Area forecast discussion, Jun 15, 1:57 PM EST, 33 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSONVILLE FL 257 PM EDT WED JUN 15 2005 .SHORT TERM...VIS IMAGERY AND RADAR SHOW SCT SHOWERS AND STORMS FIRING OVER THE NE FL ZONES WITH GENERAL NW FLOW FROM SFC UP TO 15 KFT. SOME DRY AIR ALOFT AND HIGH INSTABILITY W/CAPE NEAR 3000-3500 J/KG MAY PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS NEAR 55 MPH AND SMALL HAIL IN THE STRONGEST STORMS. LATEST MSAS ANALYSIS SHOWS PLENTY OF LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE OVER THE INTERIOR ZONES WITH AN E COAST SEA BREEZE PUSHING INLAND TO I-95 FROM SRN DUVAL CO SWD. EXPECT ACTIVITY TO SLOWLY WIND DOWN TONIGHT BECOME ISOLD AFT MIDNIGHT WITH SMALL AREA OF PATCHY FOG DEVELOPING INTERIOR SECTIONS. GFS SHOWS BLOW UP OF CONVECTION JUST TO W LATE TONIGHT BUT SEEMS TO BE PRODUCT OF CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK. HOWEVER STILL PLAN TO KEEP SOME ISOLD CONVECTION GOING LATE TONIGHT AS A SHORTWAVE MOVES ACROSS THE SE STATES. WEAK COLD FRONT CONTS TO PUSH SLOWLY SEWD THAT IS PRESENTLY OVER N CENTRAL GA. THIS FRONT WILL PUSH INTO SRN PART OF GA ON THU WITH STILL ENOUGH MOISTURE TO GENERATE ISOLD SCT CONVECTION OVER MAINLY OVER NE FL ZONES THU AFTN. FRONT REMAINS NEARLY STATIONARY OVER SRN GA INTO FRI MORNING AND MEAN LAYER RH WILL BE LOWER THAN PREVIOUS DAYS. HOWEVER...MOISTURE POOLING ALONG THE FRONT AND COOLING ALOFT WILL AID IN SCT CONVECTION OVER CENTRAL FORECAST AREA. THROUGH SAT THE FRONT HANGS UP FROM COASTAL GA AREA TO NEAR SUWANNEE VALLEY WITH MODELS NOW INDICATING MORE DEEP LAYER AVAILABLE. THUS FEEL MORE CONFIDENT IN SCT POPS ACROSS THE BOARD. HIGH TEMPS WILL REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL INTO THU WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 90S...NEAR UPPER 90S OVER SE GA. THUS WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION HEAT INDICES UP TO NEAR 105 IN ZONES AND HWO. .LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY... GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN REASONABLY GOOD AGREEMENT SHOWING MID-UPPER LEVEL LOW AND TROUGH OVER THE SE STATES WITH TROUGH AXIS EXTENDING TO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES ON SUN. THE LOW RETROGRADES MON AND BECOMES STATIONARY TUE NEAR MS/AL AREA. AS LOW RETROGRADES THIS WILL LIKELY LEAD TO INCREASED MOISTURE AS MID LEVEL FLOW BACKS BRINGING GOMEX MOISTURE INTO THE FORECAST AREA. SYSTEM MAY DRIFT BACK EWD BY WED BUT MOISTURE STILL APPEARS MORE THAN SUFFICIENT FOR CONVECTION. AT SFC...ON SUN THE WEAK STATIONARY FRONT AND LOW PRES WILL BE OVER THE CWA BUT DUE TO DRY SLOT AROUND THE UPPER LOW (NEAR WRN N.C.) POPS LOOK TO BE MINIMAL FOR SUN. MON-TUE SYSTEM DRIFTS WWD ALLOWING SW FLOW ALOFT AND ADVECTION OF LOW AND MID LEVEL MOISTURE TO THE AREA SO HIGHER POPS RETURN TO THE AREA. SW FLOW ALOFT CONTS INTO WED WITH MOISTURE LEVELS REMAINING RELATIVELY HIGH. DUE TO INCREASED CLOUD COVER AND TROUGHINESS OVER THE AREA TEMPS ARE EXPECTED TO BE NEAR OR JUST BELOW CLIMO. && .MARINE...NO HEADLINES. SW WINDS WILL CONTINUE INTO SAT EXCEPT BRIEFLY ONSHORE AT THE COAST AS SEA BREEZE DEVELOPS IN AFTN. WILL CAP WINDS AT 15 KT AND SEAS MAINLY STAY BELOW 4 FT.
