Area forecast discussion, May 7, 12:35 PM CDT, 2 hours 30 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL 1235 PM CDT MON MAY 7 2012 .UPDATE... FOR 18Z AVIATION. && .DISCUSSION... VERY MESSY PATTERN WILL CONTINUE ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA THIS AFTERNOON...WITH A SUMMERISH SETUP THIS MORNING BASED ON RADAR AND SATELLITE IMAGERY. SEVERAL MESOSCALE BOUNDARIES LEFTOVER FROM YESTERDAY'S THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY...AS WELL AS NEW BOUNDARIES MOVING INTO THE STATE FROM THE EAST...SOUTH...AND NORTHWEST WILL HELP TO TRIGGER ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE AFTERNOON TODAY. THE PREDOMINANT FEATURE OF INTEREST IS THE MCS MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI MOVING TOWARDS THE EAST- SOUTHEAST. THIS IS ACTUALLY A LEFTOVER COLD POOL FROM A LARGER MCS THAT DEVELOPED DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS OVER WESTERN TENNESSEE AND SOUTHERN MISSOURI. WITH SUFFICIENT INSTABILITIES IN PLACE DURING THE AFTERNOON DUE TO HEATING OF 1500-2000 J/KG AND LI'S OF -5 TO -7 ACROSS WESTERN ALABAMA...THE LARGE COLD POOL BOUNDARY WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND LARGE HAIL (-10 TO -12C AT 500MB) THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. THE MORNING KBMX SOUNDING ALSO INDICATES THIS POSSIBILITY WITH STEEP LAPSE RATES UP TO 700MB...AND FAIRLY STEEP LAPSE RATES THROUGHOUT THE HAIL GROWTH ZONE AS WELL. WE WILL CONTINUE TO WATCH THIS COLD POOL ADVANCE EASTWARD THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND SHOULD REACH THE STATE LINE THROUGH 1PM. ELSEWHERE ACROSS THE STATE...SCATTERED CONVECTION WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS WITH OUTFLOW BOUNDARY COLLISIONS AND INTERSECTIONS EXPECTED TO TRIGGER ADDITIONAL STORMS THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WE OBSERVED YESTERDAY. ANY STORM THAT DEVELOPS WILL PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS...THE POSSIBILITY OF HAIL...AND VERY HEAVY RAINFALL. IN REGARDS TO THE FORECAST...POPS WERE RAISED TO CATEGORICAL TO CAPTURE THE MCS MOVING INTO NORTHWEST AND WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE STATE...AND RAISED POPS TO LIKELY ALL THE WAY EAST TO NEAR THE INTERSTATE 65 CORRIDOR. HIGHS WERE ALSO DROPPED IN THE AREAS THAT WILL OBSERVE THE MCS MOVING THROUGH...BUT HIGHS WERE INCREASED FOR SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF OUR CWA THAT ARE REALLY BEGINNING TO HEAT UP LATE THIS MORNING. UPDATES ARE OUT. 56/GDG && .AVIATION... 18Z TAF DISCUSSION. A LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAS DEVELOPED BACK OVER CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI THIS MORNING AND WILL BE THE FOCUS OF THIS TAF CYCLE. THIS LINE WILL BEGIN TO WORK ITS WAY INTO THE WESTERN REACHES OF THE STATE BY 18Z...AND BEGIN AFFECTING KTCL BY 20Z...SPREADING OVER THE REMAINDER OF OUR SITES OVER THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON. THIS LINE COULD CARRY WIND GUSTS OF 40 MPH AND SMALL HAIL. HAVE ISSUED INITIAL TAFS AS VCTS...AND WILL UPDATE AS WE ARE ABLE TO TIME OUT ARRIVAL AT EACH TERMINAL. AFTER TS...SOME LIGHT RAIN WILL PERSIST...BUT SHOULD DRY UP PRETTY QUICK...LEAVING THE POTENTIAL FOR FOG DEVELOP AFTER MIDNIGHT. HAVE PREVAILED EVERYONE AT MVFR FOR NOW...BUT LOWER VISIBILITIES ARE PROBABLY GOING TO BE POSSIBLE...DEPENDENT ON HOW MUCH RAIN EACH SITE RECEIVES. WINDS SHOULD BE OTHERWISE LIGHT. 27 NOTE***THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IS ISSUING SEASONAL TERMINAL FORECASTS FOR THE TALLADEGA MUNICIPAL AIRPORT (KASN) IN TALLADEGA...ALABAMA. THE FORECASTS WILL LAST THROUGH THE 9TH OF MAY. DUE TO THE LIMITED AVAILABILITY OF OBSERVATIONS...KASN TAF WILL HAVE AMD NOT SKED APPENDED TO THE END OF THE FORECAST. && .BMX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. &&
