Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mobile AL
428 AM CDT Mon Apr 8 2019

.NEAR TERM /Now Through Monday night/...The weak mid/upper level
shortwave ridging that was over the forecast area yesterday is
weakening and drifting off to the east as an upper low along the
TX/LA border this morning moves east toward the forecast area
today then moves east across the area tonight. At the surface,
low pressure located along the MS River this morning is expected
to drift slowly east into AL through tonight, while slightly
weakening. We expect that the current line of storms to move east
of our forecast area by around sunrise. After a short break from
the convection this morning, most model guidance indicates another
area/line of showers and storms will develop late this morning
into early afternoon especially across central and eastern
portions of the forecast area. Again, a few of the storms across
the area today could become strong to severe, with damaging winds
and hail being the primary threat. There is a MARGINAL Risk of
severe storms for the entire area today into this evening as the
system moves east across the area, although convective coverage
will decrease somewhat tonight. As the low pressure approaches
today, Bulk Shear (0-6km) increases to around 35 to 45 knots
(mostly unidirectional) this afternoon, with MUCAPE's potentially
increasing to 2000-2500 J/KG. With a little more coverage of
showers and storms earlier in the day today than yesterday, expect
highs to be slightly lower, in the mid to upper 70s. Lows tonight
generally in the lower 60s most areas except for some mid 60s
along the beaches. 12/DS

.SHORT TERM /Tuesday Through Wednesday night/...Will begin the
short term with a southern stream upper trof axis from the TN
River Valley to off the LA coast Tuesday AM. An upper low within
the trof axis will be positioned over central and northern AL. At
the surface, an occluding low pressure system over central AL tracks
east northeast over the southeast CONUS Tuesday night. Extending
out from the low, a frontal boundary will have moved east of the
area Tuesday with a post-frontal trof swinging across. The cyclonic
low to mid level curvature in the height field aloft and presence
of post frontal moisture, supports an area of wrap around cloudiness
migrating eastward over the forecast area during the day Tuesday.
A chance of showers and perhaps a few storms possible as well with
passage of modest lapse rates (6.5 to 7C/KM) within the colder
core trof. Wet bulb zero heights ranging from 9.5 to 10 kft would favor
some potential for hail in any convection Tuesday, but this would
be more probable in the presence of strong solar insolation which
would allow for stronger updrafts. For now, we are not expecting
this due to cloud cover. Will continue to monitor. With the upper
trof moving away Tuesday night, drier air overspreads the area
during the remainder of the short term. A weakly reflected surface
high migrates east over the area Wednesday and with plenty of
sunshine expected, daytime highs moderate, lifting into the lower
half of the 80s north of the coast. /10

.LONG TERM /Thursday Through Sunday/...A large and deep surface
low pressure system begins to exit the central High Plains
Thursday, lifting up across the upper Mid-West Thursday night.
Attendant cold front drops southeastward and approaches the
forecast area Friday AM. Next chance of showers re-enters the
forecast Thursday night. Chance PoPs continue Friday. The front
makes passage Friday and begins to stall off the coast by Saturday
as a southwest high low flow begins to evolve over the local area
ahead of upstream upper trof advancing eastward over the Four
Corners of the desert southwest. There are indications that
Saturday may trend more unsettled as a series of mid level
impulses in the high level southwest flow brings ascent over the
area within a more modified deep layer moist airmass. By Sunday,
large spread begins to occur with the eastward progression of the
southern stream storm system. The ECMWF slower than the GFS.
Considering the differences, will maintain chance PoPS into
Sunday. Overall, daily highs look to range above seasonal during
the medium range. Overnight lows well above climo. /10

&&

.MARINE...A moderate to occasionally strong southerly flow this
morning becomes southwesterly this afternoon and tonight as an area
of low pressure moves toward the marine area from the west. Flow
becomes more west and then northwesterly Tuesday and Tuesday night
as the low moves east to the north of the coastal waters. Lighter
and more variable winds expected midweek as high pressure rebuilds
over the marine area. Light to occasionally moderate onshore flow
redevelops late in the week as another frontal system approaches the
marine area from the west. Small craft should EXERCISE CAUTION today
through Tuesday night, especially offshore Gulf zones and mainly
today and tonight for the Gulf waters closer to the coast and over
area bays. Scattered to numerous showers and storms over the marine
area today, mainly this morning and again this afternoon into early
evening, with a brief break in between. Winds and seas expected to
be locally higher near stronger storms. Showers and storms become
more isolated to scattered across the marine area tonight with no
precipitation expected over the marine area Tuesday night through
Thursday night. Rain chances increase once again late in the week
with the approach of the next front. 12/DS
