AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
150 PM EDT THU MAY 11 2006

.SYNOPSIS...CLEARING SKIES ARE ON THE WAY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...AS
THE STRONG LATE SEASON COLD FRONT CONTINUES ITS PUSH THROUGH THE
CWA. THE LARGE AREA OF SHOWERS AND STRATIFORM RAIN ALONG AND OUT
AHEAD OF IT IS STEADILY DISSIPATING...WITH ALL BUT THE EXTREME SE
BIG BEND AND ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS STILL WITH LOW POPS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...AFTER 7 CONSECUTIVE DAYS OF MEASURABLE RAIN AT THE
TALLAHASSEE REGIONAL AIRPORT...A BRIEF RESPITE IS FINALLY IN STORE
FOR THE AREA DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. THE SPRAWLING AND
UNSEASONABLY COLD UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE GREAT LAKES WHICH HELPED
DRIVE THE COLD FRONT THROUGH THE CWA TODAY...WILL MOVE VERY LITTLE
DURING THE NEXT 24-48 HRS...ALLOWING COOLER AND DRIER AIR TO ADVECT
IN ACROSS THE REGION ON DEEP LAYER NW FLOW. AS THE WINDS DROP OFF
TONIGHT...LOW TEMPS COULD REACH THE UPPER 40S TO LOWER 50S OVER THE
INTERIOR...AND MID TO UPPER 50S ALONG THE COAST. WE SHOULD SEE A
REPEAT PERFORMANCE ON FRIDAY NIGHT...AFTER A SUNNY AND SEASONABLY
COOL DAY ON FRIDAY (UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S). ON SATURDAY...THE
MASSIVE UPPER LOW WILL BEGIN TO SINK SOUTHWARD AND HELP DRIVE A
SECOND COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION ON SUNDAY...WITH OUR NEXT
CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS AT THAT TIME. ITS A BIT EARLY TO
DISCUSS THE PROSPECTS FOR SEVERE WEATHER AT THIS TIME...AS RETURN
FLOW MOISTURE WILL PLAY THE KEY ROLE.

&&

.LONG TERM...THE FRONT EXITS LATE SUNDAY AND TROF MOVES OFFSHORE
REPLACED BY RIDGE WITH IMPROVING WX INTO MID-WORK WEEK. STUBBORN
UPPER LOW FINALLY EJECTS OUT INTO THE ATLANTIC ON WEDNESDAY ALLOWING
FOR SHALLOW RIDGING TO BUILD INTO THE REGION.

&&

.MARINE...IT APPEARS TO BE A VERY CLOSE CALL AS TO WHETHER THE FCST
SCA CONDITIONS WILL BE REALIZED ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS THIS
AFTERNOON OR EVENING...BUT AM HESITANT TO TAKE IT DOWN AT THIS POINT
WITH A PERIOD OF 20KT WINDS STILL EVIDENT IN THE 12 UTC GFS. MAY
RECONSIDER SHOULD MORE EVIDENCE MOUNT CLOSER TO ISSUANCE TIME.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...WITH THE DRIER AIR AND FAIRLY BREEZY WINDS...RED
FLAG CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO QUICKLY RETURN TO THE FL BIG BEND
AND PANHANDLE ON FRIDAY. WILL ALSO INITIATE A WATCH FOR THE BIG BEND
ON SATURDAY...AS RETURN FLOW MOISTURE SHOULD RESULT IN HIGHER RHS
ACROSS THE PANHANDLE.

&&

.AVIATION...COLD FRONT ABOUT HALFWAY ACROSS CWA WITH CLEARING SKIES
FOLLOWING. BEHIND FRONT...NORTHWEST WINDS ARE GUSTING TO 20 TO 25
KTS.  AHEAD OF THE FRONT...THERE IS MOSTLY MVFR CIGS WITH SOME
EMBEDDED IFR CIGS/VSBYS WITH LOW CLOUDS ALONG WITH RAIN AND DRIZZLE.
MOST STATIONS WILL BE VFR BY LATE AFTERNOON...AND WILL REMAIN THAT
WAY FOR NEXT FEW DAYS.
