...PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION TORNADO WATCH NORTH AND WEST
OF ALMA THROUGH 8 PM...
...MODERATE TO HIGH RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR INLAND
SOUTHEAST GEORGIA...
...SEVERE WEATHER THREAT CONTINUES OVERNIGHT FOR NORTHEAST AND
NORTH CENTRAL FLORIDA...

.CURRENTLY...
Late afternoon surface analysis depicts strong low pressure (997
millibars) progressing northeastward from the mid-Mississippi
Valley into the western Ohio Valley. A strong cold front extends
southward from this low through the Tennessee Valley and the
southeastern states, and this front is approaching the western
Florida panhandle. Aloft...an intense shortwave trough is
progressing across the mid and upper Mississippi Valley, and this
trough is taking on a more neutral to negative tilt as it digs
southeastward through the lower Mississippi Valley. This deepening
trough is inducing the development of a low level southwesterly
jet around 925 millibars (2500 feet), as evidenced by the special
18Z sounding at Tallahassee, which measured south-southwesterly
winds around 35 mph at 925 millibars, with steadily increasing
speeds to near 50 knots around 500 millibars (19,000 feet).

Increasing divergence aloft and significant warm air advection is
fostering the development of widely scattered thunderstorms over
inland southeast Georgia, with some isolated activity developing
in a hot and increasingly unstable air mass over north central
Florida. The 18Z special sounding at Jacksonville displayed a
significant capping inversion based around 850 millibars (5000
feet), which has limited convective development and coverage over
much of our region, while much more activity is currently
impacting central GA and the FL panhandle, where there is no low
level inversion. Our local pressure gradient continues to tighten
over our region, with south-southwesterly winds generally in the
15-25 mph range, which is orienting cumulus cloud streets in a
southwest to northeast fashion. High altitude convective debris
clouds cover our far northern counties, where temperatures are
around 80 degrees. Temperatures elsewhere have skyrocketed to near
90 degrees, except along the immediate beaches, where a pinned
seabreeze boundary was keeping the beaches in the upper 70s,
compliments of cool shelf waters.

.NEAR TERM (This Afternoon through Thursday)...
The potent trough centered over the upper Mississippi Valley will
continue to dig into the southeastern states and will become
negatively tilted overnight, which will sweep a strong cold front
through our region during the predawn and early morning hours.
Much of the stronger forcing will remain situated over the FL
panhandle and points just west of the Altamaha/Ocmulgee River
junction through sunset, with the capping inversion likely keeping
activity developing over coastal northeast FL below severe limits.
Clusters of thunderstorms currently over the Florida panhandle
will continue moving rapidly northeastward and will impact inland
southeast Georgia and perhaps the far western Suwannee Counties
towards or shortly after sunset. The Storm Prediction Center has
placed locations north and west of Alma within a High Risk of
severe thunderstorm development during the evening hours.
Impressive speed shear and increasing instability will result in a
significant damaging wind threat, with model soundings depicting
southwesterly winds strengthening to 70-85 knots in the hail
growth zone by late evening across inland southeast Georgia and
the western Suwannee Valley, which will introduce the threat for
large hail as the capping inversion erodes. This type of
environment may also be favorable for strong, long-track tornadoes
tonight in southeast Georgia.

High resolution short term guidance indicates that activity will
impact inland southeast Georgia and the Suwannee Valley throughout
the evening hours, with better forcing aloft associated with a jet
streak at the base of the negatively tilted trough arriving
towards midnight. Some locally heavy rainfall is possible over
these inland areas as activity backbuilds due to the arrival of a
strengthening low level jet. This evolution of the pattern will
eventually organize scattered and backbuilding convective
clusters over southeast Georgia and the Suwannee Valley into a
broken squall line that will race eastward during the overnight
and predawn hours, moving offshore of the Atlantic coastal
counties towards sunrise. The Storm Prediction Center has placed
most of northeast Florida and coastal southeast Georgia in an
Enhanced risk for severe thunderstorm development overnight, with
a Slight Risk for locations from Gainesville and St. Augustine
south and eastward. Winds will shift to westerly and will remain
breezy in the wake of the front, with some weak cold air advection
dropping lows into the mid/upper 50s for inland southeast Georgia
and the Suwannee Valley. The front won't clear eastern sections
until just before sunrise, where lows will remain in the 60s.

