AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...MESOSCALE UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
900 AM CDT SAT APR 24 2010
...TORNADO WATCH 92 STILL EFFECT FOR MOST OF THE AREA...
MESOSCALE UPDATE...SOME MINOR UPDATES TO THE T/TD CURVE TO HANDLE
WARMER/MOISTER CONDITIONS THIS MORNING. OTHERWISE...CURRENTLY HAVE
SCATTERED TSRA STREAMING NORTHEAST OVER THE NORTHWESTERN QUARTER OF
THE FA AND POINTS WEST. LOOKS LIKE A SLIGHT DOWNTURN IS OCCURRING
ATTM...BUT WITH THE LOW LEVEL JET TO OUR NORTHWEST PROGGED TO
STRENGTHEN LATER THIS MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON...CAN'T LET OUR
GUARD DOWN YET.

.SHORT TERM [TODAY AND TONIGHT]...
***THERE IS A HIGH RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER IN NORTHERN CHOCTAW
COUNTY.***
***THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER NORTH AND WEST OF A
LINE FROM NEAR WIGGINS MISSISSIPPI TO MCINTOSH TO LUVERNE
ALABAMA...AND A SLIGHT RISK ELSEWHERE.***
THE PLAINS LOW WILL DRAG A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION TODAY. THIS
FEATURE WILL BRING INCREASING DEEP LAYER SOUTHWEST FLOW OVER THE AREA
WILL BRING MUCH WATER VAPOR INTO THE REGION. PRECIPITABLE WATER
RISING TO AROUND 2 INCHES. A SERIES OF PROGRESSIVELY STRONGER
VORTLOBES WILL MOVE OVER THE REGION THROUGH TONIGHT INTO THIS MORNING
EMBEDDED IN THE SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. THERE IS AN UPPER JET PUSHING
INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST INCREASING UPPER DIVERGENCE AND
SUBSEQUENTLY INCREASING FORCING. DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL FROM
ROTATING STORMS TODAY WITH THE HIGHEST RISK OF TORNADOES, SOME LONG
TRACK AND VERY STRONG, GENERALLY WEST OF I-65 AND INLAND WHERE THE
HIGHEST HELICITY WILL BE CO-LOCATED WITH HIGHER THERMODYNAMIC ENERGY.
THERE IS A LOT OF MID AND HIGH CLOUD COVER FROM CURRENT CONVECTIVE
OUTFLOW ALOFT WHICH MAY KILL ANY DIABATIC HEATING. NONETHELESS WE
EXPECT THAT A LINE OF CONVECTION WILL HAVE ORGANIZED ALONG THE
APPROACHING FRONT AND MOVE INTO THE NORTHWESTERN PORTION OF THE
FORECAST AREA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON, ALONG THE I-65 CORRIDOR BY LATE
AFTERNOON, THEN EXITING THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE AREA TONIGHT INTO
EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. STEEP LAPSE RATES ALOFT ESPECIALLY IN THE
WESTERN PORTION OF THE AREA WITH SOMEWHAT LESSER LAPSE RATES FURTHER
EAST DUE TO LINGERING SUBSIDENCE FROM THE UPPER RIDGE. MLCAPES
INCREASING TO 1200 J/KG OVER THE NORTHWESTERN PORTION TO 700-1000
J/KG RANGE ELSEWHERE. AS THE LINE OF CONVECTION MOVES EAST. LOWEST 1
KM HELICITY INCREASES TO ABOVE 300 M2/S2 JUST AHEAD OF THE FRONT.
MODEL HODOGRAPHS SHOW THE FAMILIAR SPIRAL PROFILE FOR THE NORTHERN
COUNTIES WHICH CONTINUES THROUGH TODAY. BY 00Z TONIGHT HODOGRAPHS
STRAIGHTEN OUT ASSOCIATED WITH THE APPROACHING SQUALL LINE..
PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALIZED STREET FLOODING POSSIBLE
ELSEWHERE ESPECIALLY IN TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS...BUT NOT SUFFICIENT
FOR A FLASH FLOOD WATCH. SPREADING 850 TO 300 MB THICKNESS LINES
INDICATE A THREAT FOR BACKBUILDING IN THE WESTERN FLORIDA PANHANDLE.
KEPT SMALL POPS FOR THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA FOR
SUNDAY MORNING DUE TO LINGERING CONVECTION ALONG THE WEAKENING AND
SLOWING FRONT.
MODEL OUTPUTS SUSTAIN WINDS OF 20-23 KNOTS TODAY WITH FREQUENT GUSTS
30 TO 35 SO WE HAVE ISSUED A WIND ADVISORY. /77
&&
.SHORT TERM...[SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT]...LARGE UPPER TROUGH WILL
CONTINUE TO SETTLE OVER THE EASTERN CONUS ON SUNDAY. STRONG SURFACE
LOW OVER THE LOWER GREAT LAKES WILL MOVE EAST...ALLOWING A SECONDARY
FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO PASS THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA SUNDAY NIGHT.
SUNDAY WILL BE WARM AND DRY...WITH HIGHS RANGING FROM THE UPPER 70S
ALONG THE COAST TO MID 80S INLAND AREAS. LOWS SUNDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE
FROM THE MID 60S ALONG THE COAST TO MID 50S INLAND AREAS. THE FRONTAL
PASSAGE LATE SUNDAY WILL BRING A COOLER AND DRIER NORTHERLY FLOW TO
THE AREA FOR MONDAY...WITH HIGHS RANGING FROM 78 TO 83 DEGREES. LOWS
MONDAY NIGHT WILL FALL BACK INTO LOW TO MID 50S NORTH OF I-10...WITH
UPPER 50S ALONG THE COAST. /22
.LONG TERM [TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY]...A MID/UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE
WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST IN THE BROAD UPPER TROUGH IN PLACE ACROSS THE
SOUTHEAST ON TUESDAY. ENOUGH RESIDUAL MOISTURE SHOULD BE AROUND FOR
ISOLATED LIGHT SHOWERS TO DEVELOP ON TUESDAY...MAINLY DURING THE
HEAT OF THE AFTERNOON. A DRY PERIOD WILL FOLLOW OTHERWISE FROM MID
WEEK THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING...WITH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS RETURNING FOR NEXT WEEKEND AS THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM
APPROACHES THE REGION FROM THE WEST. TEMPERATURES TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY WILL REMAIN SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL...AND THEN RETURN TO AT
OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL LATE NEXT WEEK. /22
&&
.AVIATION...FOR 24/12Z TAFS...SHRA AND TSRA CONTINUE TO INCREASE
THIS MORNING. CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT ARE EXPECTED TO BE GENERALLY IFR
OR BELOW DUE RA AND CIGS. TODAY SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHRA AND TSRA
WITH SOME SEVERE. LIFR CONDITIONS NEAR STRONGER CELLS ALONG WITH
SEVERE TURBULENCE WITHIN 15 MILES OF ANY STORM. COLD FRONT EXPECTED
TO PUSH OUT THE CONVECTION FROM THE WEST BY THIS EVENING. /77
&&
.MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IN EFFECT THROUGH TONIGHT...WITH
HIGHER GUSTS OCCASIONALLY. MADE FEW CHANGES TO FORECAST....THE 9
FOOT SEAS STILL LOOK ASSURED AS WELL AS THE TIMING OF WEATHER
EVENTS. SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST THROUGH
TODAY. /77
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...A STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS
AND A SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES WILL BRING WIDESPREAD
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA TODAY. SOME STORMS MAY BE
SEVERE. THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL TAPER OFF AND END BY LATE
