.SHORT TERM...FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT STILL WITH MOST OF THE GUIDANCE
TODAY SUGGESTING PRE-FRONTAL SQUALL LINE DEVELOPING JUST TO THE W OF
THE CWFA MOVING EAST ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWFA LATER THIS AFTERNOON
AND TONIGHT. AT THE SFC QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT LOCATED FROM LOWER
LA BASIN INTO CENTRAL AL HAS BEGUN TO MOVE BETTER TO THE EAST IN THE
LAST HOUR IN RESPONSE TO DEEPENING UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM OVER THE LOWER
CENTRAL PLAINS AND TEXAS MOVING BETTER TO THE EAST. 18Z SOUNDING
FROM LIX SHOWS A STRONG CAP JUST TO THE WEST SUGGESTING THE
POSSIBILITY OF SOME LIMITED INSTABILITY CLOSER TO THE COAST THIS
AFTERNOON POSSIBLY FURTHER TO THE EAST ALSO. LATEST WATER VAPOR
LOOPS SHOW DRIER AIR MOVING IN BEHIND THE FRONT SUGGESTING INCREASED
DESTABILIZATION AS UPPER SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. CURRENT
RUC COMPARED TO THE GFS SUGGESTS SLIGHTLY WEAKER H8 JET AROUND
45KTS MOVING OFF TO THE NORTH BETTER THAN EARLIER ANTICIPATED BY THE
GFS. CURRENT MODEL CAPES STILL LIMITED THOUGH BELIEVE AS DRY SLOT TO
THE WEST MOVES CLOSER THINGS COULD GO DOWN HILL QUICKLY MOSTLY ALONG
THE FRONT. AS FOR NOW WILL CONTINUE TO WITH CURRENT THINKING WITH
DEVELOPING SQUALL LINE ACCELERATING EASTWARD ACROSS THE CWFA LATER
THIS EVENING GIVING WAY TO POSSIBLE STRAIGHT LINE DAMAGING WINDS
MOSTLY DURING THE EVENING HOURS. 0-1KM VERTICAL SHEAR IS STILL
FAIRLY DECENT OUT AHEAD THIS PATTERN SUGGESTING THE THREAT OF SOME
ROTATION OUT AHEAD OF THE MAIN SQUALL LINE CAN'T BE RULED OUT
ESPECIALLY TO THE NORTH WHERE THE BETTER UPPER LEVEL KINEMATICS WILL
PASS. SOME SHEAR WILL STILL BE PRESENT OUT AHEAD OF THE FRONT
SUGGESTING SOME ROTATION WILL ALSO BE PRESENT MAINLY NEAR BOWING
STRUCTURES ALONG THE SQUALL LINE. THE MAIN SQUALL LINE MOVES EAST OF
THE DESTIN BY AROUND 09Z WED WITH SOME POST FRONTAL LIGHT RAIN
LINGERING THROUGH ABOUT 12Z...MOSTLY OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
CWFA. WENT A TAD HIGHER THAN THE CURRENT MAV GUIDANCE FOR TEMPS
THROUGH TONIGHT. /32

&&

.LONG TERM...STRONG WESTERLY FLOW MAY BECOME A CONCERN DURING THE
DAY ON WED...20 TO 30 KNOTS CLOSER TO THE COAST. SFC HIGH BUILDS
OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF COMBINED WITH EXITING TROF TO THE
EAST...HELPING MAINTAIN STRONG GRADIENT FOR WED AND POSSIBLY WED
EVENING. TRAILING SFC LOW IS LOCATED OVER THE MID MS VALLEY AND TN
RIVER VALLEY BY EARLY THU POSSIBLY GIVING WAY TO LOW SC OVER
NORTHERN SECTIONS OF THE CWFA DURING THE DAY ON THU. BY THU NIGHT
INTO FRI SFC RIDGE BUILDS OVER MUCH OF THE TN RIVER VALLEY
STRETCHING SOUTH TO THE CENTRAL GULF COAST. THIS PATTERN GIVES WAY
TO MORE UNSEASONABLY WARM WEATHER WITH A LIGHT NORTHERLY FLOW FOR
LATER IN THE WEEK. ZONAL FLOW LATER IN THE WEEK WILL ALLOW NEXT
UPPER SYSTEM TO MOVE QUICKLY ACROSS THE LOWER GULF STATES OVER THE
WEEKEND. WITH LITTLE RETURN FLOW LATER IN THE WEEK NOT MUCH PRECIP
EXPECTED WITH THIS SYSTEM OVER THE WEEKEND. COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS
THE REGION DURING THE DAY ON SAT. WILL USE THE CURRENT MAV GUIDANCE
OUT TO 72 HRS AND CONTINUE WITH 00Z MEXMOS FOR TEMPS. /32

&&

.AVIATION...(18Z)STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL KEEP CIGS WELL INTO IFR
CATEGORIES THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. SURFACE FRONT TO THE NORTHWEST OF
THE AREA WILL MOVE OVER THE AREA THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS...WITH LOW LEVEL FLOW SHIFTING TO NORTHWEST THERE AFTER.
CURRENT GUIDANCE IS ADVERTISING STRONG WESTERLY FLOW FOR
WEDNESDAY...THOUGH CEILINGS/VIZS WELL IN VFR LEVELS. /16

&&

.MARINE...STRONG ONSHORE FLOW OVER MAINLY AL COASTAL WATERS AND
POINTS WEST WILL SPREAD EAST TONIGHT AS A FRONT MOVES OVER THE AREA.
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO
TONIGHT...AND SPREAD EAST WEDNESDAY. WHEN COMBINED A DEEPENING
SURFACE LOW OVER THE GREAT LAKES REGION...A TIGHT GRADIENT WILL
CREATE STRONG WEST TO NORTHWESTERLY FLOW OVER AL/NW FL COASTAL
WATERS. THIS FLOW WILL EAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY... BUT AS
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS FROM OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS TO THE
SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS...FLOW WILL SWITCH TO OFFSHORE EARLY THURSDAY
NIGHT...THEN BECOME ONSHORE LATER THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY.
ONSHORE FLOW WILL INCREASE LATER FRIDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT AHEAD
OF A FRONT EXPECTED TO PASS OVER AL/NW FL COASTAL WATERS LATE
SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT WILL STALL OVER
THE CENTRAL GULF SUNDAY. /16

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...A STRONG WESTERLY FLOW WILL GIVE WAY TO HIGHER THAN
NORMAL DISPERSION INDICES DURING THE DAY ON WED. HUMIDITIES VALUES
BEHIND THE SFC COLD FRONT LOOK TO REMAIN ABOVE CRITICAL THRESHOLDS
THROUGH MUCH OF THE WEEK. DRIER PATTERN IS EXPECTED BY SUN IN THE
WAKE OF ANOTHER COLD FRONT CONTINUING INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. /32
