AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
1004 AM EDT WED MAY 27 2009

...A FEW SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE LAKE REGION AND ACROSS THE EAST
COAST METROPOLITAN AREAS THIS AFTERNOON...

.UPDATE...ANOTHER ACTIVE AFTERNOON IS EXPECTED WITH THUNDERSTORMS
FOCUSING FROM THE LAKE OKEECHOBEE REGION TO THE EAST COAST
METROPOLITAN AREAS. THERE IS A SUBTLE SURFACE BOUNDARY STRETCHING
FROM ACROSS CAPE SABLE TO THE UPPER KEYS...WITH SW FLOW NORTH OF
THIS BOUNDARY AND S FLOW TO THE SOUTH OF IT. ASIDE FROM THIS
BOUNDARY...SEA AND LAKE BREEZES WILL ACT ON THE INSTABILITY TO
ALLOW THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP RAPIDLY AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON. THE
MORNING MIAMI SOUNDING SHOWS PARAMETERS SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY WITH
MAX AFTERNOON CAPE OF NEAR 3700 J/KG AND AN LI NEAR -8C. STORM
MOTION WILL BE W NEAR 5 KT...SO ONCE STORMS DEVELOP...MOTION WILL
BE BACK TOWARDS THE ATLANTIC COAST. DECIDED TO INCREASE POPS TO 70
PERCENT FOR THE LAKE OKEECHOBEE REGION AND 80 PERCENT ACROSS THE
EAST COAST METRO AREAS WHERE CONVERGENCE WILL BE BEST ALONG THE
DEVELOPING ATLANTIC SEA BREEZE.

THERE HAVE BEEN ISOLATED SEVERE REPORTS OVER THE PAST FEW
DAYS...AND PARAMETERS SUGGEST THIS POSSIBILITY AGAIN THIS
AFTERNOON...SO WE ACCOUNTED FOR THIS POTENTIAL IN THE UPDATED
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK...ALONG WITH THE HEAVY RAIN AND HIGH
LIGHTNING POTENTIAL. /DG

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 324 AM EDT WED MAY 27 2009/

DISCUSSION...LARGE SCALE TROUGH ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST STATES WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE SHORT TERM AND POSSIBLY INTO THE EXTENDED.
DEEP SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL KEEP THE INTERIOR AND EAST COAST PORTIONS
OF THE CWA IN THE MOST FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR AFTERNOON
CONVECTION WITH SOME STRONG STORMS POSSIBLE. ALL MODELS IN GENERAL
AGREEMENT AS FAR AS THE OVERALL SYNOPTIC PATTERN BUT REALLY
DIVERGE IN OTHER AREAS. FIRST OF ALL, THE NAM HAS BEEN
OUTPERFORMING THE GFS FOR POP GUIDANCE DURING THE PAST FEW DAYS SO
AGAIN WILL LEAN CLOSER TO MET GUIDANCE FOR TODAY. LOOKING AT THE
OVERALL PATTERN AND THE FORECAST SOUNDINGS DOES NOT SHOW ANY
DIFFERENCE THAN WHAT HAS OCCURRED SINCE EARLY THIS WEEK. WE ALSO
WILL SEE STRONG DIURNAL HEATING TAKE PLACE THIS MORNING AS THE SKY
WILL BE MOSTLY FREE OF CLOUDS. SECONDLY, THE GFS SEEMS TO BE
SUFFERING FROM CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK WITH THIS STRONG SOUTHEAST U.S.
TROUGH AS IT CONTINUES TO SPIN UP SURFACE FEATURES. ONE SUCH
FEATURE IS THAT SEVERAL WEAK SHORT WAVES HAVE BEEN ROTATING
THROUGH THE BASE OF THE TROUGH ENHANCING SOME OF OUR CONVECTION.
IT SHOWS A STRONG SHORT WAVE MOVING ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA ON FRIDAY
AND THEN SPINS UP A SURFACE LOW OVER THE EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO.
NEITHER THE NAM NOR THE ECMWF INDICATE THIS WAVE. SO FOR THE TIME
BEING, WILL GO WITH LIKELY POPS EASTERN HALF OF THE REGION BOTH
THIS AFTERNOON AND AGAIN ON THURSDAY WITH SCATTERED POPS ON FRIDAY
UNTIL WE GET A BETTER FEEL WHETHER OR NOT ANY SHORT WAVE WILL HAVE
AN INFLUENCE. ONE THING IS FOR CERTAIN, IF THE GFS IS SEEING
SOMETHING THE OTHER MODELS ARE NOT, IT COULD BE A VERY ACTIVE
CONVECTIVE DAY ON FRIDAY SO THIS WILL BE WATCHED CLOSELY FOR SURE.

IN THE EXTENDED, MODELS ARE NOT QUITE SURE HOW MUCH PUSH THIS
TROUGH WILL HAVE WITH THE NAM SIGNIFICANTLY DRYING US OUT BY LATE
FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY WITH THE GFS AND ECMWF MUCH SLOWER. SO FOR
THIS REASON, HAVE KEPT SCATTERED POPS FOR THIS WEEKEND. THE GFS
THEN SHOWS THE RIDGE BUILDING BACK IN ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA EARLY
NEXT WEEK SO CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT WILL GO BACK TO FORMING ALONG
SEA BREEZE BOUNDARIES WITH THE ACTIVITY CONCENTRATED OVER THE
INTERIOR ZONES AWAY FROM BOTH COASTS.

MARINE...LIGHT SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
PERIOD AS THE RIDGE REMAINS ACROSS THE FLORIDA KEYS. THIS WILL
KEEP SEAS LESS THAN 4 FEET THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

FIRE WEATHER...NO PROBLEMS OR CONCERNS.
