Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Huntsville AL
326 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

.NEAR TERM...(Tonight)
Issued at 326 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

A couple of concerns for this afternoon and into this evening. The
first is the threat for strong to severe storms, which could impact
the eastern half of the area. We've been watching the storms moving
north out of the Birmingham area and the rainfall from this morning
has kept temperatures on the cooler side, which has prevented any
deeper updrafts from developing. However, the clearer skies over
eastern AL/western GA allowed temps to warm up into the low to mid
80s and with the strong S/SE flow pointed directly at our NE AL
counties temps have gradually warmed in the past hour or two. The
storms are starting to maintain their strength as they move into
Blount county and approach Marshall/DeKalb counties. Both wind shear
and low level helicity values are extremely favorable for tornado
development and we will be watching the storms very closely this
afternoon. With that said, there is potential for a few stronger
storms to develop over central/northern MS as the clearer skies have
allowed temps to warm into the mid to upper 80s. These may clip far
NW AL but storms will be more isolated in nature based on latest
GOES-16 visible imagery showing limited CU development.

The second concern for this afternoon and tonight is the potential
for flash flooding. Areas along and east of I-65 have received
upwards of 2-2.5 inches of rain from storms this morning. The
showers/storms moving through central AL will be moving right over
where the heavier rain fell earlier today. PWATs via the 12/18z BMX
sounding are upwards of 2.5 inches and we could easily see those
type of amounts fall in an hour in the stronger storms. Thankfully,
we've had a break in the rainfall and that has allowed for some
stabilization in the runoff and reports from those counties suggest
only ponding of water in low lying areas at this time. But the influx
of these heavier storms and potential for an additional 1-2 inches
of rain this afternoon could result in localized flash flooding.

Have decided against issuing any type of Flash Flood Watch as we
would only be concerned with the next few hours for NE AL and at
this point it's too late for one. Will mention flooding concerns in
HWO and other public products.

For the rest of the evening we can expect a gradual downward trend in
the coverage of rainfall as the drier air that is wrapping around the
eastern side of TD Cindy will keep precip limited. This additional
break in rainfall will help with any flooding that develops this
afternoon before additional rain arrives on Friday. As TD Cindy
begins to lift N/NE up through LA/AR this evening, expect winds to
increase with gusts of 20-25 mph possible tonight. The wind and
cloudy conditions will keep temps on the warmer side and values are
only forecast to drop into the low to mid 70s.

.SHORT TERM...(Friday through Saturday night)
Issued at 326 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

For Friday, TD Cindy is expected to weaken to a post-tropical
cyclone as it moves further inland. The current forecast track will
take it through western TN Friday morning and then up across northern
TN/southern KY during the day. We can expect winds to be a bit higher
on Friday as we are closer to the center of the system and gusts up
to 30 mph are possible. Wouldn't be surprised to see a few isolated
reports of 35-40 mph in a few locations tomorrow.

With the storm to our north during the day we can expect partly
cloudy skies, which should allow for temps to warm into the mid 80s.
Those values combined with dewpoints remaining the low to mid 70s
should be more than enough for the development of strong to severe
storms on Friday. While the shear vectors and overall low level
helicity values won't be as strong as this afternoon, the potential
for more vigorous thunderstorm development should allow for an
increased threat for severe storms. Tornadoes, damaging wind gusts,
and flash flooding will be the hazards with storms tomorrow. We
remain in a Slight Risk via SPC and that is warranted based on the
parameters expected tomorrow.

The only good news in terms of flooding threat is that the areas that
received the heaviest rain today are expected to see lower values on
Friday and the areas that haven't seen much will get the brunt of the
rainfall tomorrow. With QPF values forecast to remain below flash
flood guidance for much of the area have held off on issuing any type
of Flash Flood Watch for tomorrow as well. Will be mainly concerned
with any type of banding/training of storms tomorrow.

