AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
535 AM CST WED DEC 23 2015

...SEVERE STORMS WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL POSSIBLE ACROSS THE
REGION TODAY AND TONIGHT...

.NEAR TERM /NOW THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...A DEEPLY MOIST SOUTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT PERSISTS ACROSS THE CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION EARLY THIS
MORNING BETWEEN A MID LEVEL TROUGH DEEPENING OVER THE ROCKY
MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT PLAINS STATES AND A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE
LOCATED OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. EARLY MORNING RADAR IMAGERY
SHOWED A LARGE AREA OF RAIN SPREADING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA AHEAD
OF A SHORTWAVE TROUGH LIFTING NORTHEASTWARD FROM THE VICINITY OF
SOUTHEASTERN LA THROUGH SOUTHWEST AL. A FEW HEAVIER SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WERE ALSO LOCATED FROM COASTAL PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST
MS AND SOUTHWEST AL THROUGH THE INTERIOR NW FL PANHANDLE AND
ADJACENT SOUTH CENTRAL AL WHERE SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY WAS
AVAILABLE...BUT SO FAR THE STRONGER CELLS HAVE REMAINED BELOW SEVERE
LIMITS AS THE BETTER INSTABILITY HAS REMAINED POSITIONED WELL
OFFSHORE.

THE MOIST SOUTHWEST FLOW PATTERN ALOFT WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE
REGION TODAY. NUMEROUS TO WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
PERSIST THROUGH THE EARLY TO MID MORNING HOURS...THOUGH THE PAST FEW
RUNS OF THE HRRR SHOW A DECREASE IN CONVECTIVE COVERAGE FROM SW TO
NE AFTER 9-10 AM AS THE INITIAL SHORTWAVE TROUGH TRANSLATES
NORTHEAST OF THE REGION. HOWEVER...A DIFLUENT MID LEVEL FLOW PATTERN
WILL BE IN PLACE ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA LATE THIS MORNING INTO THIS
AFTERNOON AS A NEGATIVELY TILTED SHORTWAVE TROUGH EJECTS FROM THE
CENTRAL PLAINS TO THE UPPER MIDWESTERN STATES AND GREAT LAKES REGION.
MOISTURE AND LIFT WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...AND WILL MAINTAIN A LIKELY CHANCE ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION
THROUGH THIS PERIOD. DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL BE STRONGER OVER
SOUTHEASTERN MS AND INTERIOR SOUTHWEST AL TODAY... WHERE 0-6 KM BULK
SHEAR VALUES WILL AVERAGE 40-45 KNOTS. INSTABILITY WILL ALSO BE ON
THE INCREASE TODAY AS SURFACE DEWPOINTS RANGE FROM THE UPPER 60S TO
AROUND 70 F ACROSS THE REGION. MLCAPE VALUES ARE PROGGED TO INCREASE
TO 500-1000 J/KG OVER EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWFA TO A MORE
IMPRESSIVE 1000-1500 J/KG ACROSS SOUTHEAST MS AND INTERIOR SOUTHWEST
AL. THE COMBINATION OF THE STRONG SHEAR...INCREASED INSTABILITY ALONG
WITH 0-1 KM SRH VALUES OF 200- 300 M2/S2 WILL BRING A SEVERE WEATHER
THREAT TO MUCH OF THE REGION TODAY...WITH THE BETTER POTENTIAL OVER
SOUTHEAST MS AND INTERIOR SW AL. A FEW TORNADOES...DAMAGING WINDS AND
LARGE HAIL WILL ALL BE POSSIBLE TODAY. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN COULD ALSO
RESULT IN LOCALIZED FLOODING. GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED
TODAY AHEAD OF THE DEEPENING STORM SYSTEM TO OUR W/NW. WHILE WIND
GUSTS COULD APPROACH ADVISORY THRESHOLDS NEAR THE COAST...THE
EXPECTED NATURE LOOKS BRIEF AND INFREQUENT ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE
ISSUANCE OF ADVISORY WITH THIS PACKAGE.

