AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
336 PM EDT THU APR 1 2010

.SYNOPSIS...BROAD FLAT SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST
U.S. IS CENTERED ON CENTRAL FLORIDA. SURFACE WINDS AROUND THE
REGION WERE LIGHT AND VARIABLE. AT 18Z...INLAND TEMPS WERE AROUND
80...COASTAL TEMPS WERE IN THE UPPER 60S. DEWPOINTS WERE MAINLY
IN THE MID 40S TO AROUND 50. SKIES WERE CLEAR. ALOFT...HIGH PRESSURE
WAS CENTERED RIGHT OVER US WITH RIDGING OCCURRING NORTHWARD INTO
NEW ENGLAND. A DRY UPPER LOW WAS SITUATED JUST NORTH OF YUCATAN. A
CUTOFF UPPER LOW WAS LOCATED OFF THE U.S. EAST COAST JUST NORTH OF
BERMUDA. A DEEP LONGWAVE TROUGH WAS LOCATED IN THE FAR WEST. THE
JETSREAM DIPS DOWN IN THE FAR WEST AND THEN FLOWS NORTHWARD UP
OVER THE RIDGE INTO SOUTHERN CANADA.

&&

.SHORT TERM (THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT)...
STRONG SHORT WAVE WILL BE ROTATING THROUGH THE LONG WAVE TROUGH
IN THE FAR WEST OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. AS THE TROUGH MOVES
EASTWARD...IT WILL OPEN UP THE UPPER LOW IN THE SOUTHERN GULF OF
MEXICO...WHICH WILL THEN BE TAKEN UP INTO THE MAIN TROUGH. BY
SATURDAY MORNING...THE SHORT WAVE PULSE WILL HAVE MOVED INTO THE
MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WITH AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT EXTENDING
SOUTHWARD INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. MOISTURE AND
INSTABILITY ARE LIMITED WITH THIS SYSTEM. AS THE PULSE OF ENERGY
MOVES FARTHER INTO THE GREAT LAKES AND SOUTHERN CANADA...ANY
FORCING IS NEARLY ELIMINATED AND MOISTURE IS STARVED OUT OF ANY
POSSIBLE ACTIVITY THAT COULD OCCUR IN OUR AREA. SURFACE RIDGE IS
PUSHED OFFSHORE BY TROUGH...BUT EAST WEST SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AND
RIDGING BUILDS BACK IN ON SUNDAY AS UPPER RIDGING BUILDS BACK IN
FROM THE SOUTHWEST GULF OF MEXICO. IN THE MEANTIME...HIGH TEMPS
EACH DAY WILL BE IN THE LOW TO MID 80S. I BASICALLY USED A BLEND
OF MAV/MET FOR HIGH AND LOW TEMPS. MAV HAS 88 FOR A HIGH FOR ABY
FOR FRI. I JUST COULD NOT GO THAT HIGH. AS WEATHER SYSTEM GETS
CLOSER ON SAT...I BROUGHT SLIGHT CHC POPS INTO OUR NW ZONES...
THEN SLIGHT CHC POPS IN GA AND AL SATURDAY NIGHT.

.LONG TERM...SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY.
THE EXTENDED WILL CONTINUE THE PROLONGED STRETCH OF FAIR...WARM AND
MUGGY WEATHER. PERIOD BEGINS WITH TROUGH HAVING PUSHED EWD WITH AXIS
FROM GREAT LAKES TO LWR MS VALLEY...WITH LOW ON US/CANADA BORDER. IN
RESPONSE DEEP LAYER RIDGE HAS BEEN SUPPRESSED AND SHUNTED INTO
ADJACENT ATLC WITH WEAK CYCLONIC TO ZONAL FLOW OVER SE REGION. THIS
MOVEMENT ALLOWED A WEAK MID-SOUTH FRONT TO MOVE SEWD WITH INCREASING
LOCAL SOUTHERLY FLOW AND MUGGY CONDITIONS RETURNING TO LOCAL AREA.

