AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
919 PM CST SAT JAN 24 2015

.ZONE UPDATE...TEMPERATURE HAS DROPPED AWAY FAST TO BELOW THE
FORECAST MINIMUM AS OF 9 PM. IT IS LIKELY A LOW HANGING INVERSION HAS
ALREADY FORMED...AND WITH CALM CONDITIONS...MIXING HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN
WITH RADIATION HAVING TAKEN OVER. WE ARE THEREFORE LOWERING AREA
FORECAST OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES SEVERAL DEGREES. 77/BD

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 249 PM CST SAT JAN 24 2015/

SHORT TERM [TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT]...A DRY WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT GENERALLY PREVAILS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON IN
THE WAKE OF A MID LEVEL TROUGH THAT IS PUSHING EASTWARD TOWARD THE
EAST COAST REGION. VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS CLEAR SKIES HAVE
RETURNED TO THE CWFA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AS ALL LOW CLOUD COVER HAS
PUSHED WELL OFFSHORE AND HAS DISSIPATED OVER INLAND AREAS.
NORTHWESTERLY WINDS REMAIN A LITTLE GUSTY...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE
COAST WHERE A FEW GUSTS BETWEEN 20 AND 25 MPH HAVE BEEN OBSERVED.

GENERALLY CLEAR SKIES ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA TONIGHT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF PERHAPS A FEW HIGH THIN CLOUDS
WITHIN THE ZONAL FLOW PATTERN ALOFT. WINDS WILL DIMINISH AFTER
SUNSET AND BECOME LIGHT WEST TO SOUTHWEST THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT
AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO
AND CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION. LOWS TONIGHT ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE
FROM THE LOWER TO MID 30S ACROSS INTERIOR PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST
AREA...AND IN THE UPPER 30S TO AROUND 40 NEAR THE COAST. THE NEXT
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL DEEPEN AS IT MOVES FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS
AND UPPER MIDWESTERN STATES TONIGHT TO NEAR THE TENNESSEE VALLEY
REGION BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. A DRY WESTERLY FLOW PATTERN ALOFT WILL
PERSIST ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA ON THE BASE OF THE DEEPENING
LOW/TROUGH AXIS SUNDAY...AND DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
ACROSS OUR REGION. THERE MAY BE SOME INCREASED LOWER LEVEL CLOUD
COVER/STRATOCUMULUS DEVELOPMENT OVER INTERIOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST
MS AND SOUTHWEST AL BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON...BUT MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES
SHOULD OTHERWISE CONTINUE. WE HAVE OPTED TO TREND TEMPERATURES
TOWARD THE COOLER GUIDANCE SUNDAY...WITH HIGHS EXPECTED TO REACH THE
LOWER 60S AT BEST ACROSS MOST LOCATIONS. AN INCREASING PRESSURE GRADIENT
BETWEEN SURFACE RIDGING OVER THE NORTHERN GULF AND A DEEPENING AREA
OF SURFACE LOW PRESSURE OVER THE VICINITY OF SOUTHERN IN AND WESTERN
KY WILL BRING INCREASING SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS ACROSS OUR CWFA LATE
SUNDAY MORNING INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON. WIND SPEEDS MAY APPROACH THE
15-25 MPH RANGE WITH A FEW GUSTS NEARING 30 MPH NEAR THE COAST...BUT
WE CURRENTLY EXPECT GUSTS TO RANGE JUST BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS. /21

WELL DEFINED UPPER LEVEL TROUGH DROPPING SOUTHEAST INTO THE LOWER
MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY SUNDAY EVENING...SHARPENS AS IT PROGRESSES
INTO THE SOUTHEAST LATE SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS ALLOWS A REINFORCING
FRONTAL PASSAGE TO OCCUR. A LACK OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE (PRECIPITABLE
WATER VALUES AT...TO LESS THAN A HALF INCH) AHEAD OF THIS FRONT KEEPS
RAINFALL OUT OF THE FORECAST. OVERNIGHT LOWS TO RANGE FROM THE UPPER
30S INTERIOR TO THE LOWER/MID 40S COASTAL ZONES. /10

