AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
314 AM EDT Tue Mar 18 2014

.Near Term [Through Today]...
The large scale split flow pattern overnight was highlighted in Nrn
stream by a polar jet stretching from the Great Lakes into New
England, and, in Srn stream, by a positively tilted upper trough
becoming more neutrally oriented as assocd subtropical jet currently
over the Ern Gulf of Mexico stretches northeastward over the
Carolinas. At the surface...weak low tracking across N/Cntrl Gulf of
Mex with SW-NE oriented cold front to another weak low just off SE
GA coast. This boundary was moving across Ern counties providing
just enough lift to generate an area of rain over extreme Ern
counties. Meanwhile...a robust H5 shortwave feature was moving
EWD over Nrn Gulf along the NW edge of the subtropical jet providing
a cold pool and enhanced mid-level lapse rates. This was enhancing
the development of an area of a second expanding area of light to
moderate rain. Any heavier rain should remain closer to Gulf surface
low and base of trough with strong QG forcing.

During today...the shortwave and cold front will progress Ewd to
Atlc coast after sunrise sweeping rain Ewd. This reflected in all
the HI RES guidance (WRF/HRRR/AR4/NM4). In their wake...a surface
ridge shifts Ewd to over NE gulf while a cool wedge of high pressure
drops down Ern seaboard. Noticeably drier and cooler air will begin
to overspread the region. RAP13 soundings show PWATs decreasing in
half from about 1.2 to 0.6 inches from 07Z thru 17Z. 24HR temp/dew
point comparison in Wrn GA running 15 to 20 degrees cooler and drier
than same time yesterday. A small chance of rain will linger across
the Ern counties into late morning then no rain is expected. The
primary effect of the cool wedge will be to inhibit mixing...
maintain low clouds into the late afternoon and yielding a sharp
NE-SW temp gradient. Expect high temps to range from the upper 50s
to around 60 degrees across the northern half of our GA counties to
around 70 across coastal counties.

.Short Term [Tonight Through Thursday]...
The short term period will be fairly quiet with improving weather,
especially by Thursday. Tonight, the cold wedge will gradually
start to erode as a frontal system moves into the Tennessee Valley
by Wednesday morning. The tricky portion for our region is whether
the wedge erodes quick enough for skies to clear out overnight, or
if the stratus hangs on until after daybreak on Wednesday. It is
assumed that the stratus deck will hang on long enough across
Southern Georgia and perhaps into the Florida Big Bend to keep
temperatures from dropping to the much cooler values indicated in
the MET guidance. Further west, into Southeast Alabama and the
Florida Panhandle, skies should be mostly clear, so better
radiational cooling conditions should result in temperatures
dropping into the low to mid 40s.

Wednesday...the warm up begins as the wedge is scoured out
completely by the approaching dry frontal boundary. Mostly sunny
skies and light southerly flow will allow for temperatures to warm
into the mid to upper 70s across the region.

Thursday...An even better day is anticipated as the frontal
boundary washes out to the north of the region and skies stay
mostly clear. A few sites in the Florida Big Bend and South
Central Georgia will take a run at 80 degrees while most other
inland sites will be in the upper 70s. Coastal sites will stay
relatively cool thanks to the colder shelf waters with highs only
in the lower 70s.

.Long Term [Thursday Night Through Tuesday]...
In general, the extended range forecast should start off quite
pleasant, with essentially low-level high pressure and upper level
zonal flow prevailing. By the weekend a southern stream impulse
will phase in with a northern stream shortwave and could allow for
some scattered showers around the area through Monday, though
significant rainfall or thunderstorm activity is not anticipated
at this time.

&&

.Aviation...[Through 06Z Wednesday]...
Areas of rain will continue to impact mainly
ABY/VLD/TLH past sunrise before moving ewd. Expect low ceilings in
the MVFR range thru 12Z, with IFR conditions likely and LIFR
ceilings possible in any heavy rain. Ceilings will likely improve
from SW to NE this morning across the region, but low clouds in the
IFR/MVFR range could persist through at least 18Z Tuesday and to the
marginal MVFR 18z-00z in our eastern and especially NE areas.
Elsewhere... expect VFR conditions everywhere to at least 06Z Wed.

&&

.Marine...
Southerly swell has driven the marine area seas to around 7 feet
at times well offshore this morning and a brief increase in
winds right behind the frontal boundary has created solid
cautionary conditions. Expect this to be only temporary as the
pressure gradient should collapse later this afternoon resulting
in lighter winds. Seas will still take some time to die down due
to the swell component. More tranquil conditions are expected by
Wednesday afternoon continuing into the weekend.

&&

.Fire Weather...
In the wake of a departing cold front...high pressure will
overspread the local region today bringing a noticeably cooler and
drier airmass especially into tomorrow. Relative humidity values
will still stay above critical thresholds. The airmass will further
dry out on Thursday with minimum inland RH dropping into the 20s
and will be monitored for possible red flag conditions. The airmass
will begin to moisten up again Friday into the weekend.

&&

.Hydrology...
Additional rainfall received overnight will likely total up
between 0.75 to 1 inch before stopping just after sunrise across
the region. With already saturated grounds, much of this will
likely runoff into the already elevated rivers pushing river
points, particularly in North Florida a little higher. Of
particular concern this morning is the Sopchoppy River which
continues to rise and will likely be above minor flood stage by
morning. Steady rises continue on the Aucilla, Ochlockonee, and
Witlachoochee Rivers as well. Only minor flood stages should be
reached on these rivers, with the possible exception of the
Sopchoppy River near Sopchoppy which has a chance of reaching the
moderate flood category.

With no significant rainfall expected for the rest of the week
(and likely through the weekend) most of the river points will
crest late this week or early this weekend. The exception to this
will be the Suwannee River, which will continue to rise well into
next week as routed flows from the Upper Suwannee and the
Withlacoochee progress downstream. It doesn't look like there's
enough water in the system to reach minor flood stage at any of
the points from Ellaville southward, but this is something that
will need to be monitored moving into next week.
