AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE TO AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
1159 AM CST MON MAR 7 2011

.AVIATION...(18Z ISSUANCE)...GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED
TODAY...WITH MID/HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS FROM ACTIVITY TO THE WEST
STARTING TO FILTER OVER THE AREA. GUIDANCE IS ADVERTISING
ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE SETTING UP TONIGHT WITH THE SWITCH TO SOUTHEAST
TO SOUTH FLOW OVER THE LOWER MISS RIVER VALLEY AND SOUTHEASTERN
CONUS. THIS WILL MEAN A DROP IN CIGS OVERNIGHT INTO THE MVFR
CATEGORY...THOUGH WITH AN APPROACHING SYSTEM...WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO
BE HIGH ENOUGH TO KEEP VISBYS MVFR OR HIGH TONIGHT. GUIDANCE IS
ADVERTISING A CONTINUING INCREASE IN CLOUD COVER TUESDAY AT THE END
OF THE FORECAST INTO TUESDAY NIGHT...WITH INCREASING LOW LEVEL WINDS
AND DROPPING CIGS TUESDAY NIGHT.

/16

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY AND TONIGHT)...SKIES ARE NOT LIKELY TO STAY CLEAR
EXCEPT IN THE SOUTHWEST. BACK BUILDING DECK OUT OF THE NORTHEAST AND
THEN A MID LEVEL DECK ASSOCIATED WITH A 500MB WATER VAPOR ANOMALY
REACHES IN OUT OF THE NORTHWEST...EXPECTED TO KEEP THE NORTHERN
COUNTIES MOSTLY CLOUDY THROUGH TODAY. HIGH AND MID LEVEL CLOUDS WILL
DISSIPATE TO THE EAST LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING...AND A LOW
STRATUS DECK IS EXPECTED TO ENCROACH FROM THE GULF IN PARTS OF WEST
MISSISSIPPI LATE TONIGHT UNDER AN ISENTROPIC LIFTING ENVIRONMENT.
77/BD

.LONG TERM (TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)...SHORTWAVE ENERGY WILL EJECT OUT
OF THE FOUR CORNERS TUESDAY MORNING...MOVING INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS
BY EARLY WEDNESDAY EVENING. THE LOW LEVEL JET WILL BEGIN TO QUICKLY
RESPOND TO THIS DISTURBANCE WITH SOUTHERLY 850 MB WINDS INCREASING TO
30-35 KT BY 00Z WED. AS THE WARM AIR ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC LIFT
INCREASES DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS...CHANCES FOR LIGHT RAIN WILL BE
ON THE INCREASE OVER INLAND SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI...WITH SMALL
CHANCES SPREADING EAST TOWARD MOBILE BY VERY LATE IN THE DAY.
OBVIOUSLY...THERE IS MUCH INTEREST IN THE FORECAST DUE TO MARDI GRAS
FESTIVITIES. AT THIS POINT...THE MAJORITY OF THE DAY LOOKS DRY WITH
THE ONLY THING FALLING FROM THE SKY BEING BEADS AND MOON PIES. PATCHY
LIGHT RAIN DEVELOPS WEST OF I-65 BY LATE AFTERNOON.

THE ATTENDANT COLD FRONT TO THE VIGOROUS MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE WILL
APPROACH THE MS RIVER BY DAYBREAK WEDNESDAY. THE ECMWF CONTINUES TO
BE SLOWER AND SLIGHTLY MORE AMPLIFIED WITH THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH...
WHICH FAVORS A SLIGHTLY SLOWER FRONTAL PROGRESSION. THE CANADIAN
GEM...NAM...AND SOME OF THE GFS ENSEMBLE MEMBERS SUPPORT A SLIGHTLY
SLOWER SOLUTION. THEREFORE...WILL LEAN TOWARD THE ECMWF FOR THIS
FORECAST PACKAGE. STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION DEVELOPS DURING THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS WEDNESDAY WITH SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOPING...ESPECIALLY OVER THE WESTERN ZONES. THE MODELS HAVE
BECOME A LITTLE MORE AGGRESSIVE BRINGING IN ABOUT 300-500 J/KG OF
MLCAPE BETWEEN 06-12Z ACROSS THE COASTAL ALABAMA AND INLAND SOUTHEAST
MISSISSIPPI. WHILE THIS IS NOT THE FAVORABLE TIME OF NIGHT FOR
INSTABILITY...THE STRONG LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY FLOW AND THE ADVECTION
OF STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES FROM THE SOUTHWEST WILL LIKELY AID IN
AT LEAST MARGINAL SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY. BOTH DEEP LAYER AND LOW
LEVEL SHEAR WILL BE QUITE FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE WEATHER WITH 0-6 KM
BULK SHEAR OF 45-50 KT AND 0-1KM HELICITY OF 200-300 M2/S2.
THEREFORE... ALL MODES OF SEVERE WEATHER (ISOLATED
TORNADOES...DAMAGING WINDS...AND LARGE HAIL) ARE POSSIBLE IF SFC
BASED INSTABILITY CAN BE REALIZED. IF CONVECTION REMAINS SLIGHTLY
ELEVATED...THEN THERE WILL STILL BE A LARGE HAIL THREAT. ANOTHER
CONCERN WILL BE THE POSSIBLE UPSTREAM FORMATION OF A MCS...GIVEN THE
STRONG UPPER LEVEL FORCING AND HEIGHT FALLS SPREADING INTO THE AREA.
TOO EARLY TO PROVIDE ANY MORE SPECIFICS...BUT THE SITUATION WILL BE
CAREFULLY MONITORED. SPC HAS PLACED THE ENTIRE CWA UNDER A SLIGHT
RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER. CANNOT ARGUE WITH THIS...BUT DO FEEL THE
BEST THREAT AT THIS POINT WILL BE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE
AREA WHERE THERE WILL BE A BETTER POTENTIAL FOR SUFFICIENT
INSTABILITY. HIGH CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY WEDNESDAY AS THE FRONT STEADILY PROGRESSES
TO THE EAST. A STRONG TO SEVERE THREAT WILL CONTINUE...BUT MUCH WILL
HINGE UPON THE EVOLUTION OF CONVECTION IN THE EARLY MORNING AND HOW
QUICKLY IT RACES THROUGH OUR AREA IF A MCS DOES INDEED DEVELOP.

