AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
235 PM EST THU JAN 6 2011
.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT-SATURDAY NIGHT)...
THE AMPLIFIED UPPER PATTERN OVER THE COUNTRY CHARACTERIZED WITH
BROAD UPPER TROUGHING OVER THE EASTERN STATES AND RIDGING OVER THE
WEST COAST WILL REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH MUCH OF THE PERIOD. SEVERAL
SHORTWAVES TRANSLATING SOUTHEAST FROM THE NRN PLAINS TO THE
SOUTHEAST REGION WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN THIS LONGWAVE TROUGH OVER
THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. AT THE SURFACE...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD
OVER THE REGION TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY WITH LIGHT WNW WINDS CONTINUING.
THIS COOL/DRY AIR COMBINED WITH THE WINDS WILL LEAD TO SEVERAL HOURS
WITH WIND CHILLS DIPPING INTO THE LOW 30S LATE TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY
MORNING ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA. MOSTLY SUNNY CONDITIONS WITH
TEMPERATURES CLIMBING INTO THE LOW TO MID 60S WILL BE EXPECTED
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON PERIOD FRIDAY. ANOTHER SURGE OF DRY AIR WILL
SPREAD SOUTH OVER THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING AS A
SHORTWAVE/DRY FRONT MOVES THROUGH. LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE MID TO
UPPER 30S ARE EXPECTED AROUND DAYBREAK SATURDAY...THEN ONLY CLIMBING
INTO THE MID TO UPPER 50S SATURDAY AFTERNOON UNDER MOSTLY SUNNY
SKIES. DEW POINTS WILL DIP INTO THE 20S OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF
THE AREA SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. LATE SATURDAY
NIGHT...THE MODELS REMAIN IN DECENT AGREEMENT AND SHOW A STRONG
SHORTWAVE TROUGH TRANSLATING EAST FROM THE FOUR CORNERS REGION TO
TEXAS. CYCLOGENESIS WILL RESULT ALONG THE TX COAST BY THE END OF
THE PERIOD. AS THIS LOW DEVELOPS AND HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS EAST
NORTH OF THE AREA...THE LOCAL WINDS WILL BEGIN TO VEER TOWARD THE
EAST AS A WARM FRONT BEGINS TO LIFT NORTH OVER THE NRN GULF.
&&
.LONG TERM (SUNDAY THROUGH NEXT THURSDAY)...
GLOBAL GUIDANCE SUITE HAS COME INTO MUCH BETTER AGREEMENT WITH
RESPECT TO THE EVOLUTION OF A STRONG SHORTWAVE IMPULSE AND
ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW THAT WILL MOVE ALONG THE NORTHERN GULF COAST
DURING THE SECOND HALF OF THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. GFS WHICH HAD
SUPPRESSED THIS LOW WELL TO THE SOUTH 24 HOURS AGO...HAS COME AROUND
TO THE MORE CONSISTENT ECMWF/GEM SOLUTIONS WHICH SLIDE A SLOWLY
FILLING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE FROM THE UPPER TEXAS COAST EARLY SUNDAY
TO A POSITION OVER OUR FORECAST AREA EARLY MONDAY.
SURFACE PATTERN TO START THE EXTENDED PERIOD OFF SATURDAY NIGHT WILL
FEATURE A RATHER COLD AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE TO OUR NORTH OVER THE TN
VALLEY AND DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE ALONG THE UPPER TEXAS COAST.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE CHILLY SATURDAY NIGHT WITH WIDESPREAD LOWER TO
MIDDLE 30S FOR OVERNIGHT LOWS.
