Area forecast discussion, Jun 10, 7:38 PM EDT, 11 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL 738 PM EDT WED JUN 10 2015 .AVIATION... STORMS LEFT IN FOR KPBI THIS EVENING WITH A CELL MOVING PARALELL TO THE COAST SOUTH OF THE TERMINAL, AND CLUSTER APPROACHING FROM THE SW. TEMPO MVFR CONDS ARE POSSIBLE AS THIS ACTIVITY ARRIVES OVER THE NEXT HOUR OR SO. SHOWERS AND STORMS BECOMING WIDELY SCATTERED BY MIDNIGHT REGIONWIDE. DEEPER EASTERLY FLOW ARRIVES INTO THURSDAY, WITH STORMS LESS NUMEROUS AND FOCUSED MORE ACROSS THE INTERIOR AND WEST COAST. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 316 PM EDT WED JUN 10 2015/ DISCUSSION... ONGOING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO PUSH TO THE NORTHEAST AT A MORE RAPID PACE THAN SEEN YESTERDAY THANKS TO SLIGHTLY STRONGER NORTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT. THIS SHOULD REDUCE THE OVERALL FLOOD THREAT. HOWEVER...BRIEF LOCALIZED URBAN FLOODING WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE AS HEAVIER THUNDERSTORMS TRACK ACROSS URBAN AREAS. STILL BELIEVE THE COVERAGE AND OVERALL INTENSITY OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON SHOULD BE SOMEWHAT SIMILAR TO THAT OF YESTERDAY WITH FREQUENT CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING BEING THE MAIN THREAT. HOWEVER...DUE TO THE QUICKER STORM MOTION...OUTFLOW BOUNDARY INTERACTION MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO CONVECTIVE ENHANCEMENT AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUBSEQUENT CONVECTION...THUS POSSIBLY REDUCING OVERALL COVERAGE AND INTENSITY. ISOLATED SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS COULD LINGER INTO THE LATE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE GULF WATERS WITH CLOSER PROXIMITY TO MID LEVEL TROUGHING. MODELS ARE STILL IN AGREEMENT USHERING IN AN EASTERLY FLOW REGIME BEGINNING THURSDAY AND PERSISTING THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND INTO NEXT WEEK. HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC WILL BUILD BACK ACROSS THE FLORIDA PENINSULA THROUGH THIS TIME PERIOD BECOMING THE DOMINANT WEATHER FEATURE. THE STRONGER RIDGING WILL ALSO ALLOW OVERALL COVERAGE OF AFTERNOON CONVECTION TO DECREASE AND BE RELEGATED MAINLY TO THE INTERIOR AND GULF COASTAL AREAS DUE TO THE MORE EASTERLY FLOW PATTERN. SYNOPTIC SCALE PATTERN LOOKS TO REMAIN FAIRLY CONSISTENT LOOKING LONG RANGE WITH EASTERLY FLOW PERPETUATING ALONG WITH STRONG RIDGING BEING PREDOMINANT. THIS WILL RESULT IN A FAIRLY DRY PATTERN FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. AVIATION... SCT/NUM TSRA ONGOING IN SOFLA THIS AFTERNOON...AND COVERAGE WILL INCREASE FUTURE BY LATE AFTERNOON. TEMPO MVFR CONDITIONS IN PLACE AT ALL TERMINALS THROUGH 22Z. MOST AREAS WILL BE DRY BY MIDNIGHT...WITH THU TSRA HOLDING OFF UNTIL AFTERNOON. AWAY FROM CONVECTION...SE WINDS 5-10 KT EXPECTED. MARINE... HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA BEGINNING ON THURSDAY USHERING IN AN EASTERLY FLOW REGIME. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL CONTINUE THROUGH AT LEAST THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
