NWS Forecaster Discussion
501 fxus64 klzk 051151 afdlzk Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Little Rock Arkansas 651 am CDT Sat Jul 5 2008 Aviation... scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected again today with mainly MVFR conditions. However LIFR conditions are expected in the north at hro early this morning with fog reducing visibility to 1/4sm. Storms will be along a stationary front on the western fringe of an area of high pressure. Storms will be concentrated in the east tonight as a short wave moves across. Isolated thunderstorms are expected Sunday and high pressure and dry weather will return for Monday. && Previous discussion... /issued 543 am CDT Sat Jul 5 2008/ Update... patchy fog has developed across the forecast area and a quick update is needed to add it to the zones for a few hours this morning. Previous discussion... /issued 320 am CDT Sat Jul 5 2008/ Short term...today through Tuesday not many differences between the models this morning in the synoptic scale but the usual differences in the smaller scale features continue. Differences should not have a large impact on our sensible weather this period and will go with a blend of model solutions this morning with a lean toward the more consistent GFS. Major features showing up quite clearly on moisture channel imagery this morning. Upper flow characterized by western US ridging and troffing over the Ohio Valley with northwest flow continuing early in the period. The upper trough eventually closes off into an upper low by Sunday morning which weakens and pulls off to the northeast with upper level ridging returning over the southern Continental U.S. Early Monday. Ridge will then be the dominate weather feature through the remainder of the period with prevailing westerlies suppressed to the northern tier states. Latest surface analysis shows nearly stationary boundary extending roughly from Blytheville to Fort Smith. Models have the boundary possible getting just a little further south before it begins to lift out and dissipate by early Sunday. Still one more round of convection to deal with as upper impulse drops down from the northwest today and expecting a situation similar to Friday morning during the Saturday afternoon and evening time frame. Models continue to hit a middle level jet maximum moving from northwest Arkansas into Louisiana. Believe this feature may be underdone by the models and will go above guidance probability of precipitation here. Locally heavy rain is a possibility with precipitable waters in excess of 1.75 inches during this time frame. Enough moisture and instability exists for diurnal type precipitation Sunday afternoon as well but only chance to slight chances probability of precipitation can be justified. Remainder of the period looks hot and generally dry as upper ridging returns to the area. Even diurnal precipitation Monday looks hard to come by as airmass be warming and appears capped. Upper level impulse approaches late Tuesday which will weaken the ridge just enough to warrant chance probability of precipitation across the north and slight chance probability of precipitation across the central sections late. Temperatures will be warming under the expanding ridge with upper 80s to lower 90s today and widespread 90s Sunday through Tuesday. Overnight lows will hover near 70 degrees area wide. Mav/mex numbers look reasonable and are generally accepted. Long term...Tuesday night through Friday night... models show an upper trough over the plains to start the period... poised to move into Arkansas. The trough will move through Arkansas Wednesday night through Thursday night. Precipitation chances will increase as this trough traverses the state. Best chances of precipitation will be Wednesday night. Showers and thunderstorms will dissipate west to east Thursday evening. High pressure takes a stronger hold on the state Friday and will keep the area dry. Temperatures will be near normal through the period. && Preliminary point temps/pops...
