622 FXUS63 KPAH 300351 AFDPAH Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Paducah KY 1051 PM CDT Sun Jun 29 2025 .KEY MESSAGES... - Isolated to scattered showers and storms expected through Monday. Heavy rainfall, lightning, and gusty winds will be possible. - A drier trend continues for Independence Day with seasonal highs in the upper 80`s to lower 90`s. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 242 PM CDT Sun Jun 29 2025 Lower heights extend across the northern tier of the US this afternoon with an upper level disturbance to the northwest. A few showers and storms have resulted and will continue into the evening hours. PW`s remain very high with values over 2 inches and will result in periods of heavy rainfall and isolated flash flooding. A few isolated or scattered showers/storms may continue into the night as low level waa remains atop the region. Amplification of a northern stream trough occurs across the Midwest on Monday. This will send a cold front through the region Monday night into early Tuesday morning. Increasing wind fields aloft may lead to a strong to severe risk with any thunderstorm complex with damaging winds the primary hazard. Once again, localized flash flooding will be possible. We finally see some drier weather behind the front Tuesday. Guidance continues to show the rest of this week dry as upper level ridging builds across the region. Toward the end of the forecast period, another trough moves into the plains and begins to bring low-end PoPs into portions of the area. Temperatures in the upper 80`s early to mid week will rise into the low to mid 90`s by the end of the week and into the weekend. && .AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY/... Issued at 1047 PM CDT Sun Jun 29 2025 Isolated to scattered showers and storms will be possible at any time throughout this TAF issuance with brief reductions to MVFR or possibly lower visibilities in heavier precipitation. Otherwise, the better chance of more widespread organized shower and thunderstorm activity will be Monday afternoon into Monday evening as a cold front approaches/moves through the area from west to east. && .PAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
