Severe Thunderstorm Warning 231, NWS Tallahassee, FL

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
306 PM EDT FRI JUL 28 2006

.SYNOPSIS...THE BERMUDA RIDGE IS FIRMLY ENTRENCHED ACROSS THE GULF
STATES WITH ITS AXIS VERY NEAR THE GULF COAST. YET ANOTHER SCORCHER
IS IN PROGRESS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON WITH MOST
INLAND AREAS IN THE MID TO UPPER 90S AND RISING AT 2 PM EDT.
UNOFFICIALLY, IT HAS ALREADY REACHED 100 IN TOWN HERE IN THE CAPITAL
CITY, BUT NOT AT THE TLH ASOS. REGIONAL RADARS SHOW CONVECTION
FIRING WELL TO OUR NW IN NW AL, AND WELL TO THE SE OVER THE WRN FL
PENINSULA. ISOLATED TS HAVE ALSO DEVELOPED OVER IN SE GA AND NE FL,
AND THESE ARE HEADED OUR WAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SUN NIGHT.
WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE A FEW MORE STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS
THIS EVENING ACROSS OUR ERN ZONES LIKE LAST NIGHT. WE HAVE CHANCE
POPS THERE, WITH SLIGHT CHANCE FURTHER W. THE RIDGE AXIS WILL SLIP
SWD OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS AND THIS WOULD WARRANT HIGHER POPS AND
LOWER TEMPS. WE HAVE TRENDED IN THIS DIRECTION, BUT NOTE QUITE A
DIFFERENCE IN THE MET AND MAV GUIDANCE FOR SAT. WE FAVORED THE
WETTER MAV IN THE BLEND WHICH WAS CLOSER TO THE INHERITED FORECAST.
BY SUN, THE MODELS ARE IN BETTER AGREEMENT THAT THE RIDGE AXIS WILL
BE SOLIDLY S OF THE AREA, WITH A VORT LOBE SETTLING SWD ACROSS THE
AREA. LIKELY POPS WERE USED FOR MOST AREAS.

.LONG TERM...MON THROUGH FRI.
THE GFS AND ECMWF FORECAST THE SURFACE BERMUDA RIDGE TO REMAIN NEAR
OR JUST SOUTH OF THE REGION THROUGH THE PERIOD. BOTH MODELS MAINTAIN
SOMEWHAT LOWER 500 MB HEIGHTS OVER THE AREA AS THIS REGION WILL BE
WELL SOUTH OF A STRONG HIGH PRESSURE CENTER. THEY ALSO MAINTAIN AN
AREA OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE ACROSS THE REGION...THOUGH THE GFS
CONTINUES TO LOOK WETTER THAN THE ECMWF. THIS PATTERN SHOULD YIELD A
TYPICAL SUMMERTIME PATTERN...WITH SCATTERED MAINLY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING STORMS...AND NEAR-AVERAGE TEMPERATURES.

&&

.MARINE...WITH THE CESSATION OF THE SEA BREEZE, WELL SEE ONE MORE
NIGHT OF ELY FLOW BEFORE WINDS SETTLE INTO A PERSISTENT ONSHORE FLOW
PATTERN FOR THE NEXT 5 DAYS. WINDS AND SEAS WILL CONTINUE TO BE
ENHANCED WITHIN THE SEA BREEZE CIRCULATION EACH AFTERNOON WITHIN
ABOUT 10 NM OF THE COAST.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS FCST THRU THE PERIOD. ISOLD-WDLY SCT
SHRA/TS WILL DEVELOP THIS AFTN ACCOMPANIED BY POSSIBLE MVFR-IFR
VSBY/CIGS...MAINLY ALONG/E OF A LINE FROM VLD TO 40J...AS WELL AS
TWEB ROUTE 117. INCLUDED SCT050CB FOR TLH AND VLD UNTIL 02Z. EXPECT
VARIABLE WINDS AROUND 5 KTS...BECOMING SLY 5-10 KTS THIS AFTN. WINDS
WILL BECOME LIGHT/VARIABLE LATER THIS EVENING.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...THE RH DIPPED BELOW 40 PERCENT AS OF 18Z TODAY OVER
PARTS OF N FL, SO WE WILL GET MARGINAL DURATIONS IN SOME AREAS ONCE
AGAIN TODAY. THINK THE START IS LATE ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE ISSUING A
RED FLAG WARNING AT THIS TIME.

THIS OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTHEAST ALABAMA...NORTHWEST FLORIDA...SOUTH
CENTRAL GEORGIA...SOUTHWEST GEORGIA AND GULF OF MEXICO.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT...
THE WEATHER TODAY WILL BE MUCH LIKE THURSDAY...HOT WITH ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. ON THURSDAY
THERE WERE REPORTS OF LARGE HAIL AND WIND DAMAGE ACROSS PORTIONS
OF NORTH FLORIDA AND SOUTH GEORGIA AS SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOPED ALONG THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE AND MOVED TOWARD THE
WEST IN THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THIS WILL LIKELY OCCUR
AGAIN TODAY...WITH THE MAIN THREAT FOR LARGE HAIL AND WIND DAMAGE
NEAR AND EAST OF A LINE FROM TALLAHASSEE FLORIDA...TO LAKELAND
GEORGIA. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THIS AREA WILL TEND TO BE
MORE NUMEROUS THAN ELSEWHERE...WHERE RAIN CHANCES WILL ONLY BE IN
THE 20 TO 30 PERCENT RANGE. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL ONCE AGAIN
REACH 95 TO 99 DEGREES. THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY WILL BE RATHER LOW
THIS AFTERNOON SO THE HEAT INDEX WILL NOT BE MUCH HIGHER THAN THE
ACTUAL AIR TEMPERATURE. HOWEVER...NORMAL PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE
TAKEN TO GUARD AGAINST HEAT STRESS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...
RAIN CHANCES WILL INCREASE THIS WEEKEND AS AN UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE DEVELOPS OVER THE AREA AND INTERACTS WITH A MOIST
UNSTABLE AIRMASS. RAIN CHANCES WILL GRADUALLY RETURN TO NORMAL
NEXT WEEK. WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER OR FLOODING IS NOT
EXPECTED...BUT A FEW STORMS COULD BRIEFLY APPROACH SEVERE LEVELS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE REQUESTED LATER TODAY IF STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS BEGIN TO FORM LATE IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.
