630 PM CDT SAT JUN 29 2013

.AVIATION [30.00Z TAF ISSUANCE]...AHEAD OF A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY...CLUSTERS OF TSRA TRACKING SOUTHEAST...NORTH OF THE
TERMINALS. TSRA POSSIBLE AT THE TERMINALS THRU 02Z WITH CLOUD BASES
AT 4 KFT. MVFR VSBYS IN TSRA ALONG WITH VARIABLE STRONG WIND GUSTS
WITH THE PASSAGE OF STORM OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES IN THE EVENING. CONVECTIVE
ACTIVITY SHOULD SPREAD SOUTH OF THE COAST BY AND AFTER 03Z. /10

/ PREVIOUS DISCUSSION /345 PM CDT SAT JUN 29 2013 /

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND SUNDAY)...A LARGE UPPER LONGWAVE TROUGH
OVER THE EASTERN CONUS WILL CONTINUE TO DIG SOUTHWARD WITH THE BASE
SETTLING OVER THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO THROUGH THE PERIOD. THIS
WILL ALLOW A FRONTAL BOUNDARY JUST NORTHWEST OF THE AREA TO MOVE
SOUTHEAST OVER NIGHT. A LINE OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
REDEVELOPING NORTH OF HIGHWAY 84 THIS AFTERNOON WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST
WITH THE BOUNDARY ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA THROUGH THE
EVENING HOURS. A FEW STRONG TO POTENTIALLY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE POSSIBLE. THE PRIMARY THUNDERSTORM HAZARDS WILL BE BRIEF STRONG
TO LOCALLY DAMAGING WINDS...NUMEROUS CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING
STRIKES...AND VERY HEAVY RAINS. THE STORMS WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST OFF
THE COAST AFTER MIDNIGHT...WILL REDEVELOP AGAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS
THE FRONT STALLS. EXPECT ISOLATED COVERAGE NORTHWEST OF I-65 AND
SCATTERED COVERAGE SOUTHEAST OF I-65. THERE WILL REMAIN A MODERATE
RISK OF DANGEROUS RIP CURRENTS ALONG AREA BEACHES TONIGHT AND SUNDAY.

LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WILL RANGE FROM 65 TO 70 DEGREES NORTHWEST
OF I-65...FROM 70 TO 75 DEGREES SOUTHEAST OF I-65. HIGH TEMPERATURES
SUNDAY WILL RANGE FROM 88 TO 93 DEGREES INLAND AREAS WITH MID 80S
ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST. /22

&&

.LONG TERM (MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)...GLOBAL MODELS AGREE ON
DEVELOPING A CLOSED LOW ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO
MONDAY WITH A TRAILING TROUGH THROUGH THE CENTRAL GULF COAST. IN
ADDITION...A WEAK SFC LOW IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER SOUTH CENTRAL
ALABAMA AND THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE. THIS WILL KEEP CHANCES OF RAIN
GOING ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF THE REGION...WHILE CONDITIONS WILL
BE DRIER TO THE WEST AS A DRIER AIRMASS MOVES INTO THE BASE OF THE
UPPER TROUGH. THE UPPER TROUGH WILL RETROGRADE WESTWARD TUESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY IN RESPONSE TO THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE OVER THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC BUILDING WESTWARD. THIS WILL SETUP A SOUTHWESTERLY UPPER
FLOW PATTERN ACROSS THE AREA BETWEEN THE TWO UPPER SYSTEMS RESULTING
IN DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE RETURNING TO THE AREA. DISTURBANCES IN THE
SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL COMBINE WITH PW VALUES AROUND 2 INCHES TO CREATE
ABOVE NORMAL CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE MIDDLE AND
LATTER PARTS OF THE WEEK. AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPS WILL ONLY TOP OUT IN
THE UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90 EACH DAY DEPENDING ON WHEN RAINFALL
BEGINS EACH DAY. /13

&&

.MARINE...LIGHT TO MODERATE WESTERLY TO SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL
PERSIST THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS A SURFACE LOW OVER THE OHIO RIVER
VALLEY SETTLES SOUTHWARD INTO THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO. THE WINDS
WILL THEN BECOME LIGHTER AND MORE VARIABLE IN DIRECTION MONDAY AND
TUESDAY. LIGHT TO MODERATE SOUTHERLY FLOW SHOULD RETURN BY MID TO
LATE IN THE WEEK AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE DEVELOPS ACROSS THE
EASTERN SEABOARD. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL
DEVELOP OVER THE MARINE AREA EACH DAY. WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE
LOCALLY HIGHER NEAR ANY THUNDERSTORM THAT DEVELOPS. /22
