NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 28, 2:06 PM EST, 1 hour 36 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL 306 PM EDT FRI JUL 28 2006 .SYNOPSIS...THE BERMUDA RIDGE IS FIRMLY ENTRENCHED ACROSS THE GULF STATES WITH ITS AXIS VERY NEAR THE GULF COAST. YET ANOTHER SCORCHER IS IN PROGRESS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON WITH MOST INLAND AREAS IN THE MID TO UPPER 90S AND RISING AT 2 PM EDT. UNOFFICIALLY, IT HAS ALREADY REACHED 100 IN TOWN HERE IN THE CAPITAL CITY, BUT NOT AT THE TLH ASOS. REGIONAL RADARS SHOW CONVECTION FIRING WELL TO OUR NW IN NW AL, AND WELL TO THE SE OVER THE WRN FL PENINSULA. ISOLATED TS HAVE ALSO DEVELOPED OVER IN SE GA AND NE FL, AND THESE ARE HEADED OUR WAY. && .SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SUN NIGHT. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE A FEW MORE STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS THIS EVENING ACROSS OUR ERN ZONES LIKE LAST NIGHT. WE HAVE CHANCE POPS THERE, WITH SLIGHT CHANCE FURTHER W. THE RIDGE AXIS WILL SLIP SWD OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS AND THIS WOULD WARRANT HIGHER POPS AND LOWER TEMPS. WE HAVE TRENDED IN THIS DIRECTION, BUT NOTE QUITE A DIFFERENCE IN THE MET AND MAV GUIDANCE FOR SAT. WE FAVORED THE WETTER MAV IN THE BLEND WHICH WAS CLOSER TO THE INHERITED FORECAST. BY SUN, THE MODELS ARE IN BETTER AGREEMENT THAT THE RIDGE AXIS WILL BE SOLIDLY S OF THE AREA, WITH A VORT LOBE SETTLING SWD ACROSS THE AREA. LIKELY POPS WERE USED FOR MOST AREAS. .LONG TERM...MON THROUGH FRI. THE GFS AND ECMWF FORECAST THE SURFACE BERMUDA RIDGE TO REMAIN NEAR OR JUST SOUTH OF THE REGION THROUGH THE PERIOD. BOTH MODELS MAINTAIN SOMEWHAT LOWER 500 MB HEIGHTS OVER THE AREA AS THIS REGION WILL BE WELL SOUTH OF A STRONG HIGH PRESSURE CENTER. THEY ALSO MAINTAIN AN AREA OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE ACROSS THE REGION...THOUGH THE GFS CONTINUES TO LOOK WETTER THAN THE ECMWF. THIS PATTERN SHOULD YIELD A TYPICAL SUMMERTIME PATTERN...WITH SCATTERED MAINLY AFTERNOON AND EVENING STORMS...AND NEAR-AVERAGE TEMPERATURES. && .MARINE...WITH THE CESSATION OF THE SEA BREEZE, WELL SEE ONE MORE NIGHT OF ELY FLOW BEFORE WINDS SETTLE INTO A PERSISTENT ONSHORE FLOW PATTERN FOR THE NEXT 5 DAYS. WINDS AND SEAS WILL CONTINUE TO BE ENHANCED WITHIN THE SEA BREEZE CIRCULATION EACH AFTERNOON WITHIN ABOUT 10 NM OF THE COAST. && .AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS FCST THRU THE PERIOD. ISOLD-WDLY SCT SHRA/TS WILL DEVELOP THIS AFTN ACCOMPANIED BY POSSIBLE MVFR-IFR VSBY/CIGS...MAINLY ALONG/E OF A LINE FROM VLD TO 40J...AS WELL AS TWEB ROUTE 117. INCLUDED SCT050CB FOR TLH AND VLD UNTIL 02Z. EXPECT VARIABLE WINDS AROUND 5 KTS...BECOMING SLY 5-10 KTS THIS AFTN. WINDS WILL BECOME LIGHT/VARIABLE LATER THIS EVENING. && .FIRE WEATHER...THE RH DIPPED BELOW 40 PERCENT AS OF 18Z TODAY OVER PARTS OF N FL, SO WE WILL GET MARGINAL DURATIONS IN SOME AREAS ONCE AGAIN TODAY. THINK THE START IS LATE ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE ISSUING A RED FLAG WARNING AT THIS TIME. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

THIS WILL LIKELY OCCUR AGAIN TODAY...WITH THE MAIN THREAT FOR LARGE HAIL AND WIND DAMAGE NEAR AND EAST OF A LINE FROM TALLAHASSEE FLORIDA...TO LAKELAND GEORGIA.

HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL ONCE AGAIN REACH 95 TO 99 DEGREES. THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY WILL BE RATHER LOW THIS AFTERNOON SO THE HEAT INDEX WILL NOT BE MUCH HIGHER THAN THE ACTUAL AIR TEMPERATURE. HOWEVER...NORMAL PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO GUARD AGAINST HEAT STRESS. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... RAIN CHANCES WILL INCREASE THIS WEEKEND AS AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE DEVELOPS OVER THE AREA AND INTERACTS WITH A MOIST UNSTABLE AIRMASS. RAIN CHANCES WILL GRADUALLY RETURN TO NORMAL NEXT WEEK. WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER OR FLOODING IS NOT EXPECTED...BUT A FEW STORMS COULD BRIEFLY APPROACH SEVERE LEVELS. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
