AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
300 PM EDT SUN JUL 22 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
17Z WATER VAPOR AND H4 RUC ANALYSIS SHOW A VERY AMPLIFIED PATTERN
ACROSS THE CONUS WITH A HUGE DOMINANT RIDGE ACROSS THE WESTERN
2/3RDS OF COUNTY AND A DEEP TROUGH ALONG THE EAST COAST ALL THE WAY
TO THE NORTHEAST GULF. THE DEEP TROUGH AND NOW CLOSED LOW OVER THE
MID-ATLANTIC STATES IS VERY UNUSUAL FOR LATE JULY AND IS MORE
REMINISCENT OF A MID TO LATE SPRING PATTERN.

AT THE SURFACE WE SEE THE REMNANTS OF AN OLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY
STALLED ACROSS NORTH-CENTRAL FLORIDA WESTWARD INTO OUR COASTAL
WATERS AND THEN ARCHING BACK INTO SOUTHERN AL. ONCE AGAIN HAVING A
FRONT/BOUNDARY SLIP INTO AND THEN SOUTH OF THE GULF COAST IN LATE
JULY IS VERY RARE. STRONG CONTINENTAL HIGH PRESSURE WELL TO THE
NORTH IS TRYING TO NOSE INTO THE FORECAST AREA BEHIND THE BOUNDARY
BUT HAS MADE JUST ABOUT AS MUCH PROGRESS SOUTH AS IS GOING TO
HAPPEN.

WITH THE UPPER TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED MID LEVEL COOL POOL IN
PLACE...TEMPERATURES THIS AFTERNOON ARE A BIT COOLER THAN HAS BEEN
SEEN OVER THE PAST WEEK WITH HIGHS STRUGGLING INTO THE LOWER 90S.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE
SEA-BREEZE AND ALSO MIGRATED INTO SOUTH-CENTRAL GA AND THE FLORIDA
BIG BEND FROM THE EAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)...

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE SCATTERED AROUND THE AREA INTO
THE EVENING HOURS. LOCAL WORKSTATION WRF HAS ACTUALLY DONE A VERY
GOOD JOB WITH THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY THUS FAR TODAY. THE LATEST RUN
HAS THE STORMS CONTINUING WELL INTO THE EVENING...ENDING LAST OVER
THE WESTERN BIG BEND AND EASTERN PANHANDLE TOWARD MIDNIGHT.

MID/UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL REMAIN GENERALLY IN PLACE THROUGH THE
SHORT TERM WITH THE CLOSED CONTOUR OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES
RETROGRADING SLOWLY WEST TOWARD THE TENNESSEE OR OHIO VALLEYS. WEAK
BOUNDARY/SURFACE TROUGH JUST TO OUR SOUTH IS FORECAST BY NAM/GFS TO
REMAIN ACROSS THE NORTH-CENTRAL FLORIDA PENINSULA...BUT BECOME MORE
SOUTHEAST TO NORTHWEST ORIENTED TO OUR WEST ACROSS THE WESTERN
FLORIDA PANHANDLE AND CENTRAL ALABAMA THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON. MAV
GUIDANCE IS CERTAINLY THE WETTER SOLUTION FOR MONDAY ACROSS A LARGE
PORTION OF THE AREA WHILE MET/FWC ARE QUITE DRY. MONDAY LOOKS TO BE
A MIX OF A TYPE 2 AND TYPE 6 DAYS WITH GENERAL E-SE FLOW BETWEEN
6-10KTS. THESE FLOWS WILL TEND TO FAVOR FLORIDA ZONES UP INTO
SOUTHEAST ALABAMA FOR HIGHEST POPS. WOULD SAY BASED ON PATTERN THAT
THE MAV IS A BIT HIGH AND THE MET/FWC A BIT LOW ON THEIR POPS. FOR
THIS REASON WILL RUN A BLEND OF GUIDANCE WITH A LEAN TOWARD THE
WETTER MAV GUIDANCE ACROSS THE WESTERN CWA. LEANING TOWARD THE MAV
GUIDANCE HERE SINCE THE SURFACE TROUGH CLOSEST TO OUR WESTERN ZONES
IS LIKELY TO FOCUS LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE AND CONVECTION. CONVECTION
MAY ALSO BE SLIGHTLY SUPPRESSED IN THE EAST BY DRIER LOW LEVEL
CONDITIONS. MAV GUIDANCE IS SHOWING SURFACE DEWPOINTS FALLING INTO
THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S ACROSS INLAND PORTIONS OF GA AND THE
FLORIDA BIG BEND BY MID AFTERNOON. THIS SHOULD HELP KEEP INSTABILITY
DOWN. IN ADDITION WE MAY BEGIN TO FLIRT WITH CRITICAL FIRE WX
CONDITIONS ACROSS THE INLAND BIG BEND IF THESE DEWPOINTS VERIFY.
WITH UPPER TROUGH STILL OVERHEAD THE COOL POOL ASSOCIATED WITH IT
WILL HAVE SOME IMPACT ON OUR TEMPS. WILL RUN A MOS BLEND HERE AS
WELL WHICH GIVES TEMPERATURES A COUPLE OF DEGREES BELOW CLIMO IN THE
89-92 RANGE.

