ITS AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAINFALL OVER THE NORTHERN AND WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA...WHILE THE GFS IS NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. THE 12Z RUN OF THE ETA SEEMS TO BE VERIFYING BETTER IN ITS FIRST 12 HOURS TODAY THAN THE 12Z GFS IS. THIS DESPITE THE FACT THE THE AVAILABLE RUNS OF THE ECMWF AND UKMET SUPPORTED THE GFS MORE THAN THE ETA. HOWEVER...IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE OLD NGM DID RESEMBLE THE ETA. BECAUSE OF GROUND TRUTH TODAY...HAVE DECIDED TO GIVE THE ETA MUCH MORE CREDENCE FOR THE PRECIP AMOUNTS TONIGHT AND MONDAY MORNING. HAVE EXPANDED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO INCLUDE A LITTLE BETTER THAN THE NORTHWESTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA. WOULD NOT RULE OUT SOME MARGINALLY SEVERE STORMS THIS EVENING DUE TO LARGELY ELEVATED CONVECTION AS STORMS IN TN DEVELOP NORTHWARD. THREAT WOULD BE PRIMARILY HAIL. SHOWERS/RAIN IN WRAP-AROUND AREA OF STORM SYSTEM WILL WIND DOWN ON MONDAY...AND CLOUDS DECREASE LATE MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. FAIR WEATHER THEN LAST THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. ON WEDNESDAY THE NEXT COLD FRONT APPROACHES AND WOULD NOT RULE OUT A SHOWER OR STORM IN OUR N AND W COUNTIES IN THE WARM AIR ADVECTION. FOR TEMPS...THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ITEM IS A RIDGE/VALLEY TEMP SPLIT PUT IN ON TUESDAY NIGHT...WITH THE WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN AND LACK OF THICK OVERCAST BEING FAVORABLE FOR IT. FOR THE PERIOD WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY... GENERALLY FOLLOWED A BLEND OF THE ECMWF AND CANADIAN EARLY IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD. ON THURSDAY...ECMWF AND CANADIAN LIFT INITIAL SHORTWAVE AROUND CANADIAN UPPER LOW INTO THE GREAT LAKES WHILE THE GFS KEEPS ONE DEEPER TROF ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. WITH SFC FRONT SOMEWHERE IN THE VICINITY OF THE AREA...WILL INCREASE PRECIP CHANCES THUR. THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF UNCERTAINTY WHEN UPPER TROF PASSES THROUGH EASTERN KENTUCKY...WITH ECMWF MUCH SLOWER THAN CANADIAN/GFS. WITH THE TREND OF THE ECMWF BEING FASTER WILL LEAN TOWARD CANADIAN/GFS SOLUTION OF ENDING PRECIP SATURDAY. ALSO WITH THIS FASTER TREND...WILL LOWER HIGHS A FEW DEGREES FRIDAY AND SATURDAY BEHIND SFC FRONT. 1140 AM EST SUN MAR 27 2005 UPDATED THE FORECAST FOR A NUMBER OF SMALL CHANGES. LOOKS LIKE WE WILL HAVE A LARGE TEMP CONTRAST THIS AFTERNOON. THINK THAT OUR NORTHWEST COUNTIES WILL STRUGGLE TO WARM UP UNDER CLOUDS AND WHAT MAY BE PERSISTENT PRECIP. HAVE ALLOWED FOR READINGS ONLY IN THE MID 50S...AND HOPE THAT THIS IS STILL NOT TOO GENEROUS. NOT REAL KEEN ON THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING WITH THE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION OF OUR SOUTHERN COUNTIES. LOOKS LIKE INSTABILITY OVER MUCH OF THE AREA COULD HAVE A TENDENCY TO BE ELEVATED. HAVE CUT BACK ON THE THUNDERSTORM WORDING NORTH