AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
415 AM CDT WED MAR 19 2008

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)...OUR FORECAST AREA IS IN BETWEEN
2 MAIN SYNOPTIC PLAYERS OVER THE SOUTHERN STATES.  THE FIRST IS THE
PERSISTENT UPPER LOW OVER CENTRAL TEXAS...AND THE SECOND IS THE
LARGESCALE UPPER TROUGH AND TRAIN OF SHORTWAVES EXTENDING DOWN THE
EASTERN SEABOARD INTO GEORGIA.  THE DEEP MOISTURE FEED AND
DYNAMICALLY FAVORED UPPER DIFFLUENT REGION FOR STORMS TO THE EAST OF
THE TEXAS LOW WILL AGAIN BE TO THE WEST OF OUR AREA OVER THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF LOUISIANA.  TO THE NORTHEAST...WE SEE A WELL
DEFINED SHORTWAVE TRACKING SOUTHEAST OUT OF EASTERN TENNESEE THAT
WILL LIKELY SEND A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX SOUTH INTO GEORGIA TODAY.  THE
GEORGIA CONVECTIVE COMPLEX MAY SEND AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY SOUTHWEST
INTO OUR NORTHEASTERN ZONES THIS AFTERNOON...BUT RIGHT NOW ALL OF
THE GUIDANCE POINTS TO THE GREATER COVERAGES OF STORMS STAYING WEST
AND NORTHEAST OF OUR AREA. WE WILL KEEP SCATTERED AFTERNOON
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST FOR MOST LOCATIONS WITH THE EXCEPTION
OF THE FAR SOUTHWEST AREAS CLOSER TO THE DEEP MOISTURE AND DYNAMIC
LIFT EAST OF THE TEXAS LOW.

THE 06Z RUC40 MODEL SOUNDINGS CENTERED OVER OUR AREA AROUND 18Z
TODAY SUGGEST MLCAPES AROUND 1800 J/KG...PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES
AROUND 1.9 INCHES...SFC TO FREEZING LEVEL LAPSE RATES 6.7 C/KM...AND
SFC TO 900 MB MEAN MIXING RATIOS AROUND 13.95 G/KG.  THIS ALL
EQUATES ROUGHLY TO A LOW RISK OF WET MICROBURSTS FOR OUR AREA
TODAY.

THE CONVECTION SHOULD DIE OFF BY 04Z TONIGHT.  WENT PRETTY MUCH WITH
THE HPC QPF WITH A FEW ADJUSTMENTS IN THE WEST.  WE ALSO ADJUSTED
THE MAV MOS GUIDANCE UP A FEW DEGREES (CLOSER TO THE MET) GIVEN WE
WENT A FEW POINTS LOWER ON POPS AND RAIN COVERAGES IN COMPARISON TO
THE GFS OVER OUR AREA.  /05

&&

.LONG TERM...BY 12Z THU MID TO UPPER TROF AXIS IS WELL EAST OF THE
CWFA WITH ELONGATED SFC RIDGE BUILDING OVER EASTERN TX AND SOUTH
LA. SFC HIGH WILL SHIFT NE TO THE TN RIVER VALLEY BY 06Z FRI WITH
MOSTLY A ZONAL FLOW ALOFT OVER MUCH OF THE SE CONUS BY LATE FRI INTO
SAT. NEXT MID LEVEL TROF MOVES EAST ACROSS THE MID TO UPPER MS RIVER
VALLEY DURING THE DAY ON SAT WITH MAINLY A ZONAL FLOW IN THE MID TO
UPPER LEVELS FURTHER SOUTH. AS SHORT WAVE MOVES EAST TO THE MID
ATLANTIC COAST EXPECT A WEAK COOL FRONT TO PUSH SOUTH ACROSS THE
CWFA BY EARLY SUN GIVING WAY TO SLIGHTLY COOLER/DRIER CONDITIONS
THROUGH EARLY SUNDAY NIGHT. TO THE WEST DEEPENING MID TO UPPER TROF
OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS BEGINS TO SHIFT EASTWARD...PROGGED TO MOVE
ACROSS THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF STATES AND SE CONUS DURING THE DAY ON
MONDAY. WITH THIS...BELIEVE MOISTURE RETURN WILL BE LIMITED OUT
AHEAD OF THIS NEXT SYSTEM LEADING ME TO STAY WITH ONLY A SLIGHT
CHANCE OF SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY LATE SUN NIGHT THROUGH
ABOUT MIDDAY MON. AS THIS SYSTEM EXITS TO THE EAST SFC RIDGE BUILDS
OVER MUCH OF THE CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION AND SE CONUS INCLUDING
THE NORTHERN GULF THROUGH THU AFTERNOON NEXT WEEK. LATE IN THE WEEK
LATEST PHYSICAL SOLUTION FROM THE GFS DEPICTS A WEAK IMPULSE MOVING
NORTHWARD WEST OF THE SFC RIDGE TO THE EAST...GIVING WAY TO
INCREASED MOISTURE AND LIFT TO THE CWFA EARLY FRI MORNING. WILL
CONTINUE TO USE THE CURRENT 00Z MEXMOS FOR TEMPS IN THE EXTENDED
GRIDS. /32

