&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 826 PM EDT FRI JUN 5 2009/

UPDATE...RAIN COVERAGE CONTINUES TO DECREASE ACROSS THE CWA EARLY
THIS EVENING AS THE HEAT OF DAY IS LOST AND THE AREA HAS BEEN
WORKED OVER PRETTY WELL FROM PRIOR STORMS. HOWEVER... WITH THE
UPPER TROUGH MOVING IN, AND WITH CONVECTION MOVING NORTHBOUND
ACROSS THE STRAITS, SCT TSRA WILL LIKELY OCCUR ALONG THE GULF
COAST AND ACROSS THE FAR SOUTH PORTIONS OF THE PENINSULA LATER
TONIGHT... KEPT POPS IN THE SCT RANGE THROUGH TONIGHT. NO MAJOR
CHANGES NEEDED THIS EVENING AS THE PREVIOUS FORECAST REMAINS ON
TARGET. /TINGLER

AVIATION...CONVECTION CONTINUES TO DECREASE IN COVERAGE THIS
EVENING, HOWEVER A FEW SHRA CAN BE EXPECTED TONIGHT AND MORE
STORMS ARE EXPECTED AGAIN SAT AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE
SW, BUT DURING THE AFTERNOON THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE MAY ATTEMPT
A PUSH INLAND. /TINGLER

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 311 PM EDT FRI JUN 5 2009/

.STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND AGAIN
SATURDAY AFTERNOON INTERIOR AND EAST COAST METRO AREAS...

DISCUSSION...
THE SHORT WAVE THAT WAS JUST WEST OF SOUTH FLORIDA EARLY THIS
MORNING HAS MOVED INTO THE CENTRAL PART OF THE CWA EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON. THIS SHORT WAVE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST THIS
AFTERNOON HELPING TO GENERATE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE
INTERIOR AND EAST COAST METRO AREAS ALONG THE WEST AND EAST COAST
SEA BREEZES. SO WILL CONTINUE WITH THE LIKELY POPS THIS AFTERNOON
OVER THE INTERIOR AND EAST COAST METRO AREAS THIS AFTERNOON...WHILE
THE WEST COAST METRO AREAS WILL REMAIN MAINLY DRY.

THE STORMS SHOULD SLOWLY DISSIPATE THIS EVENING OVER THE CWA AS
THE HEATING OF THE DAY IS LOST. BUT ANOTHER SHORT WAVE ROTATING
AROUND THE TROUGH OF LOW IN THE GULF OF MEXICO WILL BE MOVING
TOWARDS SOUTH FLORIDA TONIGHT. SO WILL CONTINUE THE CHANCE OF POPS
FOR THE WEST COAST METRO AREAS TONIGHT...AND CHANCE OF POPS FOR
THE EAST COAST METRO AREAS THIS EVENING TAPERING DOWN TO SLIGHT
CHANCE AFTER MIDNIGHT.

THE SHORT WAVE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA ON
SATURDAY...AS THE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST AND
THROUGH SOUTH FLORIDA ON SUNDAY. THIS WILL KEEP THE STEERING FLOW
OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST OVER THE CWA THIS WEEKEND...AS FOCUS THE
NUMEROUS POPS OVER THE EAST COAST TAPERING DOWN TO SCATTERED OVER
THE WEST COAST METRO AREAS.

AT THE SAME TIME...THE MID TO UPPER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE WILL
CONTINUE TO COOL TO AROUND -10 TO -11C TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY.
THIS WILL CONTINUE THE POSSIBILITY OF STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS THIS
AFTERNOON AND AGAIN SATURDAY AFTERNOON OVER SOUTH FLORIDA. SO WILL
CONTINUE TO MENTION THIS IN THE HWO AND IN THE ZONES FOR THIS
AFTERNOON AND AGAIN SATURDAY AFTERNOON.

EXTENDED FORECAST...

THE LATEST GFS MODEL HAS WEAKEN THE LOW PRESSURE IN THE WESTERN
CARIBBEAN SEA AND SHIFTED IT TO THE EAST INTO EASTERN CUBA BY END
OF NEXT WEEK...WHILE REST OF THE LONG RANGE MODELS KEEPS A WEAK
LOW IN THE WESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA WITH A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDING INTO SOUTH FLORIDA FROM THE ATLANTIC WATERS. SO WILL
CONTINUE TO INDICATE THE RIDGE BUILDING INTO THE CWA FROM THE
ATLANTIC WATERS FOR MOST OF NEXT WEEK WHICH WILL SHIFT THE
STEERING FLOW BACK TO A SOUTHEAST DIRECTION OVER THE CWA. THIS
WILL FOCUS THE HIGHEST POPS OVER THE INTERIOR AND WEST COAST METRO
AREAS FOR NEXT WEEK.

MARINE...
THE WINDS WILL REMAIN FROM THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST DIRECTION THIS
WEEKEND BEFORE SHIFTING TO THE SOUTHEAST EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE
SPEEDS WILL ALSO REMAIN LESS THAN 15 KNOTS THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK. SO THE SEAS IN THE GULF AND ATLANTIC WATERS WILL REMAIN
BELOW 4 FEET THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. SO BOATING CONDITIONS SHOULD
BE GOOD OUTSIDE OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

FIRE WEATHER...
THE RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL REMAIN WELL ABOVE THE 35 PERCENT
RELATIVE HUMIDITIES THIS WEEKEND...DUE TO THE DEEP TROPICAL
MOISTURE IN PLACE. SO NO PROBLEMS WITH THE FIRE WEATHER PRODUCT.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

THUNDERSTORMS: NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THIS
EVENING. FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES, LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL, LARGE
HAIL, AND WIND GUSTS FROM 50 TO 60 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE
MOST INTENSE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY, AND MAINLY OVER THE EAST COAST
METRO AND INTERIOR LOCATIONS.

STRONGEST ACTIVITY OVER THE EAST COAST AND INTERIOR THROUGH THIS
EVENING.

HAIL: HAIL UP TO ONE INCH IN DIAMETER WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE

THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP EACH DAY. A STRONG MID TO

ALLOW FOR THE LIKELIHOOD OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS AGAIN SATURDAY.
THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AS WELL.
