AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
341 PM CDT TUE SEP 9 2008

.SYNOPSIS...CURRENTLY OVER THE CONUS AND SURROUNDING AREAS...A
SHORTWAVE SYSTEM IS MOVING OVER THE NORTHEASTERN CONUS AS I TYPE...WITH
ANOTHER HEADING ACROSS THE WA/ID/MT CA BORDER. MORE SHORTWAVE ENERGY
WAS SWINGING SOUTHEAST OVER CALIFORNIA/OR TOWARDS THE GREAT BASIN. OK
WAS LOCATED OVER THE WEST END OF CUBA...MOVING WEST ALONG THE
SOUTH SIDE OF AN UPPER RIDGE STRETCHING WEST OVER THE NORTHERN GULF
COAST TO TX FROM THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. OF SPECIAL NOTE IS A WEAKNESS
IN THE RIDGE BEING ANALYZED OVER THE MS/AL BORDER. IN THE LOWER
LEVELS OF THE TROPOSPHERE...THE SURFACE FRONT OVER THE PLAINS HAS
PUSHED SOUTH...RUNNING FROM S-RN NM TO THE TENN RIVER VALLEY...THEN
NORTHEAST TO NEW ENGLAND...EVIDENCED BY A BAND OF CLOUDS ON THE
VISIBLE SATELLITE LOOP.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)...MODELS CONTINUE TO
TAKE IKE WES-NORTHWEST TOWARDS THE TX COAST...PASSING SOUTH OF THE FA
DIRECTLY LATER WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY. AM A BIT CONCERNED
THIS WEAKNESS WILL PULL IKE A BIT NORTH ON ITS TREK ACROSS THE
GULF...BUT CONSENSUS IS THAT ITS EFFECT WILL BE MINOR. FOR THE
FA...THIS MEANS THE BEST CHANCE FOR PRECIP WILL BE
THURSDAY...WITH...DEPENDING UPON HOW MUCH...IF ANY IKE GROWS WHEN
CROSSING THE GULF...HOW MANY FEEDER BANDS WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE
AREA...OR IF THERE IS ANY ENHANCEMENT AT ALL. NAM IS WETTER THAN THE
GFS...EVEN WITH A MORE SOUTHERLY TRACK...SO HAVE STUCK PRETTY CLOSE
TO A GFS/MAV FORECAST.

IN ENDING THE SHORT TERM...THERE IS STILL TOO MUCH SPREAD IN THE
GUIDANCE TO HAVE AS MUCH CONFIDENCE THAT HAS BEEN SHOWN WITH PREVIOUS
FORECASTS...SO IKE WILL HAVE TO BE MONITORED CLOSELY OVER THE CENTRAL
GULF FOR ANY ANOMALOUS WOBBLES OR JOGS THAT SIGNIFICANTLY ALTER THE
CURRENT TRACK.

.LONG TERM (FRIDAY ON)...GUIDANCE AND CURRENT NHC FORECAST HAS THE
EYE OF IKE MAKING LANDFALL ALONG THE CENTRAL TX GULF COAST SATURDAY
AROUND SUNRISE. FROM THERE...TWO SHORTWAVES SWINGING OVER THE
CENTRAL/NORTHERN PLAINS WILL DRAW IKE NORTH AS UPPER HIGH PRESSURE
BECOMES CENTERED OVER SC/GA/NC COAST.

&&

.AVIATION 18Z TAF ISSUANCE...CIGS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN AT VFR
LEVELS FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS. SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA...PRIMARILY NORTH
OF THE MOB/BFM/PNS AIRPORTS...DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING HOURS WILL DISSIPATE AROUND 09/02Z. /22

&&

.MARINE...A LIGHT TO MODERATE NORTHEASTERLY WIND FLOW WILL DEVELOP
OVERNIGHT...SHIFT TO THE EAST AND INCREASE ON WEDNESDAY...AND THE
SHIFT TO THE SOUTHEAST ON THURSDAY. AS HURRICANE IKE MOVES
WEST-NORTHWEST ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN AND CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...LARGE SWELLS WITH A PERIOD OF AROUND 13
SECONDS WILL PROPAGATE NORTHWARD AWAY FROM THE CENTER OF THE STORM.
THESE LARGE...LONG PERIOD SWELLS ARE EXPECTED TO BEGIN IMPACTING THE
GULF WATERS LATE TONIGHT OR WEDNESDAY MORNING. SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES ARE NOW IN EFFECT FOR THE AREA WATERS. PLEASE REFER TO
THE LATEST NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER ADVISORY FOR MORE DETAILS ON
HURRICANE IKE. /22

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...WARM TEMPERATURES WILL CREATE A DEEP MIXING LAYER
INTO WEDNESDAY...WHILE IKE MOVING SOUTH OF THE AREA WEDNESDAY
THROUGH FRIDAY WILL CREATE A STRENGTHENING LOW LEVEL FLOW WEDNESDAY
INTO THURSDAY. WINDS WILL ALSO SEE A SHIFT TO SOUTHEASTERLY. FRIDAY
INTO THE WEEKEND...SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE...WITH...DEPENDENT UPON
THE TRACK OF IKE...STRONGER LOW LEVEL FLOW OVER WESTERN PARTS OF THE
AREA.
