AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
447 PM CST THU FEB 21 2013

.SHORT TERM [TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON]...A CLOSED LOW OVER
THE PLAINS HEADS NORTHEAST AGAINST THE WEST SIDE OF AN UPPER RIDGE
CURRENTLY JUST EAST OF THE MISS RIVER. THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW
WITH THIS SYSTEM MOVES NORTHEAST FROM OVER THE MISS DELTA REGION.
THIS WILL PUSH A  FRONT CURRENTLY OVER THE EASTERN CENTRAL/SOUTHERN
PLAINS TOWARDS THE FA...WHERE IT ENDS UP ROUGHLY ALONG I65 BY FRIDAY
12Z. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE MOVES THROUGH THE BASE OF AN UPPER TROUGH
THAT HAS SET UP OVER THE  ROCKIES...BRINGING AN INCREASE IN THE RAIN
CHANCES FOR FRIDAY. ENOUGH INSTABILITY IS PRESENT ABOVE THE STALLED
BOUNDARY FOR THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPMENT NORTH OF THE FRONT.

FOR THE FORECAST...SPC HAS A SLIGHT RISK OUTLINED FOR SOUTHERN MISS
AND LA. WITH ADDED MID/UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE
SYSTEM AS IT PASSES NORTHWEST OF THE FA...A FEW TSRA COULD GET
ROWDY...WITH DAMAGING WINDS THE PRIMARY THREAT. AS THE FRONT LAYS UP
ALONG I65 LATER TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY...ANY SEVERE STORMS WILL BE
GOVERNED BY THE AMOUNT OF HEATING SOUTH OF THE SURFACE BOUNDARY. WE
STAY RAINY...THE CHANCE OF ANY STORM BECOMING STRONG TO SEVERE WILL
BE LIMITED. WITH COVERAGE OF SHRA/TSRA EXPECTED TO BE
WIDESPREAD...AND THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERAL CELLS TRAINING OVER SOME
AREAS...A FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS ISSUED FOR THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE
FA IN AL/FL...SOUTH OF THE AREA AFFECTED IN PREVIOUS WEEKS BY
FLOODING IN PREVIOUS SYSTEMS THIS YEAR...SO FAR. FEEL ATTM THAT MISS
AND CENTRAL AL WILL BE UNDER A WEAKER INFLOW OVER THE BOUNDARY OVER
THE FA...SO AM EXPECTING MORE RAIN THAN TSRA OVER THESE AREAS. /16

[FRIDAY EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT]...STALL COLD FRONT WILL BE
VERY NEAR I-65 FRIDAY EVENING...AND WILL MOVE VERY SLOWLY TOWARD THE
SOUTHEAST AT AROUND 5 MPH...FINALLY CLEARING THE DESTIN AREA BY LATE
SATURDAY AFTERNOON. ONGOING WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
FRIDAY NIGHT WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT SOUTHEAST ON SATURDAY WITH THE
FRONT. THE MAIN IMPACT WILL BE VERY HEAVY RAIN WITH AN ADDITIONAL
1.5 TO 2 INCHES LIKELY ALONG AND TO THE SOUTHEAST OF I-65. LIGHTER
AMOUNTS OF 0.5 TO 1.25 INCHES ARE EXPECTED NORTHWEST OF I-65. A FEW
LIGHT LINGERING SHOWERS SOUTHEAST OF I-65 EARLY SATURDAY EVENING
WILL END BY MIDNIGHT. STAY TUNED TO FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS AND
INFORMATION AS THEY BECOME AVAILABLE.

