Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Huntsville AL
602 AM CDT Thu Mar 18 2021

.UPDATE...
For 12Z TAFS.

.NEAR TERM...(Today)
Issued at 235 AM CDT Thu Mar 18 2021

A few showers continue early this morning but the pre-frontal trough
that brought in the threat for strong to severe storms has now
passed to the east and all convective watches or warning have been
expired. Widespread heavy rainfall during the day yesterday into
yesterday evening has lead to widespread flooding across the area.
Several areal flood warnings remain in effect this morning. If you
approach a flooded roadway, remember to turn around don't drown.

The main surface cold front is still located just to the west of the
area in Mississippi. This cold front will continue to progress
eastward throughout the morning hours. Winds will transition to
southwesterly and eventually westerly behind the boundary. Showers
associated with the boundary should exit to the east before
daybreak. Cooler air will advect into the area behind this cold
front. Current temperatures across the area will be the highs for the
day with temperatures dropping throughout the day. Decent cold
advection, persistent cloud cover, and gusty westerly winds will make
things noticeably cooler today. As the upper level closed low passes
over the region later this morning into the afternoon, there could
be a few scattered light showers. For now, have around a 20-30 PoP
late this morning and afternoon. Temperatures will fall into the low
to mid 50s around noon and into the mid to upper 40s near sunset.
Westerly winds will also gust into the 25-30 mph range today.

.SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Saturday)
Issued at 235 AM CDT Thu Mar 18 2021

Winds will subside some tonight as the upper level closed low moves
eastward over the Central and Southern Appalachians. Any chances of
light rain will end from southwest to northeast early this evening
and into the overnight hours. Cloud cover will linger and winds will
remain around 5-10 mph. This should keep lows in the low to mid 40s.

Low-level flow will be from the north on Friday with the low to the
northeast and the high to the northwest. Cold air advection and
persistent cloud cover will lead to a rather cold late March day.
Highs will only climb into the upper 40s to low 50s.

The surface high will shift to the north of the area late Friday into
Friday night and will move into the Northeastern U.S. The models have
been pretty consistent with pushing a backdoor cold front into
northeast Alabama early Saturday morning. A few of the models
indicate light showers along this boundary but will leave the
forecast dry at this time. Saturday will be the coldest morning in
the forecast period with lows in the mid 30s to low 40s.

Temperatures will finally begin to moderate on Saturday with height
rises behind the slowly exiting upper level low. Sunny skies are
forecast with subsidence behind the exiting trough and building
ridge. With sunny skies, highs will climb into the upper 50s to low
60s.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 235 AM CDT Thu Mar 18 2021

The warming trend will continue into the long-term portion of the
forecast as the ridge continues to build across the region early next
week. Highs on Sunday will climb into the low to mid 60s under
mostly sunny skies. Overall, the weekend looks good for any outdoor
plans. Temperatures continue to slowly warm on Monday with highs into
the mid to upper 60s. The next chance of rain will arrive with
another impressive system mid-week.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Friday morning)
Issued at 601 AM CDT Thu Mar 18 2021

MVFR conditions at MSL with VFR conditions at HSV. MVFR conditions
will feature throughout much of the TAF cycle as low-level moisture
wraps in around a departing upper level low. There could be a few
light showers later today but with low confidence left the TAFs dry
for now. Westerly winds will be gusty today behind the departing cold
front with some gusts to 25 kts at times. Gusts should wane after
sunset later this evening with IFR conditions ceilings possible late
in the TAF cycle.
