AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL
249 PM EDT SAT OCT 8 2011

.DISCUSSION...

...HEAVY RAIN WITH LOCAL FLOODING LIKELY THROUGH THE WEEKEND...
...HAZARDOUS MARINE CONDITIONS AND BEACH EROSION THROUGH THE
WEEKEND...

CURRENT-TONIGHT...CONTINUED BANDS OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS CONTINUE TO FEED ONSHORE
WITH ABUNDANT RAINFALL ACROSS EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA THIS AFTERNOON.
LARGE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS IN PLACE OVER THE MID ATLANTIC
STATES WITH LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING OVER THE NORTHWEST CARIBBEAN.
THE TIGHT GRADIENT HAS KEPT CONDITIONS WINDY ALONG THE COAST.
FURTHER ALOFT AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE EASTERN GULF
CONTINUES TO SPIN AND PROVIDE LARGE SCALE LIFT.

THE MAIN CONCERN CONTINUES TO BE THE TRAINING OF RAIN ECHOES AND
RESULTING HEAVY RAINFALL. SOME STRONGER BANDS ARE SETTING UP FURTHER
SOUTHWARD THIS AFTERNOON WHERE IT HAS BEEN A LITTLE DRIER...AT LEAST
EARLIER TODAY. FIGURE THIS TREND TO CONTINUE BUT CANNOT RULE OUT
HEAVY RAINFALL ANYWHERE ACROSS EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT. MOS GUIDANCE HAS PRETTY
MUCH GONE 80 PERCENT OR HIGHER FOR POPS ACROSS ALL OF OUR ZONES AND
IT IS EXTREMELY HARD TO BEAT WHEN THAT HIGH. EXPECT AN ADDITIONAL
INCH OR TWO OF RAINFALL THROUGH TONIGHT ACROSS MUCH OF THE
INTERIOR...LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS OF 2 TO 4 INCHES ENTIRELY
POSSIBLE. ALONG THE COAST...ESPECIALLY SOUTHWARD FROM THE CAPE
EXPECT AN ADDITIONAL 2 TO 4 INCHES IN MANY AREAS WITH LOCALLY 3 TO 6
INCHES NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION. A FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES FOR ALL OF
EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA WITH THE EXCEPTION OF LAKE COUNTY.

SOME SQUALLS...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE COAST WILL HAVE GUSTS TO 40 TO 45
MPH. THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL REPORTS OF MINOR TREE DAMAGE IN FUTURE
SQUALLS. WIND ADVISORIES/LAKE WIND ADVISORIES EXIST ALONG THE
COAST/INTERIOR RESPECTIVELY AND ARE IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM.

THE SURF CONTINUES TO BE VERY DANGEROUS...EVEN WITH A SURF
BOARD...AND VENTURING INTO THE OCEAN IS NOT ADVISED. BEACH EROSION
WILL CONTINUE TO ADD UP AND EVENTUALLY WILL BECOME SIGNIFICANT IN
SPOTS. THE HIGH SURF ADVISORY WILL BE EXTENDED THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT
LATE.

SUN-SUN NIGHT...THE STRONG HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE TO THE NORTH WEAKENS
A BIT AS A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE NEAR THE VICINITY OF THE NORTH
CARIBBEAN/SOUTHERN GULF BEGINS TO DEVELOP WITH PRESSURE SLOWLY
DROPPING HERE. THE UPPER LOW PRESSURE OVER THE EASTERN GULF REMAINS
BUT TEMPERATURES ALOFT WILL WARM A FEW DEGREES. HOWEVER...A DEEP
FLOW OF MOISTURE RICH AIR WILL CONTINUE TO FEED INTO THE FLORIDA
PENINSULA KEEPING SHOWER CHANCES AT 80 PERCENT WITH A CONTINUED
THREAT OF ISOLATED STORMS. EASTERLY WINDS WILL REMAIN ELEVATED
ACROSS THE AREA AS THE TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINS SO A LAKE
WIND ADVISORY OR PERHAPS ANOTHER STRAIGHT WIND ADVISORY (COAST) MAY
AGAIN BE POSSIBLE. THE FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING.

...PREVIOUS EXTENDED DISCUSSION...

