Severe Thunderstorm Warning 247, NWS Birmingham, AL

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
316 PM CDT WED JUN 21 2006

.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT - FRIDAY NIGHT)

QUICKLY APPROACHING 100 DEGREES THIS AFTERNOON FOR SEVERAL AREAS
IN CENTRAL ALABAMA...IN FACT, BHM HAS OFFICIALLY REACHED THE
CENTURY MARK. A FEW ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS OFFERING SOME RELIEF
BUT NOT MUCH COVERAGE WISE. CENTER OF UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL
SLOWLY EASE EASTWARD TOMORROW...TEMPERATURES WILL STILL CLIMB INTO
THE MID 90S WITH ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS.

BY FRIDAY...THE UPPER RIDGE OVER THE SOUTHEAST BEGINS TO BREAK
DOWN AS AN EASTERN CONUS TROF STARTS SHAPING UP. BETTER MOISTURE
AND WEAKENING RIDGE SHOULD ALLOW FOR SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS OVER
THE NORTH AND AT LEAST ISOLATED CHANCES OVER THE SOUTH...ON
FRIDAY...PERHAPS LINGERING INTO THE EVENING HOURS.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY - WEDNESDAY)

AS UPPER TROF BECOMES MORE ESTABLISHED ON SATURDAY...IT WILL PUSH
A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY INTO THE AREA AND ENHANCE THE CHANCE FOR
AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS FOR SEVERAL DAYS. WITH
INCREASED MOISTURE...TEMPERATURES WILL BE MUCH MORE TOLERABLE.

SOME NOTICEABLE MODEL DIFFERENCES IN THE EVOLUTION OF THE TROF BY
NEXT TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...BUT AT LEAST ISOLATED POPS ARE
WARRANTED WITH NEAR AVERAGE TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION...DISCUSSION FOR 18Z TAFS...
VFR CONDITIONS WILL BE EXPECTED FOR ALL TAF SITES IN THE 18Z PACKAGE.
MID LEVEL RIDGE ANCHORED ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE NEXT 24
HOURS. MOST CONVECTION WILL BE INHIBITED...BUT ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE AROUND CENTRAL ALABAMA. THE CHANCES THAT ANY
TERMINAL WILL BE AFFECTED ARE SLIM AND WILL NOT BE MENTIONED AT THIS
TIME. CUMULUS FIELD WILL BE DEVELOPED BY AROUND THE 18Z ISSUANCE
TIME...WITH INITIAL DEVELOPMENT AROUND 3500FT. THE CLOUDS WILL LIFT
TO 6K OR 7K FEET BY 21Z. SURFACE DEW POINT DEPRESSIONS OVERNIGHT
WILL NOT BE CONDUCIVE TO FOG DEVELOPMENT. WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE
LIGHT AT 6 KNOTS OR LESS.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
SIMILAR CONCERNS JUST 24 HOURS LATER. KBDI VALUES INTO THE
CRITICAL RANGE...MINIMUM AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES INTO
THE 30S...AND DRY ANTECEDENT SOIL CONDITIONS. WILL STICK WITH THE
IDEA THAT WINDS WILL BE THE LIMITED FACTOR...AS LIGHT WINDS OF 6
KNOTS OR LESS EXPECTED DURING SUNLIGHT HOURS. CAUTION SHOULD BE
EXERCISED DURING OUTDOOR BURNING ACTIVITIES.
