AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
1030 AM EST SUN JAN 3 2010

.DISCUSSION...DESPITE THE INCREASING CIRRUS SHIELD WHICH MOVED INTO
THE REGION LATE LAST NIGHT AND EARLY THIS MORNING...AND SFC WIND
SPEEDS WHICH WERE VERY BORDERLINE...IT APPEARS THAT THE MAJORITY OF
THE CWA WAS JUST ABLE TO GET COLD ENOUGH TO VERIFY THE HARD FREEZE
WARNING OVER THE INTERIOR...WITH A LIGHT FREEZE ALONG MANY COASTAL
AREAS. AFTER EXAMINING THE MSAS SFC DATA THROUGH THE NIGHT...THE
BUBBLE RIDGE WHICH WE NEEDED TO FORM OVER THE CWA DID MATERIALIZE
AND BASICALLY HELD IN PLACE FROM 06 TO 13 UTC. THE REMAINDER OF THE
DAY SHOULD BE QUITE CHILLY WITH FILTERED SUNSHINE AND HIGHS
STRUGGLING TO CLIMB INTO THE MID 40S. OVER THE COASTAL WATERS...
WINDS AND SEAS ARE SOMEWHAT SURPRISINGLY LOW GIVEN THE COLD AND DRY
AIR ADVECTION...AND EXPECT LITTLE CHANGE (EXCEPT PERHAPS A SLIGHTLY
DOWNWARD TREND) FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY.

&&

.AVIATION (THROUGH 12Z MON)...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH
THE FORECAST PERIOD WITH PERIODS OF SCT-BKN CIRRUS. NORTHERLY WINDS
5-10 KT DURING THE DAY WILL BECOME LIGHT NORTHWESTERLY AFTER SUNSET.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...A RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM LATE THIS
MORNING THROUGH SUNSET FOR ALL OF THE TRI-STATE REGION DUE TO
EXPECTED LONG DURATIONS OF LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY. A FIRE WEATHER
WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THE SAME AREAS AND TIME PERIOD ON MON.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...THE CHOCTAWHATCHEE RIVER AT BRUCE-EBRO IS FINALLY
FORECAST TO DROP BELOW FLOOD STAGE TODAY. THE APALACHICOLA RIVER AT
BLOUNTSTOWN IS SLOWING ITS DECLINE AND IS FORECAST TO HOLD STEADY
BETWEEN 17 AND 18 FT FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. THE AUCILLA AT
LAMONT WILL DROP BELOW FLOOD STAGE ON MON.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTHEAST ALABAMA...
SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL GEORGIA...THE FLORIDA BIG BEND AND
PANHANDLE...AND THE ADJACENT GULF COASTAL WATERS.

...HARD FREEZES ARE EXPECTED EACH NIGHT FOR THE NEXT FEW NIGHTS...

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT...
VERY DRY AIR IN PLACE WILL ENHANCE THE SPREAD OF ANY WILDFIRES
TODAY. AFTER A BRIEF PERIOD OF HARD FREEZE CONDITIONS THIS MORNING
IN THE NORMALLY COLDER INLAND LOCATIONS...EVEN COLDER
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TONIGHT. MINIMUM TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN
THE UPPER TEENS TO LOWERS 20S TONIGHT ACROSS MOST INLAND AREAS...
WITH MID 20S NEAR THE COAST AND IN URBAN CENTERS SUCH AS CENTRAL
TALLAHASSEE. LIGHT WINDS WILL PRODUCE WIND CHILL READINGS IN THE
MID TEENS. A WIND CHILL ADVISORY IS ALREADY IN EFFECT FOR
SOUTHEAST ALABAMA. TOTAL FREEZE DURATIONS WILL RANGE FROM 14 HOURS
IN THE COLDEST RURAL INLAND LOCATIONS TO AROUND 8 HOURS NEAR THE
COAST. HARD FREEZE CONDITIONS COULD LAST UP TO 5 HOURS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...
VERY COLD CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO GRIP THE REGION FOR MUCH OF
THE WEEK. HARD FREEZES ARE EXPECTED AGAIN MONDAY AND TUESDAY
NIGHTS WHEN MINIMUM TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST TO DROP INTO THE
UPPER TEENS ACROSS MOST INLAND AREAS. ALTHOUGH IT WILL NOT BE
QUITE AS COLD...SUB-FREEZING TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT
THE REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS WELL. AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS
FORECAST TO MOVE EAST ALONG THE GULF COAST THURSDAY AND THURSDAY
NIGHT. THERE IS A SLIM POSSIBILITY THAT THE PRECIPITATION COULD
ARRIVE BEFORE THE TEMPERATURE RISES ABOVE FREEZING RESULTING IN A
BRIEF PERIOD OF FLURRIES THURSDAY MORNING OVER MAINLY SOUTHEAST
ALABAMA. TEMPERATURES WILL THEN QUICKLY WARM DURING THE DAY WITH A
CHANCE OF RAIN ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA. VERY COLD AIR WILL
RUSH IN BEHIND THE SYSTEM THURSDAY NIGHT AND THERE WILL BE ANOTHER
BRIEF OPPORTUNITY FOR FLURRIES OR LIGHT SNOW OVER SOUTHEAST
ALABAMA AND SOUTHWEST GEORGIA THURSDAY NIGHT. IT IS VERY RARE FOR
SNOW TO FALL IN THESE AREAS...BUT THERE IS A LEAST A VERY LOW
PROBABILITY THAT THIS WILL OCCUR.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED.
