AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
1155 PM CDT SAT AUG 25 2012

AVIATION [06Z TAF ISSUANCE]...SKY AND CIG AT VFR LEVELS NEXT 24 HRS.
LIGHT/VARIABLE OVERNIGHT. NORTHEAST WINDS AROUND 6 KTS DURING THE
DAY SUNDAY. /10

.UPDATE...FORECASTERS HAVE UPDATED THE LAND ZONE AND COASTAL WATERS
FORECAST FOR THE VERY LATEST PROBABILITIES (26.00UTC) REGARDING
TROPICAL STORM/HURRICANE CONDITIONS EARLY NEXT WEEK W/APPROACH OF ISAAC.
PROBABILITIES ALONG WITH WIND FORECASTS SUGGEST THAT HURRICANE
CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE WITHIN THE COASTAL ZONES BY TUESDAY NIGHT.
ALSO UPDATED IS THE LATEST WINDS AROUND ISAAC'S CENTER OF
CIRCULATION AS IT TRACKS NORTHWARD TOWARD THE WESTERN FLORIDA
PANHANDLE TUESDAY/TUESDAY NIGHT.
/10

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 341 PM CDT SAT AUG 25 2012/

SHORT TERM /TONIGHT/...SURFACE RIDGING WILL GIVE WAY TO A WEAK
DISTURBANCE THAT WILL TRACK ACROSS THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
OVERNIGHT. SURFACE MOISTURE HAS INCREASED FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS
THE AREA AS PER POINT FORECAST SOUNDINGS AND PRECIPITABLE WATER
VALUES. HAVE MAINTAINED LOW POPS OVERNIGHT ACROSS SOUTHEAST
MISSISSIPPI. LOWS TONIGHT IN THE MID 60S INLAND TO LOWER 70S ALONG
THE COAST. 01/JC

LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...ALL EYES REMAIN ON THE TROPICS
AS ISAAC SLOWLY ADVANCES TOWARD THE GULF OF MEXICO.  WHILE THE
WEATHER SHOULD REMAIN RELATIVELY RAIN FREE THROUGH THE DAY ON
MONDAY...CONDITIONS WILL BEGIN TO DETERIORATE LATE MONDAY NIGHT AND
INTO TUESDAY AS WHAT IS EXPECTED TO BE HURRICANE ISAAC APPROACHES
THE AREA. THE LATEST 25/1200Z GFS MODEL DATA NOW SHOW THE CENTER OF
ISAAC DIRECTLY AFFECTING SOUTHERN ALABAMA TUESDAY NIGHT AND INTO
WEDNESDAY MORNING. MEANWHILE...THE ECMWF HAS DONE A REVERSAL AND
PULLED ITS SOLUTION FURTHER TO THE EAST TOWARD APALACHICOLA. THE
TROPICAL MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS IS ALSO IN DECENT AGREEMENT AS WELL
BRINGING THE SYSTEM SOMEWHERE ALONG THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE WESTWARD
TOWARD SOUTHERN ALABAMA. SURFACE LEVEL HAND ANALYSIS DEPICTS THE HIGH
PRESSURE FEATURE ACROSS THE EAST COAST NOT AS PRONOUNCED AS THE GFS
INITIALIZATION. THIS MAY RESULT IN THE 26/0000Z GFS RUN SWINGING ITS
SOLUTION BACK TO THE EAST IF THE INITIALIZATION PACKAGE REFLECTS A
TRUER OBSERVATION. THAT BEING SAID...THERE IS STILL UNCERTAINTY AS
TO WHERE ISAAC WILL EVENTUALLY END UP 3 TO 4 DAYS FROM NOW...AND HOW
STRONG IT WILL BE. IT IS LIKELY THOUGH THAT THE STORM WILL HAVE AN
IMPACT SOMEWHERE ALONG THE CENTRAL OR EASTERN US GULF COAST EARLY TO
THE MIDDLE PART OF NEXT WEEK...AND THE STORM SHOULD BE MONITORED
CAREFULLY OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.  IT CANNOT BE STRESSED ENOUGH THAT
NO ONE SHOULD BE FOCUSING ON THE EXACT FORECAST PATH OF THE STORM
THIS EARLY.  INSTEAD...FOCUS ON THE PROBABILISTIC FORECASTS WHICH
WILL GIVE YOU A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH
THIS STORM.

