Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Miami FL
1010 PM EST Sun Jan 22 2017

.UPDATE...

A tornado watch has been issued for all of South Florida until 6am
EST.

As of 10 pm, regional radars show a squall line associated with
the advancing front extending from Melbourne to Venice and
continuing into the Gulf of Mexico. Ahead of the line, isolated
cells have been developing over the eastern Gulf of Mexico west of
Naples within a 50+ knot low-level jet axis. These storms may
pose a risk for isolated tornadoes and locally damaging winds as
they approach the Gulf Coast and encounter impressive low-level
hodographs (0-1km SREH 300-350 m2/s2 per SPC mesoanalysis).

Mitigating factors for tornadoes will include veering low-level
winds with a more unidirectional shear profile developing over
time. In addition, water vapor imagery and satellite-derived
precipitable water indicate the instability within the pre-frontal
plume is relatively modest with MLCAPE estimated to be generally
below 1500 J/kg. Still, residents and visitors to South Florida
should make sure to have a way to receive severe weather warnings
overnight, such as NOAA Weather Radio, and be prepared to take
action if warnings are issued.

We are preparing to launch a 04Z supplemental sounding to better
characterize the evolving threat over south Florida.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 712 PM EST Sun Jan 22 2017/

AVIATION...
Along the east coast TAF sites, breezy southwest winds 12-17 KT
with occasional higher gusts will continue through this evening
into Monday morning. As a strong cold front approaches late
tonight, a squall line containing TSRA+, small hail, and possibly
a tor or two will push down the peninsula. Current thinking
regarding the squall line timing...KPBI 23/05-08Z, KFXE KFLL
23/06-09Z, KOPF KMIA KTMB and 23/07-10Z. Have covered this with a
TEMPO group highlighting strong VRB winds. Aft 23/1200Z, behind
the front, breezy winds should turn westerly with precip chances
dwindling.

Timing for the squall line along the Gulf, affecting
KAPF...23/0200-0600Z. Have covered this with a tempo,
highlighting VRB gusty winds and heavy rain. Aft 23/0900Z, winds
should switch to the west.

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 430 PM EST Sun Jan 22 2017/

DISCUSSION...

TONIGHT...
A very strong mid to upper level trough along with a
surface low over the Southern Gulf Coast States will move eastward
through the Southeastern United States tonight into Monday
morning before moving northeast into the Mid Atlantic States on
Tuesday. This will allow for a strong cold front to work from the
eastern Gulf waters through South Florida late tonight.

The winds ahead of the front will be breezy to windy from the
southwest tonight. Wind gusts will continue to be around 35 mph
over most of South Florida through early this evening, before
decreasing some for tonight. The only exception to this is along
the coastal areas of South Florida where they should remain around
35 mph. Therefore, the Wind Advisory will be extended until early
Monday morning for the coastal areas and will be allow to expire
over rest of South Florida early this evening.

The atmosphere continues to moisten in the low levels, but a cap
around 700 mbs early this afternoon has not allowed for any
showers or thunderstorms to develop. However, the cap will break
down this evening as the strong cold front approaches South
Florida from the Gulf of Mexico. Therefore, the pops will continue
to remain in the categorical range for tonight over South
Florida.

There is also a mid level jet of around 100 knots along with a low
level jet of 40 to 50 knots that will be working into South
Florida tonight allowing for the helicities to increase into the
100 to 200 range. The mid levels of the atmosphere will also be
cooling down into the -10 to -12C late tonight, as the very strong
trough moves through the area. This will lead to the possibility
of strong to severe storms over South Florida tonight ahead of the
cold front.

MONDAY...
There could still be some showers and even a few thunderstorms
ongoing over South Florida Monday morning as the front clears the
area. However, the threat of severe weather will be done, as the
mid to upper level and low level jets will be east of the area.
Therefore, pops will be on an downward trend on Monday from west
to east across South Florida.

TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
High pressure will build into South Florida for Tuesday and
Wednesday from the west before moving east into the Atlantic
waters for late this week. This will allow for dry weather to work
into the area during this time over South Florida.

Another cold front will then move southward through South Florida
late this week from the north. This will allow for a few showers
to develop over the Atlantic waters during this time. Rest of
South Florida should remain dry.

EXTENDED FORECAST...
The front should stall out over the northern Florida keys this weekend,
as an mid to upper level disturbance moves east from the Gulf
waters across South Florida Saturday night into Sunday. This will
allow for some showers and even a few thunderstorms to affect
South Florida late this weekend. Therefore, a chance of pops have
been ahead for South Florida for Saturday night into Sunday.

MARINE...
The winds will be southwesterly tonight before going westerly on
Monday. The wind speeds will be around 25 to 30 knots with gusts
into the Gale Force conditions for tonight into Monday. Therefore,
the Gale Warning has been expanded to Lake Okeechobee and Biscayne
Bay waters through Monday morning. Rest of South Florida waters
remain in the Gale Warning through Monday evening.

The seas will also be running 8 to 10 feet in the Atlantic Waters
and building to 6 to 8 feet near-shore Gulf waters to 12 to 17
feet offshore Gulf Waters late tonight into Monday. Therefore,
mariners are advise to remain in port through Monday.

BEACH FORECAST...
High Risk of Rip Currents will also continue for the gulf coast
beaches of South Florida through Tuesday evening. The east coast
beaches of South Florida will also continue to see an enhancement
in the threat of rip currents through Tuesday.

FIRE WEATHER...
The relative humidity will also fall into the lower to mid 30s
over most of South Florida for Tuesday into Wednesday, as much
drier air will work into the area from the north. However, the
ERC's should remain below 35 during this time. Therefore, at this
time it looks like there is no fire threat for South Florida.
