AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION.
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
120 PM EST THU JAN 15 2009

.SYNOPSIS...THE ARCTIC COLD FRONT CONTINUES TO MARCH SE INTO THE CWA
EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...WITH WINDS INCREASING OUT OF THE N-NW BEHIND
IT. DEWPOINTS ARE FALLING INTO THE LOWER TO MID 20S ACROSS NW
PORTIONS OF THE CWA...BUT THESE ARE QUICKLY DROPPING INTO THE TEENS
AND SINGLE NUMBERS FURTHER TO THE NW OVER CENTRAL AND NORTHERN AL
AND MS. SOME THIN CIRRUS IS ALSO STREAMING IN FROM THE SW ACROSS THE
EASTERN 2/3 OF THE CWA...BUT IT IS HAVING LITTLE EFFECT ON
TEMPERATURES. SCT-BKN CU AND AC WITH A FEW FLURRIES IS EVIDENT
FURTHER TO THE NW OVER AR AND OK...BUT THIS CLOUDINESS IS EXPECTED
TO DISSIPATE LONG BEFORE REACHING OUR AREA. OVER THE COASTAL WATERS
...WINDS HAVE INCREASED AND BECOME GUSTY OUT OF THE N AHEAD OF THE
ARCTIC FRONT...SO INITIATED AN SCEC LATE THIS MORNING AND AN SCA FOR
THIS EVENING ON THE MORNING UPDATE.

&&

.SHORT TERM...AS HAS BEEN THE CASE OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS...THE MAIN
FCST CONCERN WILL CONTINUE TO BE LOW TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE REGION
...AS THE COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON AND WIDESPREAD HARD FREEZE IS
STILL EXPECTED ON FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY MORNING. HOWEVER...THE
POSSIBLE EXTREME COLD WITH LOWS IN THE LOWER TO MID TEENS THAT WAS
EARLIER EVIDENT IN MANY OF THE SHORT RANGE MODELS IS APPEARING LESS
LIKELY WITH TIME...AS THE POSITION OF THE RIDGE MAY BE TOO FAR TO
OUR NE TO ALLOW FOR THE IDEAL RADIATIONAL COOLING CONDITIONS NEEDED
FOR LOWS THIS COLD. IF THE SFC WINDS REMAIN AT 2-4 KTS FOR MUCH OF
THE NIGHT...LOW TEMPERATURES MAY BOTTOM OUT IN THE UPPER TEENS TO
LOWER 20S INLAND TO THE MID 20S NEAR THE COAST...SO WILL ADJUST
TEMPS SLIGHTLY UPWARD ON THIS PACKAGE. WILL ALSO INITIATE A HARD
FREEZE WATCH OVER ALL AREAS FOR FRIDAY NIGHT. FOR TONIGHT...THE COLD
AIR ADVECTION WILL LIKELY BE STRONG ENOUGH TO SUPPORT A HARD FREEZE
OVER ABOUT THE N 1/2 OF THE CWA...DESPITE NORTHERLY WINDS OF 5 TO 10
KTS...WHICH WILL ALSO LIKELY CREATE WIND CHILL ADVISORY CONDITIONS
OVER THESE SAME AREAS (15 DEGREES OR BELOW) LATE TONIGHT. FURTHER TO
THE SE...EXPECT ANOTHER WIDESPREAD LIGHT FREEZE WITH WIND CHILLS IN
THE UPPER TEENS TO LOWER 20S.

&&

.LONG TERM...(SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)...THE PERIOD BEGINS
WITH A STRONG RIDGE OVER WRN CONUS AND A FAIRLY STRONG SHORTWAVE
TROUGH THAT DROPS DOWN FROM GREAT LAKES TO ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST
REGION. THIS MAINTAINS UPPER TROUGHING ACROSS THE EASTERN 1/3RD OF
CONUS INTO SUN NIGHT BEFORE SHIFTING TO THE EASTERN SEABOARD ON MON
AND INTO WRN ATLC MON NIGHT. AT THE SURFACE...IN WAKE OF INITIAL
REINFORCING FRONT AND BRUTALLY COLD FRI NIGHT-SAT...SOME WARMING
FROM PREV 24 HRS SAT WITH MINS SAT NIGHT IN THE TEENS PER MEX...AND
FROM UPPER 20S SE ALA TO LOW 20S SE BIG BEND IN MOS. AGAIN MEX
COMING IN WAY TOO COLD AND WILL FAVOR MOS WITH A FEW DEGREE TWEAK UP
IN FORECAST TEMPS. ABOVE TROUGH SENDS THE NEXT AND POSSIBLY THE LAST
IN A SERIES OF COLD FRONTS ACROSS CWA SUN NIGHT-EARLY MONDAY. AHEAD
OF FRONT...LATEST GUIDANCE NOW SHOWING MORE INSTABILITY...M/CLOUDY
SKIES...MILDER TEMPS AND LO CHC POPS SUN NIGHT COMPARED TO PREV RUN.
UNTIL I SEE RUN TO RUN CONSISTENCY..WILL GO WITH SLIGHT CHC IN
GRIDS. IN ITS WAKE...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE CENTRAL GULF
COAST INTO TUES.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...MODELS SHOWING A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE TO
LARGE SCALE CONUS PATTERN...HIGHLIGHTED BY A SLOW PROGRESSION AND
DEAMPLIFICATION AS ADVERTISED BY ALL OF THE EXTENDED RANGE MODELS.
INCREASING PACIFIC ENERGY WILL PROGRESSIVELY BREAK DOWN THE WRN
RIDGE WHICH MOVES INTO ROCKIES ON TUES AND TO ERN PLAINS MID WEEK.
BY LATE THURS...REMNANTS OF THE RIDGE DRIFT ACROSS THE SE CONUS AND
THE UPPER FLOW BECOMES WSW. AT THE SURFACE...THE NE GULF SUBTROPICAL
RIDGE BEGINS TO REAPPEAR. SO AFTER SLIGHTLY BELOW CLIMO MINS SUN
NIGHT...TEMPS WELL BELOW CLIMO MON NIGHT-TUES MORNING IN WAKE OF
FRONT...THEN INCREASING RETURN FLOW...ESPECIALLY WRN ZONES...AND A
GRADUAL RETURN TO MORE SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES (ALBEIT STILL AOB
CLIMO) INTO LATE WEEK.

&&

.MARINE...WITH A TIGHTENING PRESSURE GRADIENT AND STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION EMERGING OVER THE COASTAL WATERS TONIGHT...WINDS SHOULD
EASILY INCREASE TO SCA LEVELS...WITH GUSTS TO 30 KTS POSSIBLE. HOW
LONG THESE CONDITIONS WILL LAST IS MORE IN QUESTION...AND HAVE
TENTATIVELY GONE WITH AN END TIME OF FRIDAY EVENING. ANOTHER SURGE
WILL BE POSSIBLE FRIDAY NIGHT...SO THIS MAY HAVE TO BE ADJUSTED AT A
LATER TIME.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...DESPITE THE COLD TEMPERATURES...THE AIR SHOULD BE
MORE THAN DRY ENOUGH TO SUPPORT RED FLAG CONDITIONS OVER ALL AREAS
FRI AND SAT AFTERNOON...SO WILL GO RIGHT TO A RED FLAG WARNING FOR
SAT.
