AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NASHVILLE TN
143 PM CDT WED JUL 30 2014

.DISCUSSION...BROAD AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS THE DOMINANT
WEATHER FEATURE ACROSS MIDDLE TENNESSEE, WITH UNUSUALLY COOL,
DRY AIR IN PLACE. HIGH CLOUDS ARE STREAMING INTO THE MID STATE
TODAY AS A RESULT OF A STORM SYSTEM OCCURRING OVER THE PLAINS, BUT
NO ACTIVE WEATHER IS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON OR TONIGHT. NAM MODEL
OUTPUT FROM 12Z BRINGS THE CURRENT PLAINS SHORTWAVE ACROSS THE
SOUTHEAST BEGINNING TOMORROW, WITH A BROAD SWATH OF MOISTURE
ROTATING AROUND THE BASE OF THE TROUGH. IT APPEARS THAT THE
DEEPEST MOISTURE WILL STAY TO THE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE MID STATE
OVER THE COMING DAYS, BUT ENOUGH MOISTURE WILL ADVECT OUR WAY
THAT, COMBINED WITH LIMITED INSTABILITY INDICATED BY FORECAST
MODEL SOUNDINGS, THAT ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS (AND A FEW
STORMS) ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THIS SYSTEM WILL STALL
OVER THE SOUTHEAST UNTIL BECOMING PROGRESSIVE AT THE START OF NEXT
WEEK AND IT FINALLY PULLS EAST OF THE AREA, WITH HIGH PRESSURE
THEN BUILDING IN AND TEMPERATURES GRADUALLY WARMING CLOSER TO
SEASONAL VALUES BY THE END OF THE 7-DAY FORECAST PERIOD.
