Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mobile AL
402 PM CDT Wed Aug 7 2019

.NEAR TERM /Now Through Thursday/...A broad upper level trough will
slowly shift toward the Eastern Seaboard tonight, while a ridge of
high pressure continues to build into central and southern portions
of TX/LA. Weak ridging aloft continues to build eastward into our
forecast area during the day Thursday as the upper trough axis
shifts east. A weak surface ridge of high pressure will otherwise
continue to extend westward across the eastern and central Gulf of
Mexico through Thursday, while weak surface troughing remains
oriented inland over our region. The best coverage of showers and
storms remains focused over the southern part of the forecast area
along the surface trough/seabreeze boundary this afternoon, though
isolated convection has also developed over interior south central
AL. A few storms may linger into the evening hours, and will leave a
20% POP in place across the forecast area, before coverage tends to
develop offshore during the overnight hours. Another round of
scattered showers and storms is expected to develop again Thursday
afternoon. Deep layer moisture and instability will once again be
sufficient for a few stronger storm cells capable of producing brief
strong gusts over 40 mph, frequent lightning strikes and heavy
rainfall.

Outside of the convective chances, heat will continue across our
region Thursday. Temperatures in the lower to mid 90s and dewpoints
in 70s will promote afternoon heat indices in the 102-107 degree
range, with isolated spots reaching around 110 degrees. /21

.SHORT TERM /Thursday night Through Saturday night/...Similar
pattern continues with a weak upper level trough over the eastern
U.S. and large upper ridge centered over west Texas. The upper
trough is expected to weaken as the ridge slowly expands eastward
into the Arklatex region. This will keep our area along the
eastern edge of the ridge with west-northwest flow aloft. At the
surface, high pressure over the southwestern Atlantic will
continue to keep southwesterly winds at the surface. Low-level
moisture will remain ample as precipitable water values will
slowly climb to 2 to 2.5 inches by Friday. The slow increase in
moisture will likely lead to more storm coverage as several weak
shortwaves move through the upper pattern. Given the high
precipitable water values and DCAPE values likely approaching
1000 J/KG, strongest storms will be capable of gusty winds and
locally heavy rainfall. Temperatures will remain in the mid-90s
with heat indices around 102 to 107 degrees. BB/03

.LONG TERM /Sunday Through Wednesday/...By Sunday, the upper ridge
over the Arklatex will continue to slowly flatten and nudge east
towards the southeastern U.S. A weak surface trough/front will
drop down into central Alabama Sunday night and stall.
Precipitable water values will remain above 2 inches through the
forecast. Given continued shortwaves and a the presence of the
weak surface feature, scattered to sometimes numerous storms will
be possible through the forecast. Given the influences of the
upper ridge, temperatures will continue to slowly rise into the
mid 90s along the coast and upper 90s inland. The combination of
above normal temperatures and high dewpoints will lead to heat
index values of 105 to 110 with locally higher. The only caveat
to the heat will be the coverage of convection and how early
convection initiates each day. With high moisture values and
moderate CAPE, storms will be capable of locally gusty winds and
heavy downpours. Some areas could pickup 1 to 2 inches rather
quickly possibly leading to minor nuisance flooding in poor
drainage areas. BB/03

&&

.MARINE...A surface ridge will continue to stretch west over the
Gulf of Mexico through the next several days. Generally light to at
times moderate west winds are expected, with a diurnal onshore and
offshore component prevailing over near shore and protected waters.
Seas of 3 feet or less are expected through the forecast period.
Daily late night and morning showers and thunderstorms are expected,
with a few waterspouts possible. /21