SURFACE TROUGH TO OUR SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST BEGINS TO MOVE BACK NORTH
DURING MONDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY TUESDAY TIME FRAME. THE GFS IS A BIT
FASTER WITH THIS MOVEMENT THAN THE NAM...HOWEVER THE GENERAL PATTERN
IS SIMILAR. WITH THE SURFACE TROUGH BACK IN THE VICINITY...FORECAST
POPS ARE ACTUALLY REALLY HIGH FOR THE OVERNIGHT TIME FRAME. WITH THE
DIFFERENCES IN TIMING BETWEEN MODELS WILL NOT GO QUITE AS HIGH AS
THE MAV GUIDANCE WHICH SHOWS 40%+ IN SPOTS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER WILL CERTAINLY NOT LET POPS DROP OFF TO
SILENT AND WILL LIKELY KEEP SLIGHT CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE NORTH WITH
LOW END CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST BIG BEND. WHERE
SHOWERS/STORMS MAY BECOME RATHER NUMEROUS DURING THE LATE NIGHT
HOURS INTO EARLY TUESDAY IS ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS CLOSEST TO THE
TROUGH AND WHERE CONVECTION IS DIURNALLY FAVORED.

TUESDAY STILL LOOKS TO BECOME INCREASINGLY ACTIVE IN TERMS OF
CONVECTION. WITH THE SURFACE TROUGH NOW ALMOST DIRECTLY OVERHEAD THE
FLOW WILL BECOME RATHER LIGHT IN THE LOWER LEVELS RESULTING IN THE
REGIME 1 TYPE DAY. THIS TYPE OF PATTERN IS TYPICALLY QUITE ACTIVE
40-50% COVERAGE ACROSS THE FLORIDA ZONES WITH SLIGHTLY LOWER POPS TO
THE NORTH. HOWEVER WITH A SYNOPTIC SURFACE TROUGH ACROSS THE
AREA...WILL KEEP POPS A BIT MORE UNIFORM FROM NORTH TO SOUTH. IN
FACT WITH THE SURFACE BOUNDARY/SEA-BREEZE FORMATION AND GENERAL
SYNOPTIC FLOW THROUGH A DEEP LAYER ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER
TROUGH...CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY MAY BE HIGHER THAN FORECAST AND WOULD
NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE THESE POPS RISE IN FUTURE FORECASTS.
MODIFIED GFS FCST SOUNDING FOR TUESDAY AFTERNOON FOR SURFACE PROFILE
OF 90/70F IS SHOWING AROUND 2700 J/KG OF SURFACE BASED CAPE AND PW
VALUES RUNNING NEAR CLIMO. THESE PARAMETERS ARE PLENTY FOR ACTIVE
CONVECTION AND THE HIGHER CAPE IS POSSIBLY SUPPORTIVE OF A FEW
STRONG/SEVERE STORMS. WILL BE RUNNING HIGH TEMPERATURES CLOSER TO
THE WARMER MET NUMBERS AS THE MAV IS LIKELY FEELING THE EFFECTS OF
ENHANCED CONVECTION RESULTING IN QUITE COOL TEMPS. THIS TIME OF
YEAR IF CONVECTION IS DELAYED BY EVEN AN HOUR OR TWO FROM FORECAST
OR ENDS UP BEING LESS IN COVERAGE...TEMPERATURE CAN RISE QUITE A BIT
ABOVE GUIDANCE. UNTIL A MORE CERTAIN HIGHER POP IS NEEDED WOULD NOT
FEEL COMFORTABLE KEEPING HIGHS IN THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 80S.

