Area forecast discussion, May 22, 3:03 PM EDT, 4 hours 18 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSONVILLE FL
303 PM EDT TUE MAY 22 2012

...SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THIS EVENING...

.SHORT TERM...
THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT...A MID AND UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
PRESENTLY OVER WERN GA TO SE AL AND THE FL PANHANDLE WILL
PROGRESS EWD WITH COOLER TEMPS ALOFT (-13C TO -15C IN SE GA) AND
DAYTIME INSTABILITY ENABLING ISOLATED TO SCT CONVECTION TO
DEVELOP. CURRENT RADAR TRENDS SUGGEST INCREASING INSTABILITY WITH
SCT SHOWERS AND STORMS FROM NEAR ST AUGUSTINE TO NEAR OCALA. THIS
IS IN RESPONSE TO EARLIER OUTFLOW BOUNDARY AND W COAST SEA BREEZE.
NONE OF THE MODELS SEEM TO BE LATCHING ONTO THE CURRENT CONVECTION
VERY WELL. FOR THIS EVENING...WILL MAINTAIN 40 TO NEAR 50% SHOWER/TSTMS
CHANCES ALONG THE E COAST AND OVER SECTIONS OF SE GA AND ABOUT 30%
ELSEWHERE AND THEN LOWER TO SLIGHT CHANCE OR LESS AROUND MIDNIGHT.
INCREASED STORM ORGANIZATION POSSIBLE AS MID LEVEL FLOW INCREASES
THROUGH THE EVENING WITH MULTI-CELLS CLUSTERS POSSIBLE...AND MORE
DISCRETE THUNDERSTORM CELLS OVER THE S ZONES. LOWS TONIGHT WILL BE
IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S. WON'T RULE OUT SOME PATCHY FOG LATE
TONIGHT WITH LIGHT WINDS/WEAK PRES GRADIENT IN PLACE.

WED AND THU...DEEP LAYER MOISTURE AND SUBSIDENCE INCREASES OVER
THE AREA AS THE TROUGH LIFTS OUT TO THE NE. MAX TEMPS AROUND 87
TO 92 BOTH DAYS. HOWEVER...ON WED A SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVES INTO
THE WRN GULF AND INTO THE CENTRAL GULF BY 12Z THU. THIS SYSTEM
APPEARS TO INDUCE SFC LOW DEVELOPMENT...PERHAPS IN THE FORM OF
ELONGATED TROUGHING FROM WRN CUBA TO BAHAMAS ON THU. WHAT THIS
WILL TRANSLATE IN FOR US IS A TRANSITION TO A S AND PERHAPS SE
LLVL FLOW BY THU. LIKE YESTERDAY...THE GUIDANCE HAS BEEN SHOWING
ONSHORE FLOW DEVELOPING LATER IN THE WEEK. FOR NOW...WILL MAINTAIN
SLIGHT SHOWER/TSTM CHANCES OVER THE ERN ZONES AND COASTAL WATERS
BOTH WED AND THU...THOUGH THE BETTER CHANCES SHOULD EXIST ON THU
AS PWATS INCREASE FROM 1 INCH ON WED TO ABOUT 1.4 INCHES ON THU.
ON FRI...MOST OF THE GUIDANCE KEEPS HIGHER DEEPER LAYER MOISTURE E
AND S OF THE AREA AND AN ELY FLOW. ONLY LOW END POPS EXPECTED AT
THIS TIME WITH HIGHS AGAIN IN UPPER 80S AND LOWER 90S AS A DEEP
LAYER HIGH PRES RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE MS VALLEY.

.LONG TERM...SAT-TUE.
STRONG HIGH PRES AT SFC AND ALOFT SHIFTS NE INTO THE TN VALLEY ON
SAT WHILE WEAK TROUGHING REMAINS OVER THE WRN ATLC INTO THE BAHAMAS
TO NEAR SRN FL AND THE SE GULF OF MEXICO. AN ELY FLOW LOOKS MOST
PROBABLE WITH SFC HIGH TO OUR N AND ANTICIPATE ONLY LOW END RAIN
CHANCES AND WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPS. DUE TO THE MODEL VARIABILITY
AND SOLUTIONS SUN THROUGH TUE...HAVE NOT MADE ANY OTHER CHANGES TO
THE FORECAST ATTM.

&&

.AVIATION...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND POTENTIALLY
IMPACT SSI...JAX...AND VQQ AFTER 20Z...WITH ACTIVITY AT CRG POSSIBLY
BEGINNING BY 20Z. PLEASE CHECK FOR AMENDMENTS LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND INTO THE EVENING HOURS FOR UPDATES ON TIMING AND INTENSITY.
MAINLY SOUTHWEST WINDS OF 10 TO 20 KNOTS FROM JUST OFF THE SURFACE
UP TO 10000 FEET WILL BECOME SOUTHWEST AND INCREASE TO 15 TO 20
KNOTS ABOVE 4000 FEET AT THE AREA TERMINALS AFTER 00Z.

&&

.MARINE...
SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL NEAR CAUTION CRITERIA OVER THE
OFFSHORE WATERS THIS EVENING. WAVES OFFSHORE WILL BUILD TO NEAR 5
FEET. WINDS WILL SUBSIDE BELOW CAUTION CRITERIA OVER THE OFFSHORE
WATERS DURING THE PREDAWN HOURS. SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH WINDS WILL ONCE
AGAIN BRIEFLY INCREASE TO NEAR CAUTION CRITERIA OVER THE OFFSHORE
WATERS ON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. WINDS AND SEAS WILL BUILD
BEGINNING LATE THURSDAY AS LOWER PRESSURES DEVELOP OVER THE BAHAMAS
AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC...TIGHTENING OUR
LOCAL PRESSURE GRADIENT. CAUTION OR SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED FROM FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

RIP CURRENTS:
A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE EVENING
HOURS DUE TO A LINGERING EASTERLY LONG PERIOD SWELL. A MODERATE RISK
MAY CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY AS ONSHORE WINDS BEGIN TO INCREASE.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
MINIMUM RH'S WILL FALL TO AROUND 35 PERCENT OVER PORTIONS OF THE
REGION ON WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER...DURATIONS ARE CURRENTLY IN QUESTION
AND RED FLAG HEADLINES HAVE NOT BEEN ISSUED FOR TOMORROW.
