AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR THE FLORIDA KEYS
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KEY WEST FL
245 PM EDT FRI JUN 3 2011

.DISCUSSION...IN THE MID AND UPPER LEVELS...700-200 MB...LATEST
AVAILABLE SATELLITE IMAGERY OVERLAID WITH MODEL STREAMLINE ANALYSIS
AS OF 200 PM DEPICTS THE (595 DM AT 500 MB) MID-LEVEL CENTER OF A
ROBUST WARM CORE ANTICYCLONE NEAR GREENVILLE MISSISSIPPI. THIS
BREADTH OF THIS ANTICYCLONE PRESENTLY ENCOMPASSES MUCH OF THE
CENTRAL AND EASTERN UNITED STATES. THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THE
ANTICYCLONE IS ACROSS CENTRAL FLORIDA. CLOSER TO THE KEYS...THERE
REMAINS A NARROW AXIS OF AN EAST TO WEST ORIENTED TROUGH POSITIONED
FROM THE WESTERN GULF EAST TO ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA AND INTO THE WEST
CENTRAL ATLANTIC NEAR 26N 70W. TO THE SOUTH...THERE IS A BROAD AREA
OF LOWER PRESSURE OVER THE NORTH-CENTRAL AND NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN
SEA.

AT THE SURFACE AND IN THE LOWER TO MID LEVELS...SURFACE TO 700
MB...LATEST AVAILABLE SATELLITE IMAGERY OVERLAID WITH BOTH MARINE
AND LAND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS AND ANALYSIS AS OF 200 PM...DETAIL A
NEAR 1020 MB SURFACE RIDGE PARKED FROM ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI DELTA
AREA EASTWARD INTO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC NEAR 30N 70W. CURRENT WATER
VAPOR IMAGERY AND MIMIC SATELLITE TOTAL PRECIPITABLE WATER AS OF
200 PM SUGGEST THAT PWAT(PRECIPITABLE WATER) REMAINS BETWEEN 1.00
AND 1.25 OVER AND JUST UPSTREAM OF THE KEYS.

.CURRENTLY...AS OF 200 PM...SKIES ARE MOSTLY SUNNY ACROSS THE KEYS
AND ADJOINING WATERS. RADAR DOES NOT EVEN DETECT ONE SINGLE SHOWER
ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA. TEMPERATURES OVER THE ISLANDS OVER THE
ISLANDS HAVE CLIMBED TO BETWEEN 85 AND 90 DEGREES WITH DEWPOINTS
ONLY IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S. C-MAN STATIONS ALONG THE FLORIDA REEF
ARE REGISTERING NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS BETWEEN 15 AND 20 KNOTS WITH
GUSTS AROUND 20 KNOTS. ISLAND SENSORS ARE RECORDING WINDS NORTHEAST
TO EAST WINDS BETWEEN 10 AND 20 MPH.

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...THE STRONGEST 500 MB
RIDGING OR NEAR 595 DM @ 500 MB RIDGING WILL REMAIN NEAR THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS THROUGH SUNDAY...WITH THE ANTICYCLONE GRADUALLY
WEAKENING TO NEAR 590 DM BY MONDAY NIGHT. BUT THE FLORIDA KEYS WILL
CONTINUE TO REMAIN ALONG THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE DRIEST AIR
WITH THE 12Z NAM AND GFS MODEL FORECAST SOUNDINGS CONTINUING TO
ILLUSTRATE THAT TOTAL PWAT WILL REMAIN AROUND OR UNDER 1.25 INCHES
ACROSS THE KEYS THRU MONDAY NIGHT. BOTH THE 12Z ECMWF AND THE GFS
ALSO CONTINUE TO INDICATE THE PRESENCE OF SURFACE LOW PRESSURE
MEANDERING IN THE WESTERN CARIBBEAN THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. SINCE THE
SURFACE RIDGE WILL BE ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN FLORIDA THROUGH
SUNDAY...NEAR BREEZY TO BREEZY CONDITIONS WILL ACCOMPANY THE
DRY CONDITIONS. BY SUNDAY NIGHT THE SURFACE RIDGE WILL SLIDE
SOUTHWARD TOWARDS SOUTH FLORIDA...ALLOWING THE GRADIENT TO COLLAPSE
WHICH IS MORE CLIMATOLOGICAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.