HOWEVER...WITH THE ASSOCIATED DYNAMICS/SHORTWAVE FROM TROUGH MOVING
RAPIDLY OFF TO THE NORTHEAST AND ZONAL FLOW OVER SE REGION...FRONT
HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY PARALLEL (ORIENTED WSW-ENE) TO UPPER FLOW.
FRONT WILL WEAKEN FURTHER AND STALL NORTH OF LOCAL REGION ON SUN.
NEW EXTENDED GUIDANCE MORE PESSIMISTIC THAT FRONT WILL HAVE ANY
RAIN IMPACT ON LOCAL REGION. ON MONDAY INTO TUESDAY...FRONT WILL
DISSIPATE AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGES WWD FROM ATLC TO ACROSS
LOCAL AREA. HIGH PRESSURE WILL DOMINATE BUT BEGIN TO WEAKEN ON
WEDNESDAY AHEAD OF THE NEXT FRONTAL BOUNDARY WHICH WILL MOVE SEWD
AND APPROACH LOCAL REGION WED NIGHT REACHING CWA ON THURS WITH RAIN
BEGINNING WED EVE. SO OVERALL... ONSHORE FLOW AND CONT WARM AND
MUGGY. MAINLY PARTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED INTO LATE TUE OR
EARLY WED. THEN...WITH APPROACHING FRONT...MOSTLY CLOUDY A GOOD BET
ESPECIALLY FOR WRN COUNTIES .

AS FAR AS POPS...GRIDS WILL SHOW SILENT 10 PERCENT OR LESS POPS THRU
PERIOD. AS FOR TEMPERATURES...WITH FRONT APPROACHING AND THEN
LINGERING NORTH OF AREA OVER WEEKEND BEFORE DISSIPATING...HUMID
LARGELY ONSHORE FLOW WILL KEEP MIN AND MAX TEMPS ABOVE NORMAL
(INLAND CLIMO AVG IS AROUND 50/77 FOR EARLY APRIL). THUS...EXPECT
LOWS GENERALLY IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S THRU WED. HIGHS WILL BE IN
THE LOW TO MID 80S THRU TUESDAY THEN WITH INCREASING CLOUDS ON
WED...HIGHS WILL DROP TO THE UPPER 70S TO LOW 80S. THE SEA BREEZE
WILL COOL OFF AFTERNOON TEMPS NEAR THE COAST.

&&

.MARINE...AT 18Z...OFFSHORE WINDS WERE LIGHT AND VARIABLE. AT C
TOWER...WINDS WERE CALM. SEAS WERE LESS THAN 1 FOOT. WINDS AND SEAS
WILL REMAIN RELATIVELY LOW OUTSIDE THE SEA BREEZE ZONE THROUGH
FRIDAY. WINDS AND SEAS COULD BRIEFLY BUILD TO 10 TO 15 KNOTS AND 3
FEET RESPECTIVELY IN THE SEA BREEZE ZONE BOTH THIS AFTERNOON AND
FRIDAY AFTERNOON. COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA ON SATURDAY...
BUT WILL REMAIN NORTH OF THE AREA AND DISSIPATE ON SUNDAY.
CURRENTLY...NO ADVISORY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION...THRU 18Z FRI.
CLEAR SKIES WITH UNLIMITED CIGS WILL PREVAIL THIS EVENING ONCE
AGAIN...UNTIL THE EARLY MORNING HOURS WHEN BR AND POSSIBLY FG MAY
DEVELOP ACROSS THE REGION. VIS MAY BRIEFLY DROP TO MVFR FOR A FEW
HOURS WHEN BR SETTLES IN. LIGHT WINDS WILL DROP OFF COMPLETELY AGAIN
THIS EVENING AFTER SUNSET.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...A VERY DRY AIR MASS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE
SOUTHEAST THROUGH AT LEAST FRIDAY. THEREFORE...RED FLAG CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED AGAIN ON FRIDAY FOR ALL FLORIDA COUNTIES EXCEPT
PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN FL PANHANDLE AND IN OUR NEW COASTAL ZONES.
ON SATURDAY...A FEW AREAS IN FLORIDA COULD BRIEFLY DROP BELOW 35
PER CENT MAINLY IN THE EASTERN FLORIDA BIG BEND...BUT IT APPEARS
THAT WE WILL NOT REACH 4 HOURS.
