.SYNOPSIS...A WEAK STALLED BOUNDARY POSSIBLE IN THE ANALYSIS OVER N
FL...WITH A WEAK SURFACE LOW OFF THE NE TX COAST. STILL EXPECTING
THE UPPER SHORTWAVE...NOT IN THE SE PLAINS...TO MOVE EAST & DEEPEN
OVER THE LOWER MS VALLEY. SURFACE DEWPOINT TEMPS HAVE REBOUNDED INTO
THE LOWER 60S OVER N FL...UPPER 50S NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY. WE ARE
SEEING SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER THIS AFTERNOON & HEATING WILL
ADD TO THE UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE. CURRENT LAPS DATA HAS THE MOST
UNSTABLE AIR OVER THE COASTAL WATERS. THEREFORE...UNTIL THE UPPER
ENERGY ASSOCIATED WITH THE SHORTWAVE OVER THE SE PLAINS REACHES N
FL...THEN CONVECTION WILL BREAK OUT. LOW LEVEL JET FORECAST IS
MARGINAL...BUT GOOD UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE WILL HELP. SPC DAY ONE
HAS THE ENTIRE AREA IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS...&
THIS CONTINUES TO LOOK GOOD. SHOULD SEE ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE
LATE THIS AFTERNOON TO EVENING. MAIN THREAT SHOULD BE DAMAGING
WINDS...HAIL...& ISOLATED TORNADOES. WITH THURSDAYS HEAVY
RAIN...LOCALIZED FLOODING POTENTIAL WILL EXIST.
&&
.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)...
AS STATED...CONVECTION THIS EVENING SHOULD BE MAXIMIZED FROM AROUND
22Z TO 06Z...AS THE MAIN SURGE OF UPPER DYNAMICS MOVES ACROSS THE
CWA. THE SURFACE LOW BY 06Z SATURDAY IS FORECAST TO BE IN THE
EASTERN TN VALLEY...WITH A COLD FRONT SOUTH TO THE FL PANHANDLE. BY
12Z SATURDAY...THE COLD FRONT SHOULD HAVE PUSHED TO NEAR
KGVN...TAKING MUCH OF THE CONVECTION WITH IT. WILL LEAVE A SMALL
CHANCE OF RAIN IN THE FORECAST EARLY SATURDAY...THEN BREAKING OUT
FROM NOON ON. NW FLOW SHOULD MIX THINGS QUICKLY AS WELL AS THE COLD
AIR ADVECTION. SOME STRATA-CU WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE AREA UNTIL
SUNSET. BREEZY CONDITIONS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE SATURDAY BEHIND THE
FRONT. THE BECOMING CLEAR & COLD. TEMPS LOWER TO AROUND 30 WITH SOME
WIND KEEPING TEMPS UP A BIT...ABOVE FREEZING ALONG THE COAST. SUNNY
& COOL FOR SUNDAY. TEMPS A BIT BELOW NORMAL.
.LONG TERM (MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)...
MEAN LONG WAVE TROUGH SETTLES OVER THE EASTERN U.S. A BIT BELOW
NORMAL TEMPS WILL BE EXPECTED. A FAST MOVING SYSTEM ON MONDAY WILL
BRING SOME CLOUDS & A SMALL CHANCE OF RAIN. ALSO A REINFORCING SHOT
OF COOL AIR FILTERS IN FOR TUESDAY TO WEDNESDAY...AS A SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE SETTLES TO THE SE U.S. GENERALLY DRY THROUGH THURSDAY. THEN
THE NEXT FAST MOVING SYSTEM & COLD FRONT ON FRIDAY...WITH A SMALL
CHANCE OF RAIN.
&&
.MARINE...SCEC ON GOING WITH WIND & SEAS. STILL LOOKS TO INCREASE
TONIGHT AHEAD OF & BEHIND THE COLD FRONT TO SCA LEVELS. THIS SHOULD
LAST THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...ESPECIALLY IN THE WELL OFFSHORE
WATERS...THEN LOWERING TO SCEC ON SUNDAY. LOWERING BELOW SCEC LATER
SUNDAY TO MONDAY...THEN BACK TO SCEC AS THE MONDAY SYSTEM MOVES
THROUGH.

PATCHY FOG WILL LIFT THIS MORNING. THEN...ANOTHER STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL DEVELOP IN LOUISIANA AND MOVE RAPIDLY NORTHEAST DRAGGING A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA LATER TONIGHT.

FREQUENT AND DANGEROUS CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING WILL BE SEEN IN MANY OF THESE THUNDERSTORMS. SOME OF THE STRONGEST STORMS MAY PRODUCE SMALL HAIL. ALTHOUGH MARINE WINDS AND SEAS WILL DECREASE THIS MORNING...THEY WILL BE HIGHER WITH FREQUENT GUSTS NEAR ANY STORMS. AS THE FRONT EXITS FROM WEST TO EAST LATE TONIGHT...OFFSHORE WINDS AND SEAS WILL RAPIDLY INCREASE CREATING LIKELY SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA.
