What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Dec 11, 2:45 AM EST, 3 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 11, 2:45 AM EST, 3 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tallahassee FL
245 AM EST Mon Dec 11 2017

.NEAR TERM [Through Today]...

A shortwave and surface cold front will drop southeastward across
the Midwest further amplifying the long wave trough east of the
Continental Divide. At the surface, winds will shift to the
southwest by this afternoon which will bring warmer temperatures to
the Tri-state region. Temps will be on the order of 10 degrees
warmer than they were on Sunday with highs in the lower to mid
60s.

.SHORT TERM [Tonight Through Wednesday]...

An upper level trough remains positioned across the eastern CONUS
through the short term. An upper level short wave and surface cold
front will push through on Tuesday however with very limited
moisture, it will be a dry front as it pushes through and thus the
only impact will be temperature wise. Surface high pressure builds
in for Wednesday with dry conditions continuing through the short
term. Highs will reach into the mid 50s to mid 60s on Tuesday but
will only reach into the lower to mid 50s on Wednesday behind the
front. Lows in the 40s on Tuesday morning will drop to near
freezing on Wednesday morning.

.LONG TERM [Wednesday Night Through Monday]...

Dry conditions will continue through Thursday with precipitation
chances returning to the forecast on Friday. Models are consistent
with moisture lifting northward across the southeast on Friday
ahead of the next system and high pressure building in on Saturday
but guidance begins to diverge after this. The GFS lifts a low
across the south and pushes precipitation back to the area late in
the weekend into early next week, while the ECMWF is much drier as
it pushes a front through the southeast.

&&

.AVIATION [Through 06Z Tuesday]...

VFR conditions are expected through the period with clear skies
and light winds.

&&

.MARINE...

A cold front will push through on Tuesday resulting in an increase
in winds and seas to Small Craft Advisory conditions Tuesday into
Tuesday night. Conditions will decrease on Wednesday with a brief
increase again on Friday.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...

No fire weather concerns.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...

Dry conditions will prevail through mid week and thus there are no
flooding concerns over the next few days. Although rain chances
return to the forecast late in the week, rainfall amounts at this
time do not appear to be significant.

&&

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not requested. However, spotters are always
encouraged to safely report significant weather conditions when they
occur by calling the office or tweeting us @NWSTallahassee.