The remnants of Cindy will be pushed off to the east by a cold front
that is expected to drop into the area behind the departing system.
Models have delayed the arrival of the front a bit compared to
previous guidance and don't move it completely through the area until
Saturday afternoon/evening. So, adjusted PoPs a bit to leave them in
a bit longer on Saturday. Drier air in the lower levels will be quick
to rush in during the day Saturday and likely keep any activity
limited to showers. By Saturday night all precip will be south of the
area and much cooler air spreads in with overnight lows Saturday into
Sunday will be in the low to mid 60s. This will be a welcome change
from the high humidity values we have had the past past few days.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Wednesday)
Issued at 326 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

Dry conditions will persist through the long term period, as surface
high pressure slides southward into the region. Temperatures will be
on the "cool" side for late June, given a broad upper level trough
that will remain anchored over the eastern CONUS. High temperatures
will generally remain in the lower 80s on Sunday through Tuesday,
with a gradual warming trend beginning Wednesday. Under good
radiational cooling conditions, overnight lows will cool into the
upper 50s each night.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon)
Issued at 1220 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

The rain from this morning has shifted off to the east but another
band of rain is moving up from the north. Based on the movement of
this secondary band believe it will stay to the east of the KMSL
terminal. Could arrive between 19-20z into the KHSV terminal with
cigs/vis alternating between MVFR/IFR conditions. There is drier air
to the east of TD Cindy that is over central MS and this will move
over the TN Valley later tonight pushing the rain off to the east.
Expect southerly winds to increase through the afternoon and pick
even more during the day Friday as the center of TD Cindy passes just
to the north.

Amendments might be needed to handle any changes in the movement of
the rain band this afternoon/evening.

EF2 close to end of June is impressive. What is more impressive is the amount of video that was taken from downtown Birmingham businesses in the upper floors of the lowering. It could certainly have been worse given the damage to the local businesses in Fairfield. Never sleep on land falling tropical systems.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Huntsville AL 947 AM CDT Fri Jun 23 2017

.NEAR TERM...(Rest of Today) Issued at 946 AM CDT Fri Jun 23 2017 It will be an active day weather wise across the TN Valley as the remnants of TD Cindy begin to shift E/NE across northern TN. This morning we were dealing with a weak convergence axis that spawned some light to moderate showers out ahead of the main band of precip that remains off to the west. We are starting to see some breaks in the cloud cover and as a result temps are warming into the lower 80s across the western half of the area. The threats for today will be tornadoes and flooding. The warmer temps and slightly steeper lapse rates compared to yesterday should allow for instability to range from 300-700 J/kg. In addition to this, the strong S/SW winds out ahead of the system has resulted in a bulls-eye of 30-40kts of effective shear and helicity values upwards of 400 m2/s2. These values are very favorable rotation and any stronger storms that do form will be able to tap into these values and a few tornadoes are certainly possible later this morning into the early afternoon hours. There is a chance that a Tornado Watch might be needed for our area later today but we will continue to monitor the conditions and coordinate with SPC on that.

Mesoscale Discussion 1130
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1054 AM CDT Fri Jun 23 2017

Areas affected...Middle TN...Northeast MS...Central/northern AL

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely

Valid 231554Z - 231730Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

SUMMARY...A gradual increase in the severe threat is expected late
this morning into the afternoon. A few tornadoes and isolated
damaging wind gusts will be the primary threats. Watch issuance is
likely late this morning or early this afternoon.

DISCUSSION...Convection has been increasing in intensity this
morning, along the leading edge of the broader precipitation shield
associated with TC Cindy. The environment ahead this convection is
characterized by very moist/tropical profiles, with poor lapse rates
but favorable wind profiles for supercells and other organized storm
structures. As continued heating and modest destabilization occurs
downstream, the severe threat is expected to increase. Recent CAM
guidance is suggestive of a mixed-mode threat, with some tornado
threat resulting from mini-supercell development, while a threat of
damaging wind gusts will increase with larger-scale convective line
segments.

In a relative sense, the tornado threat will likely be greatest
across the northern portion of the MCD area, where backed low-level
flow will increase low-level shear/SRH, while the wind threat may be
maximized further south, where low-level flow remains strong but
vertical profiles would tend to favor line segments. One or more
watches are likely late this morning or early this afternoon to
cover these threats.
