Area forecast discussion, Apr 28, 7:14 AM CDT, 47 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
714 AM CDT THU APR 28 2016

.DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR LATEST AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW.

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z ISSUANCE...CEILINGS WILL LOWER THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS AS
A CLUSTER OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER SOUTHEAST
MISSISSIPPI MOVES EASTWARD ALONG THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION.
THESE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO IMPACT THE MOBILE METRO AREA BETWEEN
13Z AND 15Z WITH IFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES...ALONG WITH FREQUENT
LIGHTNING. BRIEF PERIODS OF VERY HEAVY RAINFALL CLOUD RESULT IN
VISIBILITIES IN THE VLIFR CATEGORY IN THAT TIME FRAME. SURFACE WINDS
ARE DIFFICULT TO FORECAST AS NUMEROUS OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES ARE EXPECTED
TO IMPACT THE AREA...BUT SOUTH WINDS OF 10 TO 15 KNOTS WILL PREVAIL
PRIOR TO THE STORMS AND BECOME VARIABLE AS HIGH AS 30 KNOTS AT TIMES.
THIS CLUSTER OF STORMS ARE THEN EXPECTED TO IMPACT THE PENSACOLA
METRO AREA...MAINLY BETWEEN 16Z AND 18Z. SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL THEN OCCUR THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS
BUT NOT BE AS STRONG...WITH MVFR CEILINGS AND VFR TO BRIEF MVFR
VISIBILITIES. /22

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 434 AM CDT THU APR 28 2016/

NEAR TERM /NOW THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...SEVERAL UPPER LEVEL
IMPULSES PASSING OVER THE NORTHERN EDGE THE GULF OF MEXICO UPPER
LEVEL RIDGE WILL TRIGGER NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TODAY
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO TAPER OFF
THIS EVENING AS THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDS NORTHWARD ACROSS THE
SOUTHEAST STATES. MEANWHILE A SURFACE RIDGE EXTENDING FROM THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC INTO THE EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO WILL WEAKEN AS A
WEAKENING SURFACE LOW OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST MOVES QUICKLY EASTWARD.

THE BEST CHANCE OF HEAVY RAIN TODAY WILL OCCUR FROM SUNRISE THROUGH
THE EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS. THE STRONGEST THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
PROLIFIC RAIN RATE PRODUCERS...CAPABLE OF HOURLY RAINFALL RATES OF
TWO TO FIVE INCHES. WHILE WIDESPREAD RAINFALL TOTALS WILL GENERALLY
BE FROM ONE-HALF TO ONE INCH...LOCALIZED AREAS AFFECTED BY SEVERAL
OF THESE PASSING THUNDERSTORMS COULD RECEIVE RAINFALL TOTALS OF TWO
TO FOUR INCHES RESULTING MAINLY IN NUISANCE FLOODING...ALTHOUGH AN
ISOLATED INCIDENCE OF FLASH FLOODING WILL DEFINITELY BE POSSIBLE.
GUSTY THUNDERSTORM SURFACE WINDS UP TO 40 MPH WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE.

HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY SHOULD REACH THE LOWER 80S...WITH UPPER 70S
ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST. LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WILL RANGE FROM
65 TO 69 DEGREES INLAND AREAS...WITH LOWER 70S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE
COAST. /22

SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...LONGWAVE UPPER LEVEL
TROF AXIS OVER THE FOUR CORNERS OF THE DESERT SOUTHWEST FRIDAY
MORNING TAKES ON A NEGATIVE TILT WHILE PIVOTING NORTHEAST ACROSS THE
CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS ON SATURDAY. THIS CAUSES A NET AMPLIFICATION OF A
DOWNSTREAM HIGH LEVEL RIDGE AXIS ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST BY SATURDAY. IN
THE LOWER LEVELS...LOOK TO REMAIN IN A LIGHT SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH FLOW
BETWEEN A WEAK PRESSURE RIDGE TO THE EAST AND LOWER PRESSURES OVER
THE PLAINS. WEAK SURFACE FRONT EXTENDS EASTWARD FROM NORTHERN LOUISIANA
TO CENTRAL GEORGIA ON FRIDAY. SOUTH OF THIS BOUNDARY...A NARROW
STRIP OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE (PWATS 1.3 TO 1.5 INCHES) IS ALIGNED
OVER THE CENTRAL GULF COAST ON FRIDAY WHICH PROGRESSES NORTHWARD
THROUGH THE COURSE OF THE DAY. THE PASSAGE OF MID LEVEL IMPULSES
EMBEDDED IN THE EVOLVING HIGH LEVEL SOUTHWEST FLOW INTERACTS WITH
THIS MOISTURE AND AS THE AIRMASS DESTABILIZES THROUGH THE COURSE OF
THE DAY WHILE FLOW OFF THE GULF ASCENDS TO THE SOUTH OF THE FRONTAL
ZONE...CONVECTIVE INITIATION REDEVELOPS FRIDAY. RAIN CHANCES DECREASE
THROUGH THE NIGHT FRIDAY NIGHT WITH LOSS OF INSTABILITY. SHORT RANGE
ENSEMBLES INDICATE A GRADUAL INCREASE IN FOG PROBABILITIES LATE
FRIDAY NIGHT...SO WILL MAKE A MENTION OF THIS IN THE MORNING PACKAGE.
FOR SATURDAY...WITH THE HIGH LEVEL RIDGE POSITIONED OVER THE EASTERN
US...THE CENTRAL GULF COAST SEES MORE OF A HIGH LEVEL DIFFLUENT
SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT ATOP THE AREA. WITH UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK
DYNAMICS EXPANDING EAST NORTHEAST OUT OF TEXAS...AVAILABILITY OF DEEP
MOISTURE AND DECREASING STABILITY...A SLIGHT CHANCE OF MAINLY
AFTERNOON STORMS IS IN THE FORECAST OVER THE NORTHWEST HALF OF THE
FORECAST AREA. THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR STRONG STORMS AT TIMES
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING FREQUENT LIGHTNING...BRIEF STRONG WIND GUSTS AND
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS. AS FAR AS SEVERE WEATHER BOTH FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY...WEAK WIND PROFILES AND 0-3 KM BULK SHEAR MAGNITUDES LESS
THAN 20 KNOTS WILL KEEP THE THREAT VERY ISOLATED. HIGHS FORECAST IN
THE MID TO UPPER 80S NORTH OF THE COAST WITH LOWER 80S AT THE
BEACHES. OVERNIGHT LOWS MID TO UPPER 60S INTERIOR TO LOWER 70S COAST.
/10

LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...AN ACTIVE HIGH LEVEL WESTERLY
FLOW KEEPS THE WEATHER PATTERN UNSETTLED FROM TIME TO TIME SUNDAY
THROUGH TUESDAY. ANOTHER FEATURE THAT COMPLICATES THE RAINFALL
FORECAST IN THE OUTLOOK IS A SLOWLY APPROACHING FRONTAL BOUNDARY
WHICH BEGINS TO HANG UP ACROSS THE COAST BY TUESDAY. THE LATEST
FORECAST CALLS FOR THE FRONT TO PUSH SOUTH OF THE AREA BY
WEDNESDAY...WHICH WILL BEGIN TO REDUCE THE RAIN CHANCES. LITTLE
CHANGE IN HIGHS AND LOWS THROUGH MONDAY. HIGHS TRENDING A FEW DEGREES
BELOW CLIMATOLOGY BY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY INTO THE MID/UPPER 70S.
OVERNIGHT LOWS COULD DIP DOWN INTO THE UPPER HALF OF THE 50S OVER THE
INTERIOR BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. /10

MARINE...A SURFACE RIDGE EXTENDING FROM THE WESTERN ATLANTIC ACROSS
THE EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO WILL REMAIN LARGELY INTACT AS A PAIR OF
SURFACE LOW PRESSURE AREAS PASS WELL NORTH OF THE AREA. A LIGHT TO
OCCASIONAL MODERATE ONSHORE WIND FLOW WILL PERSIST THROUGH MONDAY.
