NWS Jackson, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Mar 12, 5:04 AM EST, 4 hours 27 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON KY 504 AM EST SUN MAR 12 2006 .DISCUSSION... 09Z SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHWEST OHIO VALLEY WHILE DEEPER LOW PRESSURE IS DEVELOPING OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. A WARM FRONT EXTENDS FROM THIS SOUTHERN LOW AND ARCS THROUGH EAST KENTUCKY...RUNNING FROM JUST NORTH OF LEX TO JKL. SOUTH OF THIS LINE...TEMPS HAVE RISEN INTO THE MIDDLE 60S WITH DEWPOINTS REACHING THE LOWER 50S. TO THE NORTHEAST...READINGS ARE IN THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 50S WITH DEWPOINTS STILL IN THE 40S. THE JKL RADAR SHOWS A CLEAN CWA ATTM...THOUGH THE HIGHER RETURNS ARE SHOWING UP WELL TO THE NORTHWEST WITH THE STORMS ON GOING OVER SOUTHERN INDIANA AND SOUTHWEST OHIO. ON SATELLITE...BLOW OFF FROM THESE STORMS HAVE SPREAD EAST OVER THE CWA WHILE THE RETURN FLOW OF MOISTURE IS HELPING TO GENERATE LOW AND MID LEVEL CLOUDS CREEPING NORTH FROM TENNESSEE AND DEVELOPING IN PLACE OVER THE CUMBERLAND VALLEY. THE GFS AND NAM HAVE COME INTO MUCH BETTER AGREEMENT WITH THE MAIN UPPER AIR FEATURES TO AFFECT THE OHIO VALLEY THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING. THE SOUTHEAST AND GULF OF MEXICO RIDGE WILL FLATTEN A BIT BY MONDAY MORNING IN RESPONSE TO A BROAD...BUT DEEPENING TROUGH THAT ROLLS OUT OF THE HIGH PLAINS AND INTO THE WESTERN LAKES BY MONDAY EVENING. THE NAM HAS BEEN TRENDING STRONGER AND MORE CLOSED OFF WITH THIS TROUGH THAN THE GFS AND SEEMS TO HAVE THE RIGHT IDEA. THIS HAS DONE WONDERS WITH THE FORECASTED SFC PATTERN FROM THE NAM AND COME INTO VERY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THAT OF THE GFS. LATER IN THE PERIOD...SOME DIFFERENCES EMERGE OVER KENTUCKY BY 72 HOURS WITH THE GFS DEPICTING A DEEPER TROUGH EXTENDED THROUGH THE STATE...WEDNESDAY MORNING...WHILE THE PATTERN OVER THE NORTHWEST PART OF THE COUNTRY EXHIBITS MUCH MORE DISARRAY. HOWEVER...EITHER SCENARIO PAINTS A SIMILAR PICTURE FOR SENSIBLE WEATHER MID WEEK AS MORE SEASONABLE CONDITIONS RETURN FOR AT LEAST A SHORT VISIT. SENSIBLE WEATHER WILL FEATURE THE WARM FRONT LIFTING NORTH THROUGH EAST KENTUCKY EARLY THIS MORNING AS THE CLUSTERS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SLIDE EAST ALONG AND JUST SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER DURING THE DAY. THIS WILL PLACE THE EXTREME NORTHERN PART OF THE CWA UNDER THE GUN FOR THE BEST CHANCE OF SEVERE WEATHER AND EXCESSIVE RAINS. ADDITIONAL STORMS ARE POSSIBLE FURTHER SOUTH AS THE MCS ACTIVITY KICKS OUT SOUTHWARD MOVING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES ABLE TO INITIATE FURTHER ACTIVITY. THE BULK OF THE CONVECTION MOVES NORTHEAST AND OUT OF THE AREA THIS EVENING WITH KENTUCKY IN THE SOMEWHAT CAPPED WARM SECTOR OF A DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE AREA COMING OUT OF THE PLAINS. ANOTHER ROUND OF STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER WESTERN KENTUCKY AFTER MIDNIGHT AND MOVE EAST DURING THE PRE DAWN HOURS BEFORE OUT RUNNING THEIR SUPPORT. AS SUCH...EXPECT THIS WEAKENING SQUALL LINE TO REACH EAST KENTUCKY AROUND DAWN BEFORE DISSIPATING AS IT DRIFTS OVER THE CWA. BY MID AFTERNOON THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT AND UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS WILL LIKELY GENERATE ANOTHER SQUALL LINE OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CROSSING THIS PART OF THE STATE BY MID EVENING. THE COLD FONT PRESSES SOUTH DURING THE FIRST PART OF THE NIGHT ENDING THE PCPN FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST AS THE BREEZY WINDS SWITCH TO THE WEST AND COLDER AIR POURS INTO THE AREA. FOR TUESDAY...NORTHWEST FLOW IS EXPECTED TO GENERATE A FEW...MAINLY RAIN...SHOWERS OVER OUR USUAL UPSLOPE LOCATIONS CLOSER TO THE VIRGINIA BORDER. THE MAIN CONCERNS FOR THIS FORECAST WILL BE THE SHORT TERM THREAT OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY ACROSS THE NORTH TODAY...AND THE POSSIBILITY OF EXCESSIVE RAIN OVER LOCATIONS NORTH OF INTERSTATE 64. SMALL TO MODERATE INSTABILITY WILL BE IN PLACE THROUGH MOST OF EAST KENTUCKY TODAY WHILE PWS OF 1.3 INCHES AND HIGHER WILL MAKE THE STORMS VERY EFFICIENT RAINERS. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM CONCERNS WILL CONTINUE FOR THE ENTIRE CWA ON MONDAY AS A DYNAMIC COLD FRONT AND LIKELY SQUALL LINES MOVE INTO THE CWA. MODERATE TO HIGH INSTABILITY WILL BE IN PLACE AHEAD OF THIS BOUNDARY BY MONDAY AFTERNOON. THE MAIN THREAT FROM STORMS TODAY AND MONDAY WILL BE DAMAGING WIND GUSTS BUT LARGE HAIL AND AN ISOLATED TORNADO WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. WILL HIGHLIGHT ALL OF THIS IN THE MORNING HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. MOS TEMPS ARE RELATIVELY CLOSE THROUGH THE PERIOD. DID NOT DEVIATE FAR EXCEPT TO ACCOUNT FOR TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF THE EXPECTED ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. IN GENERAL...WENT COOLER UP NORTH AND WARMER SOUTH FOR HIGHS WHILE TONIGHT WENT WITH MORE OF A RANGE IN THE SOUTHEAST AND READINGS NEAR 60 NORTH AND WEST. FOR LOWS TUESDAY MORNING MAINLY FOLLOWED THE RAW NAM12 MINT GRID. LIKEWISE FOR HIGHS WEDNESDAY...UNDERCUT MOS AND WENT CLOSER TO THE NAM12 GRID. POPS THROUGH MONDAY WILL EXHIBIT A TIGHT NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST GRADIENT AS THE BULK OF THE MCS SPAWNED ACTIVITY STAYS NEAR THE LIFTING WARM FRONT TODAY AND THIS EVENING. MORE SCATTERED AND LESS ORGANIZED CONVECTION WILL BE FOUND TO THE SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY. THE NET RESULT IS TO UNDERCUT THE MET POPS FROM JKL AND SOUTH WHILE STAYING CLOSER TO THEM FURTHER NORTH. THE LOWER MAV POPS MATCHED UP BETTER WITH THE ONES I DREW IN THE GRIDS. MONDAY WILL BE A DIFFERENT STORY WITH HIGH LIKELY POPS FAVORED FOR MOST OF THE CWA AS THE COLD FRONT PRESSES SOUTHEAST PRE ANNOUNCED BY A SQUALL LINE OR TWO. HIGH POPS WILL CONTINUE EARLY MONDAY NIGHT...ESPECIALLY SOUTHEAST...AS THE FRONT PRESSES THROUGH THE REST OF THE CWA. FOR TUESDAY...KEPT A SMALL CHANCE OF A RAIN OR SNOW SHOWER OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF OUR EASTERN COUNTIES DUE TO UPSLOPE AND SOME WRAP AROUND MOISTURE. IN THE IFPS/GFE GRIDS...USED MY USUAL POPULATION PROCEDURES TO CREATE THE DEWPOINT AND WIND GRIDS FROM THE NAM12 THROUGH 84 HOURS. WHILE THE DEWPOINTS CAME IN TOO HIGH INITIALLY...THEY LOOKED REASONABLE BY AFTERNOON AS THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE INCREASES QUICKLY OVER THE AREA. ONLY MADE SLIGHT ADJUSTMENTS THROUGH THE PERIOD. SIMILARLY THE WIND GRIDS FROM THE NAM12 CAME IN PRETTY GOOD...NEEDING ONLY MINOR DIURNAL TYPE ADJUSTMENTS THROUGH 84 HOURS. THE INHERITED GRIDS CONTINUED TO BE IN EXCELLENT SHAPE WITH JUST SOME FINE TUNING MADE TO REFLECT THE GROWING MODEL AND GUIDANCE AGREEMENT ON THE EVENTS OF THE NEXT 48 HOURS. .PREV DISCUSSION... 