.DISCUSSION...

...SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE THROUGH THIS EVENING...

REST OF THIS AFTERNOON/TONIGHT...LATEST RADAR LOOPS WERE SHOWING TWO
LINES OF STORMS OVER THE EASTERN/NORTH CENTRAL GULF. THE BOTTOM
PORTION LINE OVER THE EASTERN GULF SHOWS APPARENT STRENGTHENING
TREND LAST SEVERAL TAMPA RADAR SWEEPS. SECOND LINE LINE OF STORMS
WAS DEVELOPING ABOUT 100 MILES BEHIND THE LEADING BAND OF STORMS
OVER THE BIG BEND/EASTERN GULF. LATEST RUC40 UPDATE SHOWED
STRENGTHENING MID AND UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS/INCREASING UPR DIVERGENCE
...COLD POCKET OF AIR AT 500MB OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF COAST AND
CENTRAL GULF WATERS. THESE PARAMETERS SHOULD MOVE ACROSS THE
NORTHERN CWA LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING KEEPING THREAT OF STRONG/SEVERE
STORMS IN THE FORECAST. STRONG VORTICITY ADVECTION AND INCREASING
LARGE SCALE LIFT/DIV Q THROUGH MID/UPPER LEVEL COLUMN SHOULD THEN
MAINTAIN HIGH PROBABILITY OF THUNDER AFTER MIDNIGHT FROM
ORLANDO-CAPE CANAVERAL SOUTH. OVERNIGHT LOWS LOOK GOOD WHEN TAKING
INTO CONSIDERATION ANY RAIN COOLED AIR FROM STORM DOWNDRAFTS.

FRI...BAND OF CONVECTION SHOULD BE OVER FAR SOUTHERN SECTIONS EARLY
IN THE DAY THEN SHIFT SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA BEFORE NOON.  DRYING
WILL WORK INTO THE REGION BEHIND THE WEAKENING COLD FRONT DRIVING
THE DEEP CONVECTION.  PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ARE FORECAST TO FALL
TO AROUND AN INCH.  DEEP LAYER CYCLONIC FLOW HOWEVER WILL LEAD TO
DESTABILIZATION DURING AFTERNOON HEATING.  LIMITED DEEP MOISTURE
SHOULD HOLD COVERAGE OF CONVECTION TO SCATTERED...WITH AFTERNOON
DEVELOPMENT PROBABLY HAVING THE MOST COVERAGE IN THE NORTH WHERE
MINUS 14-15 DEGREE 500 MB TEMPS ARE PROGGED.  COULD SEE A FEW STORMS
PRODUCING HAIL IF INCREASING APRIL SUN ANGLE DOES ITS THING AND
PRODUCES ENOUGH INSTABILITY.

SAT...UPPER TROUGH WILL SHIFT EAST OF THE AREA BY EARLY IN THE DAY
SO LARGE SCALE SUBSIDENCE WILL PRODUCE DRYING.  STILL COULD BE SOME
LOW CLOUDS AS LOW LEVEL MOIST CYCLONIC FLOW LINGERS.

SUN-MON...SURFACE RIDGE ALONG THE EAST COAST WILL SWING WINDS TO
ONSHORE BUT RIDGE ALOFT WILL KEEP DEEP MOISTURE LIMITED SO CONTINUED
DRY CONDITIONS.

TUE-THU...MODELS NOT IN TOO BAD OF AGREEMENT IN NEXT LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM MOVING EASTWARD ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...BUT FURTHER
NORTH THAN THE CURRENT ONE.  HAVE KEPT A DRY FORECAST FOR TUE AND A
CHANCE FOR STORMS WED.  WITH TIMING/STRENGTH UNCERTAINTIES...SOME
ACTIVITY COULD COME IN AS EARLY AS LATE TUE THOUGH.  ALSO IF SYSTEM
STAYS FAR ENOUGH TO THE NORTH...THERE WILL BE LIMITED DRYING THU SO
HAVE KEPT CHANCE POPS GOING THEN.

&&

.MARINE...ADVISORY TONIGHT SHOULD GIVE WAY TO IMPROVING CONDITIONS
DURING THE DAY FRI AS WEST WINDS WORK IN BEHIND WEAKENING COLD FRONT
AND GRADIENT DECREASES.  OFFSHORE FLOW WILL CONTINUE SAT THEN A WEAK
BACKDOOR FRONT WILL PUSH OFF THE EASTERN SEABOARD SUNDAY WITH HIGH
PRESSURE RIDGE BEHIND IT RETURNING THE FLOW TO ONSHORE BY SUN
NIGHT.  THE FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO VEER EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH
INCREASING SOUTHEAST WINDS TUE AS STORM SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE
MIDDLE PART OF THE COUNTRY.
