AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE TO AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
1130 AM CST FRI FEB 22 2013

.AVIATION...(18Z ISSUANCE)...WITH A FRONT CURRENT RUNNING FROM SOUTH
OF DAUPHIN ISLAND TO OVER THE KPNS AREA TO BETWEEN KDTS AND
KCEW...THE FORECAST IS PROVING TO BE A BEAR. CLOSE TO THE
FRONT...IFR OR LOWER CIGS/VSBYS...RISING TO MVFR AND VFR LEVEL CIGS
NORTHWEST OF THE FRONT. THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO WAFFLE NORTH AND
SOUTH A BIT THROUGH THE FORECAST...BEFORE GETTING A SOUTHWARD SHOVE
FRIDAY AFTERNOON INTO FRIDAY NIGHT.

/16

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY AND TONIGHT)...THE SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT FROM THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS BEEN
LOWERED WITH STILL THE THREAT FOR HEAVY RAIN WITH POSSIBLE FLOODING
IN SOME AREAS FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS. LATEST RADAR ESTIMATES ARE
SHOWING 1 TO 2 INCHES PER HOUR WITH THE HEAVIER CELLS MOVING IN TO
MOBILE CO THIS MORNING WHICH WILL LIKELY CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE DAY
AND EARLY TONIGHT GENERALLY ALONG A STALLING FRONT  LATEST MODEL
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SHOW THE WEAK SFC FRONT STALLING BETWEEN MOB
AND PNS LATE THIS MORNING THEN SHIFTING BACK TO THE NORTH AND WEST
SLIGHTLY THROUGH MIDNIGHT TONIGHT THEN RETREATING BACK TO THE SOUTH
AND EAST EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. WITH THIS PATTERN EXPECT TRAINING
CELLS TO OCCUR NEAR AND ALONG THE QUASI STATIONARY FRONT GENERALLY
FROM MOBILE CO AL STRETCHING NORTHEAST TOWARDS COVINGTON CO IN AL
AND SOUTHWARD TO THE AL AND NWFL COAST...CONTINUING THROUGH MIDNIGHT
TONIGHT...FOLLOWED BY A GRADUAL SHIFT TO THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST
THROUGH 12Z SAT MORNING. LATEST MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW A RATHER
MOIST COLUMN SETTING UP WHERE THE BETTER RAIN IS EXPECTED WITH PWATS
INCREASING TO AROUND 1.7 INCHES LATER TODAY AND EARLY TONIGHT THEN
DRYING OUT FROM WEST TO EAST AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. CURRENT LAPS
DATA SHOWS GOOD VERTICAL SHEAR EAST OF THE FRONT WITH VERY LIMITED
INSTABILITY OR CAPE. ALOFT 45 KNOT 850 JET MOVES EAST OF THE CWFA
THIS MORNING WITH RIGHT REAR QUAD OF A 145 KNOTS UPPER JET MERGING
WITH THE SURFACE FRONT LATE THIS MORNING CONTINUING EARLY THROUGH
TONIGHT. THIS PATTERN WILL HELP ENHANCE THIS AFTERNOONS AND THIS
EVENINGS RAINFALL LEADING TO THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH OVER SOME PARTS OF
THE CWFA. CURRENTLY THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES THROUGH 12Z SAT.
AS FOR TEMPS WILL LEAN TOWARDS THE WARMER MAV GUIDANCE UNDERCUTTING
THESE VALUES A DEGREE OR TWO FOR MOST ARRAS DUE TO RAIN AND CLOUDS.
32/EE

