AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
539 PM CST MON NOV 25 2013

.AVIATION [26.00Z TAF ISSUANCE]...A WET PATTERN TO ADVANCE IN FROM
THE WEST AS A WAVE OF FRONTAL LOW PRESSURE...DEVELOPING ABOUT 200
MILES SOUTH OF LAKE CHARLES LA...LIFTS NORTHEAST TOWARD THE
MISSISSIPPI SOUND BY DAYBREAK TUESDAY. MVFR/IFR CIGS AND VSBY REDUCED
TO IFR CATEGORIES AT TIMES IN MODERATE TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS. A
GENERAL EASTERLY FLOW FORECAST TONIGHT 10 TO 15 KNOTS. WIND SHIFT
FORECAST TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND WILL PICK UP IN STRENGTH WITH GUSTS
BETWEEN 20 AND 25 KNOTS AS THE LOW PASSES OFF TO THE EAST. /10

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 335 PM CST MON NOV 25 2013/

SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)...A DEEP UPPER LOW
ADVANCES ACROSS TEXAS AND INTO LOUISIANA THROUGH TUESDAY AND BEGINS
TO PHASE WITH AN EQUALLY VIGOROUS NORTHERN STREAM SYSTEM ADVANCING
ACROSS THE PLAINS. A SURFACE LOW OVER THE NORTHWESTERN GULF MOVES TO
NEAR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN ALABAMA TUESDAY MORNING AND CONTINUES EAST-
NORTHEAST TO SOUTHWESTERN GEORGIA LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES INCREASE TO 1.5-2 INCHES TONIGHT...WITH THE
HIGHEST VALUES NEAR THE COAST AND AROUND 225 PERCENT OF NORMAL...THEN
THE BEST DEEP LAYER MOISTURE SHIFTS EASTWARD ON TUESDAY WITH THE
MOVEMENT OF THE DEEP SYSTEM. ISENTROPIC LIFT SEEN IN 295-300K LAYER
BECOMES STRONG THROUGH THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...AND WITH A WARM
FRONT EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE COASTAL PORTION OF THE AREA ENHANCING
LOW LEVEL LIFT....EXPECT THE HIGHEST QPF VALUES OVER THE SOUTHERN
PORTION OF THE AREA TONIGHT. THE BEST LIFT SHIFTS EASTWARD TUESDAY
MORNING WITH THE WARM FRONT PUSHING FURTHER NORTH WHILE A COLD FRONT
ADVANCES ACROSS THE MID SECTION OF THE FORECAST AREA. THE COLD FRONT
MOVES QUICKLY OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST AREA EARLY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON WITH FAIRLY STRONG LAYER LIFTING SEEN IN 295-300K LAYER IN
THE WAKE OF THE FRONT. THE HIGHEST QPF AMOUNTS WILL BE OVER THE
EASTERN PORTION OF THE AREA WHERE BOTH THE HIGHEST DEEP LAYER
MOISTURE AND BEST DEEP LAYER LIFT WILL BE PRESENT...WITH QPF AMOUNTS
TAPERING OFF TUESDAY AFTERNOON. LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS WILL BE
POSSIBLE THROUGH TUESDAY.

THE BULK OF THE FORECAST AREA REMAINS SUFFICIENTLY STABLE TO SUPPORT
JUST RAIN THROUGH TUESDAY...BUT SURFACE BASED CAPES INCREASE
MODESTLY LATE TONIGHT AS THE WARM FRONT ADVANCES INTO THE COASTAL
PORTION.  SURFACE BASED CAPES INCREASE FURTHER TO AROUND 500 J/KG
TUESDAY MORNING INTO EARLY TUESDAY AFTERNOON MAINLY OVER THE
NORTHWEST FLORIDA PANHANDLE BEFORE VERY STABLE AIR FOLLOWS WITH THE
COLD FRONT.  THE BEST SHEAR FOLLOWS THE WARM FRONT WITH 0-1 KM
HELICITIES OF 200-350 M2/S2...BUT THIS REMAINS OUT OF PHASE WITH THE
BEST INSTABILITY.  AS A RESULT...WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION IN THE
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME STRONG TO POSSIBLY
SEVERE STORMS MAINLY OVER THE NORTHWEST FLORIDA PANHANDLE ON
TUESDAY.  TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR TEN DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL TONIGHT
FOR MUCH OF THE AREA THEN SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL ON TUESDAY.
/29

