Area Discussion for - Morristown, TN

      (on/off)   Help   NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition

Fxus64 kmrx 210730 afdmrx area forecast discussion national weather service morristown tn 330 am edt Mon oct 21 2019 Short term (today through Tuesday) We will begin the day with a low overcast ceiling as boundary layer cooling and a strong inversion has led to extensive stratus and fog this morning. This should lift and scatter through the morning, but high to midlevel clouds will start to increase in the afternoon. We will also have a strengthening southerly LLJ late in the day, which may create some downslope warming drying in the lee of the mountains. Showers are expected to enter the plateau counties late in the afternoon. Convection to our west is expected to be weakening as it approaches due to weakening frontogenetic forcing and a lack of instability. The models depict a pre-frontal convective line moving across al ga that will cut off the northward advection of higher theta-e air into our area. As a result, the forecast will delay the onset of categorical pops in the valley until midnight when forcing along the cold front starts to enter the area. The model trend has been toward less instabilty, which was already low with previous runs, so a severe threat is unlikely. Will maintain a mention of slight chance of thunderstorms, and a mention of gusty winds possible in the hwo. The cold front will exit Tuesday morning with advection of drier and cooler air following in the afternoon. Long term (Tuesday night through Sunday) Quiet pattern Tuesday night through Thursday night as high pressure builds over the forecast area. Zonal flow and cooler temperatures will cause lows to drop again into the upper 30s to lower 40s both

Wednesday and Thursday mornings. More frost possible both days but no widespread freeze yet. Temperatures only in the 60s Wednesday but warming to the lower 70s Thursday. Next change in the pattern begins Thursday night into the weekend with the canadian and ECMWF showing a closed low develop over the southwest states and northern mexico with a surface low and front moving out of the plains by Saturday with rain spreading over the area through the weekend. GFS model shows next system as an open wave that forms with a central plains trough Thursday night and then spreading precipitation into the area early Friday and moving out by early Saturday with high pressure overhead for the weekend. Will use a blend and have rain move in Friday with front but linger through the weekend as secondary low pressure system moves up from the southwest Saturday and moves through Sunday. Colder temperatures Friday and Saturday but warming Sunday as system shifts east and slight ridging aloft develops.

There are five sources. 1) Documents and manuals from a variety of sources. These have not been checked for accuracy and in many cases have not even been read by anyone associated with L-36.com. I have no idea of they are useful or accurate, I leave that to the reader. 2) Articles others have written and submitted. If you have questions on these, please contact the author. 3) Articles that represent my personal opinions. These are intended to promote thought and for entertainment. These are not intended to be fact, they are my opinions. 4) Small programs that generate result presented on a web page. Like any computer program, these may and in some cases do have errors. Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
