Area forecast discussion, Jun 28, 2:30 PM EST, 5 hours 45 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MORRISTOWN TN 330 PM EDT TUE JUN 28 2005 .SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)...CURRENT SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A BERMUDA HIGH DOMINATING THE FORECAST AREA WITH A VERY HUMID AND TROPICAL AIRMASS ACROSS THE REGION. SO FAR... CONVECTION TODAY HAS NOT BEEN AS EXTENSIVE AS YESTERDAY WHICH IS LIKELY DUE TO THE STABILIZING EFFECT OF THE EARLIER CONVECTION THIS MORNING. THINK THAT ADDITIONAL CONVECTION WILL DEVELOP LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WITH THE UNSTABLE AND VERY MOIST AIRMASS IN PLACE. IN FACT...THINK CONVECTION COULD DEVELOP AT ANY TIME FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...ALTHOUGH THE BEST COVERAGE WILL CONTINUE TO BE DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. MODELS INDICATE THAT A COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY APPROACH THE AREA BY THURSDAY NIGHT...ALTHOUGH THINK THAT THE MODELS MAY BE TOO AGGRESSIVE WITH ITS SOUTHWARD PROGRESSION SINCE THE UPPER DYNAMICS ARE NOT PROGGED TO BE TOO STRONG. WILL PLAN TO TREND THE FORECAST TOWARDS PERSISTENCE...SINCE THE LOCAL AIRMASS WILL REMAIN VIRTUALLY UNCHANGED UNTIL THE FRONTAL PASSAGE ON FRIDAY. .LONG TERM...(FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY)...MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT ABOUT BRINGING COLD FRONT SLOWLY THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA FRIDAY TO JUST SOUTH OF TN SATURDAY BEFORE IT WASHES OUT. INSTABILITY INCREASES AND WITH THE FRONT IN THE VICINITY SOME STRONG STORMS ARE POSSIBLE FRIDAY. SPC HAS PART OF THE FORECAST AREA IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR DAY 3. DRIER AIR IS EXPECTED TO FILTER IN AS HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE OHIO VALLEY SINKS SOUTH. LOWS SHOULD DROP A FEW DEGREES INTO THE UPPER 50S NORTH AND LOWER TO MID 60S SOUTH FOR A COUPLE OF NIGHTS. AS MOISTURE LIFTS NORTH SUNDAY WILL INTRODUCE SLIGHT CHANCE RAIN AGAIN. BERMUDA HIGH STRENGTHENS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK OFF THE EAST COAST WHICH BRINGS MORE HUMID AIR AND CONTINUED CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AND SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS THROUGH THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
