What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Mobile, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 3, 7:24 PM CDT, 2 hours 14 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 3, 7:24 PM CDT, 2 hours 14 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Mobile AL
724 PM CDT Mon Apr 3 2017
.DISCUSSION...See updated information for land areas below.
&&
.UPDATE...Showers and thunderstorms have moved east of the
forecast area, and we have removed the lingering slight chance of
convection from the forecast over the eastern zones. Saturated
grounds from earlier heavy rainfall today will make conditions
prime for patchy fog development over much of the region late
tonight through early Tuesday morning, and we have added patchy
fog to the forecast. We may have to monitor for localized dense
fog development over some locations late. Minor adjustments to
temps, dewpoints and winds were also made based on the latest
trends. /21
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 628 PM CDT Mon Apr 3 2017/
DISCUSSION...Updated for latest aviation discussion below.
AVIATION...
00Z issuance...TSRA have moved east of the region early this
evening, with some lingering IFR to low end MVFR cigs still noted
over portions of the northwest FL Panhandle and adjacent south
central AL at the start of this period, with VFR prevalent
elsewhere. Primary aviation impact will be the potential of MVFR
fog development late tonight into early Tuesday morning, with
visibility locally reduced to IFR to localized LIFR levels.
We have introduced fog into the local TAFs late. /21
PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 355 PM CDT Mon Apr 3 2017/
NEAR TERM /Now Through Tuesday/...Vigorous mid to upper trof that
help bring the severe weather to much of the north central gulf
coast region earlier today will continue to shift quickly east
dampening through tonight then moving off the Atlantic seaboard by
early Tue morning. This pattern is followed by weak ridging aloft
over the north central gulf states and se conus through mid to
late Tue afternoon followed by another vigorous mid to upper trof
approaching from the west by late Tue evening. For tonight skies
will continue to clear from west to east with a light west to
northwest wind flow developing near the surface late this evening
then shifting mostly north by 12z Tue. For Wed expect more sun
than clouds for most of the day followed by increasing clouds near
the coast and offshore late Tue afternoon into Tue evening.
Surface winds will build from the south by afternoon and continue
into the evening hours as the next system approaches from the
west.
Temps tonight will continue to be 5 to 7 degrees above average,
ranging from the mid 50s for most inland areas generally north of
the I-10 corridor and the lower to middle 60s further south to the
coast. Highs on Tue will continue to be well above average for
this time of the year, ranging from the mid 80s for most inland
areas and the upper 70s to lower 80s near the immediate coast.
32/ee
SHORT TERM /Tuesday night Through Thursday night/...Confidence is
building in another low pressure trough ejecting across the southern
Great Plains and into the lower Mississippi River Valley Tuesday
night into Wednesday. Ahead of this trough Tuesday night, ample
onshore flow will push a warm front north across the local area,
leading to an influx of moisture into the region, and thus an
increase in shower and thunderstorm activity. Current guidance
suggests an initial (potentially severe) squall line passing through
the area late Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning, followed
by the warm front pushing north and subsequent destabilization and
convective initiation occurring once again Wednesday afternoon and
evening. With models falling into better agreement regarding
impressive MLCAPE values over 2500 J/kg, mid-level lapse rates
approaching 8.0C, and deep-layer shear around 50 knots, current
expectations are that all modes of severe weather will be possible
(large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes). For more info and
updates regarding the severe weather potential Tuesday night into
Wednesday, please visit our webpage at http://www.weather.gov/mob.
The low pressure trough lifts northeast into the Great Lakes region
Wednesday night, with an attendant cold front pushing through the
local area from the west. Sunny skies and cooler, drier conditions
then settle in Thursday as high pressure builds into the region.
With increasing onshore flow and boundary layer moisture, expect
temperatures Tuesday night to remain mild, with lows in the mid to
upper 60's expected areawide. Highs Wednesday morning should reach
the upper 70's to low 80's, before much cooler temps (low to mid
50's) move into the area in the wake of the cold front Wednesday
night. Temps then remain cool Thursday and Thursday night, getting
to around 70 and dipping into the mid 40's, respectively. /49
LONG TERM /Friday through Monday/...Pleasant temperatures and
humidities settle in Friday and Saturday as high pressure builds
across the area in the wake of Thursday morning's cold front. Expect
clearing skies and dry weather, with highs in the upper 60's to low
70's each afternoon and lows in the low to mid 40's Friday night.
Onshore flow redevelops late this weekend into early next week as
the surface high pressure pushes east over the western Atlantic.
With the return of onshore flow comes an increase in shower and
thunderstorm chances and a warming trend in temperatures. Highs
Sunday and Monday will reach the upper 70's to low 80's. Low temps
Saturday and Sunday nights only expected to get down into the low to
mid 50's. /49
MARINE...Showers and thunderstorms mostly well south of Pensacola
and Navarre this afternoon stretching ne to just south of Destin
will continue to shift east and south of the marine area through
this evening then well offshore late tonight and early Tue. This
area of deeper moisture and instability returns back to the north
late Tue into Wed as the next vigorous upper system from the west
quickly moves over north central gulf region early to midday on
Wed. Ahead of this system a moderate to strong southerly wind flow
will develop by Wed afternoon with scattered to numerous showers
and thunderstorms moving in from the south and west by late
morning and afternoon. With this next system expect showers and
thunderstorms to be more concentrated near the coast by late Wed
morning followed by a well developed squall line stretching well
offshore moving in from the west late Wed afternoon and Wed
evening. A few strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible
with this next round especially with the squall line in the
afternoon. In the wake of this system a strong cold front is
expected, moving across the marine area late Wed evening through
early Thu morning. Expect a strong northwest flow at 25 to 30
knots initially behind the front by late Wed evening, with seas
building to 8 to 10 feet beyond 20 nm from shore, followed by
winds and seas gradually subsiding Thu and Thu night as strong
high pressure from the north builds across much of the northern
gulf late in the week. Small craft advisories will be likely ahead
and into the wake of the cold front beginning late Wed afternoon
continuing through early Fri morning. 32/ee