LONG TERM [MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY]...AXIS OF HIGH LEVEL TROUGH PUSHES
OFF THE EAST COAST TO START THE NEW WEEK...WITH THE LOCAL AREA BEING
DOMINATED BY A DRY...DEEP LAYER NORTHWEST FLOW MONDAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY. COULD BE A BREEZY DAY ON MONDAY...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE
COASTAL ZONES AS NORTHWEST WINDS WILL LIKELY GUST TO BETWEEN 25 AND
30 MPH THERE. SURFACE HIGH OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...EXTENDING DOWN
INTO TEXAS ON MONDAY...MOVES EAST NEXT WEEK...EXTENDING TO OFF THE
MID ATLANTIC COAST INTO THE CENTRAL GULF BY THURSDAY.

UPPER FLOW FLATTENS SOMEWHAT BY THURSDAY AS THE INFLUENCE OF THE
UPPER TROUGH MOVES OUT AND NEXT MID LEVEL SYSTEM PIVOTS ACROSS THE MID
SOUTH. MAY BE ENOUGH JET STREAK DYNAMICS AHEAD OF NEXT FRONT DROPPING
INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTHWEST TO SQUEEZE OUT A BIT OF LIGHT RAIN
OVER THE INTERIOR THURSDAY NIGHT. CONFIDENCE IN THIS...THOUGH...IS
FAIRLY LOW TO MENTION IN THE MEDIUM RANGE GIVEN THAT THE DEEP LAYER
MOISTURE PROFILES REMAIN BELOW NORMAL. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BECOMES
RE-ESTABLISHED FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

DAYTIME HIGHS FORECAST TO VARY BETWEEN THE MID 50S/MID 60S NEXT
WEEK. OVERNIGHT LOWS TO RANGE IN THE MID/UPPER 30S OVER THE INTERIOR
TO LOWER/MID 40S OVER THE COASTAL ZONES...ON AVERAGE. NOT TOO BAD FOR
THE LAST WEEK IN JANUARY. /10

AVIATION...
24.18Z TERMINAL FORECAST DISCUSSION...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS. NORTHWEST WINDS 10-15 KNOTS WITH
OCCASIONAL GUSTS AROUND 20 KNOTS CAN BE EXPECTED THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON...BEFORE WINDS BECOME WEST TO SOUTHWEST AROUND 5 KNOTS OR
LESS AFTER SUNSET. GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS SHOULD RETURN TO THE REGION
BY MID TO LATE SUNDAY MORNING. /21

MARINE...OBSERVATIONS OFFSHORE INDICATE THAT WIND SPEEDS ARE
GRADUALLY DECREASING TO WITHIN EXERCISE CAUTION RANGE AS EXPECTED
EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. HAVE CANCELLED THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY...BUT
KEEP EXERCISE CAUTION HEADLINES GOING THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
AFTERNOON. A LIGHT TO MODERATE NORTHWEST FLOW AND SUBSIDING SEAS ARE
EXPECTED TONIGHT AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE NORTH
CENTRAL GULF. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO TURN SOUTHWESTERLY AND INCREASE
IN SPEED LATE SUNDAY MORNING INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT INCREASES BETWEEN A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN
GULF AND A DEEPENING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE TENNESSEE AND OHIO
VALLEY REGIONS. WIND SPEEDS WILL LIKELY RETURN TO SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY RANGE SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY AS THE LOW PRESSURE AREA
MOVES EASTWARD AND AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT PUSHES INTO THE NORTHERN
GULF. SEAS WILL ALSO LIKELY REBUILD TO 6 TO 8 FEET AGAIN WELL
OFFSHORE LATE SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY. A MODERATE OFFSHORE FLOW THEN
LOOKS TO CONTINUE LATE MONDAY INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY BEFORE GRADUALLY
DIMINISHING BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE
SOUTHEASTERN STATES AND NORTHERN GULF. /21
