AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED

.UPDATE...
FOR AVIATION.

.AVIATION...
18Z TAF DISCUSSION.

ALTHOUGH CIGS HAVE BEEN ERODING THIS MORNING...THAT HAS ALLOWED
HEATING WHICH IS ALLOWING CONVECTION TO BEGIN DEVELOPING AHEAD OF
THE APPROACHING LINE THAT AS OF 1745Z WAS NEAR THE MS/AL STATE
LINE. LIGHT TO MODERATE SHRA ARE SCATTERED ACROSS SC AL AND
SPREADING/DEVELOPING TO THE NE. INTRODUCING TSRA WITH BOTH THE
APPROACH OF THE LINE AND EXPECTING CONVECTION AHEAD OF THE LINE TO
INTENSIFY AS WELL AND BECOMING TSRA. SRLY WINDS HAVE PICKED UP AND
WILL REMAIN GUSTY THROUGH THE FROPA. SOME STRONGER WINDS ARE
POSSIBLE IN THE STRONGER STORMS...WITH HEAVIER DOWNPOURS POSSIBLE
TO REDUCE VSBYS EVEN MORE THAN IN TAFS BRIEFLY. SOME MVFR/IFR
CIGS WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR A FEW HOURS BEHIND THE FRONT BEFORE
CLEARING FROM W TO E DURING THE PRE DAWN HRS W TO THE MID MORNING
SE.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1129 AM CDT THU APR 11 2013/

UPDATE...
MORNING UPDATE.

DISCUSSION...

UPDATED WX GRIDS/ZONES DUE TO SLOWER TIMING OF STORMS. MADE A FEW
TWEAKS TO DAYTIME TEMPERATURE WITH SLOWER PROGRESS OF
STORMS AS WELL...MAINLY NW. LOW CIGS ARE ERODING AND HELPING FOR
SFC TEMPERATURES TO RISE AHEAD OF LINE...WHICH UNFORTUNATELY IS
NOT GOOD AS WILL HELP TO DESTABILIZE FOR STORM DEVELOPMENT AHEAD
OF LINE. DEW POINTS WERE DELAYED RECEDING AS WELL DUE TO SLOWER
PROGRESS BEFORE DRIER AIR MOVES IN. LATEST NAM APPEARS TO HAVE
INITIALIZED WELL WITH RESPECTS TO DEW PTS AND WINDS SO USED THAT
AS MY STARTING POINT FOR UPDATES. UPDATE ALREADY OUT.

08/MK

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1030 AM CDT THU APR 11 2013/

UPDATE...
MESOSCALE UPDATE.

DISCUSSION...

RADAR AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE THAT THE COLD FRONT IS
VERY SLOWLY MAKING EASTWARD PROGRESS ACROSS CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI.
CONVECTION NEAR THE FRONT REMAINS RATHER UNIMPRESSIVE...BUT
TEMPERATURES ARE ON THE RISE ACROSS THE CWA WITH ONLY SCATTERED TO
BROKEN LOW CLOUDS. A PATTERN OF BROAD UPPER LEVEL DIFFLUENCE IS
CURRENTLY OVERSPREADING THE REGION WHICH SUPPORTS THE IDEA OF
CELLULAR DEVELOPMENT WELL AHEAD OF THE FRONT FOR THE AFTERNOON
HOURS. MIXED LAYER CAPE VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE INTO RANGE
OF 1000-1500 J/KG THROUGH MID AFTERNOON. THIS SHOULD ALLOW MORE
VIGOROUS THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO DEVELOP WELL AHEAD OF THE FRONT
WITH THE HELP OF THE DIFFLUENT UPPER JET. A STRONG SHORTWAVE
APPROACHING FROM TEXAS WILL BE THE KEY TO HOW THIS EVENT UNFOLDS.
GENERALLY SPEAKING...ALL OF THE MODELS INDICATE A STRENGTHENING OF
THE LOW-LEVEL JET AS THIS FEATURE APPROACHES DURING THE LATE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. THE EVENTUAL POSITION OF THE
STRONGEST LOW-LEVEL WINDS IS UNCERTAIN...BUT THE LATEST RAP MODEL
RUN INDICATES THAT PERHAPS THE SOUTHERN TWO-THIRDS OF THE CWA MAY
BE UNDER THE GREATEST THREAT FOR DAMAGING WINDS AND A FEW
TORNADOES. THE ENHANCED THREAT MAY NOT BEGIN UNTIL THE 22-00Z
TIME FRAME GENERALLY NEAR AND EAST OF I-65.

