155 PM EDT MON JUN 11 2001

THE 12Z MODEL RUNS ALL SEEM TO BE IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT AND NOT
PLANNING ANY MAJOR CHANGES TO EXISTING FORECAST. MAIN WEATHER
FEATURE OF INTEREST CONTINUES TO BE POSITION AND FORECAST TRACK OF
REMAINS OF ALLISON. AVN AND ETA BOTH TAKE SYSTEM FROM CURRENT
LOCATION...WHICH IS JUST NORTHWEST OF MOBILE...AND MOVE IT ON
NORTHEAST TRACK TO NORTHEAST ALABAMA BY EARLY TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
MODELS THEN WEAKEN IT FURTHER AS IT MOVES INTO MID ATLANTIC STATES
TOWARD THE END OF THE WEEK. CLOSER TO HOME...THUNDERSTORMS SLOW TO
GET GOING AGAIN TODAY AND EXPECT LATE AFTERNOON DEVELOPMENT WHERE
SEA BREEZES COLLIDE THEN ACTIVITY SHOULD MOVE EAST. EXPECT ONLY
SCATTERED COVERAGE AT THE MOST. FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE SHORT TERM
PERIOD...SURFACE RIDGE AXIS WHICH CURRENTLY LIES OVER EXTREME SOUTH
FLORIDA IS FORECAST TO SLOWLY MIGRATE NORTH AND BE LOCATED NEAR OR
JUST NORTH OF LAKE OKEECHOBEE BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. ETA/AVN ADVECT
DRIER AIR INTO AREA...WITH FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATING
PRECIPITABLE WATERS DROPPING BETWEEN A QUARTER AND A HALF INCH
DURING THE NEXT THIRTY SIX HOURS. WITH THIS IN MIND...WILL GO WITH
ONLY SCATTERED COVERAGE AT THE MOST WITH HIGHEST POPS OVER INTERIOR
AREAS. BY WEDNESDAY...EASTERLY FLOW SHOULD BE STRONG ENOUGH TO KEEP
BULK OF ACTIVITY FURTHER INLAND WITH TRANSITION TO LATE
NIGHT/MORNING SHOWERS EAST COAST AND INTERIOR/WEST COAST DURING THE
AFTERNOON. AS FAR AS TEMPS GO...LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER VERY WARM DAY
TUESDAY..THEN NOT QUITE AS WARM WEDNESDAY WITH EARLIER SEA BREEZE
ALONG EAST COAST.

MARINE...NO PROBLEMS HERE. WINDS MAINLY 5 TO 10 KNOTS OR LESS
THROUGH WEDNESDAY...THEN ABOUT 10 KNOTS THROUGH EXTENDED AS RIDGE
RETREATS NORTH OR AREA.

FIRE WEATHER...NO HIGHLIGHTS.

EXTENDED...LATEST AVN MODEL KEEPS SURFACE RIDGE TO THE NORTH OF LAKE
OKEECHOBEE THROvUGH MOST OF THE PERIOD...SO WILL KEEP EXTENDED PRETTY
MUCH UNCHANGED.
