NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Apr 22, 1:44 AM EST, 5 hours 46 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL 244 AM EDT SAT APR 22 2006 .SYNOPSIS...A COUPLE OF CONVECTIVE WATCHES HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR OUR WRN ZONES DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. THE CONVECTION HAS BEGUN TO ORGANIZE INTO TWO LINEAR BANDS. A POTENT SHORT WAVE TROUGH IS PUSHING ACROSS THE DEEP S AND THIS WILL HELP TO FORCE THE CONVECTION EWD AHEAD OF A FRONTAL SYSTEM. LAPSE RATES ARE STEEP AND THERE IS SUFFICIENT DRY AIR ALOFT TO PRODUCE A THREAT FOR BOTH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. THE WET BULB ZERO HEIGHT ON THE 00Z KTAE SOUNDING WAS BELOW 10 KFT, WITH AN LI LESS THAN -6 AND A CAPE NEAR 1900 J/KG. && .SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH MON. ZONES WILL BE HELD UNTIL 4 AM EDT, OR AT LEAST UNTIL SUCH A TIME AS A DECISION HAS BEEN MADE ABOUT CANCELING OR EXTENDING THE SEVERE TS WATCH FOR OUR NW ZONES. THE EXPIRATION TIME FOR THE WATCH LOOKS WELL TIMED FOR OUR SE AL ZONES, BUT ACTIVITY WILL LINGER WELL PAST 4 AM IN SW GA. THE LATEST DAY 1 OUTLOOK FROM SPC KEEPS THE ERN 1/2 OF THE FORECAST AREA IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE AFTER 12Z. POPS WILL BE IN THE LIKELY CATEGORY FOR THESE AREAS FOR TODAY, BUT WE WILL INCLUDE WORDING FOR THE ONGOING EARLY MORNING STUFF AS WELL FURTHER W. ONCE THE FRONTAL SYSTEM MOVES E OF THE AREA, MUCH DRIER AIR WILL FILTER IN. MIN TEMPS TONIGHT WILL BE LOWER THAN THEY HAVE BEEN IN ABOUT 5 DAYS, BUT THE DRY AIRMASS WILL ALLOW THE HEAT TO RETURN FOR SUN WITH MAX TEMPS NEAR 90 ACROSS MOST INLAND AREAS. ONSHORE FLOW WILL KEEP THINGS COOLER FOR THE COASTAL COUNTIES. MON SHOULD BE A CARBON COPY OF SUN. .LONG TERM...MON NIGHT THROUGH SAT. THE NEXT FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL SAG SEWD ACROSS THE SERN STATES TUE NIGHT INTO WED. THIS FRONT SHOULD BE ACCOMPANIED BY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. THE FRONT WILL SLOW DOWN AND MAY EVEN STALL OVER OUR ZONES WED NIGHT, SO WEVE KEPT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN THERE FOR THAT PERIOD AND LINGERING INTO THU FOR THE SERN 1/2 OF THE FORECAST AREA. NEXT FRI AND SAT LOOK DRY AND PLEASANT. && .MARINE...WINDS AND SEAS WILL INCREASE TODAY AHEAD OF THE FRONT, BUT SHOULD REMAIN BELOW CAUTION CONDITIONS, AT LEAST OUTSIDE OF ANY THUNDERSTORMS. WINDS AND SEAS WILL THEN SUBSIDE TONIGHT AND REMAIN LOW THROUGH THE WEEKEND BEFORE INCREASE DURING THE NEXT WORK WEAK AHEAD OF THE NEXT FRONT. AGAIN, CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW CAUTION DURING THIS PERIOD. && .AVIATION...A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL SPREAD FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE REGION IN ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT. SOME OF THE STORMS MAY BE SEVERE THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON. THUNDERSTORMS WILL TEMPORARILY REDUCE VISIBILITIES AND CEILINGS AT EACH TAF SITES...POSSIBLY BELOW IFR CRITERIA IN THE HEAVIER DOWNPOURS. EXPECT IMPROVING CONDITIONS FROM WEST TO EAST IN THE WAKE OF THE LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS... ESPECIALLY IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT AS IT PASSES LATE TODAY INTO THE EVENING. && .FIRE WEATHER...CONSIDERING THE PERFORMANCE IF THE MOS DEW POINTS THIS SPRING (WAY TOO HIGH), WE WENT WITH THE DRIEST GUIDANCE FOR SUN. THIS SUPPORTS A FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR OUR FL ZONES. WE ALSO NOTED THAT THE KBDI HAS FINALLY CREPT UP TO 500+ OVER SE AL. WE THEREFORE NEED TO BEGIN CONSIDERING RH AND WIND THERE FOR FIRE WEATHER PURPOSES. ANY OCCURRENCE OF RH LESS THAN 30 PERCENT CONCURRENT WITH SUSTAINED 20-FOOT WINDS OF 10 MPH OR GREATER WOULD RESULT IN RED FLAG CONDITIONS THERE. THE RH CRITERIA SHOULD BE NO PROBLEM. WINDS WILL BE BORDERLINE, BUT CLOSE ENOUGH TO PUT THESE FIVE ZONES INTO A WATCH. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TODAY OVER SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL GEORGIA AND PARTS OF THE FLORIDA BIG BEND. WHILE CONVECTION HAS DIMINISHED IN INTENSITY DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS ALONG WITH THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT...IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOME REGENERATION WILL OCCUR WITH DAYTIME HEATING AS A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVES ACROSS THE AREA. THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE HAIL AND STRONG THUNDERSTORM WIND GUSTS. THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL END FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE AREA AS THE DAY PROGRESSES...LINGERING INTO THE EVENING HOURS OVER THE EASTERN BIG BEND. THERE IS A MODERATE RISK FOR RIP CURRENTS TODAY ALONG THE FLORIDA BIG BEND AND PANHANDLE BEACHES. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. DRY AND HOT WEATHER WILL RETURN ON SUNDAY. LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY AND DRY FUELS WILL ENHANCE THE SPREAD OF ANY WILDFIRES. THE NEXT FRONT WILL SAG SOUTHWARD INTO THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY AND WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. DRY WEATHER WILL RETURN FOR THE END OF THE WEEK. .SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT... GENERAL SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED.