TO RECAP THE OVERALL SCENARIO...THE EVOLUTION OF THIS EVENT
REMAINS SOMEWHAT UNCERTAIN BUT CELLULAR DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED
AHEAD OF AN ORGANIZING QLCS THROUGH THE DURATION OF THE EVENT. THE
THREAT FOR DAMAGING WINDS AND A FEW TORNADOES WILL INCREASE
ESPECIALLY TOWARDS THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. LOW LEVEL
SHEAR STRENGTH WILL HOLD THE KEY TO THE TORNADO THREAT WITH ANY
STORMS TODAY AND THIS WILL BE CLOSELY WATCHED.

87/GRANTHAM

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 513 AM CDT THU APR 11 2013/

DISCUSSION...

THE WATCHING AND WAITING GAME HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN ACROSS CENTRAL
ALABAMA IN TERMS OF THE SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL TODAY. THE
SHORTWAVE TROUGH THAT WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR SEVERE WEATHER
THREAT IS CURRENTLY ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE LONGWAVE TROUGH
ACROSS CENTRAL TEXAS BASED ON IR SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE SHORTWAVE
WILL RAPIDLY EJECT EASTWARD BY THIS AFTERNOON. MEANWHILE...THE
UPPER RIDGE OVER THE SOUTHEAST CONUS HAS CAUSED THE ENTIRE
LONGWAVE TROUGH TO SLOW TO A CRAWL...AND THE COLD FRONT HAS REALLY
NOT ADVANCED VERY FAR TO THE EAST AT ALL THIS MORNING. SURFACE OBS
CURRENTLY ARE PRESENTING THE COLD FRONT TO BE DRAPED BASICALLY
ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER AS OF THIS WRITING...PERHAPS A BIT TO
THE EAST OF THE RIVER. WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND STORMS HAVE BEEN
PERSISTING THROUGHOUT THE MORNING WITH MOST OF THE ACTIVITY ALONG
AND ACTUALLY BEHIND THE FRONT.

LOW LEVEL MOISTURE HAS BEEN ON THE INCREASE THIS MORNING...WITH
MID 60S DEW POINTS ALREADY BEING OBSERVED AT DEMOPOLIS AND
MERIDIAN MISSISSIPPI. AS THE LOW LEVEL JET KICKS IN THROUGH THE
MID-MORNING HOURS TODAY...MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO SURGE
NORTHWARD. AT LEAST MID 60S DEW POINTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE PRESENT
ACROSS ALL OF CENTRAL ALABAMA...WITH UPPER 60S TO NEAR 70
DEW POINTS ACROSS SOUTHERN ALABAMA. THE VERY MOIST AIRMASS ALONG
WITH THE LOW LEVEL JET AND PLENTY OF UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE WILL
SERVE TO ENHANCE SEVERE STORM DEVELOPMENT. WHAT IS ALSO CONCERNING
BASED ON THE LATEST SUITE OF GUIDANCE THIS MORNING ARE THE
INSTABILITIES THAT ARE BEING PRESENTED BY THE HI-RES MODELS
THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE NSSL WRF...WHICH I HAVE
SEEN PERFORM FAIRLY WELL OVER THE PAST FEW SEVERE EVENTS IN TERMS
OF REALIZING INSTABILITY AMOUNTS...IS ADVERTISING 1500-2000 J/KG
OF MU CAPE AFTER 21Z GENERALLY ALONG AND EAST OF THE INTERSTATE 65
CORRIDOR. OUR LOCAL 9KM WRF IS ALSO IN AGREEMENT WITH THIS
SOLUTION.