ANOTHER THREAT WITH THIS SYSTEM THAT IS JUST AS IMPORTANT IS THE
POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL. THIS EVENT LOOKS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT
WE SAW THIS PAST SATURDAY...IN TERMS OF UPPER LEVEL FORCING (STRONG
DIVERGENCE IN THE RIGHT QUAD OF A N-S UPPER JET ACROSS MS/W TN) AND
PRECIPITABLE WATERS CLIMBING OVER 1.5 INCHES. A SOLID 1-2 INCHES OF
RAIN IS LIKELY ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER
TOTALS OF 3-4 INCHES POSSIBLE. CONSIDERING PORTIONS OF SE MS AND
INTERIOR SW AL SAW 3-4 INCHES OF RAIN ON SATURDAY...THE THREAT FOR
FLOODING WILL BE INCREASED ON WEDNESDAY. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MAY
BECOME NECESSARY FOR PARTS OF THE AREA.

THE COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO MOVE EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA SHORTLY
AFTER MIDNIGHT THURSDAY. COOLER AND DRIER WEATHER WILL SETTLE IN FOR
THE END OF THE WEEK WITH TEMPERATURES BELOW NORMAL...ESPECIALLY
OVERNIGHT LOWS. ZONAL FLOW REDEVELOPS OVER THE WEEKEND...BRINGING A
RETURN TO SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES AND A CONTINUATION OF DRY WEATHER.
34/JFB

&&

.MARINE...WIND TO DECREASE THROUGH THIS EVENING BUT SMALL CRAFT
SHOULD PREPARE TO EXERCISE CAUTION TUESDAY. NORTHEAST WIND WILL
BECOME EAST AND DECREASE...VEERING FURTHER TO SOUTHEAST BY TUESDAY.
ANOTHER FRONT IS EXPECTED TO AFFECT THE MARINE AREA LATE WEDNESDAY
BRINGING SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS...AND STEEPENED WAVE FACE
AND ENHANCED SEA HEIGHTS AFTER FRONTAL PASSAGE.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...NO FIRE WEATHER HEADLINES THROUGH THE PERIOD. HIGH
PRESSURE TO THE NORTH OF THE AREA SHIFTS EAST TODAY WITH
WINDS...ALBEIT LIGHT...SHIFT TO THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST. FAIR TO POOR
DISPERSIONS EXPECTED TODAY GIVEN LIGHT TRANSPORT WINDS AND A SHALLOW
MIXED LAYER (GENERALLY AROUND 3000 FT). SOUTHEAST WINDS INCREASE ON
TUESDAY AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS WITH A STORM SYSTEM
DEVELOPING WELL TO THE WEST. A CHANCE FOR PATCHY LIGHT RAIN DEVELOPS
DURING THE AFTERNOON...MAINLY OVER SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI. ANOTHER
SOAKING RAIN IS EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY AS A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVES
THROUGH THE AREA. 34/JFB

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTH CENTRAL
ALABAMA...SOUTHWEST ALABAMA...THE COASTAL WATERS OF ALABAMA AND
NORTHWEST FLORIDA...NORTHWEST FLORIDA AND SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

HAZARDOUS WEATHER NOT EXPECTED.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

ANOTHER STRONG COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO APPROACH THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER BY EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING AND MOVE ACROSS THE NORTH CENTRAL
GULF COAST DURING THE DAY WEDNESDAY. WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP WITH THIS SYSTEM...STARTING AS
EARLY AS LATE TUESDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUING THROUGH MUCH OF
WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN ANOTHER ROUND OF HEAVY RAIN. RAINFALL
TOTALS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES ARE LIKELY...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY
HIGHER AMOUNTS. GIVEN THE REGION RECENTLY EXPERIENCED A HEAVY
RAINFALL...THE THREAT FOR FLASH FLOODING IS INCREASED WITH THIS
SYSTEM...ESPECIALLY OVER INLAND SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI AND INLAND
SOUTHWEST ALABAMA.

IN ADDITION...THERE WILL BE A CHANCE FOR A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS. UNCERTAINTY STILL EXISTS REGARDING HOW MUCH INSTABILITY WILL
BE PRESENT TO FUEL THE FORMATION OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER...
CURRENT INDICATIONS ARE THAT ENOUGH INSTABILITY WILL BE PRESENT TO
RESULT IN AT LEAST AN ISOLATED THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER...WITH
ISOLATED TORNADOES...DAMAGING WINDS...AND LARGE HAIL ALL BEING
THREATS. MORE DETAILS WILL BE PROVIDED AS THE EVENT DRAWS CLOSER IN
TIME.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED THROUGH TONIGHT. REQUEST
SPOTTERS BE ALERT FOR FURTHER STATEMENTS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.