1011 PM EST SAT MAR 11 2006 DISCUSSION... UPDATED THE FORECAST FOR THE REST OF TONIGHT. THE WARM FRONT IS SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN SOMERSET AND LONDON. AT 10 PM...THE TEMPERATURE AT SOMERSET WAS 68 DEGREES..WHILE THE TEMPERATURE AT LONDON WAS 57. THE FORECAST IS BASED ON A SCENARIO THAT THE WARM FRONT WILL DRIFT NORTHERLY DURING THE EVENING...AND AS SUCH...THE TEMPERATURES WILL EITHER RISE OR REMAIN STEADY. BOTH THE NAM AND GFS HAS SLOWED DOWN THE ARRIVAL OF THE COLD FRONT A LITTLE AND HAVE KEPT IT OVER CENTRAL KENTUCKY TOMORROW AFTERNOON. AS SUCH...THE FORECAST POPS FOR TOMORROW WERE LOWERED. THE AIR OVER EASTERN KENTUCKY REMAINS CONDITIONALLY UNSTABLE AND AS ANY SHOWERS DEVELOP TOMORROW...OR TONIGHT...THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR THUNDER. THE SEVERE POTENTIAL FOR TOMORROW IS STILL A PLAYER...AS THE FORECAST LIFTED INDEX VALUES ARE IN THE MINUS 2 TO MINUS 3 RANGE ON THE NAM. THE MAIN AREA OF INSTABILITY WILL STAY OUT TO THE WEST OF THE FORECAST AREA. 417 PM EST SAT MAR 11 2006 SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THRU MONDAY NIGHT)...SW ATLANTIC/GULF OF MEXICO RIDGE WILL STAY FIRM FOR A FEW MORE DAYS AS VORTS MOVE NE OVER IT/S BACKSIDE. THE JKL CWA IS IN A PRECARIOUS POSITION...ON THE W SIDE OF THE POSITIVE H5 HEIGHT ANOMALY CENTERED ALONG THE E COAST BUT CLOSE TO THE VORTS MOVING BY TO THE NW. A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL WAFFLE OHD OR JUST TO OUR N PRODUCING PERIODIC BOUTS OF SHRA/TSRA FOR E KY THRU MON NIGHT. INITIAL ONGOING CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY SHOULD WANE AND MOVE TO THE NE THIS EVENING. SRLY FLOW NEAR THE SURFACE WILL STRENGTHEN A LITTLE THRU THE NIGHT AND EXPECT SKIES TO BECOME SCT OVER MOST OF THE AREA IN THE DOWNSLOPE FLOW. TOMORROW SHOULD BE MOSTLY DRY HOWEVER THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL EASE SE TOWARD THE AREA LATE IN THE AFTERNOON SO WILL INCREASE POPS LATE IN THE DAY BUT KEEP THE HIGHEST CHCS OVER THE N WHERE FRONT STALLS OUT BEFORE LIFTING BACK N SUN NIGHT. SPC HAS OUTLOOKED THE AREA IN A SLT RISK AS AN MCS SHOULD DEVELOP OVER THE MIDWEST AND MOVE E INTO THE AREA LATE SUN AND SUN NIGHT. WHILE THE SYSTEM SHOULD BE WEAKENING AS ATMOSPHERE IS NOT AS SUPPORTIVE OF SEVERE CONVECTION OVER THE JKL CWA...AN ISOLATED SEVERE STORM CANNOT BE RULED OUT. BY MON A STRONG SURFACE LOW WILL HAVE FORMED OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST AND THE ATTENDANT COLD FRONT WILL PUSH ACROSS E KY LATE ON MON. NO BIG DIFFERENCES SEEN W/ TIMING OR POPS COMPARED TO YESTERDAY/S DATA SO WILL BASICALLY MAINTAIN CURRENT GRIDS...EXCEPT UPPING POPS SLIGHTLY MON EVENING DUE TO INCREASED CERTAINTY OF PCPN. PROGS SHOW A STRONG SRLY LLVL JET IN ADVANCE OF FRONT AND WINDS WILL INCREASE WITH GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 30 MPH PROBABLE MON AFTERNOON. ALSO...THE STRONG LLVL JET ALONG WITH A VERY WARM AND MOIST BL WILL HELP FUEL TSRA IN ADVANCE OF THE FROPA. SPC HAS HIGHLIGHTED THE AREA IN A DAY 3 SLIGHT RISK ON MON AND WILL UPDATE HWO TO HIGHLIGHT THE SLT RISK OF SEVERE. THE OTHER CONCERN IS FOR HYDRO PROBLEMS. MODELS CONTINUE TO PRINT OUT AROUND AN INCH OF QPF OVER OUR NW CORNER AND BELIEVE W/ THE EXPECTED LOCATION OF THE QUASI-STATIONARY SURFACE FRONT...THE GREATEST THREAT FOR FLOODING WILL OCCUR OUTSIDE OF OUR CWA TO THE NW. ANY TRAINING OF CONVECTION