AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR THE FLORIDA KEYS
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KEY WEST FL
345 PM EST SAT JAN 26 2013

.DISCUSSION...LATEST AVAILABLE SATELLITE IMAGERY OVERLAID WITH MODEL
STREAMLINE LINE ANALYSIS AS OF 300 PM CONTINUED TO DEPICT A
ZONAL/WEAKLY CYCLONIC MID AND UPPER FLOW PATTERN CONTINUING ACROSS
MUCH OF THE CONUS...WITH THE HIGHEST MAGNITUDE VELOCITY JETSTREAM
WINDS AVERAGING 50 TO 100 KNOTS ACROSS THE NORTHERN CONUS. AT THE
SURFACE...A 1031 MB ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM IS CENTERED OVER
SOUTHERN ILLINOIS. SOUTHEAST OF THAT...A WEAK COLD FRONT/STATIONARY
FRONT WAS POSITIONED FROM THE OKEFENOKEE SWAMP TO EAST TEXAS. A
WEAKER...NEAR 1025 MB RIDGE AXIS IS ORIENTED FROM THE EAST CENTRAL
GULF OF MEXICO EASTWARD ACROSS CENTRAL FLORIDA.

.CURRENTLY...AS OF 300 PM...SKIES ARE PARTLY CLOUDY WITH
STRATOCUMULUS AND SOME CUMULUS CLOUDS ACROSS THE ISLANDS AND
ADJOINING WATERS. C-MAN STATIONS ALONG THE FLORIDA REEF ARE
RECORDING NORTHEAST WINDS AROUND 15 KNOTS WITH GUSTS OVER 20
KNOTS...WITH SHIP REPORTS PRESENTLY INDICATING 15 TO 20 KNOTS
SUSTAINED ACROSS THE FLORIDA STRAITS. A DATA VOID EXISTED ON THE
LAST ASCAT PASS OVER THE BALANCE OF THE FLORIDA STRAITS.
TEMPERATURES HAVE REACHED THE MIDDLE 70S ACROSS THE ISLANDS WITH
DEWPOINTS AROUND 60 DEGREES.

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...A NEAR 590 DM RIDGE AT
500 MB MIDDLE LEVEL RIDGE WILL REMAIN IN PLACE ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA
AND THE FLORIDA KEYS THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. THE CENTER OF THE
AFOREMENTIONED 1030 MB COLD ANTICYCLONE NOW LOCATED NEAR THE OHIO
VALLEY IS MIGRATING SOUTHEASTWARD...AND WILL BECOME REORIENTED OVER
EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA TONIGHT AS IT INTENSIFIES TO 1035 MB. THIS
WILL BEGIN TO PUSH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY NOW IN NORTH FLORIDA
SOUTHWARD TOWARDS SOUTH FLORIDA OVERNIGHT. THE RESULT OF THIS WILL
BE BREEZY CONDITIONS RETURNING ACROSS THE KEYS WITH BREEZY TO WINDY
CONDITIONS ON ALL SURROUNDING WATERS BEGINNING TONIGHT AND
CONTINUING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...AND CONTINUING ON TUESDAY AND
TUESDAY NIGHT ACROSS THE ATLANTIC WATERS.

THE LATEST WRF RUN COMBINED WITH A WETTER ECMWF INDICATE THAT THE
REMNANTS OF THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHOULD MOVE SOUTHWARD AND BE
ACCOMPANIED AMPLE LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE AND HIGHER
MOISTURE...LEADING TO A BETTER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS SUNDAY THROUGH
MONDAY NIGHT. THE CENTER OF THE STRONGER RIDGING NEAR NORTH CAROLINA
WILL REMAIN ANCHORED IN PLACE THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...BEFORE SLIDING
INTO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC NEAR 65 WEST 30 NORTH TUESDAY
AFTERNOON...AND FARTHER EAST TUESDAY NIGHT. AS A RESULT...EXPECT A
DEEPENING EASTERLY FLOW FROM THE SURFACE TO 700 MB COMBINED WITH
AMPLE BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE AVAILABLE UPSTREAM...SO HAVE INSERTED
LOW CHANCE POPS THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. THIS IDEA IS CONFIRMED BY BOTH
12Z GFS AND NAM MODEL FORECAST SOUNDINGS WHICH ILLUSTRATE PWAT
(PRECIPITABLE WATER) RISING FROM BETWEEN 1.00 AND 1.5 INCHES
OVERNIGHT TO BETWEEN 1.50 AND 1.75 INCHES SUNDAY AFTERNOON TO MONDAY
NIGHT. SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR MOVES IN ACROSS THE KEYS IN THE MID LEVELS
TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...BUT A SUBSTANTIAL GRADIENT WILL KEEP
NEAR BREEZY/BREEZY CONDITIONS IN PLACE ACROSS THE KEYS AND
SURROUNDING WATERS.

.WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...ANOTHER BURGEONING POLAR TROUGH
DEVELOPING OVER THE PLAINS ON WEDNESDAY WILL CONTINUE TO MIGRATE
EASTWARD...AND ALL AVAILABLE MODELS CONTINUE TO BRING A STRONG COLD
FRONT SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS FLORIDA DURING THURSDAY...MOVING ACROSS
THE KEYS THURSDAY NIGHT. THOUGH THIS IS STILL 5 DAYS OUT...BUT ECMWF
AND GFS MODELS ARE INDICATING RESPECTABLE 1000-850 MB COLD THICKNESS
ADVECTION. NEVERTHELESS...TEMPERATURES WERE ONLY LOWERED BACK TO
HIGHS JUST ABOVE 70 WITH LOWS BETWEEN 60 AND 65.

&&

.MARINE...SMALL CRAFT WILL NEED TO EXERCISE CAUTION TONIGHT ACROSS
THE FLORIDA STRAITS OUT 60 NM OFFSHORE OF THE UPPER KEYS TO 20 NM
WEST OF THE DRY TORTUGAS. DURING SUNDAY MORNING...SMALL CRAFT WILL
LIKELY NEED TO EXERCISE CAUTION ACROSS ALL OF THE MARINE DISTRICT
WITH THE EXCEPTION BEING FLORIDA BAY. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL
LIKELY BE IN PLACE ACROSS HAWK CHANNEL AND THE FLORIDA STRAITS
DURING SUNDAY AFTERNOON...BUT SMALL CRAFT WILL STILL NEED TO
EXERCISE CAUTION ACROSS THE FLORIDA BAY...NEARSHORE AND OFFSHORE
GULF WATERS...AND THE WATERS IN THE SOUTHEASTERN GULF OF MEXICO. A
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL LIKELY BE IN PLACE ACROSS ALL WATERS
SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY WITH THE EXCEPTION OF FLORIDA BAY...WHERE A
CAUTION HEADLINE WILL REMAIN. SMALL CRAFT WILL STILL NEED TO
EXERCISE CAUTION ACROSS MOST OF THE WATERS TUESDAY AND TUESDAY
NIGHT...BUT A POSSIBILITY THAT A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL STILL
REMAIN IN PLACE ACROSS THE ATLANTIC WATERS DUE TO ELEVATED SEAS.
ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL ARRIVE THURSDAY NIGHT...WHEN SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CONDITIONS SEEM TO BE A GOOD POSSIBILITY ACROSS ALL WATERS.

&&

.AVIATION...THROUGH 27/18Z...PREVAILING VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
AT EYW AND MTH. A DEVELOPING WEAK WARM ADVECTION PATTERN ALOFT WILL
RESULT IN FORMATION OF SCATTERED-BROKEN STRATOCUMULUS AND
ALTOCUMULUS DECKS BY ABOUT 27/02Z. HOWEVER...PRECIPITATION CHANCES
AT EYW AND MTH SHOULD REMAIN NIL THROUGH 27/12Z. PRECIPITATION
CHANCES SHOULD INCREASE SLIGHTLY SUNDAY MORNING. FORECAST CONFIDENCE
IS HIGH THROUGH 27/12Z...AND MEDIUM TO HIGH FROM 27/12Z-27/18Z FOR
