The episode as NWS LMK wrote it up.
On September 11th, moisture pooled along a pre-frontal trough during the early morning hours across southern Indiana and northern Kentucky. A modest low level jet brought a continuous source of moisture to an area of convection that moved southwards across southern Indiana after midnight. This line of storms slowly sagged south and briefly stalled roughly along Interstate 64. Over a three hour period, training convection brought two to locally over 3 inches to several southern Indiana counties along the Ohio River.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Louisville, KY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Sep 10, 10:03 PM EST, 1 hour 51 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOUISVILLE KY
1103 PM EDT Wed Sep 10 2014
...Forecast Update...
Issued at 1100 PM EDT Tue Sep 10 2014
Looking at the latest guidance concern has increased for the
potential for training storms across southern Indiana and portions
of north central Kentucky. Where exactly the boundary will stall out
is still a bit in question. However, given the high amounts of
moisture pooling ahead of the front and the potential for training
there is certainly the potential for some flash flooding overnight.
We have therefore issued a Flash Flood Watch through 12Z. Urban and
low lying areas have the highest potential for flooding along with
small creeks and streams
Issued at 918 PM EDT Tue Sep 10 2014
A couple of lines of showers and storms have developed tonight as a
prefrontal trough and cold front approach from the west and
northwest. A few light showers have moved into Dubois county so far
this evening. Rain chances will increase quickly across southern
Indiana over the next few hours as the lines of storms move in and
potentially begin to merge. A few warnings have been issued across
IL, MO, and IN this evening. However, instability will continue to
decrease overnight. Flow will become almost parallel to the
boundaries while moisture pools in front of them. Thus, the main
concern for the LMK forecast area will be heavy rainfall and the
potential for ponding of water or some flash flooding. The highest
potential for heavy rain/flooding will be along and north of the
Ohio River.
Made some edits to the forecast this evening, mainly to refine the
timing of the precipitation and bring the forecast in line with
current observations.
.SHORT TERM (Now through Thursday Night)...
Issued at 250 PM EDT Wed Sep 10 2014
Extensive cloud cover has started to thin out across the region this
afternoon. Under breezy south to southwest winds, temperatures are
starting to warm up a bit. Highs have generally been in the upper
70s to the lower 80s. However, with the thinning of the cloud
cover, we should see temperatures warm up a little more this
afternoon. Afternoon readings should top out in the lower to middle
80s. The clouds have also kept instability down and convective
coverage has been quite limited. Convective temperatures are
generally in the 83-85 degree range, so as temperatures warm a
little more, we may see some isolated convection go up. Some of
this convection is already developing across middle TN and this may
move into southern KY later this afternoon/evening.
As we move into the evening/overnight hours, surface cold front
currently over central MO/IL will move SE toward the Ohio Valley.
As this occurs, the front will encounter a warm and and unstable
atmosphere. Lines of convection are expected to develop out to our
west and then shift east east. It appears that one or more lines of
convection may develop out ahead of the actual surface cold front.
With these lines oriented to the low-level southwesterly flow, they
will slowly move east while individual storms move NE along the
line. This may result in some heavy rain/training storms which
could result in locally heavy rain. The main line of convection is
expected to arrive in southern Indiana this evening and approach the
Ohio River just before Midnight EDT. This line will sink
southeastward overnight and affect much of central and south-central
KY during the overnight hours.
While instability will be highest this afternoon, the loss of
heating this evening with the setting sun will lead to a lesser
amount of instability available. While bulk wind shear values will
still be favorable for convection, we expect the convection to
weaken as it pushes through our forecast area. Highest risk of
strong/severe storms will likely be across our NW CWA in southern
Indiana. Damaging winds would be the main severe weather hazard
followed by lightning and heavy rainfall. Across central and
southern KY, heavy rainfall and lightning will be the main weather
hazards. Rainfall amounts of one half to one and a half inches will
be possible by the line of storms passes through the region
overnight. Heavy rains within this moist airmass could result in
some local hydrologic issues with area creeks and streams filling up
quickly along with poor drainage areas. Temperatures will remain
mild overnight with lows dropping into the middle-upper 60s across
the northern parts of southern Indiana with mainly lower 70s across
Kentucky.
