AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL
403 PM EDT SUN AUG 26 2012

.DISCUSSION...

...TROPICAL STORM ISAAC APPROACHING THE KEYS THIS EVENING...

THIS AFTERNOON-TONIGHT...SLOWLY STRENGTHENING TROPICAL STORM
ISAAC CONTINUES TO TRACK QUICKLY OFF TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST THIS
AFTERNOON...EXPECTED TO MOVE VERY NEAR KEY WEST LATER THIS
EVENING. THIS MORE WESTERLY TRACK HAS KEPT THE STRONGEST WINDS AND
RAIN BANDS ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA SO FAR TODAY...THE EXCEPTION BEING
ONE PERSISTENT RAINBAND ACROSS MARTIN AND SAINT LUCIE COUNTIES.
SEVERAL ADDITIONAL BANDS OF DISCRETE RAIN SQUALLS HAVE DEVELOPED
ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA...MOST LIKELY AIDED
BY LOWER CLOUD COVER AND MORE HEATING EARLIER TODAY.

FREQUENT GUSTS TO TROPICAL STORM FORCE...40-45 MPH...ARE OCCURRING
WITHIN THE SQUALLS FOR AREAS SOUTH OF SEBASTIAN INLET...WHILE
GUSTS FOR AREAS FURTHER NORTH HAVE SO FAR BEEN IN THE 25-30 MPH
RANGE. ANY SQUALLS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING GUSTS UP TO
TROPICAL STORM FORCE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. AS WINDS BECOME
MORE SOUTHEASTERLY LATER TONIGHT...THERE WILL BE A POTENTIAL FOR
THE INTENSITY OF THE RAIN BANDS TO INCREASE RIGHT ALONG THE
COAST...ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF CAPE CANAVERAL...DUE TO COASTAL
CONVERGENCE. THIS COULD LEAD TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AMOUNTS IN
EXCESS OF 2-3 INCHES IN AN HOUR.

WHILE A FEW SQUALLS WITHIN THESE BANDS HAVE SHOWN WEAK ROTATION...SO
FAR THE STRONGEST CELLS HAVE REMAINED JUST SOUTH AS WELL. HOWEVER
IT WILL NOT TAKE MUCH FOR SQUALLS TO DEVELOP STRONGER ROTATION
THIS AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT...AND BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING A
TORNADO AS THEY QUICKLY MOVE ONSHORE AND ACROSS THE INTERIOR.

THE CURRENT PATTERN OF SQUALLY WEATHER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS...WITH THE INTENSITY AND COVERAGE GRADUALLY
DIMINISHING AFTER DAYBREAK AS ISAAC MOVES INTO THE EASTERN GULF
AND PULLS FURTHER AWAY FROM EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

REFER TO THE TROPICAL STORM LOCAL STATEMENT FROM NWS MELBOURNE FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION CONCERNING ISAAC.

MONDAY-TUESDAY... A STRENGTHENING ISAAC WILL BE MOVING FURTHER
WEST-NORTHWEST OVER THE EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO DURING THE FIRST
PART OF THE WEEK AND THE DIRECT IMPACTS FROM WHAT IS EXPECTED TO
BECOME A CATEGORY 2 HURRICANE WILL DIMINISH DURING THE AFTERNOON
HOURS ON MONDAY.

THE LOW LEVEL WIND FIELDS WILL REMAIN QUITE STRONG OVER THE AREA
DUE TO THE LARGE SIZE OF ISAAC AND WE WILL REMAIN IN A VERY MOIST
ENVIRONMENT FOR BOTH MONDAY AND TUESDAY. OUTSIDE OF ANY
SQUALLS...THE FLOW AROUND ISAAC WILL BRING WINDY SOUTHEAST FLOW
OVER THE REGION MONDAY. NUMEROUS SQUALLS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT
THE AREA PRODUCING STRONG WIND GUSTS...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND
POSSIBLE TORNADOES. IF MORE BREAKS DEVELOP IN THE CLOUD
COVER ON MONDAY...STRONGER STORMS MAY BECOME A HIGHER CONCERN IN
THE UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT.

COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL DECREASE SLIGHTLY ON TUESDAY
AS ISAAC IS FORECAST TO BE APPROACHING THE NORTHERN GULF COAST
NEAR ALABAMA AND MISSISSIPPI. SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL STILL
REMAIN BREEZY ON TUESDAY AND A FEW MORE BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER
WILL ALLOW HIGHS TO REACH THE UPPER 80S/LOW 90S.

FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
WED-SAT...LONG TERM MODEL SOLUTIONS SHOW DIVERGING TRACKS...LEADING
TO GREATER UNCERTAINTY WITH ISAAC INTO MID WEEK WITH DIFFERENT
LANDFALL SCENARIOS ALONG THE NRN GULF COAST. THE LATEST OFFICIAL
NHC TRACK OF ISSAC FROM THE 2 PM ADVISORY BRINGS THE SYSTEM
ONSHORE ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI COAST EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING AS A
STRONG CATEGORY 2 HURRICANE. SOUTHERLY FLOW IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST
OVER THE REGION KEEPING ENOUGH MOISTURE IN PLACE TO PRODUCE
SCATTERED AFTERNOON SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY EACH DAY.
TEMPERATURES TO REACH NEAR TO ABOVE NORMAL VALUES THROUGH THE
EXTENDED FORECAST PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION...
BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS CONTINUE WITH OCCASIONAL SQUALLS INTO
MONDAY MORNING ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION. PREVAILING MVFR CIGS
FL020-030 CONTINUING WITH THE HIGHEST COVERAGE OF SHRA SOUTH OF
MLB-ISM LINE. MAIN CONCERN WILL BE WIND G40KT IN SQUALLS ALONG
WITH TEMPO IFR CIGS/VSBYS WITH EMBEDDED TSRA.

&&

.MARINE...
THIS AFTERNOON-TONIGHT...SMALL CRAFT SHOULD REMAIN IN PORT OVER
ALL COASTAL AREAS. STRONG WINDS DUE TO THE PASSAGE OF TS ISAAC
ACROSS THE FLORIDA KEYS TONIGHT WILL INCREASE SEA HEIGHTS OVER THE
OPEN ATLANTIC WATERS...PEAKING EARLY MONDAY MORNING. INTRACOASTAL
WATERS WILL REMAIN ROUGH TO VERY ROUGH AT TIMES DURING PASSAGE OF
SQUALLS.

MON-THU...HAZARDOUS BOATING CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE INTO EARLY THIS
WEEK WITH ISSAC MOVING NORTHWEST THROUGH THE GULF OF MEXICO AND
STRENGTHENING TO A CATEGORY 2 HURRICANE. STRONG SOUTHEAST WINDS
WILL CONTINUE OVER THE WATERS MONDAY WITH NUMEROUS SQUALLS FROM
THE OUTER BANDS OF ISAAC STILL IMPACTING THE AREA. WINDS AND SEAS
WILL START A GRADUAL DECLINE INTO MID WEEK AS ISAAC MAKES LANDFALL
OVER THE NORTHERN GULF COAST AND CONTINUING INTO THE DEEP SOUTH.
