AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
641 AM CDT MON APR 7 2014

.UPDATE...
FOR 12Z AVIATION.

&&

.DISCUSSION...

ONGOING SEVERE WEATHER AND WIDESPREAD FLOODING ACROSS PORTIONS OF
CENTRAL ALABAMA THIS MORNING. ACROSS THE I-20 CORRIDOR...NUMEROUS
WATER RESCUES AND IMPASSABLE ROADS DUE TO CREEKS RISING ABOVE BANK
FULL AND 5 TO 8 INCHES OF RAINFALL. ACROSS THE SOUTH...MONITORING
THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE STORMS AND TORNADOES. THE BACK EDGE OF THE
HEAVY RAIN SHIELD IS NOW LOCATED GENERALLY FROM WARRIOR TO WOODSTOCK
TO MARION...WITH THE HEAVY RAIN AXIS SHIFTING EASTWARD TO LOCATIONS
EAST OF INTERSTATE 65. THE AIRMASS ACROSS SOUTHEAST CENTRAL ALABAMA
REMAINS CONDUCIVE FOR SEVERE STORM AND TORNADO DEVELOPMENT...WITH
TEMPERATURES REMAINING STEADY IN THE LOW 70S AND DEWPOINTS IN THE
UPPER 60S.

QUICK MODEL ANALYSIS SHOWS THE MAIN TROUGH AXIS STILL WEST OF THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER...WITH THE SURFACE LOW OVER NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI
RIVER. AS THE TROUGH SWINGS EAST AND THE LOW MOVES TO THE
NORTHEAST...THE MOISTURE FLOW INTO THE AREA WILL CONTINUE. WE ARE
ALSO BEGINNING TO SEE THE REDEVELOP ACROSS MISSISSIPPI...JUST AHEAD
OF THE COLD FRONT. CURRENT THOUGHTS ARE FOR A LOW END SEVERE THREAT
TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE WEST UNTIL THIS AXIS CLEARS THE AREA.
ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAINFALL COULD ALSO FURTHER EXACERBATE THE ALREADY
FLOODING AREAS.

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z TAF DISCUSSION.

KTOI AND KMGM WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE ISSUES WITH THUNDERSTORMS
CAUSING GUSTY WINDS AND REDUCING VIS THROUGH 14-15Z. MVFR AND IFR
CIGS AND SHOWERS COULD IMPACT AREAS TO THE NORTHWEST NEAR KBHM
BEFORE A FRONT PUSHES THROUGH LATE THIS MORNING INTO THE EARLY
AFTERNOON. VFR SHOULD CONDITIONS SHOULD RETURN BY 00Z AS WINDS
SHIFT TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST BEHIND THE FRONT.
