NWS Paducah, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 14, 2:40 AM CST, 10 hours 46 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY 340 AM CDT FRI JUL 14 2006 .DISCUSSION... MAIN CONCERNS FOR THIS FORECAST ARE POPS TODAY AND THEN TEMPERATURES/HEAT INDICES FOR THE WEEKEND AND BEYOND. A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX THAT MOVED SOUTHEAST THROUGH MUCH OF NORTHERN MISSOURI YESTERDAY EVENING HAS MOSTLY DIED OUT EARLY THIS MORNING AS IT APPROACHED THE QUAD STATE. A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED NEAR THE REMNANT OUTFLOW BOUNDARY IN AREAS GENERALLY WEST OF A CARBONDALE TO MT VERNON ILLINOIS LINE. OTHERWISE...SATELLITE INDICATES RAPID CLEARING OF CONVECTIVE DEBRIS OVER EASTERN MISSOURI AND WESTERN ILLINOIS. A SECOND CONVECTIVE COMPLEX IS DIVING SOUTHWARD INTO 30-40KT LOW LEVEL JET OVER SOUTHEAST KANSAS. WOULD EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE SOUTH AND NOT EFFECT THE QUAD STATE THIS MORNING. PROFILER DATA INDICATE A MID-LEVEL DISTURBANCE ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI IN THE WAKE OF THE DEAD MCS...AND ANOTHER ONE OVER CENTRAL/EASTERN KANSAS. ALTHOUGH NEITHER THE 00Z GFS NOR THE NAM HAD A GOOD HANDLE ON THE EARLIER CONVECTION OVER MISSOURI...THEY BOTH BRING MID-LEVEL DISTURBANCES EAST SOUTHEAST THROUGH MUCH OF THE AREA TODAY. GIVEN THE CLEARING TREND UPSTREAM...THERE SHOULD BE PLENTY OF INSOLATION ACROSS THE AREA. THIS COUPLED WITH THE PLENTIFUL LOW LEVEL MOISTURE OVER THE REGION...SHOULD CREATE GOOD INSTABILITY THIS AFTERNOON...ALONG WITH HEAT INDICES IN THE 100 TO 105 DEGREE RANGE. THEREFORE...WOULD EXPECT TO SEE GOOD COVERAGE OF CONVECTION TODAY...WITH BEST COVERAGE NORTH NEAREST THE MID-LEVEL DISTURBANCE. WILL POST LIKELIES NORTH WITH CHANCES SOUTH...AND LEAST CHANCES IN WESTERN PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST MISSOURI. WILL KEEP CHANCE POPS IN MAINLY FOR THIS EVENING...AS THE ACTIVITY MOVES OUT OF THE AREA TO THE SOUTHEAST. MID-LEVEL WINDS MAY CRANK UP TO 30-35KTS THIS AFTERNOON IN THE NORTH...SO THERE WILL BE SOME POTENTIAL FOR STORM ORGANIZATION UP THERE...WITH A MINOR THREAT OF DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL. FURTHER SOUTH INSTABILITY MAY LEAD TO A FEW BRIEF...PULSY SEVERE STORMS...WITH HAIL AND WIND THREATS. PRECIPITABLE WATERS IN THE GFS ARE FORECAST AT 2+ INCHES FOR THIS AFTERNOON...SO LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE A PROBLEM AGAIN TODAY AS WELL. THE 00Z GFS CONTINUES THE TREND OF PUSHING TODAYS SYSTEM THROUGH THE REGION BY 12Z SATURDAY...AND BUILDING THE UPPER RIDGE INTO THE AREA FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. THIS WILL LEAD TO A PROLONGED PERIOD OF HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. AS THE UPPER RIDGE BUILDS...MID-LEVEL TEMPERATURES WILL WARM FIRST...BUT THERE WILL BE LITTLE WARMING IN THE LOW LEVELS. THE GFS WOULD INDICATE TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 90S EAST TO MIDDLE 90S WEST FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...WITH THE WARMEST DAY ON TUESDAY...WHEN MIDDLE AND UPPER 90S MAY OCCUR. THE PROBLEM IS IN HOW FAST WE WILL MIX OUT THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. SUSPECT THAT AFTERNOON DEWPOINTS WILL BE IN THE MIDDLE 70S TODAY AND SATURDAY...BUT AS THE PRECIPITATION SHUTS OFF...THESE READINGS SHOULD COME DOWN TO NEAR 70 FOR SUNDAY AND BEYOND. THIS IS HANDLED WELL BY THE 00Z MAV GUIDANCE...SO RAN WITH IT FOR THE GRIDDED DEWPOINT FORECASTS. THIS LEADS TO HEAT INDICES IN THE 100-105 DEGREE RANGE MOST AREAS TODAY AND SATURDAY...AND AGAIN THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. WILL CONTINUE TO RUN A HEADLINE FOR HEAT INDICES...BUT FORECAST LEVELS DO NOT SUPPORT ISSUANCE OF AN ADVISORY AT THIS TIME. AS FOR SHORT TERM TEMPERATURES...GENERALLY STAYED WITHIN RANGE OF AVAILABLE GUIDANCE FOR LOWS...BUT UNDERCUT CONSENSUS GUIDANCE A FEW DEGREES FOR HIGHS SATURDAY INTO MONDAY...AS THE LOW LEVEL TEMPERATURE FORECAST IN THE GFS DOES NOT SUPPORT THE GUIDANCE LEVELS. THIS IS FURTHER SUPPORTED BY THE FACT THAT THE HIGHS THE LAST SEVERAL DAYS AT KPAH HAVE BEEN CONSISTENTLY A FEW DEGREES BELOW GUIDANCE. && .PAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KY...NONE. MO...NONE.
