AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
248 PM CDT SUN JUL 8 2012

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 248 PM CDT SUN JUL 8 2012

WITH MOST OBS SITES AT THEIR HIGHS AS OF 19Z WILL LET THE
ADVISORY GO TIL EXPIRATION AT 23Z.

THE UPPER HIGH IS NOT QUITE DONE WITH US YET. CONVECTION IS
CONVENIENTLY FORMING MOSTLY OUTSIDE OF THE FORECAST AREA ALL
QUADS...NICE RING OF FIRE. WOULD EXPECT THE CONVECTION IN
SOUTHEAST MISSOURI TO BUILD WEST OF THE AREA IN THE NEXT HOUR OR
TWO. OF GREATER CONCERN IS THE I-64 CORRIDOR WHICH WILL LIKELY SEE
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS MOVING IN OVER THE NEXT 2 HOURS. THIS
ACTIVITY WILL MOVE EAST AND BUILD SLOWLY SOUTH WELL INTO THE
EVENING.

HOWEVER...ONCE THE DIURNAL CONVECTION HAS PLAYED OUT BY LATE
EVENING...CANNOT FIND A COHERENT FORCING MECHANISM TO GENERATE OR
SUSTAIN CONVECTION INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. THE MODELS HAVE
CONSISTENTLY GENERATED QPF IN THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...SO WILL TAPER
50-60 POPS THIS EVENING DOWN TO AROUND 40 AREAWIDE AFTER 06Z JUST
TO BE SAFE.

THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY HAS MADE LITTLE PROGRESS TODAY...AND DO NOT
EXPECT IT TO MAKE IT INTO THE AREA UNTIL NEAR 12Z MONDAY. WENT ON
THE SLOW/WEAK SIDE OF GUIDANCE WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE...AND GUT
FEELING IS THAT THE DRY...COOLER AIRMASS...THAT WE CURRENTLY SEE IN
NORTHERN ILLINOIS...WILL NOT MAKE IT FAR INTO OUR AREA. THIS WILL
LEAD TO SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN EXPECTED TEMPERATURES AND DEWPOINTS
THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...AND BETTER CHANCES OF CONVECTION AT LEAST
IN THE SOUTH MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY.

WOULD EXPECT TO SEE PRIMARILY...DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION MONDAY
WITH BEST CHANCES IN THE SOUTHEAST. EVEN THE GFS IS NOW SLOWING
DOWN THE PRECIPITATION MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY...SO HAVE
INCREASED POPS BOTH PERIODS...WITH THE EMPHASIS STILL IN THE SOUTH.
KEPT THE SMALL POPS ON THE TENNESSEE BORDER TUESDAY NIGHT...DUE TO
THE SLOWER/WEAKER FRONTAL PASSAGE. IT COULD BE A WET DAY OR TWO
OVER WEST KENTUCKY. OOPS JUST JINXED IT.

.LONG TERM...(WEDESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 248 PM CDT SUN JUL 8 2012

THE CLOSED SFC TO 500 MB LOW OVER SOUTHWEST LOUISIANA ON THE 12Z
SUNDAY MANDATORY LEVEL UPPER AIR CHARTS IS FORECAST BY THE
DETERMINISTIC GFS NUMERICAL GUIDANCE TO ELONGATE FROM SOUTHEAST TO
NORTHEAST THROUGH THE LENGTH OF THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY BEFORE
RETROGRADING SOUTHWARD TOWARD THE GULF OF MEXICO BY TUESDAY.

THE WEAKNESS /GREATER INSTABILITY ALOFT/ AFFORDED BY THIS LOW WILL
AID IN THE SHARPENING OF THE TROUGH AT THE INFLECTION POINT ALONG
THE BASE OF THE TROUGH. THIS FORCES THE DEVELOPMENT OF A CLOSED
UPPER LOW OVER WESTERN KENTUCKY AND A SHARPENING /NORTH TO SOUTH
ORIENTED/ TROUGH LATE THURSDAY. THE SHEAR ALOFT AND THE MOISTURE
CONVERGENCE ASSOCIATED WITH THE INVERTED TROUGH SHOULD INCREASE THE
POTENTIAL FOR SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY OVER THE SOUTHERN
PENNYRILE REGION...CLOSER TO THE CHRISTIAN...TODD...MUHLENBERG
COUNTIES WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY.

AS A SERIES OF IMPULSES IS FORECAST TO ROTATE AROUND THE BASE OF THE
TROUGH INTO WESTERN TENNESSEE AND CENTRAL KENTUCKY ON FRIDAY. AT THE
SAME TIME...THE PERSISTENT UPPER RIDGE IN THE WEST /CURRENTLY
FOCUSED IN THE EASTERN DAKOTAS/ WILL MOVE INTO EASTERN
COLORADO...WHILE THE RIDGE IN THE CAROLINAS MOVES UP TO THE DELMARVA
REGION ON THE EASTERN SEABOARD. THE NEXT RESULT WILL BE TO SHIFT THE
RAIN CHANCES FURTHER TO THE WEST FROM FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY OVER THE
REMAINDER OF THE WFO PAH FORECAST AREA.

DURING THIS TRANSITIONAL PHASE AS THE RAIN CHANCES MOVE WESTWARD
WITH TIME NEXT WEEKEND...THERE MAY BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY/LIFT FOR
CONDITIONAL STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS TO DEVELOP OVER THE PENNYRILE
REGION OF WEST KENTUCKY. CURRENT PLANS ARE TO JUST HIGHLIGHT THIS
SEVERE POTENTIAL IN THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER
OUTLOOK.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1241 PM CDT SUN JUL 8 2012

INSERTED A 2-4 HOUR PERIOD OF VCTS WITH VFR CONDITIONS AT EACH
SITE ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL TIMELINE GIVEN IN THE UPDATE
SECTION. COULD NOT FIND ANY COHERENT FORCING FOR CONVECTION
OVERNIGHT...ONCE THE DIURNAL CONVECTION DIES OFF...SO KEPT THE
TAFS DRY UNTIL MONDAY MORNING. INSERTED A VFR -TSRA PROB30 AT ALL
SITES BEGINNING IN THE NORTH FIRST AND EVENTUALLY REACHING KPAH BY
16Z.

KEPT WINDS LIGHT THROUGH THE PERIOD...BUT DID SHOW A POST-FRONTAL
NORTHEAST WIND AT KEVV IN THE MORNING.