Surface cold front looks to slip southward across the state early
Thursday morning with showers and storms ending from northwest to
southeast. The front looks like it will slow down a bit as it comes
through KY, so additional showers and storms across our
east/southeast will remain possible throughout much of the day on
Thursday. Plenty of low-level moisture will be in place, and we'll
probably see quite a bit of low-level cloudiness in the morning with
a slow clearing trend taking place from NW to SE during the
afternoon hours. Temperatures will be much cooler than today with
reading topping out in the mid-upper 70s in the SE and lower 70s
across the NW.
The real surge of cooler and drier air will push into the region
Thursday night as skies clear out. If winds slacken off enough, we
could see a little bit of radiation fog develop late Thursday night,
which will be something to watch as these are fairly common after
frontal passages in the late summer and early fall months. Lows
tomorrow night look to cool into the mid-upper 50s in the north with
upper 50s to around 60 across central and southern Kentucky.
.LONG TERM (Friday through Wednesday)...
Issued at 312 PM EDT Wed Sep 10 2014
Friday - Friday Night...
A nearly stationary frontal boundary will be positioned south of the
CWA on Friday, nearly parallel to the shallow southwest flow aloft.
Meanwhile, surface high pressure will be in control over the
northern half of the CWA. Will keep Friday dry, although can't
completely rule out a stray shower over the extreme southern fringe
of our CWA nearer the frontal boundary. Will watch Friday night as
the right entrance region of the upper level jet slides nearer the
Ohio Valley and gives the best chance to squeeze out a measurable
shower or two. Have confined slight chance mention mainly west of
I-65, underneath the upper level feature. Any deep moisture will be
limited and most places are expected to stay dry. Highs Friday will
range from the low to mid 70s north to south across the area. Lows
Friday night are expected to range in the 55 to 60 range north, with
the low 60s south.
Saturday - Wednesday...
High pressure at the surface will become more established through
the weekend in the wake of a passing shortwave over the Great Lakes.
Expect zonal, but fairly benign mid level flow through Sunday. The
resulting pattern will be dry and noticeably cooler. Look for highs
in the upper 60s north to lower 70s south on Saturday. Expect
slightly warmer on Sunday with lower 70s north to mid 70s south.
Lows Friday night are expect to mostly dip into the lower 50s,
however a fair number of upper 40s readings appear possible over
southern Indiana. Much will depend on if winds can go calm, so will
not get too aggressive at this point as guidance shows winds staying
up around 5 mph or so. Lows Sunday night should range in the low to
mid 50s.
A more amplified shortwave should dive through the flow late Monday
into Monday night and could bring a round of measurable showers to
the area, however questions remain on how much deeper moisture this
system will have to work with, so will leave dry for now. If
precipitation chances need introduced, it will likely need to be
across the northern half or third of the CWA. Will continue the dry
forecast through Wednesday as another area of surface high pressure
builds in behind the passing upper level wave.
Look for highs in the 75 to 80 degree range Monday and Tuesday with
lows mostly in the 50s each night. Temperatures will be slightly
cooler on Wednesday behind the departing second system mentioned
above.
&&
.AVIATION (00Z TAF Update)...
Issued at 640 PM EDT Wed Sep 10 2014
Southwest winds will continue into this evening ahead of the cold
front which will push through tonight. Gusts are expected to
diminish with sunset, but sustained wind speeds will be in the 10-12
knot range. The thinking for these TAFs remains similar to the
previous forecast. The line of storms developing ahead of the cold
front should reach SDF in the 02-04Z time frame and BWG and LEX in
the 05-07Z time frame, though the line should be weakening as it
slides further south and east. Will continue to mention VCTS for a
few hours after the main line of storms.
Ceilings should lower in the wake of the front to low end MVFR.
These cigs will persist through the morning hours, then begin to
improve through the afternoon tomorrow. Winds will shift to
northwesterly in the wake of the front and be around 7-10 knots.