WITH THE SURFACE RIDGE JUST TO THE NORTH OF THE KEYS SUNDAY NIGHT
THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...LIGHT EAST WINDS WILL RESUME. DESPITE A LIGHT
WIND PROFILE AND STRONG HEATING SUNDAY AND MONDAY AFTERNOON...12Z
NAM AND GFS FORECAST SOUNDINGS STILL ILLUSTRATE AN ABUNDANTLY DRY
LOWER TO MIDDLE TROPOSPHERIC PROFILE...WITH PWAT REMAINING BETWEEN
1.00 AND 1.25 INCHES. FOR THAT REASON WILL BE STICKING WITH JUST 10
PERCENT POPS THROUGH THE PERIOD...WHICH IS BELOW NORMAL FOR EARLY
JUNE. GIVEN THE HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF SUNSHINE...HI TEMPERATURES WILL
RISE A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL...REACHING TO AROUND 90 DEGREES EACH
DAY.

EXTENDED...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...THE COLD CORE CENTER OF A NEAR
555 DM LOW AT 500 MB CENTERED OVER ATLANTIC CANADA...WILL MOVE MOVE
SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC TO NEAR 35N 60W BY SUNDAY
MORNING...THEN INDUCING SLIGHT HEIGHT FALLS OVER SOUTH FLORIDA AND
THE KEYS BY MONDAY AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY. THE SLIGHTLY LOWER
MID-LEVEL HEIGHTS WILL CONTINUE THOUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK AND THE
12Z GFS MODEL FORECAST SOUNDINGS ILLUSTRATE THAT PWAT INCREASES BACK
TO BETWEEN 1.25 AND 1.50 INCHES...WHICH IN COMBINATIONS WITH A
SURFACE RIDGE REMAINING OVER SOUTH FLORIDA AND IN CLOSE PROXIMITY
TO THE KEYS...WILL PROMOTE BETTER MESOSCALE ACTIVITY OVER SOUTH
FLORIDA AND THE ISLANDS. AS A RESULT...NEAR CLIMO 12 HOUR POPS OF 20
PERCENT WILL BE MAINTAINED THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

.MARINE...MODERATE TO FRESH WINDS LATE THIS AFTERNOON WILL BECOME
FRESH TO STRONG WINDS ACROSS ALL WATERS THIS EVENING AS THE GRADIENT
INCREASES AGAIN IN RESPONSE TO LOWER PRESSURE IN THE WESTERN
CARIBBEAN SEA. AS A RESULT...A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL BE HOISTED
ACROSS THE WATERS THROUGH LATE SATURDAY MORNING. FRESH TO STRONG
EAST WINDS SATURDAY MORNING WILL SLACKEN A TAD SATURDAY AFTERNOON
BEFORE ANOTHER SUBTLE SURGE IMPACTS ALL KEYS COASTAL WATERS SATURDAY
NIGHT. MODERATE TO OCCASIONALLY FRESH EAST WINDS EARLY SUNDAY
MORNING WILL DECREASE DURING THE AFTERNOON AND ESPECIALLY SUNDAY
NIGHT. LIGHT TO GENTLE WINDS ON MONDAY WILL BECOME LIGHT WINDS
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. HENCE THE BEST BOATING CONDITIONS WILL
COMMENCE SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...AND BE IN PLACE DURING NEXT WEEK.
&&

.AVIATION...VFR WILL BE THE PREVAILING CONDITIONS AT THE KEYW AND
KMTH ISLAND TERMINALS LATE THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING.
SHALLOW SCATTERED CUMULUS WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE BASES BETWEEN 2500

MEANWHILE...A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL LINGER IN THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC SEA. THE PRESSURE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THESE TWO FEATURES
WILL RESULT IN ANOTHER WIND SURGE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.
THIS WIND INCREASE WILL LIKELY REQUIRE A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY ON ALL
KEYS COASTAL WATERS TONIGHT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY

A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY MAY BE REQUIRED ON THE FLORIDA STRAITS EARLY
SATURDAY MORNING...BEFORE WINDS SLACKEN SOMEWHAT IN THE AFTERNOON.
ANOTHER MINOR WIND INCREASE SATURDAY NIGHT WILL REQUIRE AT LEAST AN