A SECONDARY SHORTWAVE MAY LIFT NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE REGION THIS
EVENING AND TONIGHT...WITH SOME OF THE GLOBAL GUIDANCE INDICATING
ANOTHER ROUND OF CONVECTION DEVELOPING MAINLY ALONG AND EAST OF I-65
AND NEAR THE COAST. A SEVERE THREAT MAY PERSIST AT LEAST INTO THE
EVENING GIVEN AMPLE DEEP LAYER SHEAR/INSTABILITY. WILL MAINTAIN
LIKELY POPS TONIGHT...AND KEEP MENTION OF SEVERE IN THROUGH AT
LEAST THE EVENING. /21

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...A SERIES OF SOUTHERN
STREAM SHORTWAVES MOVE ACROSS THE AREA ON THURSDAY THEN WEAKEN
THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY AS UPPER RIDGING BUILDS OVER THE EASTERN
STATES AND A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED LONGWAVE TROF EVOLVES OVER THE WESTERN
STATES. A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES EJECTED DOWNSTREAM FROM THE UPPER TROF
MOVE ACROSS THE PLAINS...AND INTERACT WITH AN OLD REMNANT FRONTAL
BOUNDARY LOCATED FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO NEAR THE OHIO RIVER
VALLEY...POSSIBLY FORMING SEVERAL SURFACE WAVES MOVING ALONG THE
BOUNDARY THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY. WHILE THE BULK OF GUIDANCE SHOWS
THAT THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE LOCATED GENERALLY WELL TO THE NORTH
OF THE AREA THROUGH THE PERIOD...THE GFS SHOWS THAT THE BOUNDARY MAY
SHIFT TO OVER THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY THURSDAY
NIGHT...CLOSE TO THE NORTHWESTERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA...BEFORE
PUSHING FURTHER TO THE NORTH. HAVE CONTINUED WITH LIKELY POPS ON
THURSDAY WITH CHANCE POPS FOR MUCH OF THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT WITH
THE HIGHEST POPS OVER THE INTERIOR NORTHWEST PORTION OF THE AREA.
POPS THEN TAPER OFF TO SLIGHT CHANCE FOR MUCH OF THE AREA FOR
FRIDAY...WITH SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOLLOWING THROUGH SATURDAY. SURFACE
BASED CAPES INCREASE TO 1500-2000 J/KG CHRISTMAS EVE BUT 0-1 KM
HELICITY VALUES SHOULD REMAIN AT 100 M2/S2 SUGGESTING SOME STRONG
STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE BUT THE SEVERE STORM POTENTIAL LOOKS LOW AT
THIS TIME.  HIGHS WILL BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S ON CHRISTMAS
EVE...WITH EVEN WARMER HIGHS FOR CHRISTMAS RANGING FROM THE MID 70S
NEAR THE COAST TO AROUND 80 INLAND. HIGHS ON CHRISTMAS EVE WILL BE
ABOUT 2 DEGREES BELOW THE RECORD HIGHS AT MOBILE AND PENSACOLA...AND
MAY TIE OR BREAK THE RECORD OF 77 AT MOBILE ON CHRISTMAS. LOWS WILL
BE RATHER MILD AND IN THE MID 60S CHRISTMAS EVE NIGHT AND CHRISTMAS
NIGHT. /29

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...THE HIGHLY AMPLIFIED LONGWAVE
TROF OVER THE WESTERN STATES EVOLVES INTO A CUT OFF LOW OVER THE
EXTREME SOUTHWEST STATES ON SATURDAY...WHICH PROGRESSES SLOWLY ACROSS
THE SOUTH CENTRAL STATES THROUGH MONDAY USING THE PREDOMINATE
SOLUTIONS OF THE ECMWF/CMC/NAEFS/UKMET...THEN IS EXPECTED TO LIFT OFF
TOWARDS THE GREAT LAKES REGION THROUGH TUESDAY. AN ASSOCIATED SURFACE
LOW PASSES NORTH OF THE AREA LATE IN THE PERIOD AND IS EXPECTED TO
BRING A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AREA LATE MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY.
WILL HAVE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS ON SATURDAY INCREASE TO CHANCE TO GOOD
CHANCE POPS FOR MUCH OF THE AREA FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT AHEAD OF
THE FRONT...THEN CHANCE POPS FOLLOW FOR MOST OF THE AREA TUESDAY.
HIGHS ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY WILL BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S...THEN
TRENDING COOLER BY TUESDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 60S. LOWS SATURDAY NIGHT
AND SUNDAY NIGHT WILL BE IN THE MID 60S...THEN TRENDING COOLER TO THE
50S FOR TUESDAY NIGHT IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT. /29

.MARINE...SOUTHERLY WINDS INCREASE TODAY THEN SUBSIDES TONIGHT
INTO THURSDAY AS A STORM SYSTEM MOVES ACROSS OUR REGION. WINDS AND
SEAS WILL BE HIGHER NEAR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS STORMS. AREAS OF
DENSE FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH LATE WEEK PARTICULARLY IN BAYS AND
COASTAL WATERS DURING THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. A LIGHT TO
MODERATE SOUTHERLY FLOW FOLLOWS FOR FRIDAY THEN GRADUALLY INCREASES
THROUGH SUNDAY AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE WEST.
