AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
106 PM CDT SUN AUG 9 2015

...DANGEROUS HEAT EXPECTED THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...

.UPDATE...DEEP LYR RIDGING ALOFT DRIVING THE HOT AND HUMID
CONDITIONS. CURRENT TRENDS SUGGEST THE EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING AND
ADVISORY ISSUED THIS MORNING ARE ON TRACK SO WILL KEEP THEM POSTED.
THE OTHER CONCERN IS THE POTENTIAL FOR AFTERNOON CONVECTION AND THE
POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE TSTMS. RIDGE HAS SUFFICIENTLY KEPT CONVECTION
OVER THE FORECAST AREA SUPPRESSED UP TO THIS POINT. STRONG SUBSIDENCE
APPARENT ON THE SYNOPTIC SCALE IN THE GFS DIVERGENT-Q
FIELDS...ESPECIALLY IN THE LOW AND MID LEVELS. GFS FORECAST CONTINUES
THIS TREND INTO THE EVENING. ON THE OTHER HAND...ML CAPES HAVE
CLIMBED INTO THE 2000 TO 3000 J/KG RANGE ON THE CURRENT LAPS ANALYSIS
AND A COUPLE STORMS HAVE ALREADY DEVELOPED DURING THE PAST HOUR EAST
IN WALTON COUNTY. A WEAK S/W TROUGH ALOFT ON THE EASTERN PERIPHERY
OF THE RIDGE PRESENTLY MOVING SOUTHWARD OVER OUR SOUTHEAST AL
COUNTIES...BUT THUS FAR HAS REMAINED UNCOUPLED FROM THE LOWER LEVELS.
EXPECT THE STRONG SUBSIDENCE ASSOCIATED RIDGE ALOFT WILL KEEP
CONVECTION CAPPED ACROSS INTERIOR AREAS BUT SUSPECT THE SEA BREEZE
FRONT MAY BE THE DIFFERENCE MAKER NEAR THE COAST TO UNLEASH THE
VOLATILE HEAT AND INSTABILITY DEVELOPING THIS AFTERNOON. ONCE
DEVELOPED ISOLATED SEVERE TSTMS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE PRIMARY
SEVERE THREAT BEING DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS AS THE ATMOSPHERIC
PROFILE PUTS US IN A HIGH WET MICROBURST RISK. EXPECT CONVECTION TO
DISSIPATE RAPIDLY AFTER SUNSET. /08 JW

.AVIATION...1800Z ISSUANCE...THE BIGGEST HAZARD TO FLIGHT WILL BE
THE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG AND OVER OUR
COASTAL COUNTIES THIS AFTERNOON. FLYING CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE
RAPIDLY IN AND AROUND THESE STORMS. CONVECTION SHOULD DISSIPATE
RAPIDLY FOLLOWING SUNSET. /08 JW

THIS AFTERNOON'S WET MICROBURST RISK IS HIGH.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 520 AM CDT SUN AUG 9 2015/

..DANGEROUS HEAT EXPECTED THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...

SHORT TERM [TODAY AND TONIGHT]...THE PRIMARY WEATHER IMPACTS ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA TODAY WILL ONCE AGAIN BE EXCESSIVE HEAT AND
POTENTIAL FOR A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS.

AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS CENTERED IN THE
VICINITY OF THE ARKLATEX REGION EARLY THIS MORNING...WITH THE RIDGE
AXIS NOSING EASTWARD ACROSS THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND THE
CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION. SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS QUITE A BIT OF
MID AND UPPER LEVEL CLOUD COVER ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA EARLY THIS
MORNING...REMNANT DEBRIS FROM LAST EVENING'S CONVECTION.
TEMPERATURES AND DEWPOINTS ARE STARTING OFF A LITTLE LOWER THAN THE
PAST FEW MORNINGS...BUT STILL WARM AND MUGGY ACROSS THE REGION. THE
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO STRETCH FROM TX EASTWARD TO THE
CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION THROUGH TONIGHT...WHILE A WEAK SURFACE
BOUNDARY/TROUGH AXIS EXTENDS ACROSS INTERIOR PORTIONS OF MS/AL. THE
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AXIS WILL HAVE MORE OF AN INFLUENCE ACROSS OUR
AREA TODAY...WHILE LOW LEVEL THERMAL RIDGING ALSO BECOMES ENHANCED
NEAR THE TROUGH AXIS. THESE FACTORS LOOK TO RESULT IN PLENTY OF HEAT
ACROSS THE CWA TODAY WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM
THE MID 90S NEAR THE COAST TO THE UPPER 90S TO AROUND 100 INLAND.
SURFACE DEWPOINTS WILL REMAIN IN THE LOWER TO MID 70S ALONG WITH
THESE READINGS TODAY...POSSIBLY RISING INTO THE UPPER 70S OR NEAR 80
AGAIN FOLLOWING SEABREEZE PASSAGE OVER SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA
THIS AFTERNOON. ALL OF THE LATEST INDICATIONS POINT TO MAXIMUM HEAT
INDICES REACHING 107-112 ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHWEST AL AND THE
NORTHWEST FL PANHANDLE...WHERE A HEAT ADVISORY WILL REMAIN IN
EFFECT. THE WARMER HIGH TEMPERATURES COULD RESULT IN MAXIMUM HEAT
INDICES AROUND 113 OVER MUCH OF SOUTHEAST MS...AND POSSIBLY INTO
MOBILE COUNTY...SO AFTER COORDINATION WITH SURROUNDING OFFICES HAVE
OPTED TO INCLUDE THESE LOCATIONS IN THE EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING TODAY.

ONE CAVEAT WILL BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS THIS
AFTERNOON...WHICH COULD PROVIDE SOME RELIEF TO THIS EXCESSIVE HEAT
ACROSS SOME LOCATIONS. SHORT RANGE AND HIGH RESOLUTION MODELS
INDICATE THAT SOME RESIDUAL DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WILL REMAIN IN PLACE
ACROSS THE REGION TODAY...WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES CONTINUING
TO AVERAGE AROUND 2 INCHES OVER MOST LOCATIONS. THE PRESENCE OF THIS
MOISTURE...A MINOR IMPULSE ROTATING SOUTHWARD AROUND THE EASTERN
PERIPHERY OF THE RIDGE AXIS...AND CONVERGENCE ALONG THE SURFACE
TROUGH/SEABREEZE BOUNDARIES WILL AID IN DEVELOPMENT OF ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE REGION TODAY...PARTICULARLY THIS
AFTERNOON. THE BEST CHANCE OF STORM DEVELOPMENT LOOKS TO BE ROUGHLY
OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE REGION AND HAVE BUMPED POPS UP TO
SCATTERED COVERAGE ACROSS THESE LOCATIONS. TEMPERATURES IN THE 90S
AND DEWPOINTS IN THE 70S WILL ONCE AGAIN RESULT IN A QUITE UNSTABLE
ENVIRONMENT ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON WITH MLCAPE VALUES
AVERAGING 2500-3500 J/KG...PERHAPS LOCALLY HIGHER. THE VERY MOIST
AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE SUPPORTIVE OF A FEW STRONG
TO LOCALLY SEVERE STORMS WITH A FEW DAMAGING WET MICROBURSTS
POSSIBLE. WILL HIGHLIGHT THE STORM POTENTIAL IN THE HWO AND MORNING
GRAPHICS. STORMS SHOULD QUICKLY DIMINISH EARLY THIS EVENING...WITH
DRY CONDITIONS ANTICIPATED OVERNIGHT. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL MOSTLY
RANGE IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S EXCEPT AROUND 80 NEAR THE IMMEDIATE
COAST. /21

THIS AFTERNOON'S WET MICROBURST RISK IS HIGH.

[MONDAY AND TUESDAY]...OPPRESSIVE HEAT PERSISTS THROUGH EARLY IN THE
WORK WEEK. THE POSITION OF THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL
CONTINUE TO ALLOW THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY TO SOAR EACH AFTERNOON. THE
RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO AMPLIFY ACROSS THE PLAINS WHILE AN UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH WILL DIG ACROSS THE NORTHEASTERN CONUS. A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE CWA LATE IN THE PERIOD...
PROVIDING BETTER COVERAGE OF STRONG STORMS TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL MARK THE END OF THE
OPPRESSIVE HEAT.