&&

.MARINE...HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE EASTERN GULMEX WILL SHIFT SLOWLY
SOUTH THROUGH SUNDAY...WITH A LIGHT NOCTURNAL FLOW GOING MORE
SOUTHWESTERLY AND INCREASING TO NEAR 15 KTS NEAR SHORE IN THE
AFTERNOON HOURS.  WE STALL THE FRONT INLAND AND NO LONGER EXPECT IT
TO MAKE IT DOWN OVER THE COASTAL WATERS...BUT WE STILL KEEP A SHORT
PERIOD OF NORTHWESTERLY WINDS IN FOR EARLY TUESDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS GRADUALLY WEST ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND WESTERN GULFMEX. /05

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...HAVE UPDATED THE FIRE WEATHER WATCH TO A RED FLAG
WARNING FOR THU DUE TO CRITICALLY LOW AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITIES.
AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL HAVE TO BE CLOSELY MONITORED
THROUGH EARLY NEXT. /32

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST
MISSISSIPPI...SOUTH ALABAMA...THE WESTERN FLORIDA PANHANDLE...AND
THE ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS OF ALABAMA AND NORTHWEST FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS MOVING EAST OUT OF SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI AND
LOUISIANA WILL MOVE ACROSS SOUTH ALABAMA AND THE WESTERN FLORIDA
PANHANDLE THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON.  MOST OF THE STORMS ALONG THE
LINE WILL PRODUCE SUDDEN STRONG WINDS GUSTS AT 40 TO 50 MPH.  A FEW
STRONGER CELLS ALONG THE LINE MAY BECOME BRIEFLY SEVERE...PRODUCING
DAMAGING WINDS TO NEAR 60 MPH.  STAY TUNED FOR THE LATEST STATEMENTS
AND POSSIBLE WARNINGS FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE.

STRONG SOUTH WINDS AT 25 TO 35 MPH WILL CONTINUE ALONG THE COASTAL

NORMAL ALONG THE COAST...AS WELL AS ROUGH SURF CONDITIONS ALONG AREA
BEACHES THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON.  THERE IS A HIGH LIKLIHOOD OF
DANGEROUS RIP CURRENTS IN THE SURF AT AREA BEACHES.

THE STRONG WINDS REQUIRE THE CONTINUED ISSUANCE OF SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES FOR THE COASTAL WATERS OF ALABAMA AND NORTHWEST FLORIDA
THROUGH THURSDAY.  SEAS OVER THE GULF WATERS WILL WILL CONTINUE TO
RANGE FROM 10 TO 14 FEET THROUGH TODAY.

A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...WITH THE STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS BECOMING MORE WEST AND
NORTHWESTERLY.

THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL LIKELY CONTINUE THROUGH THURSDAY
MORNING AS STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS AT 20 TO 30 KNOTS CONTINUE IN THE
WAKE OF THE PASSING COLD FRONT.

THERE WILL BE AN INCREASED RISK OF WILDFIRES ON THURSDAY AS DRY AIR
FLOWS INTO THE AREA ON THE HEELS OF GUSTY NORTHWESTERLY WINDS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

ACTIVATION OF STORM SPOTTERS AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT FOR SEVERE
WEATHER OPERATIONS MAY BE REQUIRED FOR A PERIOD OF TIME TODAY.
