AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
202 PM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016

.AVIATION...

THERE IS ACTIVE CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS THE SOUTH FLORIDA
PENINSULA...MOST OF IT CURRENTLY ACROSS THE EASTERN PENINSULA AND
IN THE VICINITY OF TERMINALS KPBI...KOPF...KMIA AND KTMB. ALL
TERMINALS ASSIGNED VCTS AT 18Z. ANOTHER AREA OF ACTIVE CONVECTION
IS ACROSS THE EASTERN GULF WEST OF THE TAMPA BAY AREA AND IS
EXPECTED TO SPAWN NEW CONVECTION AS IT CONTINUES TO PROPAGATE
EASTWARD...AND COULD GENERATE THUNDERSTORMS FOR TERMINAL KAPF
AROUND 19-20Z. GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT THUNDERSTORMS COULD
CONTINUE THROUGH 00Z...BUT WITH OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES COULD LINGER
A COUPLE OF HOURS AFTER THAT. BRIEF PERIODS OF IFR CONDITIONS
POSSIBLE WITH OCCURRENCE HEAVY SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 930 AM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016/

UPDATE...
A SHORT WAVE OVER THE EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE
EASTWARD AND ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA THIS AFTERNOON BEFORE MOVING
INTO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC WATERS TONIGHT. THE 12Z MIA SOUNDING
THIS MORNING SHOW THAT THE 500 MB TEMPS WERE AROUND -11C AND THE
SHORT RANGE MODELS ARE SHOWING THE 500 MB TEMPS TO COOL DOWN TO
-12C TO -13C THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE AREA. AT THE SAME TIME...A 40
TO 50 KNOT MID LEVEL JET WILL BE MOVING THROUGH THE AREA WITH THE
SHORT WAVE. THE COMBINATION OF THE SHORT WAVE...MID LEVEL
JET...AND THE COOL AIR ALOFT WILL ALLOW FOR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP OVER SOUTH FLORIDA THIS
AFTERNOON. SOME OF THE STORMS COULD EVEN BECOME STRONG TO EVEN
SEVERE WITH THE PRIMARY IMPACTS BEING GUSTY WINDS UP TO 50
MPH...HAIL...FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES...AND LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL. SPC ALSO HAS SOUTH FLORIDA IN A MARGINAL SEVERE OUTLOOK
FOR THIS AFTERNOON. THEREFORE...WE WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION THE
POSSIBLE STRONG TO A FEW SEVERE STORMS IN THE HWO FOR TODAY ALONG
WITH KEEPING THE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS POPS IN THE FORECAST.

REST OF THE FORECAST LOOKS GOOD AT THIS TIME AND NO OTHER CHANGES
ARE PLANNED.

AVIATION...
THE WINDS WILL BE LIGHT OVER ALL OF SOUTH FLORIDA TAF SITES TODAY.
THERE COULD BE AN EAST AND WEST COAST SEA BREEZE DEVELOPING ALONG
THE COASTS THIS AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...THE SEA BREEZES WILL NOT MOVE
INLAND TO FAR THIS AFTERNOON. THEREFORE...THE TAF SITES WILL CARRY
A LIGHT AND VARIABLE WIND FLOW FOR TODAY.

VCTS WILL CONTINUE FOR ALL OF THE TAF SITES FOR THE AFTERNOON
HOURS TODAY...AS A SHORT WAVE WILL BE MOVING THROUGH THE AREA FROM
THE WEST WHICH WILL HELP TO GENERATE THUNDERSTORMS. SOME OF THE
STORMS COULD BECOME STRONG TO EVEN SEVERE WITH THE PRIMARY IMPACTS
BEING HAIL, GUSTY WINDS, FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES, AND HEAVY
RAINFALL. AT THIS TIME WILL WAIT ON PUTTING A TEMPO GROUP IN FOR
THE TAF SITES FOR THIS AFTERNOON UNTIL ACTIVITY GETS GOING ON THE
RADAR. THE CEILING AND VIS WILL ALSO REMAIN IN VFR CONDITIONS
OUTSIDE OF ANY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER...THE CEILING
AND VIS WILL FALL INTO THE IFR CONDITIONS WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE TAF SITES.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 404 AM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016/

.STRONG THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE AS DISTURBANCE PASSES OVER SOUTH
FLORIDA TODAY...
.MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER FOR SOUTH FLORIDA TODAY...

DISCUSSION...
AS THE WEAK SURFACE FRONTAL BOUNDARY NEARS SOUTH FLORIDA TODAY,
MOIST AIR TO THE SOUTH OF THE FRONT WILL COMBINE WITH MID AND
UPPER LEVEL ENERGY PASSING THROUGH TODAY TO CREATE HIGHER SHOWER
AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES COMPARED TO PREVIOUS DAYS. THE MAIN IMPULSE
PUSHING IN ALOFT FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO SHOULD ARRIVE AT THE WEST
COAST LATER THIS MORNING AND PUSH ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PENINSULA
RIGHT AS PEAK DIURNAL HEATING HAS PROVIDED PLENTY OF AVAILABLE
INSTABILITY FOR CONVECTION.

