AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
202 PM EDT SAT AUG 16 2014

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT-MONDAY NIGHT)...
DEEP LAYER RIDGE THAT HAS BEEN SUPPRESSED TO THE SOUTH THE PAST
COUPLE OF DAYS WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT BACK TO THE NORTH ON SUNDAY AS
THE STRONG MID LEVEL TROUGH ACROSS THE NORTHEAST STATES LIFTS
EASTWARD. UNTIL THEN, ONE MORE ACTIVE AFTERNOON OF THUNDERSTORMS
SEEMS INEVITABLE ACROSS THE INTERIOR AND EAST COAST METRO AREAS WITH
PWAT AROUND TWO INCHES AND 500MB TEMPS AT AROUND -7C. SHOWERS
ALREADY BEGINNING TO DEVELOP AS OF 17Z AND MOVE TO THE NORTHEAST IN
THE SOUTHWEST STEERING FLOW. THE BAND OF MOISTURE OVER SOUTH FLORIDA
ASSOCIATED WITH THE NORTHEAST TROUGH WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT EAST ON
SUNDAY AND MONDAY WITH DRIER AIR MOVING INTO THE REGION, ESPECIALLY
ON MONDAY WITH LOWER PWATS BOTH DAYS. THE GFS, NAM AND ECMWF ARE ALL
DIFFERENT IN SHOWING PWAT VALUES FOR THESE DAYS BUT STILL INDICATE A
DRYING TREND WITH THE VALUES LIKELY DROPPING INTO THE 1.3-1.5 INCH
RANGE. AEROSOL MODELS ARE ALSO SUGGESTING A LARGE SAHARAN DUST LAYER
(SAL) WILL MOVE ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA ON SUNDAY WHICH WILL LIKELY
CREATE A MILKY LOOK TO THE SKY ALONG WITH DIMINISHING THE THREAT FOR
CONVECTION. THE RIDGE MOVING BACK NORTH ALONG WITH THE DRIER AIR AND
SAL WILL COMBINE TO DECREASE THE AMOUNT OF THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE.
SEA BREEZE BOUNDARIES WILL ALSO BE THE PRIMARY LIFTING MECHANISM
WHICH TENDS TO LIMIT COVERAGE.

.LONG TERM (TUESDAY-SATURDAY)...
A RETURN TO A DEEP EASTERLY FLOW WILL BE THE DOMINATE WEATHER MAKER
THROUGH THE ENTIRE EXTENDED PERIOD. THE RIDGE AXIS WILL SET UP FROM
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO CENTRAL FLORIDA AND INTO THE ATLANTIC FROM
TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. PWATS THROUGH THIS PERIOD WILL RANGE FROM
1.5 TO 1.7 INCHES SO SCATTERED POPS WILL RESULT MAINLY ACROSS THE
INTERIOR AND WEST COAST.

&&

.AVIATION...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING NEAR ALL TERMINALS EARLY
THIS AFTERNOON...WITH AT LEAST SCATTERED ACTIVITY EXPECTED UNTIL
AROUND SUNSET. BEST LIKELIHOOD FOR CONVECTION APPEARS BETWEEN 19-
21Z...SO TEMPO TSRA ADDED FOR THOSE TIMES.  GUSTY WINDS AND LOCALLY
SIGNIFICANT RESTRICTIONS ARE LIKELY IN/NEAR THUNDERSTORMS...OTHERWISE
LIGHT SOUTHEAST WINDS AND VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL INTO SUNDAY.
DRIER AIRMASS SUNDAY WILL REDUCE RAIN CHANCES...SO NO VCSH/VCTS
THROUGH 18Z ATTM.

&&

.MARINE...
BY SUNDAY, WINDS ARE FORECAST TO BECOME EAST TO SOUTHEAST ACROSS
ALL WATERS WHILE REMAINING AROUND OR BELOW 10 KNOTS AND PERSISTING