FOR SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...A STRONG SHORTWAVE TROF ADVANCES
QUICKLY EASTWARD AND ACROSS THE LOWER/MID MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY
BY LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON THEN CONTINUES NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE
EASTERN STATES SATURDAY NIGHT.  THE SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL BE
LOCATED JUST EAST OF THE I-65 CORRIDOR EARLY SATURDAY MORNING AND
CONTINUES MOVING SLOWLY EASTWARD DURING THE DAY...EXITING EAST OF
DESTIN EARLY SATURDAY EVENING.  WILL HAVE CATEGORICAL POPS OVER THE
SOUTHEASTERN PORTION OF THE AREA SATURDAY MORNING...GENERALLY EAST
OF A LINE FROM PENSACOLA TO ANDALUSIA...WITH POPS TAPERING TO LOW
END CHANCE OVER THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE AREA.  WILL SEE NEARLY AN
ADDITIONAL HALF INCH OF RAIN OVER THE EASTERNMOST COUNTIES OF
COVINGTON AND OKALOOSA TAPERING TO A TENTH OF AN INCH TO QUARTER
INCH OTHERWISE EAST OF I-65.  CHANCE POPS FOLLOW FOR SATURDAY
AFTERNOON GENERALLY EAST OF I-65 TAPERING TO DRY CONDITIONS OVER THE
INTERIOR NORTHWESTERN PORTION AS THE FRONT CONTINUES EASTWARD AND
DEEP LAYER DRY AIR WORKS INTO THE AREA.  SURFACE BASED CAPE VALUES
OF 300-500 J/KG ALONG WITH 0-1 KM HELICITIES AROUND 150 M2/S2 WILL
BE PRESENT SATURDAY MORNING GENERALLY EAST OF A PENSACOLA TO
ANDALUSIA LINE...AND IN THIS REGION THERE IS POSSIBLE STRONG TO
SEVERE STORM DEVELOPMENT DURING THE MORNING HOURS OF SATURDAY BEFORE
THE FAVORABLE SHEAR AND BEST INSTABILITY SHIFT FURTHER EAST.  HAVE
KEPT SMALL POPS MAINLY OVER THE NORTHWEST FLORIDA PANHANDLE SATURDAY
EVENING BUT OTHERWISE DRY CONDITIONS FOLLOW THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING
AS A SURFACE HIGH BUILDS INTO THE AREA IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT AND
A SURFACE LOW ADVANCES ACROSS THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PLAINS.  THE
SURFACE HIGH MOVES EAST OF THE REGION ON SUNDAY ALLOWING FOR A LIGHT
RETURN FLOW TO DEVELOP WITH DEEP LAYER MOISTURE INCREASING
SIGNIFICANTLY SUNDAY NIGHT AS THE PLAINS SURFACE LOW OCCLUDES WHILE
CONTINUING TO ADVANCE EASTWARD.  THE PLAINS SYSTEM WILL BRING
ANOTHER COLD FRONT TOWARDS THE AREA LATE SUNDAY NIGHT WHILE A WARM
FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BE LIFTING NORTHWARD THROUGH THE FORECAST
AREA.  THERE LOOKS TO BE THE POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF A SECONDARY
SURFACE LOW OVER SOUTHEASTERN LOUISIANA WHICH MOVES INTO
SOUTHEASTERN MISSISSIPPI LATE SUNDAY NIGHT.  THIS PATTERN ALONG WITH
THE SHARPLY INCREASING DEEP LAYER MOISTURE SUPPORTS POPS INCREASING
TO LIKELY BY LATE SUNDAY NIGHT.  AT THE MOMENT...MODEL GUIDANCE
SHOWS SURFACE BASED CAPE VALUES REMAINING FAIRLY LOW WITH THE
PASSAGE OF THE WARM FRONT...AND REGION OF FAIRLY HIGH SHEAR
VALUES...BUT CAPE VALUES DO INCREASE TO NEAR 500 J/KG NEAR THE COAST
BY LATE SUNDAY NIGHT.  THE GFS/ECMWF DISAGREE ON WHETHER SUFFICIENT
FAVORABLE HELICITY WILL BE PRESENT TO SUPPORT A RISK OF SEVERE
STORMS BUT WILL NEED TO CLOSELY MONITOR FOR POTENTIALLY STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS OVER THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA LATE SUNDAY
NIGHT. /29