LOOKING AT FAIRLY ACTIVE CONVECTION INTO THE LATER EVENING HOURS
TUESDAY BEFORE COVERAGE BEGINS TO DIMINISH AFTER MIDNIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM...
UPPER LOW REMAINS CLOSED OVER THE OHIO VALLEY AND BEGINS TO
RETROGRADE INTO THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY BY THURSDAY. WITH
SOUTHERLY FLOW REMAINING IN PLACE FOR US...POPS WILL CONTINUE TO BE
NEAR CLIMATOLOGY OR SLIGHTLY HIGHER. BY THURSDAY NIGHT THE UPPER LOW
DROPS INTO THE MID SOUTH AND BEGINS TO APPROACH OUR REGION ON
FRIDAY. A SERIES OF IMPULSES WILL ROUND THE BASE OF THE LOW AND
COMBINE WITH ACTIVE SEA BREEZES TO YIELD DECENT COVERAGE OF STORMS
BOTH FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AFTERNOONS. HIGH POPS CHANCES WILL REMAIN
IN THE FORECAST THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS THE UPPER LOW REMAINS PARKED
ACROSS THE REGION. FOLLOWED CLOSE TO THE MEX GUIDANCE FOR
TEMPS...WHICH END UP BEING JUST SLIGHTLY BELOW CLIMO BASED ON
EXPECTED CLOUD COVER AND PRECIP.

&&

.AVIATION...
CONVECTION POPPING UP THIS AFTERNOON ALONG THE EDGES OF THE CWA.
COVERAGE WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON MAINLY OVER
FLORIDA TERMINALS AND KVLD. HAVE ADDED TEMPO FOR THE AFTERNOON FOR
THESE SITES. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITION EXPECTED OVERNIGHT UNTIL LATE
WHEN MAY SEE SOME MINOR RESTRICTIONS TO MVFR FROM FOG.

&&

.MARINE...
WEAK PRESSURE GRADIENT ASSOCIATED WITH BROAD SURFACE BOUNDARY OVER
THE COASTAL WATERS IS FORECAST TO TIGHTEN OVERNIGHT WITH EASTERLY
FLOW INCREASING TO JUST UNDER CAUTION LEVELS FROM EAST TO WEST FOR
A PERIOD AFTER MIDNIGHT. FLOW WILL BECOME SOUTHEAST ON MONDAY AND
CONTINUE INTO EARLY TUESDAY BETWEEN HIGH PRESSURE TO THE NORTHEAST
AND A SURFACE TROUGH TO THE SOUTH AND WEST. WITH A WEAK SURFACE
TROUGH IN THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY TUESDAY...SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME QUITE NUMEROUS OVER THE WATERS.
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE THEN BUILDS ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD KEEPING WINDS LIGHT FROM THE SOUTH OR
SOUTHWEST.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
A BRIEF BOUT OF DRIER AIR FOR MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING
WILL COMBINE WITH TEMPERATURES INTO THE LOWER 90S TO PRODUCE A
PERIOD OF NEAR CRITICAL RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES ACROSS PORTIONS OF
THE INLAND FLORIDA BIG BEND. DISPERSION INDICES ARE ALSO EXPECTED TO
BE RATHER HIGH RESULTING IN THE ISSUANCE OF A FIRE WX WATCH FOR
THESE AREAS. INCREASING MOISTURE AND GREATER RAIN CHANCES WILL KEEP
FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ABOVE CRITICAL LEVELS MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH
AT LEAST THE MIDDLE PART OF THE WEEK.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTHEAST ALABAMA...
SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL GEORGIA...AND THE FLORIDA BIG BEND
AND PANHANDLE...AND ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT...
A COLD FRONT WILL STALL ACROSS THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO THIS
AFTERNOON. THIS COLD FRONT WILL HELP INITIATE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY IN NORTH FLORIDA. WHILE
WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER IS NOT ANTICIPATED AT THIS TIME...A FEW
OF THESE STORMS COULD BECOME STRONG WITH GUSTY WINDS...FREQUENT
CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTING AND SMALL HAIL. SOME STORMS COULD ALSO
PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WHICH COULD CAUSE MINOR FLOODING IN
POOR DRAINAGE AREAS.

THERE IS ALSO A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS TODAY ALONG THE
FLORIDA BIG BEND AND PANHANDLE COASTS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...
DRIER AIR WILL MOVE OVER THE REGION ON MONDAY SUPPRESSING AFTERNOON
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. MOISTURE LEVELS WILL BEGIN TO
INCREASE ON TUESDAY AS SOUTHERLY FLOW RETURNS TO THE REGION FOR
THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. FROM TUESDAY INTO THE WEEKEND...SCATTERED
AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP. ANY
OF THESE STORMS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME STRONG AND
PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND FREQUENT CLOUD TO
GROUND LIGHTNING.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED TODAY.
