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. ...Leitman/Hart.. 05/07/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_Eswp3DI5jCgckQE7HejtxOpav36IlsXhXqMfCx0EzysKvkvGo2TpjXFo_sbJ9rBmwahCfkAc= bRG1y-f8MQg6oxP_Mk$ for graphic product...
