Area forecast discussion, Sep 28, 1:06 PM EST, 3 hours 45 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL 206 PM EDT WED SEP 28 2005 .DISCUSSION...UPPER LOW CENTERED ALONG THE ATLANTIC COAST OF THE FLORIDA PENINSULA AROUND FORT PIERCE AND VERO BEACH MOVING SLOWLY EAST. COLD AIR AROUND -10C ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER LOW AND SUFFICIENT MOISTURE STILL EXPECTED TO FIRE CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON...SOME OF WHICH LIKELY WILL BE STRONG. WILL MENTION POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN ALSO DUE TO SLOW MOVEMENT. UPPER LOW IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE MOVING EAST AWAY FROM THE PENINSULA TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...WHEN IT SLOWS UP AROUND 70W LONGITUDE SUNDAY AND THEN REVERSES COURSE BACK TOWARD FLORIDA MONDAY AND TUESDAY. WITH LESS INSTABILITY AND DRIER AIR ALOFT ON THE BACK SIDE OF THIS UPPER LOW...POPS SHOULD COME DOWN MORE TOWARD CLIMATOLOGY BUT STILL ABOVE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. COMPLICATING THIS SCENARIO IS THE TROPICAL WAVE/POTENTIAL DEPRESSION IN THE CARIBBEAN. TPC PROGS THIS SYSTEM TOWARD AND ACROSS THE YUCATAN OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. THE 12Z GFS DEVELOPS AN INTERESTING FEATURE OVER WESTERN CUBA BY 12Z FRIDAY...POSSIBLE CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK OF SOME KIND? IT CERTAINLY LOOKS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE NORTHERN PART OF THE CARIBBEAN WAVE. THIS FEATURE MOVES INTO THE SOUTHEAST GULF OF MEXICO SATURDAY AND COULD BE AN INFLUENCE ON THE FORECAST...BUT IS IT REAL? THIS IS THE FIRST RUN WE HAVE SEEN THIS SO FOR NOW WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY EFFECT. BOTTOM LINE WILL BE TO CONTINUE SOMEWHAT ABOVE CLIMATOLOGY POPS SATURDAY THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD. HAVE GENERALLY ACCEPTED GFS MOS TEMPERATURES EXCEPT LOWERED MINIMUMS OVER THE INTERIOR TO BE MORE IN LINE WITH OBSERVED LOWS PAST COUPLE OF MORNINGS AROUND 70F. && .MARINE...NOT MUCH CHANGE IN MARINE CONDITIONS WITH A GENERAL EASTERLY FLOW THROUGH THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS MAINLY LESS THAN 15 KNOTS. CAN STILL SEE ON WEBCAM A SWELL OF 1 TO 2 FEET AT JUPITER INLET BUT THIS SHOULD DIMINISH OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. SHOULD A DEPRESSION DEVELOP OVER THE NORTHWEST CARIBBEAN IN THE NEXT DAY OR TWO WINDS ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA COULD BE STRONGER WITH A BETTER GRADIENT. && .FIRE WEATHER...NO CONCERNS. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
