.AVIATION...
12Z issuance...VFR conditions will prevail through the next 24
hours. /13
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 401 AM CST Sat Feb 5 2022/
NEAR TERM UPDATE /Now Through Sunday/...A large positively-tilted
upper-level trough will continue pushing eastwards, moving off the
Eastern Seaboard by this afternoon. For the local area,
southwesterly flow aloft will continue through this morning before
turning more zonal/west-southwesterly after a shortwave passes
overhead. This flow will persist through the remainder of the
period. At the surface, high pressure will be in control for the
weekend, as it builds across the eastern half of CONUS. This will
allow for a much drier air mass to filter in, bringing PWATs down to
below 0.25 inches by the afternoon. As the drier air moves in, the
persistent cloud deck will begin to erode later this morning, giving
way to mostly clear skies for the weekend. Highs today will be in
the upper 40s to lower 50s areawide. Temperatures tonight will drop
into the mid to upper 20s, with low 30s along the coast. Sunday's
highs will be in the mid to upper 50s to near 60. 96/13
SHORT TERM /Sunday night Through Monday night/...An upper level
trough continues to swing across the central portion of the CONUS as
we head into Sunday night. The southern flank of the trough begins
to lag behind and eventually merges with an upper level low sliding
east across Baja California and northern Mexico. Flow aloft remains
southwesterly and the mid and upper levels briefly moisten up as the
bulk of the trough approaches the region on Monday. Down in the
lower levels, the area remains on the far southwestern periphery of
a sprawling surface high moving out of New England. Meanwhile, a
surface low off the GA/FL Atlantic coastline drifts up the Eastern
Seaboard through the day on Monday. Given the dry air in the lower
levels on Monday and moisture briefly increasing in the mid and
upper levels, virga will likely be seen across the area (especially
east of I-65) by Monday afternoon. There will be just enough
moistening in the lower levels across northwest Florida by Monday
afternoon to include a brief, low-end POP (generally south of the I-
10 corridor), but don't anticipate much in the way of rainfall
amounts as it will be light rain showers. Temperatures rebound into
the mid to upper 50s during the day on Monday. Overnight lows on
Monday night will be similar to Sunday night with temperatures in
the upper 20s to low 30s for inland communities with upper 30s to
low 40s at the beaches. 07/mb
EXTENDED TERM /Tuesday Through Friday/...A pair of upper shortwaves
are expected to pass over the region, with the first occurring on
Tuesday and the second Wednesday afternoon and evening. However, the
atmosphere will be too dry to support any chance of rain. A longwave
trough will then settle over the eastern CONUS through the remainder
of the period. With a weak surface ridge setting up across the
region, light northerly winds on Tuesday will become variable
Wednesday and Thursday, followed by light northwest winds Thursday
night into Friday as a weak cold front passes through the area.
High temperatures between 54 to 59 degrees on Tuesday will slowly
rise to around seasonal norms (low to mid 60s) Thursday and Friday
mainly due to a drier airmass allowing for better daytime heating.
Low temperatures will see a bit on a rise through the week. Lows in
the upper 20s to mid 30s Tuesday night will only increase about 5
degrees across the board by Thursday night. /22
MARINE...Moderate to strong northerly flow will continue through
this afternoon. Winds and seas decrease late today into Sunday as
high pressure builds over the marine area. A light to moderate
northerly flow will continue through mid week. /13
