AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

546 AM EST Sat Dec 11 2021

.UPDATE...
FOR 12Z AVIATION.

&&

.DISCUSSION...

Quick update to include the tornado watch information. Also made
adjustments to hourly temperature forecast.

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z TAF DISCUSSION.

Strong storm system will move across the TAF sites during the next
12 hours. A line of showers and embedded thunderstorms will move
across the TAF sites between 14-17Z. High wind gusts to 35kts+
are expected with this squall line along with heavy downpour.

This band of convection will be along and ahead of a frontal
boundary. The tight pressure gradients with this system will
produce a strong low-level jet of 60-70kts at 850mb. The tight
pressure gradient will produce windy conditions at all TAF sites
before and after the frontal passage. Southwest winds of 15 to
25kts with gusts to 30kts are anticipated becoming west then
northwest after FROPA.

Dry air will quickly move in behind the frontal passage this
evening with ceilings/vis becoming VFR with gradual weakening of
the pressure gradients.
