AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
328 AM EST SAT FEB 16 2013

...MUCH COLDER TEMPERATURES HEADED FOR SOUTH FLORIDA TONIGHT
THROUGH MONDAY MORNING...

.DISCUSSION...
LARGE AMPLIFIED MID LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE DEVELOPING ACROSS
EASTERN NORTH AMERICA TODAY THROUGH EARLY MONDAY AND THIS WILL SET
THE STAGE FOR A STRONG COLD FRONT TO MOVE ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA
THIS AFTERNOON. A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONT THAT HAD BEEN IN THE
FLORIDA STRAITS SINCE LATE THURSDAY IS FINALLY BEGINNING TO MOVE
TO THE SOUTHEAST IN RESPONSE TO THE DEVELOPING TROUGH. THIS HAS
MOSTLY ENDED THE MUCH NEEDED RAIN ACROSS THE REGION WITH JUST A
FEW SHOWERS LEFT ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE AREA. AS THE
TROUGH CONTINUES TO DEEPEN, ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT CURRENTLY
LOCATED FROM THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE TO THE EASTERN MID ATLANTIC
STATES WILL MOVE DOWN THE PENINSULA TO NEAR LAKE OKEECHOBEE BY MID
AFTERNOON AND OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST EARLY THIS EVENING. STRONG
COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL THEN BEGIN IN EARNEST AND CONTINUE THROUGH
THE DAY ON SUNDAY AS A STRONG SURFACE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DEVELOPS
ALONG THE FRONT OFF THE CAROLINA COAST TONIGHT AND STRONG HIGH
PRESSURE MOVES INTO THE SOUTH CENTRAL GULF COAST. THESE TWO
PRESSURE SYSTEMS WILL COMBINE TO TIGHTEN THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA TONIGHT AND SUNDAY WITH A NORTH WIND OF 10 TO
15 MPH. THIS ALONG WITH TEMPERATURES FALLING INTO THE 30S OVER THE
INTERIOR AND 40S ALONG THE ATLANTIC COAST WILL CREATE WIND CHILL
READINGS IN THE MID 20S TO MID 30S OVER A LARGE PORTION OF THE
REGION LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. THEREFORE, A WIND
CHILL ADVISORY WILL BE ISSUED FOR ALL OF SOUTH FLORIDA EXCEPT FOR
THE IMMEDIATE SOUTHEAST COAST. IN ADDITION, MODEL CONSENSUS IS FOR
TEMPERATURES TO FALL NEAR FREEZING ACROSS THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF
GLADES AND HENDRY COUNTIES FOR TWO TO THREE HOURS AND THE FREEZE
WATCH WILL BE UPGRADED TO A FREEZE WARNING FOR THOSE LOCATIONS.
EVEN WITH TEMPERATURES FALLING INTO THE 30S OVER A LARGE PORTION
OF THE INTERIOR, FROST IS NOT ANTICIPATED DUE TO THE MODERATE
NORTH WIND EXPECTED.

ON SUNDAY, THE CAA WILL CONTINUE AND TEMPERATURES WILL STRUGGLE TO
REACH THE LOWER 60S. THE LOW PRESSURE IN THE ATLANTIC WILL LIFT TO
THE NORTHEAST DURING THE DAY ON SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT WITH THE
HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTING EAST TO THE SOUTHERN GEORGIA/NORTHERN
FLORIDA. THIS WILL RELAX THE GRADIENT AND THE WIND WILL BECOME
LESS THAN 5 MPH TO NEAR CALM. THIS ALONG WITH THE COOL AFTERNOON
TEMPERATURES, A DRY AIRMASS AND A CLEAR SKY WILL BE IDEAL FOR
RADIATIONAL COOLING FOR SUNDAY NIGHT. THUS, TEMPERATURES WILL FALL
TO AS LOW AS TONIGHT OVER MOST OF SOUTH FLORIDA AND A FREEZE WATCH
HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR GLADES AND HENDRY COUNTIES. THERE COULD ALSO
BE AREAS TO WIDESPREAD FROST OVER THE INTERIOR WHERE THE
TEMPERATURES REACH THE MID 30S TO NEAR FREEZING.

ZONAL FLOW WILL RETURN TO SOUTH FLORIDA ON MONDAY AND CONTINUE
THROUGH THE WEEK AS SEVERAL MID LEVEL TROUGHS MOVE THROUGH THE MID
LATITUDES AND ACROSS THE NORTHERN STATES. THE SURFACE RIDGE WILL
SHIFT EAST INTO THE ATLANTIC WITH AN ONSHORE LOW LEVEL FLOW
DEVELOPING WITH MODERATING TEMPERATURES. IN FACT, BY THE END OF
THE WEEK TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN TO WELL ABOVE THE NORMAL FOR
LATE FEBRUARY ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT ALONG THE EAST COAST.

&&

.MARINE...
RAPIDLY DETERIORATING MARINE CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR THIS AFTERNOON
AS A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE SOUTH FLORIDA WATERS AND
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE SOUTHEAST STATES. BEHIND THE FRONT,
THE WIND WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST AND NORTH INCREASING TO A
RANGE OF 25-30 KNOTS WITH GUSTS TO NEAR GALE FORCE OVER THE GULF
AND ATLANTIC WATERS. A SCA WILL GO IN EFFECT FOR ALL WATERS
INCLUDING LAKE OKEECHOBEE AND BISCAYNE BAY FOR THIS AFTERNOON
THROUGH EARLY SUNDAY. SEAS WILL ALSO BUILD TO OVER 10 FEET TONIGHT
AND SUNDAY IN THE OFFSHORE GULF WATERS AND THE ATLANTIC. WIND AND
SEAS WILL GRADUALLY SUBSIDE SUNDAY NIGHT INTO NEXT WEEK.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
A MUCH COLDER AND DRY AIRMASS WILL FILTER DOWN THE PENINSULA THIS
AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY. THE RELATIVE HUMIDITIES ARE EXPECTED TO
FALL BELOW 35 PERCENT FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS THIS AFTERNOON OVER
THE EASTERN HALF OF THE REGION ALONG WITH A WEST TO NORTHWEST WIND
OF GREATER THAN 15 MPH. HOWEVER, THE ERC IS FORECAST TO REMAIN
BELOW 20 DUE TO THE RECENT RAINS AND CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN BELOW
RED FLAG CRITERIA AND A FIRE DANGER STATEMENT WILL BE ISSUED. THE
RELATIVE HUMIDITY IS FORECAST TO FALL INTO THE 20S SUNDAY AFTERNOON
BUT THE WIND WILL BE MUCH WEAKER AND WITH THE ERC REMAINING BELOW
35, A FIRE DANGER STATEMENT WILL AGAIN LIKELY BE NEEDED.
