AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NASHVILLE TN
958 PM CDT THU JUL 18 2002

ONE LONE CELL CURRENTLY MOVING EAST ACROSS NORTHERN COFFEE AND 
SOUTHERN CANNON COUNTIES. CELL IS HOLDING TOGETHER SO WILL CONTINUE 
POPS FOR THE PLATEAU AREA.

UPPER SHORTWAVE STILL EXISTS ACROSS MO AND AR WITH SHOWERS AND 
STORMS STILL ONGOING ACROSS THE MS RIVER. AS THIS SHORTWAVE MOVES 
SLOWLY EASTWARD...THE POSSIBILITY STILL EXISTS WHEREBY IMPULSES AND 
WEAK PVA TO THE EAST OF THE SHORTWAVE AXIS COULD SPAWN A FEW SHOWERS 
OR STORMS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT. 

WILL ISSUE UPDATE AND DROP POPS TO 20 PERCENT AREA WIDE. REMAINDER 
OF FORECAST IS ON TRACK AS ONLY A VERY SLOW TEMPERATURE DROP CAN BE 
EXPECTED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE OVERNIGHT. THOUGH RAIN COOLED AIR 
ALREADY ABOUNDS...LOWER DEWPOINT SPREADS SHOULD PREVENT TEMPS FROM 
FALLING RAPIDLY.

.BNA...NONE.
