Areas affected...portions of central/eastern Kentucky

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

Valid 071328Z - 071500Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Sporadic strong gusts to 40-50 mph are possible this
morning across parts of central and eastern Kentucky.

DISCUSSION...A line of elevated storms will continue to shift
east/southeast this morning on the nose of a low-level jet and along
a roughly north/south oriented instability gradient. VWP data from
KLVX and KJKL highlight the low-level jet well, with perhaps some
weakening of this feature across central KY through the next few
hours as the jet weakens diurnally and shifts east/southeast across
eastern KY. This may limit longevity of organized convection to the
short term. However, dewpoints in the mid 50s to low 60s F are
forecast to increase over the next few hours. With heating into
early afternoon, additional destabilization and erosion of low-level
inhibition may support a continued risk for sporadic strong gusts in
the 40-50 mph range the next few hours. Given the sporadic and
marginal nature of the risk in the short term, a watch is not
currently expected, but trends will continue to be monitored for
possible increase in severe potential toward afternoon.
