AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
305 AM EST MON DEC 13 2010

...AN ARCTIC AIRMASS WILL CONTINUE TO SURGE ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA...

...RECORD LOW TEMPERATURES ARE POSSIBLE EARLY TUESDAY MORNING...

.SYNOPSIS...
AT 3 AM EST...SKIES WERE GENERALLY CLOUDY WITH CIGS AT 4-5K. TEMPS
RANGED FROM LOW TO MID 30S.24 HR TEMP/DEW POINT COMPARISON INDICATE
A SIGNIFICANT AIRMASS MODIFICATION WITH BOTH TEMPS AND DEW POINTS
RUNNING AT LEAST 20 DEGREES COLDER AND DRIER THAN SAME TIME
YESTERDAY. NW WINDS WERE GENERALLY AROUND 15 MPH WITH GUSTS TO NEAR
30 MPH.

AT UPPER LEVELS...
THE LARGE SCALE LONGWAVE PATTERN REMAINS HIGHLY AMPLIFIED WITH
RIDGING OVER WEST 2/3RDS AND A TROUGH OVER EAST 1/3RD IN ADJACENT
ATLC WITH 521DM LOW OVER TN VALLEY. IT APPEARS THAT THIS TROUGH HAS
JUST ABOUT REACHED ITS GREATEST AMPLITUDE AS THE AXIS PIVOTS ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA. SO TODAY APPEARS TO BE A TRANSITIONAL DAY WITH A
LESSER AMPLIFIED/INCREASINGLY ZONAL LARGE SCALE PATTERN EVOLVING
INTO WEDNESDAY AS STRONG SHORTWAVE MOVES FROM PAC NW COAST INTO
RIDGE BEGINNING TUES MORNING. IN FACT...LATEST PIX SHOWS THAT WRN
RIDGE AMPLITUDE ALREADY STARTING TO DECREASE. THE MODELS ARE IN
REASONABLE AGREEMENT THAT TROUGH AXIS WILL MOVE INTO WRN ATLC THIS
AFTN AND SPLIT INTO TWO LOW CENTERS...THE FIRST OF WHICH RETROGRADES
INTO ONTARIO...WHILE A SECOND REFORMS OFF THE EAST COAST REACHING
THE GULF OF MAINE ON WEDNESDAY.

AT LOWER LEVELS...
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER S/CNTRL CANADA WAS RIDGING SWD TO
EAST TX WITH STRONG ARCTIC AIRMASS CONTINUING TO BUILD ACROSS THE
GULF REGION. SO COLDEST AIRMASS OF THE SEASON WITH WITH STRONG LOW
LEVEL COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY WITH HARD
FREEZES AND WIND CHILL ADVISORIES AT LEAST NEXT 24 HRS. A TIGHT
PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL PERSIST KEEPING BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS
ACROSS THE AREA TODAY AND HIGH GUSTS MAKING IT FEEL EVEN COLDER.
THESE WINDS COMBINED WITH THE LOW MIN TEMPS WILL RESULT IN WIND
CHILLS DROPPING INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS AWAY FROM THE COAST TONIGHT.

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)...
EARLY THIS MORNING...STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION IS ALREADY UNDERWAY.
WITH A 6-MB PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA...BREEZY AND
GUSTY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO USHER IN ARCTIC AIR. WIND CHILLS
COULD REMAIN IN THE UPPER SINGLE DIGITS ACROSS OUR NWRN ZONES AND
ONLY IN THE LOWER TEENS ACROSS INLAND BIG BEND.

REST OF TODAY...GUSTY WINDS WILL KEEP WIND CHILL READINGS BELOW
FREEZING ALL DAY...EXCEPT FOR PERHAPS A COUPLE HOURS IN THE
AFTERNOON. HIGH TEMPERATURES ONLY EXPECTED TO REACH THE LOWER 40S
DESPITE PLENTY OF SUNSHINE. AS ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO
BUILD INTO THE AREA...VERY COLD AND DRY AIR CONTINUING TO ADVECT
DOWN THE STATE. VERY GUSTY WINDS LATER TODAY PROMPTED THE ISSUANCE
OF A WIND ADVISORY.

TONIGHT...HARD FREEZE WARNING AND A WIND CHILL ADVISORY ARE IN
EXPECTED. WITH THE HIGH CLOSER TO LOCAL AREA AND ASSOCD RIDGE
SETTLING OVER REGION..WINDS WILL BE NOTICEABLY LOWER THAN SUNDAY
NIGHT AND TEMPS WILL PLUMMET TO LOWEST VALUES OF SEASON. RECORDS
TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY. (SEE BELOW).