OF JKL. HAVE ALSO TRIMMED WINDS A BIT FOR THIS AFTERNOON...WITH SPEEDS OF 5 TO 10 MPH OR AROUND 10 MPH. 500 AM EST SUN MAR 27 2005 09Z SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS STRONG LOW PRESSURE CONSOLIDATING OVER THE DEEP SOUTH WITH A WARM FRONT SWOOPING NORTH INTO SOUTHERN KENTUCKY. THE BULK OF THE RAIN ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOW IS FOUND WELL TO THE SOUTH ACROSS ALABAMA AND GEORGIA IN THE FORM OF ORGANIZED THUNDERSTORMS. SOME LIGHT SHOWERS ARE BRUSHING OUR WESTERN COUNTIES AS THE WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH BUT THE CONVECTION TO THE SOUTH APPEARS TO BE SHIELDING US FROM MORE SIGNIFICANT RAIN ATTM. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE FOUND OVER WESTERN KENTUCKY AHEAD. THESE ARE MOVING EAST AS THEY RUN OUT AHEAD OF A LEAD SHORTWAVE THAT WILL SPREAD THEM INTO EAST KENTUCKY ALONG THE WARM FRONT LATER THIS MORNING. THE MODELS HAVE COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH THEIR HANDLING OF THE UNSEASONABLY DEEP AND FAR SOUTH CLOSED LOW THAT WILL ROLL EAST NORTHEAST THROUGH THE TENNESSEE VALLEY. THE GFS HAS BOUNCED BACK TO AN EARLIER SOLUTION AND NOW MATCHES UP WELL WITH THE NAM THROUGH 36 HOURS. THERE ARE MORE SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES WITH THIS KEY FEATURE LATER IN THE PERIOD WHERE THE STRONGER AND MORE SOUTHERN TRACK OF THE LOW IS PREFERRED...BUT THE NET RESULT FOR KENTUCKY WILL BE NEGLIGIBLE AS THE LOW WILL BE TO THE EAST OF US BY MIDDAY MONDAY. FOR FORECAST AND QPF SPECIFICS HAVE FAVORED THE HIGHER RESOLUTION AND MORE FREQUENT TIME STEPS OF THE NAM...SPECIFICALLY THE ETA12. RIDGING IN THE WAKE OF THIS TROUGH THEN TAKES HOLD AND BRINGS THE WARMEST WEATHER YET...OF THIS YOUNG SEASON. TOWARD THE END OF THE WORK WEEK ANOTHER DEEP TROUGH WILL PUNCH THROUGH THE MIDWEST AND ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY...BRINGING WITH IT MORE ACTIVE WEATHER. SENSIBLE WEATHER WILL FEATURE A VERY ACTIVE 24 TO 36 HOUR PERIOD AS THIS POTENT SPRING STORM SYSTEM WASHES OVER EAST KENTUCKY. THE INITIAL BAND OF WAA AND OVERRUNNING PRECIPITATION WILL LIFT NORTH THROUGH MOST OF EAST KENTUCKY THIS MORNING WITH A SIGNIFICANT DRY SLOT DEVELOPING IN THE AFTERNOON. STRONG SFC HEATING WILL CAPITALIZE ON STRONG DYNAMICS...PROVIDED BY A STRONG JET STREAK COMING AROUND THE BASE OF THE TROUGH AND DIFFLUENCE ALOFT...AND HIGH PWS TO REDEVELOP THUNDERSTORMS. THESE WILL HAVE A GOOD CHANCE OF BECOMING ORGANIZED AND/OR SEVERE DUE TO FAVORABLE VENTING ALOFT...SOME CAPE...WINDS VEERING WITH HEIGHT...LOW WET BULB ZERO VALUES...AND MODERATE HELICITY. IN FACT...WITH THE WIND PROFILE AND DYNAMICS AN ISOLATED SPIN UP OF A TORNADO CAN NOT BE RULED OUT. THE BEST CHANCES FOR ANY SEVERE ACTIVITY WILL BE ACROSS FAR SOUTHEAST KENTUCKY AND DEPEND ON THE EXACT TRACK OF THE SFC LOW. HAVE HIGHLIGHTED THE POSSIBILITY SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS IN THE ZONES AND GRIDS FOR THIS. WILL ALSO ADDRESS THIS IN THE PRODUCT SDFHWOJKL TO BE ISSUED LATER THIS MORNING. THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING