.DISCUSSION...
CURRENT SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A WEAK AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE
SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS...WITH A WARM AND MOIST AIR MASS OVER THE
FORECAST AREA. A MARGINALLY UNSTABLE AIR MASS IS PROGGED TO DEVELOP
OVER THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WITH ISOLATED
CONVECTION LIKELY DEVELOPING AROUND THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. MODEL
SOUNDINGS CONTINUE TO REVEAL A WARM MID-LEVEL LAYER AROUND 600 MB...
WHICH SHOULD HELP TO KEEP ANY CONVECTION FROM BECOMING TOO STRONG.

OVERALL...CURRENT FORECAST FOR TODAY APPEARS TO BE ON TRACK...BUT WILL
UPDATE THIS MORNING TO ADD A MENTION OF ISOLATED CONVECTION OVER THE
NORTHERN CUMBERLAND PLATEAU.