TUESDAY...THE RIDGE BEGINS TO SLOWLY SHIFT EAST RESULTING IN
TEMPERATURES ONLY A FEW DEGREES WARMER THAN MONDAY. WILL SEE MAX
TEMPS IN THE MID TO UPPER 40S WITH ABUNDANT SUNSHINE. WE WILL START
TO SEE SOME RECOVERY AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL START TO RELAX
ALLOWING NW/N WINDS TO DIMINISH. LOWS WILL STILL BE IN LOW-MID 20S
AND HARD FREEZE AND WIND CHILL PRODUCTS AGAIN LIKELY.

WEDNESDAY...FURTHER RECOVERY OF 5-8 DEGREES WITH MAX TEMPS IN MID
50S.

&&

.LONG TERM (THURSDAY-MONDAY)...
THE COMBINATION OF ZONAL FLOW ALOFT AND SOUTHERLY LOW-LEVEL FLOW
AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES
ABOVE AVERAGE THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. THE LATEST NUMERICAL
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO FLUCTUATE FROM RUN TO RUN WITH REGARD TO
TIMING AND EVOLUTION OF THIS NEXT SYSTEM PROGRESSING OVER THE
REGION. THEREFORE...SOME UNCERTAINTY REMAINS IN THIS
PACKAGE...ESPECIALLY FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY WHEN THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY IS PROGGED TO PUSH THROUGH OUR CWA FROM WEST TO EAST. THE
GFS AND ECMWF ARE INDICATING A SFC LOW DEVELOPING ALONG THIS FRONTAL
BOUNDARY OVER THE NORTHWEST GOM FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY AND
QUICKLY LIFTING ENE OVER THE CWA LATER ON SATURDAY. THIS TIMING IS A
LITTLE LATER THAN PREVIOUSLY FORECAST. IF THIS VERIFIES...ONE MORE
DAY WITH ABOVE AVERAGE TEMPERATURES CAN BE EXPECTED SATURDAY.
DESPITE THE 2-3 DAY STRETCH WITH SOUTHERLY FLOW OVER THE AREA
THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...DEWPOINTS ARE ONLY FORECAST TO CLIMB
INTO THE 50S WITH LIMITED INSTABILITY. THEREFORE...WILL KEEP MAINLY
SHOWERS IN THE FORECAST AS THIS SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH. SATURDAY NIGHT
THROUGH MONDAY...UPPER PATTERN WILL BECOME AMPLIFIED ONCE AGAIN WITH
TROUGHING OVER THE EASTERN STATES AND RIDGING OUT WEST. DRIER AIR
WITH TEMPERATURES DROPPING BACK BELOW AVERAGE WILL BE EXPECTED COME
SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY IN THE WAKE OF THIS SYSTEM.

.MARINE...WHILE WE HAVE YET TO SEE SUSTAINED GALES ACROSS THE NE
GULF...GUSTS HAVE BEEN ALMOST CONTINUOUSLY IN THE 35-40 KT RANGE.
SEAS HAVE REACHED 16 FT AT BOTH OFFSHORE BUOYS. THE GALE WARNING IS
SET TO EXPIRE AT 10 AM EST THIS MORNING BUT MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED
BY A COUPLE OF HOURS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS WILL FOLLOW
AND LINGER INTO TUE MORNING. WINDS AND SEAS WILL THEN SUBSIDE BY THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS EWD ACROSS THE WATERS.

&&

.AVIATION...MODERATE NORTHWEST WINDS WITH FREQUENT GUSTS IN THE
20-30 KT RANGE WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY
TODAY...THEN DECREASE TO LIGHT NORTHERLY WINDS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT
PERIOD MONDAY NIGHT. THE SHALLOW STRATUS DECK AROUND 5 KFT WILL
CLEAR OUT TODAY AS DRY AIR CONTINUES TO ADVANCE SOUTH OVER THE
REGION. VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH AND BEYOND THIS 24 HR TAF
CYCLE.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...VERY DRY AIR COMBINED WITH GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS
WILL LEAD TO RED FLAG CONDITIONS OVER THE AREA TODAY. DISPERSIONS
WILL REMAIN ABOVE 75 THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY...THEN SLOWLY DROP OFF
TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY AS THE WINDS DECREASE. ALTHOUGH THE WINDS DROP
OFF CONSIDERABLY BY TUESDAY...RELATIVE HUMIDITIES ARE FORECAST TO
DROP INTO THE TEENS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON PERIOD FOR SEVERAL HOURS.
AS A RESULT...THE RED FLAG CONDITIONS WILL BE EXPECTED TUESDAY. THIS
DRY AIRMASS WILL BEGIN TO MODIFY THROUGH THE SECOND HALF OF THE WEEK
AS ANOTHER SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. ONE MORE DAY WITH RED
FLAG CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE AREA
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON DUE TO LONG DURATIONS OF LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY.
