AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

1205 PM EDT TUE JUN 12 2007

...NUMEROUS STORMS THIS AFTERNOON WITH SOME POSSIBLY SEVERE...

UPDATE...HAVE ADDED SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH TO CWF AND ZFP.
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK WILL BE UPDATED SHORTLY. EXPECT CONVECTIVE
LINE APPROACHING NORTHERN CWA TO CONTINUE TO DROP SOUTHWARD INTO
MODERATELY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE. GREATEST THREAT CONTINUES TO BE
LOCALLY DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND HAIL...WITH A SMALL THREAT FOR AN
ISOLATED TORNADO MAINLY ALONG EASTERN PENINSULA WHERE BOUNDARY
INTERACTIONS MOST LIKELY. SKYWARN NET WILL BE ACTIVATED FROM KMLB BY
1700Z.

.DISCUSSION...TODAY/TONIGHT...VORTICITY LOBES WITHIN CYCLONIC FLOW
ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT ACROSS THE NORTHERN PENINSULA AND
ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. ATMOSPHERE WILL
BECOME MODERATELY UNSTABLE THIS AFTERNOON ALONG WITH STRENGTHENING
MID LEVEL WESTERLY FLOW. SOUTHWARD PROPAGATION OF OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES
AND DIURNAL DEVELOPMENT OF SEA/LAKE BREEZE BOUNDARIES WILL PROVIDE
ADDITIONAL FOCUS FOR CONVERGENCE/LIFT.

EXPECT SCATTERED STORM DEVELOPMENT ACROSS ECFL THIS AFTERNOON...
BECOMING NUMEROUS ACROSS NORTHERN HALF LATE AFTERNOON-EARLY EVENING.
EAST COAST SEA BREEZE SHOULD PROPAGATE SLOWLY INLAND ACROSS COASTAL
COUNTIES...BUT WITH WESTERLY STEERING FLOW...EXPECT INTERIOR
STORMS/OUTFLOWS AND GULF COAST BREEZE BOUNDARY TO INTERACT WITH THE
ATLANTIC SEA BREEZE OVER THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE PENINSULA AFTER
20Z...RESULTING IN GREATEST THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS. THIS
SCENARIO/TIMING IS CONSISTENT WITH RECENT LOCAL 2.5/8KM WRF MODEL.
DAMAGING DOWNBURST WINDS AND HAIL APPEAR TO THE BE THE GREATEST
THREATS...HOWEVER HIGH LOW-LEVEL HELICITY ALONG BOUNDARIES...
PRIMARILY NEAR THE EAST COAST...SUGGESTS A LOW TORNADO THREAT AS
WELL. CURRENT HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IN GOOD SHAPE. ZFP/CWF
INCLUDE POSSIBILITY OF STRONG STORMS...BUT MAY UPDATE AROUND MID DAY
TO EMPHASIZE SEVERE WIND/HAIL THREAT.

WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE SOME REDEVELOPMENT LATE TONIGHT...EVEN
THOUGH THE LOCAL AIR MASS WILL BE WELL WORKED OVER BY THEN...GIVEN
INCREASING LARGE SCALE ASCENT.

&&

.AVIATION...EXPECT NMRS IFR TSRA TO FORM AFT 18Z...AND LINGERING
WELL PAST 00Z. TAFS SHOW EARLIER START TIMES FOR INLAND AIRPORTS
GIVEN EXPECTED W-E MOVEMENT. STRONG WIND GUSTS (35KT+) AND HAIL
POSSIBLE WITH SOME STORMS TODAY...MOST LIKELY KDAB/KMLB/KVRB VCNTY
20Z-02Z.

&&

.MARINE...BOATING CONDITIONS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED TO REMAIN
BENIGN...EXCEPT IN THE VICINITY OF SCATTERED CONVECTION. STORMS
MOVING OFFSHORE WILL POSE A SIGNIFICANT THREAT WITH WINDS IN EXCESS
OF 35KT AND LOCALLY ROUGH SEAS. OTHERWISE...LIGHT SYNOPTIC FLOW
TYPICAL FOR THIS OF YEAR WILL GENERALLY RESULT IN 2-3 FT SEAS.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

...THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...

