ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS DEVELOPED THIS AFTERNOON...MAINLY SOUTH OF A LINE FROM CYNTHIANA TO MORGANTOWN. THIS REGION LOOKS TO BE WITHIN A REGION OF HIGHER DEWPOINTS...MAINLY LOWER TO MID 60S...WITH VALUES NEAR OR BELOW 60 JUST TO THE NORTH AND WEST AND THE SHOWERS/STORMS BEING SPURRED ALONG BY THE HEATING OF THE DAY AND THE VORT MOVING JUST EAST OF NASHVILLE THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS TENNESSEE. MUCH DRIER AIR ALONG AND NORTH OF THE OHIO RIVER...VERY LITTLE CU HAS DEVELOPED IN THIS REGION. MSAS VALUES SHOW SOLID INSTABILITY HAS DEVELOPED OVER THE REGION...WITH MUCH OF THE REGION AROUND -2 TO -4. HIGHS TODAY LOOK TO TOP OUT AROUND THE MID 80S. DECENT SHORT RANGE MODEL AGREEMENT...WILL USE 09Z SREF AS THE BASIS FOR THE SHORT TERM FORECAST. HAS CONSISTENT LOOK THE LAST TWO DAYS. TEMPS TONIGHT SHOULD BE SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN LAST NIGHTS WITH INCREASED LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND SOME MORE CLOUDS...MAINLY CIRRUS...THAN THE LAST FEW NIGHTS...WILL LEAN TOWARDS THE METMOS NUMBERS...AND A BLEND OF THE MAVMOS AND METMOS FOR HIGHS SUNDAY. WEAK SFC HIGH STILL JUST EAST OF THE REGION...VERY LITTLE PRESSURE GRADIENT AND LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS WILL CONTINUE THRU THE NIGHT...AS A FRONT REMAIN WELL TO THE NORTH AND AN DEVELOPING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS. CLOUD COVERAGE WILL DISSIPATE AFTER SUNSET...AS WELL AS THE SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. THOUGH A FEW SHOWERS MAY DEVELOP LATE OVERNIGHT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE REGION AS HAVE OCCURRED THE LAST FEW NIGHTS/EARLY MORNINGS...AS A WEAK VORT MOVES THRU THE TN VALLEY. PATCHY FOG MAY DEVELOP AGAIN TONIGHT...BUT CIRRUS MAY LIMIT RAD COOLING KEEPING VSBYS FROM BECOMING MUCH LESS THAN 1 MILE. LOW CROSSES THE PLAINS AND STARTS TO ENTER THE MS VALLEY BY THE END OF SUNDAY AFTERNOON...INCREASED SW FLOW AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM BRINGING DEEPER MOISTURE ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY. PWATS CLIMB FROM AROUND 1.0 TO 1.5 BY THE EARLY AFTERNOON ALLOWING FOR SOME MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL IN ANY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THAT CAN DEVELOP.

SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY... THE GFS IS THE ODD MODEL OUT FOR THIS FORECAST PERIOD. THE NAM AND NGM MODELS KEEP AN ELONGATED TROUGH FROM THE GREAT LAKES INTO THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WHILE THE GFS REALLY SHARPENS UP THE TROUGH AND BRINGS IT TOWARD THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY. REGARDLESS... THE END RESULT FOR CENTRAL KENTUCKY AND SOUTH CENTRAL INDIANA WILL BE SIMILAR. A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL LIFT INTO CENTRAL ILLINOIS AND INDIANA. THIS WILL PRODUCE A WARM SOUTHERLY FLOW ACROSS THE REGION WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE MAIN DIFFERENCE WOULD OCCUR LATE TUESDAY. IF THE GFS IS CORRECT A COOL FRONT WILL BE APPROACHING THE REGION WHILE THE NGM KEEPS US IN THE WARM SECTOR WITH A SLUG OF MOISTURE HEADING INTO THE REGION. WITH THE UNCERTAINTY WE WILL KEEP POPS IN THE HIGH CHANCE CATEGORY LATE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. WE WILL FOLLOW A BLEND OF THE GFS AND MAV GUIDANCE FOR THIS FORECAST. WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.... LONG RANGE GFS ENSEMBLE AND CANADIAN MODELS CONTINUE TO DIFFER WITH THE ECMWF ON THE EVOLUTION OF A DEEP TROUGH AND CUT OFF LOW DROPPING THROUGH THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD. WE WILL CONTINUE ALONG WITH PREVIOUS AND FOLLOW THE GFS. AT THE SURFACE AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER LAKE MICHIGAN WEDNESDAY MORNING WILL TRAVEL NORTHEAST INTO SOUTHERN CANADA BY SATURDAY. A COOL FRONT WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE REGION WEDNESDAY WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE. COOL HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN BEHIND THE COOL FRONT AND PROVIDE SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES INTO THE WEEKEND. --JA && .LMK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KY...NONE. IN...NONE. &&