BEFORE THE FRONTAL PASSAGE...DAYTIME TEMPERATURES WILL SKYROCKET
INTO THE UPPER 90S AWAY FROM THE COAST AND COULD EASILY HIT 100
ACROSS SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI AND INTERIOR SOUTHWEST ALABAMA ON MONDAY.
WITH HIGHER COVERAGE OF STORMS ON TUESDAY...HIGHS WILL RISE INTO THE
UPPER 90S GENERALLY NORTHWEST OF THE I-65 CORRIDOR WITH MID 90S
SOUTHEAST OF THAT CORRIDOR. CONSEQUENTLY...THESE HOT TEMPERATURES
COMBINED WITH VERY HIGH HUMIDITY VALUES WILL LEAD TO HEAT INDICES
RANGING FROM 108-111 ON MONDAY AND 106-109 ON TUESDAY. FOR NOW...
MAINTAINING THE HEAT ADVISORY THRU MONDAY...BUT WILL NEED TO RE-
EVALUATE DEWPOINTS ON UPCOMING PACKAGE TO SEE IF AN ADVISORY IS
WARRANTED ON TUESDAY. UNFORTUNATELY...OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES WILL NOT
PROVIDE RELIEF FROM THE HEAT AS LOWS WILL RANGE FROM MID 70S INLAND
TO UPPER 70S/NEAR 80 ALONG THE COASTLINE. 07/MB

LONG TERM [WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY]...RELIEF FROM THE OPPRESSIVE
HEAT AND HUMIDITY IS ON ITS WAY AS A WEAK COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH
THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY. THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGE RETROGRADES AND
CENTERS ITSELF ACROSS THE SOUTHWESTERN CONUS THROUGH THE PERIOD...
ALLOWING THE CWA TO BE LESS UNDER ITS INFLUENCE. THE HEAT WILL SLOWLY
TREND DOWNWARD THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK WITH MID 90S BY
THE END OF THE WORK WEEK AND LOW 90S POSSIBLE OVER THE WEEKEND. HEAT
INDICES WILL LIKELY REMAINS ELEVATED THROUGH WEDNESDAY...STILL
REACHING 100-105...BEFORE THE DRIER AIR AND COOLER DEWPOINTS MAKE IT
ALL THE WAY THRU THE CWA ON THURSDAY. COVERAGE OF STORMS REMAINS
HIGHER ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN HALF OF THE CWA ON WEDNESDAY AS THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY SWINGS THROUGH THE AREA. IN THE WAKE OF THIS
BOUNDARY...RAIN CHANCES WILL BE SLIM ON THURSDAY WITH DRIER AIR IN
PLACE ACROSS THE REGION. TYPICAL SEA BREEZE CONVECTION ALONG THE
COAST SHOULD RETURN BY THE WEEKEND. 07/MB

AVIATION...
09.12Z TERMINAL FORECAST DISCUSSION...
SOME VERY BRIEF IFR CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE NEAR THE COAST EARLY
THIS MORNING...BUT VFR IS OTHERWISE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL OUTSIDE OF
CONVECTION TODAY. SCATTERED TSRA SHOULD DEVELOP MAINLY AFTER 17-18Z
WITH BEST COVERAGE OVER SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE REGION. THE
STRONGER STORMS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE CAPABLE OF STRONG WIND GUSTS IN
EXCESS OF 30 KNOTS AND REDUCED FLIGHT CATEGORIES IN AND NEAR STORMS
DUE TO LOWER CIGS AND HEAVY RAIN. /21

MARINE...A SURFACE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO EXTEND
ACROSS THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. OUTSIDE OF
LIGHT NORTHWEST TO WEST WINDS THIS MORNING...A LIGHT TO OCCASIONALLY
MODERATE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL PREVAIL THROUGH TUESDAY.
SOUTHWEST TO WEST FLOW SHOULD INCREASE LATE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY
AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING FRONTAL BOUNDARY. THIS BOUNDARY COULD BRING
AN OFFSHORE FLOW WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WITH LIGHTER WINDS RETURNING
THURSDAY. /21