BEFORE SETTLING DOWN SOMEWHAT TOWARD MIDNIGHT. THE OTHER THREAT FROM THIS SYSTEM WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY AND EXCESSIVE RAINFALL. WHILE THE STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WILL CERTAINLY CONTAIN BRIEF HEAVY RAIN...THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE JUST NORTH OF THE LOW TRACK IN THE DEFORMATION ZONE. THIS WILL BE WHERE MODERATE TO OCCASIONALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL CONTINUE FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD TONIGHT AND INTO MONDAY MORNING AS THE SFC LOW SLOWLY PASSES. HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THIS AREA WITH AN ANTICIPATED WIDESPREAD AREA OF 1 TO 2 INCH RAINS WITH SOME LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS...ESPECIALLY WHERE ANY THUNDERSTORM TRACKS WOULD HAPPEN TO INTERSECT WITH THE DEFORMATION ZONE AS IT SLOWLY EXITS KENTUCKY. THE AREA THAT SHOULD SEE THE HEAVIEST RAINS WILL BE LOCATED ALONG AND NORTH OF THE MOUNTAIN PARKWAY WITH THE HEAVIEST RAIN FALLING FROM MIDNIGHT UNTIL 8 AM EST. THE RAIN WILL SLOWLY COME TO AN END FROM WEST TO EAST DURING THE DAY MONDAY...WITH JUST A FEW SHOWERS LINGERING IN THE FAR EAST BY MONDAY EVENING. THE REST OF THE FORECAST PERIOD WILL FEATURE WARM AND DRY WEATHER UNDER A BROAD RIDGE THAT FOLLOWS IN THE WAKE OF THE UPPER LOW. TOWARD THE END OF THE WORK WEEK ANOTHER DEVELOPING SFC LOW WILL THREATEN TO RETURN ACTIVE WEATHER BACK TO KENTUCKY...POSSIBLY LASTING INTO THE WEEKEND...BUT LIKELY NOT AS STRONG AS WHAT WE ARE FACING FOR TODAY AND TONIGHT. MOS GUIDANCE FOR TEMPERATURES SHOW JUST A MINOR DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE MET AND MAV TODAY. THE MET CERTAINLY HAS BEEN DOING BETTER THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS. TODAY WILL BE MORE COMPLICATED WITH THE WARMER MET PREFERRED IN THE SOUTH AND A COOL BLEND FAVORED TO THE NORTH WITH THE DEVELOPING DEFORMATION ZONE. DID NOT STRAY FAR FROM SIMILAR VALUES TONIGHT. FOR MONDAY WARMED UP THE WEST QUICKEST AS THE LOW CLOUDS AND RAIN DEPART THERE EARLIEST...AGAIN A MOS BLEND LOOKED FINE. MONDAY NIGHT WENT A TAD COOLER THAN THE GUIDANCE AND OPENED UP A LARGER SPLIT FOR THE SHELTERED VALLEYS IN THE GRIDS. PREFERRED THE WARMEST MET NUMBERS ON TUESDAY. POPS ARE SIMILAR THROUGH THE NEXT 36 HOURS AND THESE GENERALLY LINED UP WITH MY GRIDS. FOR MONDAY NIGHT BROUGHT THEM DOWN QUICKER THAN THE MAV...SIMILAR TO THE MET. WITH THE GRIDS...USED MY USUAL POPULATION PROCEDURE FROM THE ETA12 FOR TEMPS...DEWPOINTS AND WINDS THROUGH 84 HOURS. AGAIN ENDED UP PREFERRING TO NUDGE THE OFFICIAL GRIDS TOWARD THE LATEST ETA12 SFC TEMPS AND ADJUST FOR CCF AND VALLEY...MONDAY NIGHT...SPECIFICS. ONLY HAD TO MAKE SOME MINOR DIURNAL ADJUSTMENTS TO THE WIND SPEEDS FROM THE ETA12. THE REST OF THE GRIDS WERE IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE AND JUST SHIFTED THEM SLIGHTLY IN LINE WITH THE LATEST NAM GUIDANCE. FOLLOWED QPF FROM HPC PRETTY CLOSE TONIGHT AND MONDAY. && .JKL WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR KY ZONES...
