AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
1158 AM CST FRI NOV 6 2009

.AVIATION...
18Z TAF CYCLE.
VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH THE FORECAST WITH HIGH PRESSURE OVER
THE CAROLINAS FIRMLY IN CONTROL OF OUR WEATHER. 34/JFB

/PREVIOUS DISCUSSION ISSUED 350 AM CST FRI NOV 6 2009/

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT)UPPER LOW OFF THE NEW ENGLAND
COAST WILL SHIFT SOUTHEAST...PUSHING SURFACE HIGH OVER OH/WV/PA
SSE...TO OVER THE CAROLINA COAST. THIS WILL PUSH MORE OF THE VERY
DRY AIRMASS CENTERED OVER THE APPALACHIANS TOWARDS THE FA. AFTER
LOOKING AT YESTERDAYS POST FRONTAL VERIFICATION...MOS WAS TOO
WARM/DRY. WITH A DRIER AIRMASS BEING PUSHED TOWARDS THE AREA
TODAY...AM TEMPS TODAY TO GENERALLY BE A BIT WARMER THAN
YESTERDAY....SO HAVE BUMPED TEMPS UP FROM GUIDANCE A BIT.
DEWPOINTS...AM EXPECTING DRIER AIR TO WORK ITS WAYS IN...BUT FEEL
GUIDANCE IS A BIT OVERDONE...SO HAVE BUMPED DEWPOINTS UP A BIT ALSO
FROM GUIDANCE.

/16

SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE EXTENDING
ACROSS THE AREA FROM THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES ON SATURDAY WILL WEAKEN
BY SUNDAY NIGHT. DURING THIS TIME FRAME THE H5 HIGH MOVES EAST
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA AND BY SUNDAY NIGHT WILL BE SET UP OFF THE
SOUTHEAST COAST. THE SOUTHERLY MID LEVEL WINDS AS THE HIGH GETS TO
THE EAST WILL BEGIN TO MOISTEN UP THE ATMOSPHERE DESPITE THE STILL
MOSTLY EASTERLY BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES
BELOW AN INCH UNTIL SUNDAY NIGHT. WILL START A SLIGHT CHANCE OF RAIN
OVER THE WESTERN SECTIONS SUNDAY NIGHT AS SOME ISENTROPIC LIFT MAY
WRING OUT A FEW PATCHES OF LIGHT RAIN. HIGH TEMPERATURES SATURDAY
AND SUNDAY IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S...THANKS TO GENERALLY CLEAR
SKIES...MAY BE SOME CIRRUS OVER THE COASTAL ZONES FROM TIME TO TIME.
/11

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)...THINGS GET MORE COMPLICATED
THE FIRST OF THE WEEK AS GUIDANCE IS SHOWING 2 LOW PRESSURE AREAS
MOVING NORTHERLY OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO. ONE OF THE LOWS WILL BE
WHATS LEFT OF IDA AS IT MOVES INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF MONDAY MORNING.
THE OTHER IS OVER THE WESTERN GULF AND FORECAST TO MOVE NORTH THEN
NORTHEAST AND GET CAUGHT UP IN A H5 SHORT WAVE AND MOVE ACROSS THE
NORTHERN GULF AS AN INVERTED SURFACE TROUGH ATTACHES TO THE IDA
CIRCULATION. RAIN CHANCES INCREASE QUITE A BIT FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT...POPS WILL BE 60 TO 70 PERCENT AREA WIDE. FEEL FAIRLY
CONFIDENT THAT MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT WILL BE A RAINY...ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORM PERIOD WITH THE UPPER TROUGH...INCREASING DEEP LAYER
MOISTURE...PWATS NEAR 2 INCHES...AND THE SURFACE TROUGH ALL
AFFECTING THE AREA. RAIN CHANCES BEGIN TO TAPER OFF DURING THE DAY
TUESDAY AS THE UPPER TROUGH MOVES AWAY AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
BEGINS TO PUSH IN FROM THE NORTH. THE INCREASED PRESSURE GRADIENT
BETWEEN THE HIGH AND THE LOW OVER THE NORTHWEST GULF WILL BRING
INCREASING MOSTLY EASTERLY WINDS TO THE COASTAL ZONES AND OFFSHORE.
IDA OR ITS REMAINS MAY STAY TO THE SOUTHEAST OR EAST OF THE
AREA...IN WHICH CASE IT WOULD BE MAINLY A MARINE CONCERN INTO
MIDWEEK WITH THE ELEVATED WAVE HEIGHTS. WILL LIKELY BE SOME HIGHER
THAN NORMAL WATER LEVELS AND WATER RUNUP DUE TO LONGER PERIOD
SWELLS. IT WILL DEPEND ON HOW MUCH OF ITS TROPICAL NATURE IDA CAN
MAINTAIN AND WHERE IT GOES.  /11

