What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Mar 14, 2:19 PM EDT, 1 hour 10 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 14, 2:19 PM EDT, 1 hour 10 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tallahassee FL 219 PM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 ...New AVIATION... .UPDATE... Issued at 1024 AM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 No updates are needed this morning to the near-term forecast. Beyond the near-term, folks should stay weather aware this weekend due to the expectation of a significant severe thunderstorm event from late Saturday night into Sunday. && .NEAR TERM... (Today and tonight) Issued at 345 AM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 While the morning will start out overcast and foggy, an upper level ridge translates overhead while low-level southerly flow begins to increase this afternoon. This should allow partly cloudy skies to develop by the afternoon as fog and low clouds scour out through the morning. Warmer temperatures are forecast today and will be in the upper 70s and low 80s. For tonight, southerly flow continues to become well established and overnight low temperatures will be milder and in the upper 50s and low 60s. && .SHORT TERM... (Saturday through Sunday night) Issued at 345 AM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 Breezy onshore winds and surging moisture is expected Saturday ahead of the next frontal system. A very deep trough is forecast to dive southward across the southern Plains into the Gulf Coast states Saturday before just starting to become more positively tilted as the associated storms move across our area. This setup seems to be shaping up to be a potentially significant severe weather event for our area Saturday night into Sunday morning. Favorable jet dynamics, deep trough, and a strong low level jet will combine with plenty of surface based instability as a broken squall line of likely supercells pushes eastward across the area ahead of a cold front. All modes of severe weather will be possible along with locally heavy rainfall, but most concerning at this time is the potential for strong nighttime tornadoes (EF2+). A Moderate Risk for severe weather has been expanded eastward to cover SE Alabama and portions of the FL Panhandle, while an Enhanced Risk remains in place eastward into the Apalachicola/Tallahassee/Moultrie areas. A Slight Risk remains for areas further east between the outlooks for Sunday morning before 12z (Day 2) and after 12z (Day 3). This is expected to be one round of storms pushing through the area from west to east during the overnight hours Saturday night into the morning on Sunday, but the SPC outlooks span 2 days because of the timing of the event crossing 12z Sunday. While Southeast Alabama and the FL Panhandle have higher potential for severe weather than areas further east, all of our FL Panhandle, western & central Big Bend (including Tallahassee), and southwest Georgia counties have the potential for strong and potentially long track tornadoes overnight Saturday night into Sunday morning. This event could be especially dangerous since it is forecast to occur in the overnight hours when folks are asleep. Please please please encourage everyone to be prepared and have multiple ways to receive warnings--even in the middle of the night!! The front itself is forecast to push through Sunday with cooler and drier conditions in its wake. Lows Sunday night are forecast to drop back into the 40s. && .LONG TERM... (Monday through Thursday) Issued at 345 AM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 Cooler and drier conditions are forecast to kick off the long term period in the wake of Sunday's cold front. Onshore flow returns on Tuesday, kicking off a gradual warming and moistening trend across the area ahead of the next frontal system which is forecast to move through the area on Thursday. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 200 PM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 VFR conditions are expected to prevail throughout the TAF period. Wind and wind gusts will begin to pick up tomorrow morning with gusts in the 20-30 kt range expected tomorrow afternoon. Cigs across ECP/DHN will begin to lower throughout tomorrow ahead of a line of severe thunderstorms tomorrow night. && .MARINE... Issued at 1027 AM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 Southerly winds will increase over the next 36 hours. By late this afternoon, we will most likely issue a Small Craft Advisory. Mariners should beware of a significant thunderstorm squall line that will move across the northeast Gulf waters late Saturday night into Sunday. Small craft are advised to remain in port for the passage of the severe thunderstorm squall line. From CWF synopsis...Southeast and then southerly breezes will steadily freshen from this afternoon through early Sunday morning, rising to near- gale conditions on Saturday night. A severe thunderstorm squall line will pass the waters from late Saturday night through Sunday morning, bringing high potential for severe winds, waterspouts, and possibly some hail. Behind the squall line, a cold front will bring a turn to westerly to northwesterly winds Sunday night into Monday. A high pressure center will pass across the waters on Monday night. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 345 AM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 Good dispersions are expected across the area this afternoon as southerly flow begins to become better established. Increasing humidity should keep fire weather concerns on the lower side today. Only areas of concerns today would be areas that have missed out on rainfall over the last 7 to 10 days. Much stronger southerly winds take hold on Saturday, especially across southeast Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. Despite higher relative humidities, some local pockets of elevated fire weather concerns could exist in areas that have missed out on recent rains and will receive high dispersions on Saturday. Widespread wetting rains are likely as a line of severe storms moves through the region Saturday evening into Sunday. && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 345 AM EDT Fri Mar 14 2025 Isolated flash flooding is possible on Saturday night and Sunday morning, as a severe thunderstorm squall line moves across the region. The line will make steady progress eastward, limiting duration of intense rainfall rates and therefore rainfall amounts. Most places are forecast to get about 1-1.5 inches of rain, which would generally not cause issues. However, if any parts of the line temporarily slow down, then isolated flash flooding could result. Minor coastal flooding is possible along the shoreline of Apalachee Bay on Saturday night and Sunday morning. Strong southerly winds in advance of the Sunday cold front will push water onshore, particularly along the north and northeast side of Apalachee Bay. The normal tide cycle will be amplified this weekend due to the upcoming full moon, so a lot will depend on if the peak onshore push of water can overlap with the normal high tide. Where these two occurrences overlap, then minor coastal flooding would become a possibility. && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not requested.
