DISCUSSION...The late-day GOES-E IR satellite imagery along with radar shows an elongated and generally disorganized axis of showers and thunderstorms impacting areas of the Mid-South into the OH Valley. Some of the cooler convective tops over the last hour have been noted over areas of central and western KY, northwest TN, and parts of eastern AR where there has been a tad more low-level convergence along with a favorable thermodynamic environment for renewed rounds of convection. MLCAPE values more broadly across the region are generally still on the order of 1000 to 2000 J/kg, and the column remains very moist with PWs locally near or over 2 inches. For many areas, that is in the 90th percentile of climatology, and this has helped foster heavy rainfall rates with some of the bands of convection over the last few hours. The pattern across the region in the low-levels remains generally convergent along and south of a quasi-stationary front which also involves a wave of low pressure over northwest AR. However, aloft there is an elongated axis of mid-level vort energy which extends from the Lower MS Valley northeastward into the Lower OH Valley. Some modest deeper layer ascent is associated with this energy, and a combination of this with the front and also the moist/unstable boundary layer regime should support a continuation of scattered to broken bands of convection at least through the late-evening hours. Rainfall rates with the additional storms will still be capable of reaching 2 inches/hour, and with some localized pockets of cell-training, some of the additional rainfall totals going through midnight may reach 2 to 4 inches. Some additional isolated to scattered areas of flash flooding will be possible as a result, and especially with the moist antecedent conditions and local urban sensitivities.