CLOUDS SHOULD THICKEN QUICKLY ON SUNDAY AS THE SHORTWAVE AND SURFACE
LOW BEGIN TO PROGRESS EASTWARD TOWARD THE REGION. WILL INTRODUCE
POPS BACK INTO THE FORECAST DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS...WITH
HIGHEST RAIN CHANCES OVER THE WESTERN/NORTHERN ZONES WHERE
ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE SHOULD BE MAXIMIZED. STILL APPEARS THAT THE BEST
CHANCES FOR STEADY RAIN WILL WAIT TILL SUNDAY NIGHT WHEN THE LOW
ARRIVES NEAR THE FL PANHANDLE COAST. WARM FRONTAL POSITION UNDER
THIS SCENARIO WOULD BE ALONG THE COAST. EVEN IF THIS SYNOPTIC FRONT
DOES MAKE SOME MOVEMENT INLAND WITH TIME...A SECONDARY COASTAL FRONT
ASSOCIATED WITH THE COOLER SHELF WATERS SHOULD KEEP ANY SURFACE
INSTABILITY FROM PUSHING INLAND. THEREFORE NOT EXPECTING A SEVERE
THREAT FOR MOST OF THE AREA. MAIN CONCERN WITH THIS SYSTEM RIGHT NOW
LOOKS TO BE UP TOWARD DOTHAN AND ALBANY. SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND SUNDAY
EVENING...THE ARRIVING PRECIP WILL BE FALLING INTO A CHILLY/AND
STILL DRY AIRMASS. GFS BUFKIT PROFILES FOR DOTHAN AND ALBANY ARE
ADVERTISING A BORDERLINE FREEZING RAIN EVENT AS A RESULT OF
SIGNIFICANT WET-BULBING OF THE LOW LEVEL PROFILE. DID LOWERED THE
MEX TEMPS OVER OUR NORTHERN AREAS FOR SUNDAY...HOWEVER NOT QUITE
COLD ENOUGH TO ADD FREEZING RAIN CHANCES TO THE GRIDS. THIS
POTENTIAL FOR A MINOR ICING EVENT WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED VERY
CLOSELY AS THE DETAIL OF THIS SYSTEM BECOME MORE CLEAR.
THE LOW WILL PULL OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST DURING MONDAY...WITH DRY
CONDITIONS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. THIS DEPARTING
SYSTEM ALONG WITH A STRONG AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE DROPPING SOUTH FROM
CANADA INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL DRIVE ANOTHER WELL BELOW NORMAL
AIRMASS INTO THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES BY THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.
THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR WIDESPREAD FREEZING TEMPS BOTH NEXT
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHTS.
&&
.AVIATION...MVFR DECK FROM THIS MORNING HAS JUST ABOUT SCATTERED OUT
AT ALL TERMINALS THIS AFTERNOON. WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING
IN...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS AT ALL TERMINALS THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...THE DRY AIRMASS CURRENTLY IN PLACE WILL BE
REINFORCED BY SATURDAY AS A DRY COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH. WARMER
TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY WILL LEAD TO MARGINAL RED FLAG CONDITIONS FOR
A FEW INLAND PANHANDLE COUNTIES FRIDAY AFTERNOON...AND WILL ISSUE A
FIRE WEATHER WATCH. LARGER AREA OF CRITICAL RH EXPECTED SATURDAY
AFTERNOON AND HAVE ISSUED FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR MOST OF THE FLORIDA
ZONES.
&&
.MARINE...
MODERATE NORTHWEST WINDS IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT WILL
REACH SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS THIS EVENING AND CONTINUE INTO
SATURDAY BEFORE TEMPORARILY SUBSIDING SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT.
THE HIGHEST SEAS WILL REMAIN OFFSHORE OR BEYOND 10 TO 20 NM FROM
THE COAST THROUGH THIS TIME. NORTHERLY WINDS WILL QUICKLY VEER
TOWARD THE SOUTH AND INCREASE ONCE AGAIN SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
SUNDAY AS STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM APPROACHES THE NORTHEAST
GULF FROM THE WEST. THIS NEXT SYSTEM WILL LIKELY BRING ANOTHER
PERIOD WITH ELEVATED WINDS AND SEAS ALONG WITH INCREASING RAINFALL
CHANCES SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY.