CURRENTLY...OUR SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI COUNTIES HAVE A 40-50 PERCENT
PROBABILITY OF EXPERIENCING TROPICAL STORM FORCE CONDITIONS WITHIN
THE NEXT 120 HOURS. TO PUT THAT IN PERSPECTIVE...A 50 PERCENT CHANCE
IS A ONE IN TWO CHANCE OF EXPERIENCING TROPICAL STORM FORCE
WINDS...WHICH ARE DEFINED AS WINDS BETWEEN 39 MPH AND 73 MPH.

ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN ALABAMA...THE PROBABILITIES RANGE FROM 40-60
PERCENT AND ACROSS ESCAMBIA...SANTA ROSA...AND OKALOOSA COUNTIES IN
FLORIDA...THE CHANCES INCREASE FROM 50-70 PERCENT.  TO PUT THAT INTO
PERSPECTIVE...A 66 PERCENT CHANCE IS APPROXIMATELY A TWO IN THREE
CHANCE OF EXPERIENCING TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS. IN ADDITION...THE
EXTREME WESTERN FLORIDA PANHANDLE HAS 20-30 PERCENT CHANCE OF
EXPERIENCING SEVERE WINDS /58 MPH OR GREATER/ WITHIN THE NEXT 120
HOURS.

FOR NOW...THE FORECAST CALLS FOR WINDS AND PRECIPITATION TO BE
INCREASING MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. EARLY ESTIMATES AND
FORECASTS INDICATE THAT MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY RAINFALL TOTALS OF
5 TO 7 INCHES...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS...WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER
PART OF THE FORECAST AREA...PRIMARILY EAST AND SOUTH OF THE I-65
CORRIDOR. CURRENT THINKING IS THAT TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS WILL BE
POSSIBLE ACROSS PARTS OF THE FORECAST AREA LATE MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH
EARLY WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 90S ACROSS MOST OF THE
REGION ON SUNDAY...THEN IN THE MID 80S TO NEAR 90 DURING THE EARLY
PART OF THE WEEK AS INCREASED CLOUDS/PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED. LOWS
GENERALLY RANGING FROM THE UPPER 60S TO MIDDLE 70S. 01/JC

MARINE...A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE CENTRAL GULF COAST
REGION AND NORTH CENTRAL GULF WILL HELP MAINTAIN A LIGHT TO MODERATE
EAST TO SOUTHEAST WIND FLOW THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL
BECOME MORE EAST AND NORTHEASTERLY SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH EARLY MONDAY
NIGHT WHILE GRADUALLY INCREASING...ALONG WITH SLOWLY BUILDING SEAS.
THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER CALLS FOR TROPICAL STORM ISAAC TO
BECOME A HURRICANE AS IT LIFTS NORTHWEST ACROSS THE FLORIDA STRAITS
LATE SUNDAY...TRACKING NORTH TO NORTHWEST ACROSS THE EASTERN AND
CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO MONDAY THROUGH MIDWEEK. EXPECT WINDS AND SEAS
TO TREND MUCH HIGHER ACROSS THE MARINE AREA EARLY TUESDAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY AS ISAAC TRACKS TO THE NORTH AND NORTHWEST. STAY TUNED TO
THE LATEST FORECASTS AND ADVISORIES ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL HURRICANE
CENTER. 32/EE

FIRE WEATHER...HUMIDITY VALUES WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE OVER THE
AREA THROUGH SUNDAY. GENERALLY LIGHT EASTERLY SURFACE WINDS WILL
PREVAIL ..BUT WILL LIKELY SWING BETWEEN NORTHEAST AND SOUTHEAST AT
TIMES THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEKEND. WIND INCREASING SUNDAY THROUGH
EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH THE APPROACH OF ISAAC. 01/JC
