Area forecast discussion, Jun 10, 3:58 PM CDT, 1 minute before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL 358 PM CDT Sun Jun 10 2018 .NEAR TERM /Now Through Monday/...Isolated to scattered convection will linger into the early evening hours, diminishing by mid to late evening with the loss of daytime heating. However, additional development is possible during the early morning hours offshore and along coastal areas due to the marine diurnal max, west to southwest wind resulting in some weak coastal convergence, and an increasingly tropical airmass with precipitable waters hovering around 1.8-1.9 inches. Therefore, will show highest rain chances (30-40%) along and south of I-10 during the predawn hours. Numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop across the area during the day Monday, beginning closer to the coast in the morning and spreading inland as the day progresses. This is due to the persistent broad trough/weakness aloft combined with increasing deep layer moisture (precip waters 1.8 to 2 inches.) Locally heavy rainfall and frequent lightning strikes will be the primary storm threats, although a few storms could produce gusty winds as the wet microburst potential will increase. Lows will generally range from around 70 inland to low to mid 70s along the coast. Highs on Monday will generally be in the mid to upper 80s, tempered slightly by the increase in clouds and rain chances. 34/JFB .SHORT TERM /Monday night Through Wednesday night/...A weak and broad upper level trough will continue across the southeastern states through midweek. Meanwhile, a ridge of sfc high pressure will remain from the western Atlantic across the Gulf Coast. Southerly flow on the western side of the ridge will continue to pump deep layer moisture into the region. The combination of increasing deep layer moisture, the weakness aloft and daytime heating will lead to scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms each afternoon. Isolated to scattered showers and storms will be possible overnight as well, especially near the coast. Locally heavy rainfall and frequent lightning strikes will be the primary storm threats, although a few storms could produce gusty winds due to wet microbursts. /13 .LONG TERM /Thursday Through Sunday/...The upper trough will only move slowly to the east through the end of the week as an upper ridge builds in from the west. The combination of the trough, plenty of deep layer moisture and daytime heating will continue to lead to daily rounds of scattered to locally numerous showers and thunderstorms. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are forecast during the overnight hours. Both high and low temperatures will be close to seasonal values. /13 && .MARINE...A predominate light west to southwest flow will persist through next week as high pressure continues to ridge into the Gulf from the western Atlantic. Little change in seas are expected with wave heights staying in the 1-2 foot range. 34/JFB && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
