Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 235 PM CDT Sat Jun 22 2019 .DISCUSSION... One line of showers and thunderstorms down, (hopefully only) one more to go today. After this morning's line move out of Middle TN, many west of I-65 have had a chance to recover. Skies cleared out and temperatures close to the TN River have climbed back into the low 80s. Coupled with dew points in the low 70s, an instability gradient has developed across our western counties of Middle TN. Looking upstream, today's second line of showers and thunderstorms are already plowing through Western KY and approaching NW portions of the mid-state. While nothing has been warned on as of this writing, storms have yet to get into some of the higher instabilities. That said, shear values are still meager in this same region. This should reduce the potential for any widespread severe storms, however building MLCAPE values will do nothing but fuel these storms as they enter our western counties. For these reasons, we'll continue to highlight the potential for strong storms (mainly west of I-65) through early this evening with a small chance of an isolated severe wind gust. Once we get through this evening, we should get at least an overnight lull, if not most of tomorrow. The problem with that, some models are hinting at another wave Sunday evening and if we see a full day of heating without rain, we could be dealing with more severe weather tomorrow evening. At this point, due to serious model uncertainty, we'll just carry a chance PoP Sunday afternoon and really focus PoPs into Monday morning. Yes, Monday, too. While it looks like Monday will be wet, there is a silver lining -- it could be a pattern changer. Both the GFS and Euro are showing an upper level system swinging through here Monday and while I can't say the rest of the week will be dry, at least we should be able to get back into the normal diurnal pattern of afternoon/evening showers and thunderstorms versus having to deal with the northwesterly approach of system after system. If this does occur as currently being shown and we can get this pattern change, it will come with the return of normal summertime temperatures. Will maintain 90s returning to Middle TN by mid- week and they should stick around for awhile. && .AVIATION... 18Z TAF DISCUSSION. Mainly VFR conditions expected, but with the approach of yet another line of TS, reduced categories are likely for each of our mid-state terminals through early this evening. Some could see brief IFR, but MVFR is more likely. The TS will also come with wind gusts, but 25-30 kts should be the top end. Winds calm overnight and become southerly once again. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