MON-MON NIGHT...THE EAST COAST RIDGE AXIS WILL GRADUALLY ERODE AS
THE GOMEX LOW PUSHES NORTH AND A HI AMP TROF OVER THE GREAT PLAINS
PUSHES EAST. DRIER AIR OVER THE WRN GOMEX WILL WRAP AROUND THE SRN
PERIPHERY OF THE GOMEX LOW AND INTO FL...RESULTING IN MUCH LWR
PRECIP CHANCES TO START THE WORK WEEK. POPS SLIGHTLY HIGHER ALONG
THE COAST TO ACCOUNT FOR PSBL SEABREEZE FORMATION AND LONGER
DURATION FOR DRY AIR ADVECTION...BUT OVERALL POPS WILL BE AOB 40%.
DECREASED PRECIP AND SWRLY FLOW WILL ALLOW TEMPS TO WARM INTO THE
U80S/L90S INTERIOR... SEA BREEZE ALONG THE COAST WILL KEEP READINGS
IN THE M/U80S.  LIGHT SRLY FLOW OVERNIGHT WILL KEEP MIN TEMPS IN THE
L/M70S.

TUE-FRI...FCST WILL DEPEND ON THE EVOLUTION OF THE GOMEX LOW AND HOW
QUICKLY THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BREAKS DOWN OR MOVES INTO THE WRN
ATLC. GFS/ECMWF HAVE SIMILAR SOLUTIONS THAT BRING THE BROAD CENTER
OF THE SFC LOW ACRS THE FL PENINSULA ON WED THEN OFF THE MID ATLC
COAST BY DAYBREAK THU. SOLUTION SEEMS REASONABLE AS BY MID WEEK A
120KT H30-H20 JET STREAK OVER THE N PAC WILL WORK ITS WAY INTO THE
WRN CONUS AND ADD ITS ENERGY TO THE DEEP TROF ON THE WRN PERIPHERY
OF THE RIDGE. AS THE RIDGE ERODES...THE GOMEX LOW WILL LIFT NE ACRS
THE STATE. NWRLY FLOW ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE LOW WILL PULL DRIER AIR
WILL FILTER INTO FL BY LATE WEEK...DROPPING PRECIP CHANCES BLO
MENTIONABLE LVLS. TEMPS LARGELY WITHIN 2-3F OF CLIMO AVG.

&&

.AVIATION...CONTINUED LIGHT/MODERATE...OCCASIONALLY HEAVIER BANDS OF
RAINFALL CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA. RECENTLY...ACTIVITY HAS FOCUSED
FURTHER SOUTH TOWARDS KVRB...KFPR AND NEAR KSUA. FIGURE THIS
SOUTHWARD TREND COULD CONTINUE THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. HOWEVER...ANYWHERE IN EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA WILL BE PRONE TO
OCCASIONAL HEAVY SQUALLS OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE COAST.
AREAS OF MVFR/IFR CIGS/VSBYS WILL OCCUR THROUGH THE NIGHT. MOS
GUIDANCE SUGGESTS HIGH COVERAGE (80 PERCENT) AREAWIDE AGAIN ON SUN
AND PROSPECTS OF ANOTHER DAY LIKE TODAY (SAT) ARE A POSSIBILITY. THE
TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINS OVER THE AREA WITH MODERATE/STRONG
EASTERLY FLOW CONTINUING ON SUN.

&&

.MARINE...CURRENT-SUN NIGHT...FAIRLY STRONG HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS
STATIONED OVER THE MID ATLC STATES WITH TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE
DEVELOPING OVER THE SOUTHEAST GOMEX/FLORIDA STRAITS. THIS WILL
CONTINUE TO KEEP A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT OVER THE AREA WITH A HIGH
COVERAGE OF SQUALLS.

GALE WARNING CONTINUES THRU THE END OF THE PERIOD. WINDS/SEAS VERY
HAZARDOUS TO SMALL CRAFT. FREQUENT GUSTS TO GALE FORCE IN/OUTSIDE OF
FAST MOVING SQUALLS. MOVEMENT OF SQUALLS OUT OF THE EAST OR
EAST-SOUTHEAST AT 30 TO 35 KTS.

...PREVIOUS EXTENDED MARINE DISCUSSION...

MON-MON NIGHT...WINDS WILL DIMINISH AND VEER TO THE SE AS THE RIDGE
AXIS BEGINS TO WEAKEN AND THE SFC LOW REMAINS TRAPPED OVER THE
GOMEX.  SEAS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH BUT ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN AOA
SCA LVLS THROUGH THE EARLY TUE MORNING.

TUE-WED...S/SW WINDS WILL PREVAIL AS THE GOMEX LOW PUSHES ACRS THE
FL PENINSULA AND WORKS ITS WAY UP THE ERN SEABOARD. SCA SEAS MAY
LINGER OVER THE OFFSHORE LEG INTO TUE AFTN...BUT SHOULD FALL BLO 6FT
AREAWIDE BY DAYBREAK WED.