SO...INSTABILITIES SURE DON'T LOOK TO BE A PROBLEM TODAY...IF THEY
ARE IN FACT REALIZED. LOOKING NEXT INTO THE WIND PROFILES...
FORECAST SOUNDINGS ARE STILL ADVERTISING MORE OF A LINEAR MODE OF
CONVECTION AT LEAST TO START OUT THE DAY ACROSS OUR WESTERN
COUNTIES AND NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES. THE EXPECTED SQUALL LINE
SHOULD BE ENTERING OUR WESTERN AND NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES ROUGHLY
FROM 9AM TO 12PM BASED ON THE LATEST TRENDS. THINGS THEN BECOME
TRICKY IN TERMS OF TIMING OF SEVERE WEATHER AND THE MODES OF
CONVECTION INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. AS THE SHORTWAVE GETS ITS ACT
TOGETHER TO OUR WEST...THE TROUGH AXIS IS EXPECTED TO BECOME
NEGATIVELY TILTED. IN ADDITION...HI-RES MODELS ARE PICKING UP ON A
LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING ALONG THE COLD FRONT NEAR MERIDIAN
MISSISSIPPI AND TRACKING NORTHEAST ALONG THE INTERSTATE 20
CORRIDOR. IF THIS SOLUTION DOES IN FACT VERIFY...WE WILL BE
LOOKING AT INCREASED SHEAR PROFILES...AND WITH THE VERY UNSTABLE
AIRMASS AND JET STRUCTURE IN PLACE...SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT WILL
MOST CERTAINLY BE IN THE CARDS OUT AHEAD OF THE SQUALL LINE.
CURRENT THINKING IS THAT SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT WILL BE THE MOST
FAVORABLE ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF A LINE FROM DEMOPOLIS...TO
CALERA...TO ANNISTON LINE. OF COURSE...THIS WILL ALL DEPEND ON THE
MESOSCALE...WHICH WILL HAVE TO BE CLOSELY WATCHED THROUGH THE DAY
TODAY AND ESPECIALLY THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

THE SQUALL LINE...WHICH IS ANTICIPATED TO BECOME MORE NORTH TO
SOUTH ORIENTED THROUGH THE DAY IS EXPECTED TO BE NEAR THE
INTERSTATE 65 CORRIDOR IN THE 21-23Z TIME FRAME. OF COURSE...THIS
TIMING COULD CHANGE BASED ON IF A STRONG COLD POOL DEVELOPS AND
PUSHES THE SQUALL LINE FARTHER EAST AT A FASTER CLIP. DAMAGING
STRAIGHT-LINE WINDS AND ISOLATED TORNADOES ASSOCIATED WITH ANY
QLCS MESOVORTEX THAT DEVELOPS CAN BE EXPECTED ALONG THE SQUALL
LINE AS IT RACES EASTWARD. THE NEXT THREAT WILL BE HEAVY
RAINFALL...WITH PW'S EXPECTED TO RISE NEAR RECORD LEVELS FOR THIS
TIME OF THE YEAR. LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL CERTAINLY BE A
POSSIBILITY...WITH QPF'S RANGING FROM 1.5 TO 2.5 INCHES AREA WIDE
THROUGH THE EVENT.

AS THE FRONT FINALLY CLEARS THE AREA BEHIND THE ACTUAL SQUALL LINE
AND PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH BY MIDNIGHT TONIGHT...DRIER AND COOLER
AIR WILL FILTER INTO THE SOUTHEAST. THE NEXT SYSTEM IS NOT
EXPECTED TO IMPACT THE AREA UNTIL SUNDAY AFTERNOON WITH A POSSIBLE
GULF LOW PASSING OFF TO OUR SOUTH. WE'LL GET TO THAT SYSTEM ONCE
WE GET PAST THE CURRENT SYSTEM ON OUR DOORSTEP.