THE SURFACE LOW WILL QUICKLY MOVE WELL EAST OF THE AREA TUESDAY
NIGHT...POSITIONED ACROSS THE CAROLINAS BY MIDNIGHT. MEANWHILE...THE
UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE OVER LOUISIANA IS FORECAST TO OPEN UP AS IT
MOVES ACROSS OUR AREA...WITH THE SHORTWAVE PHASING WITH A NORTHERN
STREAM SYSTEM OVER GEORGIA BY 12Z WEDNESDAY. A DRY SLOT IS LIKELY TO
PUNCH INTO THE AREA DURING PART OF THE EVENING HOURS...WHICH WILL
RESULT IN A BREAK IN THE PRECIPITATION. HOWEVER...SIGNIFICANT WRAP
AROUND MOISTURE AND LIFT ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE TROUGH WILL MOVE
ACROSS SE MS DURING THE EVENING AND ACROSS THE AL/FL ZONES OVERNIGHT.
THEREFORE...WRAP AROUND LIGHT RAIN IS EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE
REGION...WITH ALL PRECIP ENDING BY SUNRISE WEDNESDAY. COLD AIR
ADVECTION WILL RESULT IN LOW LEVEL THICKNESSES QUICKLY DROPPING
THROUGH THE NIGHT AND THERE REMAINS A SMALL POTENTIAL FOR SOME
SLEET/SNOW TO MIX IN WITH THE RAIN ACROSS THE FAR INLAND ZONES JUST
BEFORE THE PRECIP COMES TO AN END. THE GFS IS THE MOST AGGRESSIVE
WITH CROSS SECTIONS SHOWING SIGNIFICANT OMEGA AND DEEP LAYER MOISTURE
IN THE DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE FOR A SHORT TIME AROUND MIDNIGHT OVER THE
NW CWA. THE ECMWF AND NAM ARE MUCH QUICKER IN BRINGING DRIER AIR
INTO THE AREA...WHICH WOULD GREATLY LIMIT ANY CHANCE FOR A WINTRY
MIX. THEREFORE...WILL KEEP ALL PRECIP AS RAIN FOR THE TIME BEING.
EVEN IF A WINTRY MIX WERE TO OCCUR...IT WOULD BE BRIEF IN NATURE WITH
NO ACCUMULATIONS. LOWS WILL DROP INTO THE LOW 30S INLAND WITH UPPER
30S TO AROUND 40 EXPECTED CLOSE TO THE COAST. BREEZY CONDITIONS
THROUGH THE NIGHT WILL RESULT IN WIND CHILLS IN THE 20S ALONG AND
WEST OF I-65 WITH LOWER 30S FURTHER EAST. 34/JFB

LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY)...STRONG LOW LEVEL COLD AIR
ADVECTION WILL CONTINUE ON WEDNESDAY AS THE AXIS OF THE LONGWAVE
TROUGH MOVES TO THE EASTERN SEABOARD. 1000-850 MB THICKNESSES ARE
FORECAST TO REMAIN IN THE 1290-1300 METER RANGE THROUGH THE DAY WITH
NO INCREASE DURING THE DAY. THEREFORE...IT WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT FOR
TEMPS TO CLIMB AND HIGHS ARE ONLY FORECAST TO REACH THE LOW 40S WELL
INLAND AND LOW 50S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST. IT WILL ALSO BE A
BLUSTERY DAY WITH FREQUENT WIND GUSTS OF 20 TO 25 MPH KEEPING WIND
CHILLS IN THE 30S OVER A LARGE PORTION OF THE AREA. A 1032 MB HIGH
SETTLES ACROSS THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT...ALLOWING WINDS TO
DECREASE. WITH CLEAR SKIES AND A VERY DRY AIRMASS...TEMPS ARE
EXPECTED TO QUICKLY FALL THROUGH THE NIGHT WITH WIDESPREAD 20S
EXPECTED BY THANKSGIVING MORNING. EVEN COASTAL AREAS ARE EXPECTED TO
DROP BELOW FREEZING. A HARD FREEZE (LOWS OF 20 DEGREES) IS
POSSIBLE NORTH OF THE HIGHWAY 84 CORRIDOR. THANKSGIVING DAY WILL BE
DRY AND COLD WITH HIGHS ONLY REACHING THE UPPER 40S TO LOWER 50S.
HOWEVER...WINDS WILL BE LIGHTER WHICH WILL KEEP WIND CHILLS CLOSE TO
THE ACTUAL TEMPERATURE. ANOTHER FREEZE IS EXPECTED FRIDAY MORNING
WITH LOWS IN THE MID 20S WELL INLAND TO LOWER 30S ALONG THE COAST.

TEMPS WILL GRADUALLY MODERATE FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS THE SFC
HIGH SHIFTS EAST AND SEMI ZONAL UPPER FLOW DEVELOPS. TEMPS WILL
REMAIN BELOW SEASONAL LEVELS FRIDAY...BUT WARM BACK TO NORMAL LEVELS
BY SUNDAY. A CHANCE OF RAIN RETURNS TO THE FORECAST FOR NEXT MONDAY
AS BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS SHOW ANOTHER SHORTWAVE AFFECTING THE
REGION. 34/JFB

MARINE...A SURFACE LOW OVER THE NORTHWESTERN GULF
MOVES TO NEAR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN ALABAMA TUESDAY MORNING THEN
CONTINUES EAST-NORTHEAST AWAY FROM THE AREA THROUGH TUESDAY
AFTERNOON. EASTERLY WINDS AROUND 25 KNOTS FOR MUCH OF THE MARINE AREA
BECOME SOUTHERLY 20-25 KNOTS TONIGHT THEN SWITCH TO THE NORTHWEST ON
TUESDAY AS THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM BRINGS A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE
AREA. OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO GALE FORCE WILL BE POSSIBLE TONIGHT. A
STRONGER PUSH OCCURS TUESDAY NIGHT WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE DEEP UPPER
LOW WITH THE NORTHWEST FLOW INCREASING TO 27-32 KNOTS... STRONGEST
OVER THE GULF WATERS. WITH THE STRONGER SUSTAINED WINDS...THE
LIKELIHOOD FOR GUSTS TO GALE FORCE IS INCREASED AND HAVE ISSUED A
GALE WARNING FOR TUESDAY EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING. A SMALL
CRAFT OTHERWISE IS IN PLACE THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...EXCEPT ENDING
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON OVER THE BAYS AS THE OFFSHORE FLOW GRADUALLY
SUBSIDES AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION. A MODERATE TO
STRONG NORTHEAST FLOW FOLLOWS FOR FRIDAY THEN BECOMES LIGHT TO
MODERATE ON SATURDAY AS A STRONG SURFACE RIDGE IS ESTABLISHED OVER
THE SOUTHEAST STATES. /29

CLIMATE...THE FORECAST LOW OF 25 IN MOBILE FOR THANKSGIVING MORNING
WOULD TIE THE RECORD LOW FOR THE DAY (RECORD LAST SET IN 1938). THE
RECORD LOW FOR PENSACOLA ON THE 28TH IS 26 DEGREES...ALSO SET IN
1938.

AN INTERESTING NOTE...THE COLDEST LOW RECORDED ALL OF LAST WINTER IN
MOBILE WAS 27 DEGREES AND 31 DEGREES IN PENSACOLA. 34/JFB
