AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL
430 AM EDT THU OCT 30 2008

.DISCUSSION...TODAY/TONIGHT...SURFACE HIGH OVER THE SE U.S. BUILD TO
THE CAROLINAS OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. LIGHT NW/N WINDS EARLY TODAY
WILL BECOME NE BY MID DAY THEN BEGIN TO STRENGTHEN THIS AFTERNOON AS
THE GRADIENT STARTS TO TIGHTEN. THE VERY DRY AIRMASS INITIALLY WILL
TAKE SOME TIME TO MOISTEN...SO NO MARINE/COASTAL SHOWERS EXPECTED
QUITE YET. HOWEVER...TEMPS AND HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL BEGIN TO
REBOUND...WITH SOME AFTERNOON MINIMAL CLOUDINESS...ESPECIALLY NEAR
THE COAST. MAX TEMPS STILL 5-10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL THIS
AFTERNOON...WITH MINS ABOUT 5 BELOW TONIGHT...EXCEPT CLOSE TO NORMAL
ALONG SE COAST.

FRI-MON...SURFACE HIGH CENTERED NORTH OF THE STATE WILL SUPPORT A
LONG FETCH OF NORTHEAST TO EAST LOW-LEVEL FLOW. THUS...A STEADY
REMOISTENING OF THE LOCAL ATMOSPHERE WILL ENSUE. IN ADDITION...
BOTH LATEST GFS AND ECMWF SHOW CUT-OFF UPPER LOW DEVELOPING OVER
THE LOWER MS VALLEY AND DROPPING S/SE INTO THE EASTERN GULF OF
MEXICO. AS A RESULT...HAVE DEPICTED INCREASING CLOUDS THIS WEEKEND
WITH INCREASING RAIN CHANCES DUE TO THE MOIST ONSHORE FLOW AND
SUPPORT ALOFT. AT THIS TIME...IT APPEARS RAIN CHANCES WILL BE
HIGHEST SUNDAY WITH 50% NORTH AND 30% SOUTH. THROUGHOUT THIS
PERIOD...THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR A FEW CONVERGENT BANDS TO SET UP
AND BRING LOCALLY HEAVY AND PERSISTENT RAINS TO PORTIONS OF THE
COAST. THE ONSHORE FLOW WILL KEEP LOW TEMPS MILD NEAR THE
COAST...IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S...WHILE INCREASING CLOUD COVER
WILL KEEP MAX TEMPS A COUPLE DEGREES BELOW NORMAL.

TUE-WED...BOTH GFS AND ECMWF HAVE THE UPPER LOW SHIFTING NORTHEAST
ACROSS THE FLORIDA PENINSULA WITH SFC LOW DEVELOPMENT EAST OF THE
STATE IN THE ATLC. THERE IS SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES REGARDING
PLACEMENT OF THE SFC LOW BETWEEN THE 2 MODELS...AND THIS HAS AN
EFFECT ON WIND DIRECTION AND MOISTURE LEVELS. GFS IS MUCH CLOSER
TO THE CAROLINA COAST...RESULTING IN A BACKING OF THE LOW LEVEL
FLOW AND ADVECTION OF DRIER AIR DOWN THE PENINSULA LOWERING RAIN
CHANCES. THE ECMWF DEVELOPS THE LOW MUCH FARTHER OFFSHORE WHICH
KEEPS A MORE MOIST N/NE FLOW ACROSS THE AREA. FOR CONTINUITY...
WILL STICK WITH THE GFS SOLUTION AND CONTINUE THE PREVIOUS
FORECAST OF KEEPING THIS PERIOD DRY.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR TODAY/TONIGHT. LIGHT NW/N WINDS WILL BECOME NE EARLY
TODAY AND INCREASE 12-14KT THIS AFTERNOON.

&&

.MARINE...WINDS WILL QUICKLY VEER TO NE THIS MORNING THEN INCREASE
BY SCA LEVELS LATE AFTERNOON OFFSHORE AND SCEC NEARSHORE. BUILDING
SEAS WILL FOLLOW THIS EVENING.

PERSISTENT NE-E FLOW WILL KEEP SEAS OFFSHORE AROUND 7 FT SO SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT BEYOND 20NM THRU AT LEAST SAT.
THIS COULD BE EXTENDED IN TIME AS LARGER CONTINENTAL RIDGE BUILDS
DOWN THE EASTERN SEABOARD AND LCL PGRAD TIGHTENS LATER IN THE
WEEKEND. NEARSHORE WATERS WILL HAVE AT LEAST A CAUTION HEADLINE
FOR 4-6 FT SEAS. MAY EVENTUALLY NEED TO EXPAND ADVISORY FOR
PORTIONS OF THE NEARSHORE WATERS THAT INCLUDE THE GULF STREAM.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...ONSHORE VEERING WINDS WILL RETURN HIGHER MOISTURE
LEVELS THIS AFTERNOON...EVEN AS MAX TEMPS CLIMB. MIN RH VALUES OVER
THE INTERIOR COUNTIES LIKELY TO REACH 40 TO 45 PERCENT...WITH NE
WINDS OF 10 TO 15 MPH. NO LOW RH CONCERNS FRI AND CONTINUING
THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.CLIMATE...MIN TEMPS EARLY THIS MORNING CURRENTLY WITHIN 2 DEGREES
OF DAILY RECORD AT MCO AND VRB AND MIGHT BE TIED WITHIN NEXT FEW
HOURS.