STEEP LAPSE RATE PROFILES OVER MUCH OF THE AREA, INCLUDING COLD
500 MB TEMPERATURES, WILL CREATE STRONG WIND AND HAIL CONCERNS FOR
TODAY WITH THESE STORMS. AT THE MOMENT, ANY RISK OF TORNADOES OR
SUPERCELLULAR BEHAVIOR SEEMS LESS LIKELY DUE TO LITTLE AVAILABLE
SHEAR. 0-1 KM HELICITY VALUES OVER SOUTH FLORIDA ARE WELL BELOW
100 M2/S2 TODAY. SPC DISCUSSES THE MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER
ACROSS THE REGION IN THEIR DAY 1 OUTLOOK /SWODY1/.

AS THE MAIN PART OF THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH PUSHES INTO THE BAHAMAS
TONIGHT, CONVECTION SHOULD SHIFT EAST INTO THE ATLANTIC. THE
STALLED SURFACE BOUNDARY COULD STILL ALLOW SOME SHOWERS BUT THE
THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DIMINISH AFTER MIDNIGHT FOR MUCH OF
THE REGION. WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY SERVE AS TRANSITION DAYS WITH
THE NEXT FRONTAL SYSTEM NEARING THE REGION LATE IN THE WEEK. THE
NEXT BOUNDARY COULD STALL OVER THE PENINSULA, CREATING THE
POTENTIAL FOR A RAINY WEEKEND. ANOTHER MID-LEVEL IMPULSE PUSHING
ACROSS THE GULF EARLY NEXT WEEK TO CLOSE OUT THE EXTENDED PERIOD
COULD BRING ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR RAINFALL.

OVERALL, A WARM AND WET TREND CONTINUES OVER SOUTH FLORIDA. WHILE
TEMPERATURES MAY FEEL MORE SUMMER-LIKE, THE NEXT FEW DAYS SHOULD
NOT GENERALLY FLIRT WITH RECORDS LIKE WE DID YESTERDAY. GUIDANCE
DOES HAVE SOME SUBTLE DIFFERENCES IN SOLUTIONS LATER IN THE
EXTENDED, BUT WE HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO MONITOR TRENDS. AT THE
MOMENT, HAVE CONTINUED TREND OF ADDING MENTION OF THUNDER TO THE
EXTENDED FORECAST AS MORE AVAILABLE INSTABILITY STAYS PRESENT OVER
THE REGION AS WE TRANSITION INTO SUMMER.

MARINE...
SCEC CONDITIONS COULD RETURN TO THE ATLANTIC WATERS BEHIND THE
FRONT FOR A BRIEF TIME AS GUSTY EASTERLIES FROM THE BAHAMAS
WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. OTHERWISE, THE LOCALIZED IMPACTS FROM
THUNDERSTORMS APPEAR TO BE THE PRIMARY MARINE CONCERN FOR THE NEXT
WEEK OR SO.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 155 AM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016/

AVIATION...FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS STALLED OVER CENTRAL
FLORIDA EARLY THIS MORNING LEAVING LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS
ACROSS THE REGION. UNCERTAINTY REMAINS IN HOW MUCH AN IMPACT FRONT
WILL HAVE ON WINDS DURING THE DAY AS IT SLIDES SOUTH AND RAPIDLY
WEAKENS. AT THE MOMENT, IT APPEARS FLOW WILL BE PREVAILING
EASTERLY IN THE MORNING WITH OVERALL SPEEDS 4-7KTS THOUGH EAST
COAST INLAND SITES MAY STAY MORE WSW DEPENDING ON STRENGTH OF
OVERNIGHT LAND BREEZE. BOTH SEA BREEZES DEVELOP 14-17Z WITH
ISOLATED SHRA. HAVE INCLUDED VCTS STARTING 17-19Z AS SEA BREEZES
MOVE INLAND AND FRONT SHIFTS SOUTHWARDS WITH SCT COVERAGE
EXPECTED. STEERING FLOW FAVORS EAST COAST FOR CONVECTION LATE IN
THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING, ENDING 01-03Z. 88/ALM

...SOME STRONG TO EVEN SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON...

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

THUNDERSTORMS: SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE STARTING LATE
THIS MORNING AND THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS SOUTH
FLORIDA. THE PRIMARY IMPACTS FROM ANY STORMS WILL BE FREQUENT
CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING STRIKES, AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL.
STRONGER STORMS THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING GUSTY
WINDS AND HAIL.

WIND: THE STRONGEST STORMS TODAY WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 50 MPH.

HAIL: HAIL IS POSSIBLE WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING.

FLOODING: SLOW MOVING STORMS WILL PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
AT TIMES THAT MAY LEAD TO STREET FLOODING IN URBAN AREAS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

A MOIST AND UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WILL REMAIN OVER SOUTH FLORIDA
BRINGING THE CONTINUING THREAT FOR ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS EACH
AFTERNOON THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.

INCREASING EAST-SOUTHEAST FLOW MID TO LATE WEEK WILL BRING LESS
THAN FAVORABLE BOATING CONDITIONS AND AN INCREASE IN RIP CURRENT
THREAT ALONG THE ATLANTIC COAST.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

WIDESPREAD SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED, HOWEVER
INDIVIDUAL SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REPORT HIGH WIND, HAIL AND
FLOODING TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECAST OFFICE IN
MIAMI.
