AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL 400 PM CDT TUE JUL 10 2007 .SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)...SFC RIDGE OVER THE FCST AREA TODAY WILL GRADUALLY BE PUSHED OFFSHORE OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO THROUGH THURSDAY AS UPPER TROF AND SFC REFLECTION OF BOUNDARY DRIFTS SOUTH INTO THE ALABAMA AND MISSISSIPPI. A SERIES OF WEAK MID/UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES WILL TRAVERSE EAST TO WEST ACROSS THE REGION AS WELL. THIS WILL RESULT IN A CONTINUED CHANCE FOR SHRA/TSRA EACH DAY...PRIMARILY IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. REALLY NO MAJOR CHANGES IN PATTERN TO SUGGEST CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS FCST THINKING. LOOKING FOR TYPICAL SUMMERTIME TEMPS TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE SHORT TERM...MINS IN THE LOW/MID 70S AND MAXS PRIMARILY IN THE LOW 90S WITH A FEW MID 90S SOME LOCATIONS. THE WET MICROBURST RISK FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING...LOW. /12 && .LONG TERM FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY MENTIONED ABOVE IN SHORT TERM DISCUSSION IS ADVERTISED BY LONGER RANGED MODELS TO STALL AND GRADUALLY DISSIPATE THROUGH LATE WEEK AND OVER THE UPCOMING WEEKEND...WITH SFC HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING OVER THE WHOLE OF THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES AS WELL AS THE NORTHEASTERN GULF OF MEXICO DURING THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK. THIS DECAYING FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL KEEP THE WEATHER PATTERN UNSETTLED THROUGH MUCH OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD...BUT OVERALL POPS WILL BE AROUND CLIMO NORMS FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR...AND EVEN WITH THE LOLVL FOCUS STILL EXPECTING PRIMARILY A TYPICAL SUMMER DIURNAL CONVECTIVE PATTERN. BY PERIODS END THE UPPER FLOW WILL BECOME MORE SOUTHERLY AS MID/UPPER LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS OVER THE ARK-LA-TEX AREA...ALLOWING FOR VERY HUMID AND UNSTABLE CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE. THE GENERALLY SUMMERTIME PATTERN WILL CONTINUE TO RESULT IN TYPICAL SUMMERTIME TEMPERATURES AS WELL...WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE LOW/MID 70S AND DAYTIME HIGHS IN THE LOWER 90S CONTINUING. /12 && .MARINE...SAME AS YESTERDAY...WIND WILL CONTINUE ONSHORE FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. HIGH OVER THE NORTHERN GULF WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE WEATHER PICTURE MAINTAINING THE ONSHORE WIND. DID NOT TREAT THE NEARSHORE GRIDS FOR NOCTURNAL SEABREEZE REVERSAL AS IT DID NOT PAN OUT IN THE OBS EVEN AT COASTAL AERODROMES. MOST WENT CALM OR SOUTHWEST. DID THE SAME AS YESTERDAY WITH THE SEAS...GWW FORECAST UP TO 3 FEET DURING SHORT TIME WINDS KICK UP TO 12 OR 13 KT IN GRIDS. AGAIN THE BRETSCHNEIDER SHOWS IT IS NOT LONG ENOUGH FETCH NOR DURATION TO GET SEAS MUCH HIGHER THAN 2 FEET. /77 && .FIRE WEATHER...NOT ANTICIPATING ANY HEADLINES. HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN IN PLACE FROM THE SOUTHWEST ATLANTIC ACROSS FLORIDA AND INTO THE GULF THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. MEANWHILE...A WEAK FRONT IS FORECAST TO SLIDE SOUTHEAST OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...SETTLING INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY LATE IN THE DAY WEDNESDAY AND THEN LINGER ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES. EXPECT DAILY THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTAIN FREQUENT OCCURRENCES OF LIGHTNING ALONG WITH BRIEF...ERRATIC STRONG WIND GUSTS. LOWEST DAYTIME HUMIDITY LEVELS REMAIN ABOVE CRITICAL THRESHOLDS. /12 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