A SIGNIFICANT THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXISTS THIS
AFTERNOON ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA BRINING A MODERATE IMPACT TO
LOCAL RESIDENTS...BUSINESSES...AND VISITORS. AS A RESULT...A
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL OF EAST CENTRAL
FLORIDA AND THE ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS THROUGH 7 PM THIS EVENING.

SUFFICIENT MOISTURE COUPLED WITH THE AFTERNOON SEA AND LAKE
BREEZES AND AN APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL RESULT IN
NUMEROUS STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WITH FREQUENT TO EXCESSIVE
LIGHTNING. SEVERAL ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME SEVERE WITH LOCAL WIND
GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 58 MPH. ALTHOUGH A SIGNIFICANT THREAT IS
PRESENT FOR THE ENTIRE AREA...THE CHANCE FOR SEVERE WEATHER IS
GREATEST ACROSS VOLUSIA AND BREVARD COUNTIES. THE COLDER
TEMPERATURES ALOFT AND INCREASING MID LEVEL WINDS HAVE ALSO
ENHANCED THE THREAT FOR LARGE HAIL...AND ISOLATED BRIEF
TORNADOES OR WATERSPOUTS. MOVEMENT WILL BE SOUTHEAST AT 30 MPH.

PEOPLE ARE URGED TO REMAIN INFORMED OF THE LATEST WEATHER
SITUATION FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. BE READY TO TAKE ACTION IF A
WARNING IS ISSUED FOR YOUR LOCATION. THOSE WORKING OR RECREATING
OUTDOORS SHOULD PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE NORTHERN SKIES.

REMEMBER...LIGHTNING IS OFTEN THE FIRST HAZARD TO ARRIVE AND THE
LAST TO LEAVE AN AREA.

...FLOOD IMPACT...
GIVEN THE SERIES OF LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL THAT HAS OCCURRED OVER
PARTS OF THE AREA SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE MONTH...MANY
LOCATIONS ARE BECOMING MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO TEMPORARY
FLOODING...ESPECIALLY IN POORLY DRAINED LOW LYING AREAS. STORMS
TODAY WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING IN EXCESS IF TWO INCHES OF
RAINFALL IN ONE HOUR...WHICH COULD RESULT IN LOCALIZED FLOODING.

...MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE RAPIDLY SOUTHWARD DURING
THE EARLY AFTERNOON AND REACH THE COASTAL WATERS FROM FLAGLER
BEACH TO COCOA BEACH BY NOON. THE STORMS WILL PUSH SOUTH
THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON...WITH THE MORE INTENSE STORMS SLIDING
OFFSHORE TO IMPACT THE INTRA COASTALS AND NEAR SHORE WATERS. THIS
INCLUDES THE PORTS AND INLETS. LOCALLY HIGH SEAS...FREQUENT TO
EXCESSIVE LIGHTNING...AND HAIL ARE EXPECTED TODAY. THE GREATEST
THREAT FOR STORMS OVER THE ATLANTIC APPEARS TO BE NORTH OF
SEBASTIAN INLET. MOVEMENT WILL BE SOUTHEAST AT 25 TO 30 KNOTS.

...WATERSPOUT IMPACT...
A SIGNIFICANT THREAT EXISTS FOR BRIEF TORNADIC WATERSPOUTS ALONG
THE COASTAL ZONE...ESPECIALLY FROM FLAGLER BEACH TO SEBASTIAN INLET.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY.
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY...WITH
DECREASING COVERAGE OF STORMS FORECAST FROM THURSDAY INTO THIS
WEEKEND.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

FORMAL ACTIVATION IS LIKELY. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MAY
NEED A PCARS RADIO OPERATOR.
