AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL
930 AM EDT WED MAY 14 2014

.DISCUSSION...

...GUSTY ALONG THE SPACE/TREASURE COASTS TODAY...
...RAIN CHANCES INCREASE FOR TODAY AND ESPECIALLY THURSDAY...

CURRENT...DEEP LAYER RIDGE PRESENTLY OVER FLORIDA AND THE SOUTHEAST
UNITED STATE. DEEP SOUTHEAST FLOW AS INDICATED BY THE 915MHZ
VERTICAL WIND PROFILER(S) AT THE SPACE CENTER AND THE MORNING
SOUNDINGS FROM CAPE CANAVERAL...MIAMI AND KEY WEST. THE SOUNDINGS
ALSO ARE REPORTING PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES 1.7 TO 1.8 INCHES. THE
RADAR MOSAIC LOOP IS SHOWING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHEAST FLOW THAT ARE MOVING TO THE NORTHWEST
AT AROUND 20 MPH PER THE AWIPS DISTANCE SPEED TOOL.

THIS AFTERNOON...DEPENDING ON WHERE ONE IS LOCATED...SKIES WILL
RANGE FROM PARTLY CLOUDY TO CLOUDY SO THE FORECAST CONSIDERABLE
CLOUDINESS LOOKS TO BE A NICE AVERAGE FOR THE AFTERNOON. THE SHOWERS
AND STORMS SHOULD INCREASE IN COVERAGE WITH DAYTIME HEATING. THE
WINDS SHOULD INCREASE AS THE STRONGER WINDS JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE
START MIXING DOWN LATE MORNING AND THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THE LAKE
WIND ADVISORY AT THE COAST FROM BREVARD TO MARTIN COUNTY LOOKS GOOD.

AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPERATURES OF MID 80S AT THE COAST AND THE UPPER
80S TO AROUND 90 FOR THE INTERIOR ARE OK.

PREVIOUS ZONES DISCUSSION

CURRENT...ANOTHER WARM MORNING WITH CURRENT TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S
AND MUGGY CONDITIONS EXIST WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW 70S AREAWIDE.
NEXRAD 88D SHOWS SCT SHOWERS/SPRINKLES OVER THE COASTAL WATERS
OCCASIONALLY MAKING IT ONSHORE AND MAINLY DISSIPATING AS THEY PASS
WEST OF I-95...WITH MARTIN COUNTY THE ONE EXCEPTION. AN ISOLATED
RUMBLE OR THUNDER CANNOT BE RULED OUT EARLY THIS MORNING ALONG THE
TREASURE COAST. A BRIEF DOWNPOUR CAN BE EXPECTED WITH THIS ACTIVITY.

TODAY-TONIGHT...A FAIRLY TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT MOST EVERYWHERE
TODAY WITH EAST TO EAST-SOUTHEAST WINDS INCREASING TO AROUND 15-20
MPH WITH HIGHER GUSTS ACROSS MUCH OF THE INTERIOR BY THIS AFTERNOON
AND AROUND 20 MPH SUSTAINED NEAR THE SPACE/TREASURE COASTS WITH
FREQUENT HIGHER GUSTS. WILL HOIST A LAKE WIND ADVISORY ALONG THE
COAST FROM NORTH BREVARD THROUGH MARTIN COUNTY. WINDS WILL VEER TO
SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT BUT WILL STAY ELEVATED NEAR 10
MPH ACROSS MUCH OF THE INTERIOR AND AROUND 15 MPH WITH HIGHER GUSTS
ALONG THE COAST SOUTH FROM THE CAPE.

DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE ACROSS EAST CENTRAL
FLORIDA THIS MORNING. GFS HINTS AT A DRIER POCKET OF AIR MOVING IN
BEHIND THIS SURGE ACROSS THE EAST COAST IN THE AFTERNOON...BUT
INCREASING VALUES AGAIN TONIGHT APPROACHING 1.80"-1.90". MAINLY
SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE THIS MORNING OVER THE AREA AS THEY
MOVE ON LAND FROM THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. AN ISOLATED LIGHTNING STORM
ALSO REMAINS POSSIBLE THIS MORNING. INCREASING PRECIPITATION CHANCES
THIS AFTERNOON INLAND FROM THE COAST AS THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE
MOVES INLAND PROVIDING A BOUNDARY FOR CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT ALONG
WITH SURFACE HEATING. HIGHEST POPS THIS AFTERNOON EXPECTED INTO THE
INTERIOR AND EVENTUALLY LATE DAY/EVENING INTO WEST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

