.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 334 AM CDT WED SEP 28 2011/

SHORT TERM...
17
TS ACTIVITY CONTINUES TO FIRE ALONG THE 850MB BOUNDARY. THIS AREA
WILL DRIFT SOUTHWARD TODAY GIVING OUR AREA A CHANCE OF TSTMS. THE
BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE SOUTHWARD INTO THE GULF THU. WE WILL SEE A
STRONG COOL AIR SURGE INTO THE AREA AS A REINFORCING STRONGER SFC
COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH FRIDAY EARLY EVENING. THIS WILL SET THE
STAGE FOR SOME MUCH COOLER (~15 DEGREES) CONDITIONS. THE COOL AIR
WILL BE OVERTOPPED BY CLOUDINESS BY TUE PROLONGING THE COOL
WEATHER. NOT SURE HOW FAR NORTH THE OVERCAST CONDITIONS WILL BE BY
THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK AND SO NO TEMP CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE TO
THE EXTENDED. MAY HAVE TO INCLUDE SOME LIGHT RAINFALL AS WELL BY
THE END OF THE FCAST PERIOD AS SEVERAL DISTURBANCES MOVE THROUGH
THE DEEP EASTERLIES THAT ARE STUBBORN TO LEAVE.

AVIATION...
SPORADIC CLOUD HEIGHTS CAN BE EXPECTED MUCH OF TODAY. MOST TAF SITES
CURRENTLY HAVE VFR BUT LIFR AND IFR HAVE BEEN OBS AT HUM AND GPT AT
TIMES THIS MORNING. MID LEVEL DECK WILL DOMINATE TODAY WITH LOWERING
CIGS TO MAINLY MVFR WITH SHOWERS AND STORMS EXPECTED. PROB30 HAS
BEEN PUT MOST TAFS FOR LATE MORNING THRU AFTN FOR STORMS. ACTIVITY
MAY CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING AND THUS MAY NEED TO EXTEND THIS.
WINDS WILL BE MOSTLY LIGHT AND WESTERLY THRU THE PERIOD OTHER THAN
GUSTS DURING STORMS.

MEFFER

MARINE...
WEAK SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO WILL
GRADUALLY NUDGE WESTWARD THRU TOMORROW. AT THAT POINT...WINDS WILL
BECOME VARIABLE TO SLIGHTLY NORTHERLY AS A BOUNDARY MOVES TOWARDS
THE COASTAL WATERS. EXPECT SEAS OF 2 FEET OR LESS TODAY AND THURSDAY
BUT MAINLY NO MORE THAN A FOOT. THE ACTUAL COLD FRONT SHOULD MOVE
THROUGH THE COASTAL WATERS FRIDAY AFTN/EVN. THE COLD AIR BEGINS
ADVECTING FRIDAY NIGHT AND THUS WINDS/SEAS TO PICK UP.  MODERATE TO
STRONG NORTHEASTERLY WINDS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE END OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD. EXERCISE CAUTION LOOKS TO BE LIKELY WITH THE
POSSIBILITY OF MAINLY MARGINAL ADVISORY CONDITIONS AT LEAST IN THE
OUTER WATERS.
