Area forecast discussion, Jan 24, 5:35 AM CST, 3 hours 54 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mobile AL
535 AM CST Wed Jan 24 2018
.DISCUSSION...Updated for latest aviation discussion below.
&&
.AVIATION...
24/12Z issuance...VFR conditions and generally light north winds
expected through the period. 12/DS
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 417 AM CST Wed Jan 24 2018/
NEAR TERM /Now Through Wednesday night/...Surface high pressure
centered over the southern Plains early this morning will drift
east and be centered over the interior southeastern states by late
tonight. This will bring cooler and drier conditions to the local
area with a generally light northwesterly flow becoming more
northeasterly through the period. Skies mostly clear, although
will see some high, thin clouds. Highs today in the mid to upper
50s with relative humidity primarily in the 35 to 40 percent
range this afternoon. Cooler tonight with the ridge axis centered
over the area, with lows ranging from the low to mid 30s over
inland areas to the upper 30s and lower 40s down near and along
the coast. 12/DS
SHORT TERM /Thursday Through Friday night/...Large ridge of
surface high pressure aligned over the Appalachians Thursday
morning eases eastward to the Mid-Atlantic coast by Friday. Most
of the short term looks to remain rain-free as the ridge is the
dominant weather player. Daytime highs Thursday and Friday not too
far off seasonal normals. Friday, a long wave trof in the high
levels evolves over the Plains and sharpens a bit going into
Friday night. Ahead of the upper trof, a gradual return of deep
Gulf moisture is shown from west to east late in the period.
Considering this, along with weak layer ascent from the passage
of mid level impulses in the evolving high level west southwest
flow Friday night is when a small chance of showers will be
introduced. /10
LONG TERM /Saturday Through Tuesday/...Upper trof makes steady
eastward progression over the MS River Valley this weekend with
attendant surface cold front swinging east over the deep south.
Differences continue in the medium range global models on the
handling of a wave of surface low pressure over the northern Gulf.
The 24.00Z operational GFS shows run to run consistency on moving
its low, more along a pre-frontal trof axis, eastward over the
central Gulf Saturday night, while the ECMWF shows its low, more
to the northwest and embedded in the front itself, skirting
eastward over the Alabama and northwest Florida coastal waters
also on Saturday night. Depending on which model verifies will
dictate rain totals. If the GFS, bulk of heavier rains deeper into
the Gulf closer to its low and ECMWF a more northward focus. The
answer may very well lie somewhere in between with the blended
guidance used, which shows a good distribution of qpf moving east
across land and marine areas over the weekend. It appears with
limited instability in place, the bulk of the weather looks to be
showers over the land zones. To the south, possibility exists of
a few storms embedded in activity moving east over the Gulf
waters. Rains look to make a quick eastward progression out of the
area by late in the day Sunday with high pressure building in
from the west in the wake of frontal passage.
Daytime highs slightly above seasonal normals to start the outlook
trend a few degrees below by early next week. Nighttime lows well
above climatology Saturday night trend well below for much of the
area by Monday night. /10
MARINE...A moderate to strong northeast flow today through
Thursday becomes more easterly by Thursday night and continues
through late Saturday as a cold front approaches from the west.
Small Craft Advisory conditions likely at times through the entire
forecast period, especially during the overnight and early morning
hours. Winds likely slightly lower during the daytime hours, but
still in the Exercise Caution range. The cold front, possibly
accompanied by an area of low pressure near the coast or just
offshore, moves across the marine area late Saturday night and early
Sunday, with scattered to numerous showers and a few thunderstorms
expected. Showers and storms ending during the day on Sunday with
a moderate to strong offshore wind flow developing. 12/DS