.LONG TERM (MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)...THE OCCLUDED PLAINS SYSTEM
CONTINUES SLOWLY EASTWARD TO THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY THROUGH TUESDAY
AND BRINGING THE COLD FRONT THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA.  THE
POTENTIAL SECONDARY SURFACE LOW PRESENT LATE SUNDAY NIGHT OVER
SOUTHEASTERN MISSISSIPPI IS EXPECTED TO MEANWHILE MOVE ACROSS THE
INTERIOR PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA ON MONDAY.  HAVE GONE WITH
LIKELY POPS MONDAY MORNING GENERALLY EAST OF I-65 WITH CHANCE POPS
FURTHER WEST...THEN WILL HAVE CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE AREA MONDAY
AFTERNOON TAPERING TO SLIGHT CHANCE MONDAY NIGHT.  SURFACE BASED
CAPES CONTINUE TO INCREASE MONDAY MORNING TO AROUND 1000 J/KG MAINLY
EAST OF I-65 AND WHILE THERE CONTINUES TO BE DISAGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE GFS/ECMWF ON WHETHER SUFFICIENTLY HIGH HELICITY VALUES WILL BE
PRESENT...AT THIS TIME CONDITIONS LOOK SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT A
SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE STORMS ROUGHLY EAST OF I-65 ON MONDAY.  DRY
CONDITIONS FOLLOW FOR TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY IN THE WAKE OF THE
FRONT AS DRY HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION.  MAY SEE SOME
ISOLATED LIGHT RAIN WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS A VIGOROUS SHORTWAVE MOVES
ACROSS THE REGION BUT OTHERWISE WILL HAVE DRY CONDITIONS FOR
THURSDAY AS WELL.  TEMPERATURES WILL GENERALLY BE NEAR SEASONABLE
LEVELS THROUGH THE PERIOD. /29

&&

.MARINE...A WEAKENING COLD FRONT OVER SOUTHERN PARTS OF ALABAMA AND
MISSISSIPPI THIS MORNING WILL CONTINUE TO SHIFT SOUTHWARD SLOWLY
TOWARDS THE MARINE AREA THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING. AHEAD OF THE FRONT
A MODERATE ONSHORE WIND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THIS EVENING BECOMING
WEST TO NORTHWEST ALONG THE FRONT LATE BY SATURDAY MORNING. AS THE
COLD FRONT MOVES FURTHER OFFSHORE LATE SATURDAY THROUGH EARLY SUNDAY
A MODERATE NORTHERLY WIND FLOW CAN BE EXPECTED. BY LATE SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY WINDS BECOME EAST THEN SOUTHEAST IN RESPONSE TO ANOTHER COLD
FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE WEST. WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE HIGHER NEAR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH EARLY SATURDAY. SEAS WILL
GENERALLY RANGE FROM 3 TO 5 FEET FROM 0 TOP 60 NM GENERALLY WITH
ONSHORE FLOW THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING. WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE HIGHER
NEAR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH EARLY SATURDAY.
32/EE

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...VERY HIGH MOISTURE LEVELS ALONG WITH PERIODS OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MAKE FOR WET CONDITIONS TODAY AND
TONIGHT AND MUCH OF SATURDAY MORNING AS A COLD FRONT MOVES SLOWLY
THROUGH THE AREA.  DRY CONDITIONS FOLLOW FOR SATURDAY NIGHT AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION THEN SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS RETURN TO THE AREA BY SUNDAY NIGHT AS ANOTHER COLD
FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST.  THIS NEXT COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH
THE AREA ON MONDAY WITH SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THEN DRY CONDITIONS RETURN TO THE AREA BY TUESDAY.

FOG POTENTIAL AND OTHER REMARKS...PATCHY FOG IS POSSIBLE THIS
MORNING WITH AREAS OF FOG LIKELY TONIGHT WITH VISIBILITIES REDUCED
TO BETWEEN ONE AND THREE MILES. /29