WILL HOWEVER HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE LOCAL FLOODING AND THIS THREAT WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED THRU THE PERIOD. TEMP FORECAST FOR TONIGHT IS DIFFICULT DUE TO A BOUNDARY BISECTING THE AREA. TO THE N OF THE BOUNDARY DEWS ARE IN THE 40S AND TO THE S THEY ARE UP NEAR 60. W/ CLEARING SKIES EXPECTED...MIN TEMP FORECAST DEPENDS ON HOW FAR N BOUNDARY GOES. EXPECT VALLEYS TO DECOUPLE OUT E AND FALL TOWARD THE 50 DEGREE MARK W/ RISING TEMPS AND DEWPOINTS LIKELY AFTER MIDNIGHT HERE AS SWRLY FLOW STRENGTHENS AND BOUNDARY SHIFTS NE. ELSEWHERE ALLOWED FOR A SLIGHT RIDGE/VALLEY SPLIT KEEPING RIDGES UP NEAR 60. FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD...MET NUMBERS LOOKED GOOD AND STAYED CLOSE. LONG TERM (TUESDAY THRU SATURDAY)...MON NIGHT AND TUE WILL BE A TRANSITION PERIOD W/ THE ERN CONUS H5 HEIGHT ANOMALY BEING SUPPLANTED TO THE SOUTH OVER MEXICO AS THE CURRENT WRN CONUS L/W TROF GETS KICKED EWARD. NW FLOW BEHIND DEPARTING FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL FUNNEL IN MUCH COOLER AIRMASS FOR TUE ALONG W/ A CHC FOR SOME -SHRA...POSSIBLY MIXED W/ SOME -SHSN IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS AS 1000-850 MB AND 1000- 500 MB THICKNESSES FALL TO A SUFFICIENTLY LOW VALUE TUE AM. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD IN CLEARING SKIES TUE NIGHT THRU WED NIGHT. THE SECOND HALF OF THE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND WILL FEATURE A NEGATIVE ANOMALY OVER THE NE AND W COASTS. THIS SET UP WILL LEAVE E KY IN A PROGRESSIVE WNW FLOW REGIME W/ ONE MAJOR FEATURE TO WORRY ABOUT ON THU AND THU NIGHT...WHICH THE VARIOUS OP MODELS ARE HAVING A HARD TIME WITH. BASED ON HPC GUIDANCE WILL USE A BLEND BETWEEN THE ECMWF AND 00Z GFS FOR TIMING THIS FEATURE...WHICH WILL PLACE THE FROPA IN HERE LATE THU. THIS APPROACH APPEARS TO BE BACKED UP LOOKING AT THE 12Z GFS PANELS WHICH ARE DECIDEDLY STRONGER AND SLOWER. FOR NOW WILL KEEP POPS LOW AND ADJUST UPWARD LATER IF THE STRONGER 12Z GFS SOLUTION CONTINUES IN LATER RUNS. EXT MODELS THEN DIFFER QUITE A BIT W/ REGARD TO HOW FAR TO THE S THE FRONT STALLS FRI AND SAT. FOR NOW WILL KEEP FRI NIGHT AND SAT DRY AND LET LATER SHIFTS IRON OUT THE DETAILS. FOR TEMPS...STAYED COOLER THAN 00Z MEX GUIDANCE NUMBERS TUE AND TUE NIGHT W/ H85 TEMPS WELL BELOW 0C. WED AND THU GUIDANCE NUMBERS LOOKED REASONABLE ALTHOUGH W/ SLOWER FROPA EXPECTED THAN 00Z GFS PORTRAYED...BUMPED UP TEMPS A LITTLE THU AFTERNOON. A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY FRI AND SAT AS MODELS SHOW MORE COLD AIR FLOWING IN BEHIND THU NIGHT FROPA...BUT FOR NOW WILL TEMPER THE COOLING A LITTLE AND SEE HOW FAR S THAT FRONT STALLS AS WE HEAD INTO THE NEW WEEKEND. 1142 AM EST SAT MAR 11 2006 UPDATED THE FORECAST FOR THE TIMING OF PRECIP. SHOWERS AND STORMS ARRIVED SOONER THAN HAD BEEN FORECAST IN OUR NORTHERN COUNTIES. WILL ALSO EXPECT THE PRECIP TO TAPER OFF A BIT SOONER THAN WAS FORECAST...AND HAVE LOWERED POPS A BIT FOR TONIGHT. OF A SECONDARY CONCERN...STILL WAITING FOR DEW POINTS TO CLIMB IN OUR SOUTHEAST COUNTIES. FROM JKL SOUTHEAST THEY ARE IN THE UPPER 30S...WHILE SME WAS AROUND 60. IF WIND SHOULD KICK IN BEFORE THEY COME UP...THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE THAT A FEW PLACES COULD BRIEFLY SEE RED FLAG CONDITIONS. HOWEVER...THINK THE CHANCE IS RATHER SMALL. && .JKL WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE. && GREIF