AFTER SHOWERS/ISOLD STORMS EXIT LATE TODAY TO THE WEST EXPECT A
BRIEF LULL IN SHOWERS/ISOLATED STORMS...BUT WILL NOT RULE THEM OUT
COMPLETELY EARLY THIS EVENING. EXPECT A NOCTURNAL INCREASE LATER IN
THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT AS ADDITIONAL MOISTURE SURGES INTO THE
AREA AND WILL KEEP HIGHEST POPS ALONG THE COAST...DUE TO GREATER
MOISTURE CONVERGENCE THERE.

STILL EXPECTING MIDDLE 80S FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES ALONG THE COAST
WITH UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90 DEGREE INLAND. LOWS CONTINUE MILD
TONIGHT AND IN THE 70S.

THU...HIGH MOISTURE WITH NEAR 2 INCHES PRECIPITABLE WATER WILL
ADVECT NORTHWARD OVER THE AREA AHEAD OF A COOL FRONT APPROACHING
FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. WITH THIS BOUNDARY MOVING INTO A VERY
MOIST AIR MASS...WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR POTENTIAL OF HEAVY
RAIN...ESPECIALLY IF WEAK LOW INDICATED BY THE MODELS IN THE
EASTERN GULF MATERIALIZES AND PROVIDES MORE FOCUSED LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENCE. MOS POPS ARE 70-80 PERCENT AND WITH VALUES LIKE
THAT...GUIDANCE IS USUALLY DIFFICULT TO BEAT.

EXPECT THAT THERE WILL BE CONSIDERABLE CLOUDINESS SO KNOCKED A
COUPLE DEGREES OFF OF MOS MAX TEMPS WHICH WERE IN THE LOWER 90S
AT MANY SITES. WITH SLIGHTLY LIMITED SURFACE HEATING AND AVERAGE
LOOKING MID LEVEL TEMPS...THE MAIN THUNDERSTORM HAZARDS SHOULD BE
LIGHTNING AND HEAVY RAINFALL.

THE HEAVIER FRONTAL BAND PRECIP SHOULD GRADUALLY END FROM WEST TO
EAST THU EVENING AND HAVE GENERALLY FOLLOWED MOS POPS WHICH ARE
AROUND 40 PERCENT. SOME LINGERING LIGHT PRECIP MAY CONTINUE PAST
MIDNIGHT ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTH.

FRI...THE FRONT IS FORECAST TO BE OFFSHORE BY SUNRISE WITH DRIER
AIR ADVECTING IN. THE GFS SHOWS A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR RAIN IN THE
MORNING ACROSS THE TREASURE COAST AND FOR CONTINUITY WITH PREVIOUS
FORECAST...WILL LEAVE THIS SMALL CHANCE. WEAK COOL AIR ADVECTION
WILL KEEP MAX TEMPS BELOW NORMAL...MAINLY LOWER 80S WITH SOME MID
80S INLAND.

SAT-NEXT WED...FLOW ALOFT FLATTENS OUT OVER THE WEEKEND AND THEN
TURNS NORTHWEST EARLY/MID WEEK. HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL EXTEND
OVER THE AREA BEHIND THE FRONT OVER THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL KEEP IT
DRY AND TEMPS WILL RUN A FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL...WITH MINS
MAINLY LOWER/MID 60S AND HIGHS IN THE MID 80S WITH A FEW UPPER 80S
OVER THE INTERIOR. A WEAK BACK DOOR FRONT SLIDING OFFSHORE EARLY
NEXT WEEK IS SHOWN BY THE GFS PRODUCING WEAK MOISTURE CONVERGENCE.
MOS POPS ARE BELOW 20 PERCENT...SO WILL NOT INTRODUCE SHOWER
CHANCES. TEMPS EARLY-MID WEEK LOOK AVERAGE...LOWS MID-UPPER 60S
AND HIGHS MID-UPPER 80S.

