AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
328 PM CDT TUE APR 25 2006

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY)...UPPER LOW OVER THE WESTERN
STATES WILL TONIGHT PASS SOUTH OF THE BASE OF...CONTRIBUTING TO THE
CIRCULATION OF...AN UPPER LOW OVER THE GREAT LAKES. SAID
INTENSIFYING SYSTEM WILL PULL SURFACE FRONT OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS
TO VICINITY OF THE FA BY SUNRISE WEDNESDAY. AT THAT POINT IT WILL
STALL BRINGING LINGERING PRECIP THROUGH MUCH OF WEDNESDAY. MORE
BELOW. 3500 J/KG CAPE AND 8200 FT WET BULB ZERO TELLING US HAIL IS
NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION...IN FACT...MORE LIKELY THAN NOT. /77

&&

.LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY)...FRONT MOVING IN
OVERNIGHT TUESDAY WILL STALL BRINGING CATEGORICAL PRECIP THROUGH
MUCH OF WEDNESDAY. A DEFINED SHORTWAVE IS CALCULATED TO MOVE FROM
THE TRANS PECOS REGION OF TEXAS AND TO PHASE WITH AN OPEN WAVE OVER
THE MIDSOUTH WEDNESDAY. THIS WOULD FURTHER DEVELOP THE SURFACE WAVE
ON THE FRONT AS IT MOVES INTO ALABAMA/MISSISSIPPI. THE WAVE WILL
DEEPEN FURTHER AS IT MOVES INTO THE LOWER PIEDMONT. CONFIDENCE ON
12Z CYCLE POPS COMPUTATIONS REMAINS HIGH SO WILL MAINTAIN INCREASE
OF POPS MORE OR LESS MONOTONICALLY WITH LATITUDE REACHING A LOCAL
MAXIMUM OVER THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY.
THEN THINGS TAPER OFF TO THE EAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT FOLLOWING THE
DEPARTING SURFACE LOW AS IT MOVES OFF EAST COAST OVER ONLSOW BAY.

AFTER FRONT DRAGS THROUGH THE WIND WILL TURN WEST NEAR SURFACE AND
THEN THINGS WILL DRY OUT IN DEEP LAYER THROUGH LATE WED. AS SAID BY
MID SHIFT A 500 MB LOW WILL MOVE INTO THE SOUTHWEST AND BECOME
ABSORBED BY A CANADIAN SYSTEM THAT MOVES INTO THE PLAINS SATURDAY.
AS THE PLAINS SYSTEM DEEPENS IT WILL SLOW ITS EASTWARD MOVEMENT
THROUGH MONDAY. AN ASSOCIATED SURFACE SYSTEM WILL MEANWHILE OCCLUDE
OVER THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND BRING A FRONT THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA SUNDAY NIGHT. CHANCE POPS RETURN TO THE FORECAST BY
SATURDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUE UNTIL POPS TAPER OFF MONDAY. /77

&&

.MARINE...HIGH EAST OF MARINE FORECAST AREA WILL DRIFT EAST AS A
TROUGH WITH AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA ON
WEDNESDAY. THUNDERSTORMS WILL STAY MOSTLY NORTH OF THE COAST ALONG
THE SEA BREEZE PENDING EASTWARD MOVING VORT MAX AND H5 SHORT WAVE.
EXPECT BETTER COVERAGE LATER TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY AS LONG WAVE
UPPER TROUGH MOVES EAST ACROSS THE AREA. ONSHORE WINDS WILL PICK UP A
BIT IN ADVANCE OF THE SURFACE TROUGH BUT SHOULD STAY BELOW SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS...UNTIL AFTER THE COLD FRONT WEDNESDAY NIGHT
INTO EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. A HIGH BUILDS INTO THE SOUTHERN STATES
THURSDAY THEN WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON WHILE TURNING
EAST AS THE HIGH MOVES OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST. RETURN FLOW WILL BE
BACK FOR THE START OF THE WEEKEND. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE
NEXT FRONT WILL BE MORE NUMEROUS CLOSER TO THE COAST DURING THE DAY
WEDNESDAY. /11

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...MOIST AIR INFLUX WILL KEEP AFTERNOON RELATIVE
HUMIDITY WELL ABOVE CRITICAL TODAY AND TOMORROW. A HIGH OVER THE
NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO WILL MOVE EAST AS A COLD FRONT STALLS NORTH
OF THE COAST. THE FRONT WILL MOVE OFFSHORE WEDNESDAY NIGHT BRINGING
WESTERLY WINDS IN ADVANCE OF IT DURING THE DAY WEDNESDAY. WIND WILL
BECOME NORTHWEST OVERNIGHT AS THE FRONT PASSES. SURFACE HIGH WILL
MOVE FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE EASTERN SEABOARD BY SATURDAY
BRINGING SOUTH WINDS FOR THE WEEKEND. DRY CONDITIONS BEHIND THE FRONT
ARE NOT CONSIDERED LOW ENOUGH TO WARRANT A FIRE WEATHER WATCH./77
