What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Birmingham, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 5, 3:51 PM CDT, 1 hour 47 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 5, 3:51 PM CDT, 1 hour 47 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
351 PM CDT SAT JUL 5 2008

.DISCUSSION...

DISCUSSION A BIT ABBREVIATED DUE TO ONGOING CONVECTION THIS
AFTERNOON. UPPER TROUGH AXIS AND A FEW DISTURBANCES WILL ROTATE
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH SUNDAY. IT STILL APPEARS THAT NO
AIRMASS CHANGE WILL TAKE PLACE AS MAIN COLD FRONT REMAINS NORTH OF
THE AREA. THEREFORE...CONVECTION THROUGH SUNDAY WILL BE ASSOCIATED
WITH UPPER FEATURES AS WELL AS SMALLER SCALE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES AND
DIFFERENTIAL HEATING. WITH THE ADDED UPWARD MOTION ASSOCIATED WITH
THE UPPER FEATURES COMBINED WITH THE MODERATE MICROBURST POTENTIAL...
A FEW STRONG TO MARGINALLY SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH 9 PM
THIS EVENING...AND AGAIN ON SUNDAY GENERALLY FROM 1 TO 9 PM. EVEN
WITH MID LEVEL WINDS INCREASING A BIT...OVERALL STORM ORGANIZATION
IS NOT EXPECTED AND MOST OF THE STRONG ACTIVITY WILL DIMINISH DUE TO
LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING.

GFS/WRF/ECMWF/GFS ENSEMBLE ALL HAVE A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT PICTURE OF
THE EVOLUTION THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. GFS DOES NOT
HAVE MUCH IN THE WAY OF MID TO UPPER FEATURES THAT THE OTHERS CARRY
WITH REGARD TO LIFT AND MOISTURE ENTERING THE PICTURE FROM THE
SOUTH. GFS HAS A NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH AFFECTING THE AREA BY
AROUND THURSDAY. WILL LEAN MORE TOWARD THE MIDDLE GROUND BETWEEN
SOLUTIONS...ECMWF/GFS ENSEMBLE.

WILL CONTINUE THE FORECAST TREND OF BRINGING IN OVERALL DRIER AIR
THROUGH TUESDAY. THIS KNOCKS THE RAIN CHANCES DOWN A BIT AREAWIDE...
MOST NOTABLY NORTH. FOR WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...VERY MOIST AND
UNSTABLE AIRMASS SETTLES IN ACROSS THE AREA BUT NO REAL TRIGGER
BESIDES HEATING. WILL KEEP A HIGHLY CLIMATOLOGICAL FEEL TO POPS AND
WILL HAVE TO MONITOR THOSE MODELS SOLUTIONS THAT BRING SOME
TRIGGER FROM THE NORTH OR SOUTH. GENERALLY...HIGHS AROUND 90 AND LOWS
AROUND 70.

.AVIATION...18Z TERMINAL FORECAST DISCUSSION.

ACTIVE CONVECTIVE DAY EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON...AS SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP AREAWIDE. INCLUDED VCTS AT ALL
TERMINALS AND WILL UPDATE AS NEEDED. BRIEF MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED AT A FEW TERMINALS. HOWEVER...VFR CONDITIONS WILL
PREVAIL. STRONGER STORMS WILL PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS. WET MICROBURST
POTENTIAL THIS AFTERNOON IS MODERATE.

WINDS AND CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY WILL DIMINISH AFTER SUNSET. AN
ISOLATED SHOWER OR TWO WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT
PERIOD.
