AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL 345 PM EDT WED JUL 19 2006 .REST OF THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING... ATMOSPHERE UNSTABLE ENOUGH TO PRODUCE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS DESPITE THE DRY AIR NOTED ON AREA SOUNDING IN THE MID-LEVELS. THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WITH THE GREATEST COVERAGE ACROSS OUR WESTERN GA/AL AND CENTRAL PANHANDLE COUNTIES...MORE WDLY SCATTERED ACTIVITY TO THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST. THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH IN BOTH COVERAGE AND INTENSITY AFTER SUNSET. .SYNOPSIS... 19Z WATER VAPOR AND RUC ANALYSIS CONTINUES TO SHOW THE DOMINANT RIDGE CENTERED ACROSS THE MIDDLE OF THE COUNTY. THE RIDGE EXTENDS EAST ACROSS THE GULF STATES AND THE SOUTHEASTERN U.S. AND ALSO WEST TO THE FOUR CORNERS REGION. A SERIES OF SHORTWAVE TROUGH CONTINUE TO PROGRESS RAPIDLY EASTWARD WITHIN THE NORTHERN STREAM TO THE NORTH OF THE UPPER RIDGE AXIS. ONE SHORTWAVE IS PUSHING OFF THE NORTHEAST AND MID-ATLANTIC COAST WITH A COLDFRONT THAT WILL BRING SOME RELIEF TO THE HIGH HEAT EXPERIENCED OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS. A SECOND IS CURRENTLY PUSHING THROUGH THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND SOUTHCENTRAL CANADA...HELPING TO PRODUCE A SIGNIFICANT MCS FEATURES OVERNIGHT AND THIS MORNING (NOT UNUSUAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR). THINKING ON THE EVOLUTION OF THE UPPER PATTERN REMAINS UNCHANGED. GLOBAL MODELS STILL IN AGREEMENT OF SLOWLY RETROGRADING AND AMPLIFYING THE UPPER RIDGE TO THE WEST COAST THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK. THIS MOVEMENT WEST WILL ALLOW A SIGNIFICANT TROUGH FOR THE END OF JULY TO DIG INTO THE GREAT LAKES AND OHIO VALLEY ON FRIDAY...AND THEN ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE EAST COAST AND SOUTHEAST FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. THIS UPPER TROUGH LOOKS TO PROGRESS EAST AND DE-AMPLIFY RAPIDLY AFTER THE WEEKEND WITH RIDGING RE-ESTABLISHING ITSELF FROM THE EAST ACROSS FLORIDA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO DURING THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK. AT THE SURFACE...VERY WEAK GRADIENT CONTINUES ACROSS OUR AREA WITH HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO. THIS RIDGE WILL SLOWLY PUSH EAST THROUGH THE DAY ON THURSDAY ALLOWING THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AXIS TO BUILD WEST FROM THE BAHAMAS ACROSS THE NORTHEAST GOMEX. THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AXIS LOOKS TO HOLD IN PLACE OVER OR JUST SOUTH OF OUR FORECAST AREA THROUGH THE DAY ON FRIDAY...AND THEN BEGIN TO SETTLE SOUTH ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA INTO THE WEEKEND. THE MOVEMENT OF THE RIDGE AXIS SOUTH WILL BE IN RESPONSE TO THE DIGGING UPPER TROUGH ALONG THE EAST COAST AND A WEAK FRONTAL SYSTEM SINKING SOUTH INTO THE SOUTHEAST U.S. LATER SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY. INCREASING MOISTURE ADVECTION ON THE RESULTANT SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST LOW LEVEL FLOW AND ALSO ASSOCIATED WITH MOISTURE POOLING ALONG THE FRONT WILL HELP INCREASE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA INTO THE WEEKEND. FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...EXPECTING SCATTERED AFTERNOON CONVECTION...EACH DAY. GUIDANCE HAS BEEN UNDER-ESTIMATING POPS OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS AND FEEL THAT THE TREND CONTINUES INTO THURSDAY. WENT WITH A 30 POP ACROSS THE AREA...WHICH IS STILL UNDER CLIMO FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. FORECASTED SOUNDING PROFILES STILL GIVING 1500-2000 J/KG OF CAPE DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING...WITH A SIMILAR SITUATION ON FRIDAY. AS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE SETTLES SOUTH FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY...THE FLOW AND INCREASING MOISTURE IS LIKELY TO ALLOW THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOME NOCTURNAL OFFSHORE CONVECTION. KEPT A SLIGHT CHANCE POP IN ALONG THE COAST FRIDAY NIGHT THINKING SOME OF THIS CONVECTION COULD FLIRT WITH THE COASTAL AREA...ESPECIALLY FROM DESTIN/FT WALTON AREA DOWN TO APALACHICOLA. SUNDAY IS QUITE A LONG WAY OUT...BUT GFS ADVERTISING AROUND 25 KTS OF 0-6KM BULK SHEAR AHEAD TO THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. WHILE THIS IS NOT SUPER IMPRESSIVE...IT IS CERTAINLY MORE THAN IS USUALLY SEEN THIS TIME OF YEAR AND COULD AID SOMEWHAT IN STORM ORGANIZATION. IN FACT A MODIFIED SOUNDING FOR 92/71 SUNDAY AFTERNOON GIVES BETWEEN 2500 TO 3000 J/KG. QUICK CALCULATION OF THE CRAVEN SIGSVR PARAMETER GIVES BETWEEN 30000 AND 35000 UNITS (PLENTY ENOUGH FOR AT LEAST SOME STORM ORGANIZATION). OF NOTE...T.S BERYL CONTINUES TO SPIN JUST OFF THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST. THIS SYSTEM POSES NO THREAT TO OUR FORECAST AREA AND IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE ITS SLOW NORTHWARD MOTION INTO THE DAY ON THURSDAY. && .MARINE... HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE COASTAL WATERS WILL SETTLE SLOWLY SOUTHWEST THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING. THE BERMUDA HIGH RIDGE AXIS WILL BUILD ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THURSDAY NIGHT AND REMAIN ACROSS THE WATERS THROUGH FRIDAY. THE RIDGE IS FORECAST TO SETTLE BACK SOUTH OVER THE UPCOMING WEEKEND AS A WEAK FRONT MOVES INTO THE SOUTHEAST UNITED STATES...THEN LIFT BACK TO THE COASTAL WATERS FOR THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK. WINDS AND SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW CAUTION LEVELS THROUGH SATURDAY...BUT WILL BE LOCALLY HIGHER NEAR THE COAST EACH AFTERNOON WITH SEA-BREEZE DEVELOPMENT. AS THE GRADIENT TIGHTENS AHEAD OF THE FRONT SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY...WINDS MAY APPROACH CAUTION LEVELS. && .FIRE WX... SCATTERED EVENING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA WILL DISSIPATE AFTER SUNSET...WHILE SOME PATCHY DENSE FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER INLAND AREAS OVERNIGHT. ON THURSDAY...A MORE EAST TO SOUTHEAST FLOW WILL TAKE OVER AT THE SURFACE...WHILE AN UPPER RIDGE BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST. MOISTURE LEVELS WILL REMAIN HIGH WHILE AFTERNOON SEA BREEZE ONSHORE WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. WINDS WILL BECOME MORE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST OVER THE WEEKEND...AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE NORTHWEST. RAIN CHANCES AND RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL REMAIN ELEVATED. && .AVIATION... EXPECT MAINLY VFR ACROSS THE AREA FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS...WITH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED LIFR TO IFR WITH SHOWERS & THUNDERSTORMS. COVERAGE IS EXPECTED TO BE LOWER THAN TUESDAY...DUE TO A BIT DRIER AIR ALOFT. TAFS AT THIS TIME HAVE ON VCTS OR JUST CB CLOUDS MENTIONED. WINDS WILL REMAIN LIGHT ACROSS THE AREA...BUT WILL FAVOR THE EAST IN THE AFTERNOON...WHILE AN ONSHORE SEA BREEZE WIND OF 5-10 MPH IS EXPECTED TO SET UP THIS AFTERNOON. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