LOW TEMPERATURES FRIDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM 47 TO 56 DEGREES
NORTHWEST OF I-65...AND 57 TO 63 DEGREES SOUTHEAST OF I-65. HIGH
TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY WILL BE IN THE UPPER 60S. LOWS SATURDAY
NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM 38 TO 43 DEGREES INLAND AREAS...WITH MID TO
UPPER 40S ALONG THE COAST. /22

&&

.LONG TERM [SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY]...THE DRY AIRMASS WILL PERSIST
INTO SUNDAY MORNING...FOLLOWED BY INCREASING MOISTURE AS THE FRONT
OVER THE GULF RETURNS NORTHWARD AS A WARM FRONT. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP SUNDAY NIGHT ACROSS THE CENTRAL GULF
COAST AS THE FRONT MOVES NORTHWARD. MORE HEAVY RAIN IS POSSIBLE
SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY AS YET ANOTHER COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE
AREA. THE FRONT WILL MOVE EAST OF THE AREA MONDAY AFTERNOON WITH A
DRIER AIRMASS MOVING INTO AREA THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.
TEMPERATURES WILL START THE PERIOD NEAR NORMAL BEFORE WARMING TO
ABOVE NORMAL LEVELS THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. TEMPERATURES RETURN TO
NEAR NORMAL DURING THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK AS COOL HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS ACROSS THE AREA. /13

&&

.AVIATION [21.18Z AND 22.00Z KMOB/KBFM AND KPNS TAF ISSUANCE]...
AHEAD OF A FRONT MOVING OVER THE LOWER MISS RIVER VALLEY THIS
AFTERNOON...INCREASING STRONG SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS WILL DROPS CIGS TO
NEAR THE VFR LOWER BOUNDARY...ESPECIALLY OVER THE WESTERN THIRD OF
THE FA. AS THE FRONT MOVES OVER THE AREA BEGINNING THIS
EVENING...WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO DECREASE IN STRENGTH
AS THE SYSTEM AND ITS ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW MOVE OFF TO THE
NORTHEAST. CIG/VSBY DROPS TO IFR OR LOWER LEVEL EXPECTED OVERNIGHT
INTO FRIDAY MORNING. /16

&&

.MARINE...AS AN UPPER SYSTEM OVER THE PLAINS MOVES OFF...STRONG
INFLOW OVER THE NORTHERN GULF COAST IS EXPECTED TO SETTLE. A WEAK
SHORTWAVE PASSING NE OF THE FA FRIDAY NIGHT IS EXPECTED TO PUSH A
STALLED BOUNDARY OVER THE FA SOUTH TO OVER THE SOUTHERN BORDER OVER
THE MARINE FA...THEN A SECOND...STRONGER SHORTWAVE WILL PUSH IT WELL
SOUTH OF THE FA. THIS WILL BRING A LIGHT TO MODERATE OFFSHORE FLOW
TO AREA COASTAL WATERS FOR SATURDAY NIGHT...BUT AS YET MORE UPPER
ENERGY DIVES SOUTHEAST OVER THE WESTERN CONUS...SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE GETS PUSHED QUICKLY EAST FROM OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND
ONSHORE FLOW RETURNS LATE SUNDAY INTO SUDNAY NIGHT. AS THE UPPER
SYSTEM MOVES EAST OVER THE PLAINS...IT DRAWS THE BOUNDARY OVER THE
GULF OF MEX BACK NORTH...WHICH BECOMES THE FOCUS FOR A SURFACE LOW
DEVELOPING...THEN MOVING OVER THE FA SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY.

FOR THE FORECAST...STRONG FLOW WILL BECOME VARIABLE LIGHT TO
MODERATE...MAKING FOR A DIRECTION FORECAST A PAIN...BUT HELP TO
LIMIT WAVE DEVELOPMENT AFFECTING THE FA. /16

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...MOISTURE LEVELS WILL RAPIDLY INCREASE TONIGHT IN
ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT. THE FRONT WILL STALL MOMENTARILY ACROSS THE
AREA ON FRIDAY...BEFORE MOVING EAST OF THE AREA BY NOON ON SATURDAY.
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TONIGHT AND FRIDAY.

FOG POTENTIAL AND OTHER REMARKS...AREAS OF FOG LIKELY TONIGHT
WITH VISIBILITIES REDUCED TO BETWEEN ONE AND THREE MILES. /22
