FLORIDA KEYS AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KEY WEST FL
320 AM EDT FRI AUG 26 2005
.DISCUSSION...
.CURRENTLY...
KATRINA IS EXITING THE SOUTHWEST FLORIDA MAINLAND THIS MORNING. MUCH
OF THE RAINFALL THROUGH LATE EVENING AND EARLY THIS MORNING HAS BEEN
ON THE SOUTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE OF THE STORM. LATEST KBYX LOOP SHOWS THE
STRONGEST RAINS ARE ARCING IN A BAND BEYOND 20 NM OF THE ISLAND
STRETCH...AND IN A TIGHTER BAND ON THE IMMEDIATE SOUTHERN ARC OF
CIRCULATION...BASICALLY FROM OUR GULF WATERS OFF OF MAINLAND MONROE
COUNTY EASTWARD THROUGH THE FLORIDA BAY AND CROSSING A LONG STRETCH
OF THE ISLAND CHAIN. TROPICAL STORMS FORCE WINDS HAVING BEEN
CREEPING IN FROM THE NORTHERN PORTION OF OUR GULF COASTAL
WATERS...AND INTO FLORIDA BAY. HIGHER GUSTS HAVE BEEN NOTED ON THE
NORTHERN EXTREME OF OUR ATLANTIC WATERS FROM PREVIOUS BANDING THAT
WAS OCCURRING THERE.
.FORECAST...
CONCENTRATION IS OBVIOUSLY FOCUSED ON THE IMMEDIATE TERM PORTION OF
THE FORECAST. FROM LOCAL RADAR LOOP...KATRINA'S CIRCULATION STILL
HAS A DISTURBING TRACK THAT SHOWS A CONTINUED MOTION SOUTH OF WEST.
AT ITS PRESENT LOCATION...ABOUT 60 MILES NORTH/NORTHEAST OF KEY WEST
AT 3 AM...IN ADDITION TO MOVING BACK OUT OVER THE WARM GULF
WATERS...THERE IS LITTLE DOUBT THAT TROPICAL STORM FORCE GUSTS ARE
EXPECTED ALONG THE ISLAND CHAIN...POSSIBLY PUSHING THE HIGHER END OF
STORM FORCE IN SQUALLS ACROSS THE LOWER KEYS LATER THIS MORNING AND
INTO THE AFTERNOON. HEAVY RAINS IN SQUALLS COULD DROP SEVERAL MORE
INCHES OF RAIN ALONG THE ISLANDS TODAY...AND ADDITIONALLY THROUGH
TONIGHT. A NUMBER OF LOCATIONS ALONG THE ISLANDS CAN EXPECT AS MUCH
AS 6 TO 10 INCHES OF RAIN...ISOLATED SPOTS MIGHT SEE EVEN MORE. OF
COURSE OUR FLOOD WATCH WILL CONTINUE TO ACCOMPANY THE TROPICAL STORM
WARNING. THE WIND PROFILE MAY ALSO BECOME MORE FAVORABLE FOR
STRONGER CONVECTIVE STORMS AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES LATER TODAY. WILL
HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE HOW THAT POTENTIAL PANS OUT. AT THIS TIME...NO
ADDITIONAL CONVECTIVE WATCHES ARE ANTICIPATED ON THE MORNING ZONE
ISSUANCE.
KATRINA IS FORECAST TO CURVE TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY...AND HEAD INTO
THE NORTHERN GULF WATERS. ALTHOUGH OUR WEATHER SHOULD IMPROVE...A
DEEP AND MOIST AND PERSISTENT SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL BE IN
KATRINA'S WAKE ALLOWING FOR ABOVE AVERAGE RAIN CHANCES THROUGH EARLY
MONDAY. NO CHANGES TO THE GRIDS FROM MONDAY THROUGH DAY 7.
&&
.MARINE...
TROPICAL STORM FORCE GUSTS WILL BE ACROSS ALL WATERS TODAY...AGAIN
PUSHING THE HIGH END OF STORM FORCE WINDS ACROSS THE GULF WATERS
ADJACENT TO THE LOWER KEYS...AND ESPECIALLY 20 TO 60 NM OFF OF
MAINLAND MONROE. SQUALLS WILL ALSO DUMP EXCESSIVE RAINS ON MOST
MARINE AREAS...AND THE WATERSPOUT THREAT REMAINS ELEVATED TODAY AND
THROUGH TONIGHT. SMALL CRAFT SHOULD REMAIN IN PORT. ALTHOUGH KATRINA
IS EXPECTED TO PULL AWAY FROM THE KEYS WATERS THROUGH
SUNDAY...BOATERS SHOULD NOT EXPECT WINDS FALLING BELOW 20 KNOTS
PROBABLY UNTIL MONDAY.
&&
.AVIATION...
THROUGH 00Z TODAY...THE CIRCULATION OF TROPICAL CYCLONE KATRINA
WILL IMPACT THE AIR ROUTE KMIA-KEYW AND TERMINALS KEYW AND KMTH AS
IT MOVES WEST SOUTHWEST AT ABOUT 8 MPH. AREAS ALONG THE ENTIRE
FLIGHT ROUTE WILL BE SUBJECT TO PREVAILING IFR CONDITIONS...HIGH
WINDS...AND TURBULENCE.