&&

.AVIATION...
SHORT LIVED MVFR/IFR CEILINGS AS AREAS OF LOW CLOUDS...SHOWERS AND
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS COME OFF THE OCEAN AND WORK THEIR WAY QUICKLY
FROM THE COAST INLAND TO KLEE. FIRST FEW VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGES
INDICATE GOING VFR WITH STATUS FRAC AND STRATOCU/FL010-FL040 BEST
BET FOR THE AFTERNOON.

PREVIOUS AVIATION DISCUSSION

GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE...EXCEPT BRIEF MVFR
IN WDLY SCT SHRA/ISOLD TSRA ACTIVITY...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE COAST
THIS MORNING...TRANSITIONING INTO THE INTERIOR THIS AFTERNOON WITH
THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE. HIGHER SHRA/ISOLD TSRA ACROSS
CNTRL/WCNTRL THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. GUSTY ESE WINDS EXPECTED TODAY
WITH SPEEDS INCREASING TO AROUND 15 KTS INTERIOR WITH HIGHER GUSTS
BY AFTERNOON. FROM KTIX-KMLB-KVRB-KFPR-KSUA ESE WINDS INCREASING TO
15-20 KTS WITH FREQUENT GUSTS TO AROUND 25 KTS IN THE AFTERNOON.
NOCTURNAL SHRA/ISOLD TSRA TONIGHT AS ADDITIONAL MOISTURE SURGES INTO
THE AREA AND FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO THE WEST SLOWLY APPROACHES.

&&

.MARINE...

CURRENT-THIS AFTERNOON...THE NOAA AND SCRIPPS BUOYS FROM 4NM OFF
PORT CANAVERAL TO 12NM EAST OF NEW SMYRNA BEACH WERE RECORDING
SOUTHEAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS AND SEAS RANGING FROM 4 FEET AT 4 AND
6NM OFF THE BEACH TO 5 TO 6 FEET FROM 20NM TO 120NM OFFSHORE.

THE LATEST RUC 12 HOUR FORECAST SERIES SHOWS A 3 MB GRADIENT FROM
AROUND MIAMI TO JACKSONVILLE. THIS GRADIENT SHOULD SUPPORT 15 TO 20
KNOT WINDS.

FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING THE SMALL CRAFT EXERCISE CAUTION IS
GOOD. THE GRADIENT TIGHTENS MORE LATE OVERNIGHT AS THE FRONT
CURRENTLY OVER MISSISSIPPI AND WESTERN TENNESSEE MOVES EAST TO THE
FLORIDA PANHANDLE AND NORTHEAST GULF OF MEXICO.

PREVIOUS MARINE DISCUSSION

TODAY-TONIGHT...ESE WINDS 15-20 KTS ACROSS MUCH OF THE COASTAL
WATERS THRU THE PERIOD. SEAS BUILDING TO 4-6 FT NEAR SHORE SOUTH
OF THE BREVARD-VOLUSIA COUNTY LINE AND 5-6 FT OFFSHORE. WILL
CONTINUE CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS FOR SMALL CRAFT FOR ALL MARINE
ZONES EXCEPT NEAR SHORE VOLUSIA COUNTY. BORDERLINE SCA CONDITIONS
LATE THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING AWAY FROM THE COAST AS WINDS APPROACH
20 KTS AND SEA BUILD TO 6 FT. WILL BRIEF DAY SHIFT AND ALLOW THEM
TO UPGRADE FOR LATE TODAY OR TONIGHT IF NECESSARY.

THU-FRI...POOR TO MARGINALLY HAZARDOUS BOATING CONDITIONS
AHEAD/BEHIND COOL FRONT. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL BE 15-20 KNOTS THU
THEN BECOME NORTHWEST EARLY FRI. A HIGH COVERAGE OF SHOWERS/STORMS
WILL OCCUR THU INTO THU EVENING THEN FRI LOOKS DRY EXCEPT FOR FAR
SOUTHERN WATERS IN THE MORNING.

WEEKEND...HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDING ACROSS NORTH FLORIDA WILL
PROVIDE A MAINLY NORTHEAST WIND FLOW. SPEEDS LOOK TO BE 10-15
KNOTS AND AROUND 15 KNOTS IN THE GULF STREAM.
