AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
630 PM CDT TUE MAY 5 2009

.UPDATE...FOR AVIATION DISCUSSION.

&&

.DISCUSSION...

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON...
MAINLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE I-20 CORRIDOR. THERE WILL BE SOME
ISOLATED SHOWERS NORTH OF HERE...BUT THE MAIN CONCERN WILL BE ACROSS
THE SOUTH...WHERE TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE 80S. THE THREAT WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH 10 PM TONIGHT.

ONCE THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DISSIPATE...THEN ATTENTION
TURNS TO AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE THAT WILL SLIDE THROUGH DURING
THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY. THIS DISTURBANCE IS CURRENTLY PRODUCING
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA. THIS DEVELOPING
MCS WILL PROPAGATE FAIRLY QUICKLY TOWARD NORTHERN ALABAMA. IN FACT
LOOK FOR ACTIVITY TO IMPACT THE NORTHWESTERN SECTIONS OF THE AREA BY
AS EARLY AS 5 TO 7 AM AND THE SLIDE EAST DURING THE DAY. MAIN
THINKING RIGHT NOW IS THAT THE MAIN SEVERE THREAT WILL BE BETWEEN 10
AM AND 8 PM. IT LOOKS AS THOUGH THIS COULD BE A SCENARIO IN WHICH
THE AREA IS HIT WITH TWO PHASES. THE FIRST WOULD BE THE MCS ACROSS
THE NORTH DURING THE MORNING HOURS. MORE STORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS
CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI DURING THE MORNING AND THEN SLIDE THROUGH AS
WELL AS DEVELOP ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS.
THE MAIN THREAT WITH THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE SEVERE WINDS AND HAIL.
THERE WILL ALSO BE A THREAT FOR LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING...
ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NORTH. BUT THIS REALLY DEPENDS ON RAINFALL
RATES AND ANY TRAINING THAT MAY OCCUR. THIS DISTURBANCE AND WEAK
SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL BEGIN TO SLOW DOWN ACROSS SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF
CENTRAL ALABAMA BY THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING...KEEPING RAIN
CHANCES FAIRLY HIGH THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...ALTHOUGH THE
SEVERE THREAT APPEARS TO DISSIPATE WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING.

WOULD NOT SURPRISED FOR RADAR ON THURSDAY TO LOOK MUCH LIKE THIS
AFTERNOON WITH A SURFACE BOUNDARY ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA AND A
SURFACE FRONT ACROSS THE SOUTH. BY THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY THE
NEXT FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL SAG SOUTHWARD AND SET UP SHOP MUCH LIKE
THIS PAST WEEK...NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER...WITH THE
WARMER TEMPERATURES AND PLENTY OF MOISTURE AROUND...WOULD NOT BE
SURPRISED TO SEE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE NORTH FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY. BY SUNDAY...WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE MORE IN THE
LINE OF MCS DEVELOPMENT TO BEGIN TO SLIDE SOUTHWARD AND IMPACT MORE
OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH MONDAY.

AFTER THIS MODELS ARE BEGINNING TO DIFFER WITH RUN TO RUN
CONSISTENCY AS WELL AS AGREEMENT. 00Z RUNS KEPT THE TROUGH IN PLACE
THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK...WHILE THE 6Z AND 12Z RUNS ARE
BUILDING IN A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE. STILL QUITE A BIT OF TIME FOR
THIS TO PAN OUT AND GET INTO MORE OF AGREEMENT...BUT COULD BE THE
START OF THE NEXT PATTERN SHIFT. MORE ON THIS AS IT APPROACHES.

&&

.AVIATION...00Z TAF DISCUSSION.

ON GOING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL EFFECT TOI AND MGM THROUGH
03Z.  OTHERWISE...LOOK FOR WARM FRONT TO LIFT NORTHWARD ACROSS THE
AREA OVERNIGHT. MODELS DE-STABILIZE MUCH OF THE AREA AFTER 09Z AND
EXPECT ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP.  THEY WILL
BECOME SCATTERED AFTER 15Z AND NUMEROUS TO WIDESPREAD AFTER 18Z.
CEILINGS THROUGH 10Z MAINLY 3000 TO 5000 WITH SOME PATCHY FOG
POSSIBLE AFTER 08Z.  CEILINGS 2000 TO 3000 FEET AFTER 08Z WITH
TEMPORARY CEILINGS 1000 TO 2000 FEET IN AND NEAR STORMS.

.BMX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