A deep trough will prevail over the eastern U.S. for the remainder
of this week, with strengthening surface low pressure moving
slowly northeastward across the western Great Lakes states. This
weather pattern will keep a tight pressure gradient in place
locally, resulting in windy conditions on Thursday area-wide.
Skies will quickly clear during the morning hours, with west winds
sustained at 20-30 mph with frequent gusts to near 40 mph. Cold
air advection is going to initially remain relatively weak in the
wake of the cold front, with offshore winds resulting in highs in
the 70-75 range.

.SHORT TERM (Thursday night through Saturday night)...

The main weather feature for the short term will be the much
cooler temperatures and dry northwesterly flow brings quieter
weather. The base of a large upper level low will push south into
our area on Friday. Cold air advection will strengthen in the low
levels on Thursday night, with lows falling into the mid 40s
inland, ranging to near 50 at the coast. Breezy northwesterly
winds will continue on Thursday night and Friday. High
temperatures on Friday and Saturday will likely be in the upper
60s to low 70s - a big change from the upper 80s and low 90s of
today! Overnight lows will be in the low to mid 40s across the
area on Saturday and Sunday mornings as well.

.LONG TERM (Sunday through Wednesday)...

By Sunday a surface high will start building across the mid-
Atlantic. A shortwave trough will dive southward across the
eastern coast of FL. This will likely do little more than increase
clouds on Sunday since the previous front will have scoured most
of moisture away. Onshore flow will continue to increase through
the beginning of the workweek and bring back a chance of isolated
showers only to the coast as an upper level ridge will remain over
the Gulf of Mexico.

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions will prevail through around 00Z at the regional
terminals. South-southwesterly winds will continue to strengthen
this afternoon, with sustained winds of 15-20 knots and occasional
gusts to 30 knots. Winds will slowly shift to a southwesterly
direction overnight, with sustained surface speeds remaining in
the 10-20 knot range outside of thunderstorm activity. Occasional
MVFR ceilings of 2000-3000 feet will likely develop at the
terminals shortly after 00Z. Thunderstorm coverage will increase
this afternoon and evening, with impacts possible at SGJ and SSI
during between 22Z-01Z. Activity will continue to increase during
the evening and overnight hours, with strong to severe
thunderstorms sweeping eastward across the terminals during the
overnight hours. Impacts are possible at SSI and GNV as early as
03Z, with tempo/PROB30 groups inserted in the TAFs for
southwesterly wind gusts up to 45 knots and IFR visibility
reductions in heavy rainfall. Activity will likely impact the
Duval County terminals and SGJ in the 07Z-11Z time frame. Strong
westerly surface winds will develop around sunrise, with speeds of
15-25 knots expected. VFR conditions should prevail towards 12Z at
the regional terminals.

&&

.MARINE...
South-southeast winds are increasing to caution levels, and will
gradually shift to a south-southwesterly direction after sunset.
Wind speeds will continue to strengthen this evening, reaching
Small Craft Advisory levels in the offshore waters during the
mid-evening hours. SCA level wind speeds will be reached in the
near shore waters towards midnight. A strong cold front will push
a squall line across the waters during the predawn and early
morning hours on Thursday. Severe thunderstorms within the squall
line will be capable of producing damaging winds, excessive
lightning, and heavy downpours. Winds will veer to the west
behind the cold front, with speeds increasing into the 25 to 30
knot range with gusts to gale force expected through Thursday. A
prolonged period of SCA conditions will then continue through the
end of the week as unseasonably colder air moves across the warmer
ocean waters. No headlines will be needed for the upcoming
weekend as high pressure builds in from the west, allowing for
winds and seas to drop to caution levels in the offshore waters
Friday night before falling below caution levels on Saturday
morning.

Rip Currents: Low risk expected as winds become offshore tonight,
with strong offshore winds persisting through Friday. A low risk
will likely continue through the upcoming weekend.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
South-southwesterly surface and transport winds will continue to
run in the 15-25 mph range through tonight. High dispersion values
will continue through sunset area-wide. A squall line of strong
to severe thunderstorms is expected to traverse our area from this
evening through the overnight , bringing another round of
numerous lightning strikes and beneficial rainfall. A much drier
air mass will plunge into our region behind the front on Thursday.
Relative humidity values will fall to near critical thresholds on
Thursday afternoon, with strong westerly surface and transport
wind speeds. However, recent and upcoming rainfall should
significantly increase fuel moisture levels, and Red Flag
conditions are not likely later this week despite low humidity
values and strong westerly winds on Thursday and Friday.

&&

.CLIMATE...
Jacksonville has reached 91 degrees, breaking their daily record
high for April 5th, which was set on this date in 1880 (prior
record was 89). Gainesville has tied their daily record of 90
degrees, set on this date back in 1999.
