AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
250 PM CST WED DEC 6 1995

19Z SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS WEAK FRNT CURRENTLY MOVING INTO EXTREME N
PARTS OF THE CWA.  LATEST KMOB 88D LOOP SHOWS A FEW WIDELY SCT TRWS
DEVELOPING OVR PARTS OF THE WASHINGTON AND MONROE CO`S.  LATEST WV LOOP
SHOWS WEAK S/W MOVING ALONG THE FRNT PUSHING E MGM.  LATEST GRIDDED
DATA SHOWS FRNT TO PUSH NR MOB AFTER 06Z MAKING IT TO THE AL AND
FL CST AROUND 12Z OR SHORTLY AFTER.  THE FRNT WILL BE SLOW TO EXIT
THE FL CST DURING MORNING HOURS AFTER SUNRISE.  WITH DEWPTS IN THE UPPER
60`S OVR MUCH OF THE CWA AREA AND IN THE 70S JUST S OF THE CST AND MEAN RH
VALUES FROM 50 TO 70% THRU 12Z EXPECT SUF MOISTURE TO REMAIN IN PLACE
FOR RWS AND TRWS TO DEV AS THE FRNT EASES THRU.  BEST INSTABILTY ALONG
THE FRONT STILL LOOKS TO BE TO THE WEST S OF LA STRETCHING NE OVR MS
AND AL CSTL AREAS TONIGHT AND EARLY THUR MORNING.  CURRENT SKIES HAVE
BECOME BROKEN ACROSS THE CST AREAS ALLOWING TEMPS TO WARM INTO THE
UPPER 70S.  WITH SOME PARTIAL CLEARING THIS EVENING AND WITH THE FRNT
APPROACHING FROM THE N EXPECT WIDESPREAD DENSE FOG TO DEV BEFORE MIDNIGHT
TO THE N THEN SPREAD S TO THE CST THROUGH SUNRISE.  I THINK A DENSE FbOG
ADVISORY WILL BE NECESSARY FOR MOST OF THE REGION TONIGHT THRU 14Z EVEN
THOUGH CLOUDS ARE STILL IN PLACE.  FOG SHOULD BEGIN TO LIFT OUT
OVER WEST PARTS OF THE FCST AREA BEFORE THIS TIME.