&&

.MARINE...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHEASTERN CONUS WILL GET
PUSHED TO OVER THE CAROLINA COAST TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT...THEN GET
STRETCHED BY ABUNDANT SHORTWAVE ENERGY PASSING OVER THE CONUS/CA
BORDER THROUGH THE WEEKEND. RESULT IS A SHIFT IN WIND DIRECTION TO A
GENERAL EASTERLY BY SATURDAY MORN. IDA IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE TO
MEANDER NORTH...HELPING TO TIGHTEN THE PRESSURE GRADIENT OVER THE
GULF...WITH MODERATE FLOW BECOMING STRONG BY LATE SATURDAY/SATURDAY
NIGHT...ESPECIALLY OVER THE 20 TO 60NM ZONES. AS IDA MOVES PAST CUBA
AND INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF...A STRONG SHORTWAVE PASSING OVER THE
NORTHERN PLAINS/GREAT LAKES REGION EARLY IN THE COMING WEEK WILL
PUSH A FRONT ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY/TUESDAY NIGHT WILL KEEP IDA
FROM MOVING OVER THE MARINE FA PROPER...THOUGH INCREASED SWELLS ARE
LIKELY BY MONDAY NIGHT...PROVIDING TIDES ONE TO TWO FEET ABOVE
NORMAL. WITH THE TIDAL CYCLE APPROACHING ITS MAXIMUM IN THE COMING
WEEK...THIS MOST LIKELY WILL CAUSE SOME PROBLEMS OVER COASTAL AREAS.

/16

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...RED FLAG TODAY OVER THE WEST FLORIDA
PANHANDLE...LOWEST HUMIDITY AROUND 25 PERCENT OVER ALL THE FORECAST
AREA BUT ONLY FLORIDA HAS GUIDELINES THAT REQUIRE A RED FLAG. WINDS
TODAY AND SATURDAY MAINLY NORTHEAST TO EAST. ENOUGH OF AN INCREASE
IN DEW POINTS ON SATURDAY THAT SHOULD NOT NEED A RED FLAG OR FIRE
WEATHER WATCH. /11

NORTHERLY WINDS OF 15 TO 20 KNOTS OVER THE MARINE AREA WILL START
THE DAY...THEN SETTLE. THE WINDS WILL AGAIN RISE INTO THE 15 TO 20
KNOTS RANGE TONIGHT...CREATING HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS FOR SMALL CRAFT.

LOW AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL GIVE WAY TO FAVORABLE
CONDITIONS FOR WILDFIRES TODAY.

SHIFTS NORTHWARD AND MOVES INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF BY EARLY NEXT
WEEK. WITH HIGH PRESSURE REMAINING MOSTLY STATIONARY OVER THE
SOUTHEAST UNITED STATES...AND IDA FORECAST TO MOVE OVER THE CENTRAL
GULF....WINDS INCREASING TO 25 TO 30 KNOTS WILL CREATE EXTREMELY
HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS FOR SMALL CRAFT

A SOUTHERLY SWELL WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY
NIGHT...AS IDA APPROACHES CUBA. TIDES OF ONE TO TWO FEET ARE LIKELY
EARLY IN THE WEEK...CREATING A ROUGH SURF AND POSSIBLY MINOR COASTAL
FLOODING...ESPECIALLY WHEN COMBINED WITH A LARGE ASTRONOMICAL TIDAL
RANGE EARLY IN THE WEEK.

LOW AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL CONTINUE TO CREATE FAVORABLE
CONDITIONS FOR WILDFIRES DURING THE DAY SATURDAY.
