AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSONVILLE FL
430 AM EDT MON MAR 28 2011

.SYNOPSIS...WATER VAPOR IMAGERY WAS SHOWING A NEAR ZONAL AND
PROGRESSIVE PATTERN ACROSS MUCH OF THE U.S. MSAS ANALYSIS INDICATED
A COLD FRONT ACROSS SE GA WHICH WAS SLOWLY MOVING SOUTH. THERE WERE
CONSIDERABLE LOW CLOUDS ALONG AND NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY DUE TO WEAK
UPGLIDE. THESE LOW CLOUDS WILL SPREAD INTO NE FL THIS AM AS THE
FRONT CONTINUES TO MOVE SOUTH. IR IMAGERY WAS SHOWING AN MCS IN THE
EASTERN GULF PRODUCING MASSIVE AREA OF SHOWERS/STORMS WHICH WERE
MOVING EAST. A POSSIBLE OUTFLOW FROM THE MCS WAS PRODUCING STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS ACROSS THE NE GULF SPREADING INTO N AND NE FL WHERE
THERE IS A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH. UPPER IMPULSES WERE PRODUCING
SCATTERED STORMS ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL AND UPPER SE GA WHICH WILL
CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST THE REST OF THE EARLY MORNING.
MEANWHILE...WILDFIRES CONTINUE ACROSS SE GA...MOST NOTABLY THE
ARABIA BAY IN NORTHERN CLINCH AND SESSOMS IN SOUTHERN BACON.

&&

.SHORT TERM (MON-WED)...

MONDAY...MCS MOVES EAST ACROSS CNTL FL THIS AM. FRONT STALLS OUT
OVER NE FL WITH THE FIRST IN THE SERIES OF DISTURBANCES MOVING IN
FROM THE GULF OVER THE AREA. GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT WITH SHORT WAVE
ENERGY INTERACTING WITH THE BOUNDARY TO PRODUCE A GOOD CHANCE OF
SHOWERS AND STORMS. HIGHEST POPS NEAR AND SOUTH OF THE FRONT.
HAVE A SHARP N TO S POP DISTRIBUTION WITH HIGHEST POPS (CATEGORICAL)
TO THE SOUTH. MUCH COOLER TEMPS TO THE NORTH BEHIND FRONT. TEMPS
RANGING FROM MID 60S IN THE NORTH TO MID/UPPER 70S NE FL.

TUESDAY...DISTURBANCE EXITS THE AREA AND FRONT STALLS JUST TO THE
SOUTH. WILL SEE A NE FLOW AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS THE
CAROLINAS. WILL KEEP LOW END CHANCE POPS GOING ACROSS THE EXTREME
SOUTH NEAR THE STALLED FRONT AND SLIGHT CHANCE ELSEWHERE. NE FLOW
WILL KEEP COASTAL AREAS MUCH COOLER (AROUND 70).

WEDNESDAY...NEXT IN THE SERIES OF SHORT WAVES WITH ASSOCIATED
COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THE AREA. HAVE RAISED POPS TO LIKELY
IN MOST AREAS. WILL HAVE BULK SHEAR OF 40-50 KNOTS AND MARGINAL
INSTABILITY SO SOME STORMS MAY BE STRONG AND PRODUCE HAIL AND
GUSTY WINDS.

.LONG TERM (THU-SUN)...GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE 00Z MODEL RUNS...
WITH THE GFS TRENDING MORE TOWARDS THE ECMWF AND GEM. THE MODELS
DEVELOP AND AMPLIFY AN EASTERN U.S. TROUGH BY THE END OF THE
WEEK. A CONTINUED WET PATTERN CONTINUING THURSDAY WITH A SHORT
WAVE AND ASSOCIATED COLD THAT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE AREA BRINGING
A GOOD CHANCE OF SHOWERS/STORMS. WILL CONTINUE WITH PREVIOUS POPS
OF 50% AREA WIDE. WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO MENTION IN THE HWO THE
POSSIBILITY OF HEAVY RAINFALL. DRIER AND COOLER AIR MOVES IN
NEXT WEEKEND AS THE TROUGH LIFTS OUT AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
IN FROM THE GULF.

&&

.AVIATION...LIFR AND IFR CIGS AND MVFR VSBY WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS BEFORE SOME IMPROVEMENT IS EXPECTED.
HOWEVER...SHOWERS AND TSTMS ARE EXPECTED TO OCCASIONALLY
AFFECT TAF SITES THROUGH AROUND 18Z...WITH THE BEST CHANCES OF
CONVECTION AT GNV. FOR TONIGHT...ANTICIPATE IFR/MVFR CIGS AND WILL
LIKELY GO MORE PESSIMISTIC WITH GNV TAF WITH SUBSEQUENT FORECASTS.

&&

.MARINE...NELY WINDS AT 15-20 KT OVER SE GA EXPECTED TO DECREASE
DURING THE DAY AS LOW PRES TRACKS ACROSS THE AREA...THEN WINDS INCREASE
AGAIN TONIGHT WITH SCEC CONDS LIKELY FOR PORTIONS OF THE MARINE
ZONES. NELY WINDS DECREASE AGAIN LATE TUE AS FRONT BEGINS TO LIFT BACK
NWD WITH A STRONGER FRONT PUSHING THROUGH BY THU.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...NO STATEMENTS OR WARNINGS NEEDED WITH RH VALUES
REMAINING WELL ABOVE CRITERIA NEXT FEW DAYS. CLOUD TO GROUND
LIGHTNING MAY POSSIBLY SPARK NEW WILDFIRES.
