MOST MODEL GUIDANCE IS LIFTING IT OUT WAY TOO QUICKLY IN RESPONSE TO THE AMPLIFIED SYSTEM THAT IS SET TO DIG SOUTHEAST LATER TONIGHT. MEANWHILE...PW VALUES NEAR TWO INCHES...70S DEWPOINTS...AND TEMPERATURES SOME 20 TO 30 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL KEEP FEEDING THIS MONSTER. INSTABILITY VALUES REMAIN HIGH...AGGRAVATING THE SITUATION WITH PROLONGED...TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS. I WOULD EXPECT SEVERAL MORE INCHES OF RAIN BEFORE THE DEEP LAYER RIDGING TO OUR SOUTH AND EAST WINS OUT AND THIS BOUNDARY FINALLY LIFTS OUT TO NORTH. THE SHEAR HAS CONTINUED TO DWINDLE OVER TIME...KEEPING THE THREAT OF TORNADOES AND WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WINDS TO A MINIMUM. THROUGH THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS...PLEASE REMAIN VIGILANT AND SEEK HIGHER GROUND. THIS AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. FLOODING KILLS MORE PEOPLE THAN ANY OTHER SEVERE WEATHER THREAT! TAKE IT SERIOUSLY IF YOU LIVE IN ANY AREA NORTH OF INTERSTATE 59! 17/KLAWS && .AVIATION... 00Z TAF DISCUSSION. ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE SHOULD BRING CIGS BACK INTO THE IFR CATEGORY OVERNIGHT. CONFIDENCE IS LOW IN THE VIS FORECAST AS SOME PATCHY DENSE FOG COULD BE POSSIBLE IF WINDS BECOME LIGHT/CALM. AT THIS TIME...THE BEST CHANCE OF THIS OCCURRING WOULD BE ACROSS THE SOUTH SO WILL LEAVE A TEMPO IN NEAR SUNRISE FOR NOW. CIGS MAY STAY IFR FOR MOST OF THE DAY ACROSS THE NORTH AS WELL. 16 && .FIRE WEATHER... THE UNUSUALLY WARM AND WET WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
