AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
1020 AM EDT MON APR 10 2006

.UPDATE...THE MORNING MIAMI SOUNDING IS STILL UNSTABLE...BUT NOT
AS UNSTABLE AS YESTERDAY. ALTHOUGH THE H5 TEMP IS COLDER THAN
24 HRS AGO...AT -13.1C...THE ATMOSPHERE HAS COOLED AT THE SURFACE AND
LOWER LEVELS...COMPENSATING FOR THE COLDER MID LEVEL AIR.
STILL...IT IS UNSTABLE...AS THE MODIFIED MIA SOUNDING FOR EXPECTED
AFTERNOON MAXES YIELDS A CAPE OF 2500 J/KG...LI OF -7C...AND A
K-INDEX OF 30. ALTHOUGH BEST CONVERGENCE IS SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA
ALONG THE SURFACE FRONT...EXPECT THIS UNSTABLE AIRMASS TO ALLOW
FOR SCT-NUM SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS TO AFFECT THE
ATLANTIC COAST...DUE TO COASTAL CONVERGENCE IN THE STRENGTHENING
NE FLOW. SOME OF THIS ACTIVITY...AS SHOWN BY THE WRF...MAY MOVE
ACROSS THE PENINSULA AND/OR DEVELOP ESPECIALLY LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AS THE NE FLOW STRENGTHENS. UPDATED THE FORECAST ONLY TO INCREASE
POPS INTO THE LIKELY CATEGORY EAST COAST ZONES. WET BULB ZERO
HEIGHT IS BELOW 10K FT...SO ANY OF THE STORMS THAT DEVELOP THIS
AFTERNOON COULD CONTAIN SMALL HAIL...SO WE WILL UPDATE THE HWO TO
REFLECT THIS POSSIBILITY. /DG

.PREV DISCUSSION...
DISCUSSION...FRONTAL BOUNDARY DRIFTING SOUTHEAST ACROSS SOUTHEAST
FLORIDA WHERE CONVECTION HAS BEEN FIRING UP MOST OF THE LATE NIGHT
AND EARLY MORNING HOURS. SOME OF THE INTENSE STORMS OVER WATER
PROMPTED SEVERAL SPECIAL MARINE WARNINGS. MODELS WANT TO STALL
THIS BOUNDARY ACROSS OUR AREA TODAY AND TONIGHT WHILE AT THE SAME
TIME THE UPPER TROUGH MOVES EAST ACROSS THE PENINSULA THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING BRINGING COOLER AIR ALOFT AND FURTHER
DESTABILIZING THE LOCAL ATMOSPHERE. AN INCREASING NORTHEAST LOW
LEVEL FLOW NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY WILL ALSO ENHANCE LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENCE ACROSS THE AREA. DECIDED TO INCREASE POPS FOR
TODAY...ESPECIALLY ACROSS MIAMI-DADE/BROWARD COUNTIES TO ACCOUNT
MORE THIS.

A SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE OVER EASTERN U.S. WILL MOVE EAST
OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC TONIGHT AND AS IT DOES SO THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN WHICH IN TURN WILL RESULT IN INCREASING NE
WINDS (AS MENTIONED ABOVE). THIS WILL NOT ONLY ENHANCE LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENCE BUT WILL ALSO HELP TO ADVECT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE/LEFT
OVER CONVECTION BACK WEST TO SOUTH FLORIDA. SO, EVEN THOUGH, WILL
GRADUALLY DECREASE POPS, WILL KEEP AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE AT
LEAST THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

MARINE...AS MENTION BEFORE...PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN
ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDAS WATERS AND SO SFC WINDS WILL INCREASE TO 20
TO 25 KTS WITH HIGHER GUSTS AS EARLY AS THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE
NORTHERN ATLANTIC WATERS...LAKE OKEECHOBEE AND PORTIONS OF THE
GULF WATERS. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS NOW IN EFFECT FOR THOSE
WATERS. THESE STRONG NORTHEAST WINDS ALONG WITH VERY ROUGH SEAS
SHOULD CONTINUE TO AFFECT THE ATLANTIC WATERS AT LEAST THROUGH
TUESDAY NIGHT WITH A SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT ON WEDNESDAY.

FIRE WEATHER...NO CONCERNS AT THIS TIME.

EXTENDED FORECAST...ATLANTIC RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE WEST THROUGH THE ENTIRE EXTENDED PERIOD...SO WILL KEEP
SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS IN THE FORECAST THROUGH DAY SEVEN.
