AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
145 PM EDT THU JUL 27 2006
.SYNOPSIS...
MID/UPPER LEVELS CHARACTERIZED BY A HIGH AMPLITUDE RIDGE W OF THE
CONTINENTAL DIVIDE...AND LOW AMPLITUDE RIDGE OVER THE SERN CONUS.
IN BETWEEN...A TROUGH REACHES FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST TO THE SRN
PLAINS. CURRENT SURFACE ANALYSIS DEPICTS A HIGH PRESSURE CENTER OVER
SERN AL/SWRN GA WITH A RIDGE EXTENDING INTO THE WRN ATLANTIC. NELY
FLOW IN THE LOW-MID LEVELS WILL BE LIGHT...ALLOWING INLAND
PENETRATION OF SEA BREEZE...HOWEVER MOISTURE RATHER SHALLOW FOR
ORGANIZED CONVECTION THIS AFTN. THE FAVORED AREA FOR ISOLATED
CONVECTION WILL BE OVER SERN PORTIONS OF OUR CWFA. AMPLE INSOLATION
WILL PUSH THE MERCURY INTO THE MID-UPPER 90S...WHICH IS NEAR-RECORD
TERRITORY FOR A FEW INLAND LOCATIONS.
&&
.SHORT TERM...
WRN CONUS SUBTROPICAL RIDGE SLOWLY MIGRATES EWD INTO THE MIDDLE OF
THE NATION THIS WEEKEND AS A TROUGH ENTERS THE PACIFIC NW. THE
PERSISTENT LONG WAVE TROUGH OVER THE ERN CONUS WEAKENS AND LIFTS
NEWD. THE BERMUDA RIDGE AXIS GRADUALLY DRIFTS TO THE NE AND BECOME
STATIONARY OVER OUR AL/GA ZONES THIS WEEKEND. CONSEQUENTLY...THE
1000-700 MB WIND WILL GRADUALLY VEER AS WELL. ON FRIDAY...THE FLOW
WILL STILL BE ENE 5-10 KTS (REGIME 2)...SIMILAR TO TODAY. DUE TO
INFLUENCE OF DEEP LAYER RIDGE AND BELOW CLIMO PWAT/CAPE...AFTN POPS
WILL BE IN THE SLIGHT CHANCE CATEGORY...BUT LOW CHANCE OVER OUR ERN
ZONES WHERE MOISTURE/INSTABILITY SLIGHTLY HIGHER. HIGH TEMPS WILL
CONTINUE ABOVE AVERAGE WITH MID-UPPER 90S. ON SATURDAY...A MORE SELY
FLOW (REGIME 1) AND INCREASE IN DEEP LAYER MOISTURE SPELLS A RETURN
TO NEAR CLIMO POPS. WITH MORE CLOUD COVER AND HIGHER PCPN
COVERAGE...TEMPS FALL BACK TO CLIMO.
.LONG TERM...
THE 00Z GFS AND ECMWF STALL THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE FORECAST
AREA THROUGH THURSDAY. BOTH MODELS ALSO CUT OFF A LARGE AREA OF DEEP
LAYER MOISTURE OVER OUR AREA DURING THIS TIME...THOUGH THE GFS IS
TYPICALLY MORE MOIST THAN THE ECMWF. FAVORABLE THERMODYNAMICS AND AN
ONSHORE LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL KEEP OUR POPS NEAR OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE
CLIMO (WHICH IS ABOUT 40 PERCENT DURING THE AFTERNOON) THRU THE
PERIOD. THE INCREASED CLOUD COVER WILL KEEP HIGH TEMPERATURES NEAR
TO SLIGHTLY BELOW AVERAGE.
&&
.MARINE...
THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AXIS WILL DOMINATE THE WATERS WITH WINDS AND
SEAS LOW THROUGH THE WEEKEND. HOWEVER...THEY WILL BE BRIEFLY HIGHER
NEAR THE COAST DURING AFTERNOON SEA BREEZE FORMATION.
&&
.AVIATION...
EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. POP
CHANCES ARE LOW ENOUGH THAT VCTS WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN THE TAFS.
ON FRIDAY...BRIEF MVFR VSBYS ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS AT DHN...ABY...AND VLD. POP CHANCES WILL REMAIN LOW AS WELL.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
DEEP MIXING OF LOWER DEW POINT AIR ALOFT TO THE SURFACE WILL CAUSE
RH VALUES TO PLUNGE TO CRITICAL LEVELS THIS AFTN FOR THE NERN FL
PANHANDLE AND THE FL BIG BEND (AWAY FROM THE COAST). SLIGHTLY HIGHER
DEW POINTS FRIDAY AFTN WILL PRECLUDE RED FLAG CONDITIONS.
