AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
650 PM CDT SAT MAR 26 2011

.UPDATE...
AVIATION.

.DISCUSSION...

VERY ACTIVE DAY ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA. CURRENTLY WATCHING SEVERAL
AREAS OF LONG LIVED SUPERCELLS TRACKING EAST. CURRENT DEWPOINTS
ARE IN THE 60S EVERYWHERE EXCEPT THE FAR NORTHEAST PORTION OF THE
AREA...WITH TEMPS RANGING FROM LOWER 50S IN THE NORTHEAST TO MID
80S IN THE SOUTHWEST.

EXCEPT SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTINUE
DEVELOPING THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. ANY
DECREASE IN INSTABILITY WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING IS
EXPECTED TO BE OFFSET BY THE APPROACH OF THE SURFACE LOW AFTER
SUNSET. THE SURFACE LOW WILL RIDE ALONG THE STALLED BOUNDARY FROM
THIS MORNING...MOVING NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL ALABAMA.
THIS WILL KEEP THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE STORMS...ESPECIALLY IN
THE NORTH...INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

THE SURFACE LOW SHIFTS INTO NORTHERN GA SUNDAY MORNING AS A COLD
FRONT SLOWLY SLIDES THROUGH THE AREA. THE AIRMASS SOUTH OF THE
FRONT WILL REMAIN UNSTABLE AND SUPPORTIVE OF SEVERE STORMS...WITH
ACTIVITY COMING TO AN END BY MID AFTERNOON. AN UPPER LEVEL SHORT
WAVE WILL CROSS THE TENNESSEE VALLEY SUNDAY NIGHT AND GENERATE A
SURFACE LOW THAT WILL RIDE ALONG THE SURFACE BOUNDARY STILL DRAPED
ACROSS SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA. WILL KEEP POPS IN SUNDAY
NIGHT AND MONDAY MORNING.

THE ACTIVE PATTERN CONTINUES ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST THROUGH MUCH OF
NEXT WEEK. A SHORTWAVE WILL GENERATE A SURFACE LOW TO OUR
SOUTHWEST TUESDAY...WHICH MOVES NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE AREA ON
WEDNESDAY...BRINGING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA. BEYOND
WEDNESDAY...MODELS DIVERGE...BUT EXPECT A MORE ACTIVE PATTERN TO
CONTINUE THROUGH THE WEEK.

.AVIATION...
00Z TAF DISCUSSION.

A WARM FRONT WAS LOCATED JUST NORTH OF TCL/BHM/ANB. A DEVELOPING LOW
PRESSURE AREA WEST OF THE AREA WILL SWING THROUGH LATE TONIGHT
THROUGH MID DAY SUNDAY ALONG WITH ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT. SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS...SOME SEVERE...WILL BE IN THE VC OF BHM/ANB AT
THIS WRITING. PUT PREVAILING TS INTO THE NORTHERN SITES BY 04Z...AND
LASTING THROUGH AROUND 09Z. CEILINGS WILL DROP OFF DURING THIS
PERIOD INTO MVFR...WITH POSSIBLE IFR/LIFR IN THE HEAVIEST RAIN. BY
09Z...THE NORTHERN SITES WILL HAVE CEILINGS RIGHT NEAR THE IFR/MVFR
BREAK POINT...SLOWLY RISING BY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL BE GUSTY AHEAD
OF THE FRONT AND MAINLY SOUTHWEST WHILE A WIND SHIFT TO WEST THEN
NORTH NORTHWEST IS EXPECTED WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE. THE SOUTHERN SITES
ARE A BIT MORE IFFY ON THE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL SO INSTALLED A
VCTS FROM 08Z TIL 15Z.
