Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tallahassee FL
756 PM EDT WED AUG 3 2016

.AVIATION [Through 00Z Friday]...

Storms currently in the vicinity of DHN, ECP, TLH, and VLD should
clear out by 02Z. Overnight, VFR conditions prevail at all
terminals. However, around 10Z - 14Z, DHN and VLD may experience
MVFR conditions due to patchy fog. DHN may experience lower
conditions but confidence is not high to put them at IFR at this
time. Convection is likely to start at ECP, TLH, and ABY around 16Z
and move northward throughout the day affecting all terminals.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION [256 PM EDT]...

.NEAR TERM [Through Tonight]...

Showers and thunderstorms have been slow to develop across our
area today, with northwesterly flow keeping the sea breeze and
highest moisture offshore and near the coast of the Florida Big
Bend. However, coverage of showers and storms is gradually
increasing this afternoon, and will still keep likely PoPs through
the early evening in our Florida and southern Georgia counties.
Moisture and instability both remain high, with PWAT values over
2" and SBCAPE ranging from 2000 to 3500 J/kg across much of our
area. Although coverage of showers and storms should diminish
after sunset, some scattered convection could persist across parts
of our area through the night. This is especially true across our
northeastern counties, with a weak front expected to sag southward
through Georgia overnight. Expect overnight lows to dip to the mid
70s overnight, with upper 70s along the coast.

.SHORT TERM [Thursday Through Friday Night]...

Throughout the remainder of the work week, the local region will
remain situated between a ridge positioned over the southern
plains and a weak trough persisting along the eastern seaboard at
the mid/upper levels. On Thursday, a weak surface low is expected
to drop southwestward into southern Georgia before lifting to the
northeast on Friday. Due to these features, deep layer moisture
will remain in place across the region, with PWATs over 2" during
peak heating periods. The main steering flow will be light and
from the west to northwest. PoPs will be above climatology, at
60-70% in the afternoons. Because of the high PWATs, high PoPs,
and slow storm motion, locally heavy rainfall amounts can be
expected. Temperatures will be near seasonal levels, with high
temperatures in the lower 90s inland and upper 80s along the
coast, and low temperatures in the lower and mid 70s.

.LONG TERM [Saturday Through Wednesday]...

A weakness between upper level ridges will continue across the
local area through this period with an upper low actually closing
off early next week and drifting west across the eastern Gulf of
Mexico. The seasonal lee-side trough north of the area will settle
southward with a wave of low pressure forming over in response to
the upper low. This low may drift all the way to the GOMEX by the
end of the period. All of this points to a continuation of the
unsettled pattern we have been in with PoPs generally above climo
and min temps a few degrees above normal. Daytime max temps will
be about normal in the lower 90s.

.MARINE...

A ridge of high pressure will continue to extend across the Gulf of
Mexico for the next several days. This will maintain a prolonged
period of generally southwesterly onshore winds around 10 knots or
less across the marine area. Of course, winds and seas will be
higher in mainly morning and overnight showers thunderstorms.

.FIRE WEATHER...

There are no fire weather concerns over the next several days as
normal to above normal precipitation chances are expected and ERC
indices are low.

.HYDROLOGY...

Average to above average rainfall chances are in the offering for
the next 5 days. Average rainfall amounts will be on the order of
2-3 inches during this time. Locally higher amounts are possible
with localized areas of ponding or nuisance flooding in those
areas that receive daily repetitive heavy rain occurrences.
Widespread flooding is not anticipated at this time and rivers
continue to run well below flood stage.
