AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL 943 AM CDT TUE JUN 12 2007 .UPDATED...MORNING UPPER AIR MAP ANALYSIS SHOWS AN UPPER RIDGE STRETCHING FROM TEXAS INTO THE PLAINS WHILE AN UPPER TROF WAS DIGGING SOUTHWARD OVER THE EASTERN UNITED STATES. IN THE LOWER LEVELS...A WEAK CYCLONIC CURVATURE IN THE WINDS WAS NOTED OVER THE SOUTHEAST...WHICH HAS FORMED IN RESPONSE TO THE LOWER HEIGHTS ALOFT MOVING IN FROM THE NORTH. AT THE BASE OF THE UPPER TROF...FORECASTERS ANTICIPATE A SOUTHWARD MOVING...HEALTHY MID LEVEL SHEAR ZONE OF 10 TO 20 UNITS TO INCREASE THE SYNOPTIC SCALE FORCING IN A MOIST AND DESTABILIZING AIRMASS TODAY. TWO MODIFIED SOUNDING APPROACHES WERE CONSIDERED TODAY USING THE 12Z ANALYSIS OF BMX FOR GZH AND LIX FOR MOB...RESPECTIVELY. AFTER MODIFYING AND LIFTING THE MOST UNSTABLE PARCEL FOR FORECAST HIGHS AND EXPECTED BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE...WET MICROBURST RISK HAS INCREASED TO HIGH OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA AND MODERATE OVER THE WESTERN HALF. THIS MEANS...THAT THUNDERSTORMS THAT FORM TODAY WILL BE EFFICIENT WIND PRODUCERS WITH BRIEF WIND GUSTS FROM 35 TO 45 MPH VERY POSSIBLE. THERE MAY BE INSTANCES OF A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH DAMAGING WINDS THE MAIN THREAT ALONG WITH HAIL. THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER IN NORMAN OKLAHOMA HAS OUTLOOKED THE AREA UNDER A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER...EAST OF A LINE FROM CAMDEN TO ATMORE TO GULF SHORES ALABAMA. /10 ...............PREVIOUS DISCUSSION............................. .SHORT TERM...AT THE SFC A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WAS NOTED OVER SOUTH CENTRAL AL AND THE WESTERN FL PANHANDLE MAINLY IN RESPONSE TO INCREASING HEIGHTS FALLS TO THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST FROM MAIN UPPER TROF. THIS LOW IS PROGGED TO DRIFT SOUTHWARD AND THEN EAST THROUGH TONIGHT AS MAIN UPPER TROF CONTINUES TO DIG OR SHIFT SOUTHWARD ALONG THE EASTERN SEABOARD. NORTH OF THE LOW A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WAS ALSO NOTED GENERALLY STRETCHING FROM EAST TO WEST ACROSS CENTRAL AL..MS AND GA. ALOFT SEVERAL SHORT WAVE TROFS WERE NOTED MOVING SSE FROM THE TN RIVER VALLEY TO THE SE CONUS...GIVING WAY TO INCREASED LIFT OF FORCING FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP. THIS PATTERN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TONIGHT BECOMING MORE DIURNALLY DRIVER LATER TODAY AFFECTING MUCH OF THE EASTERN HALF OF THE CWFA THIS AFTERNOON. AS FOR TEMPS WE WENT SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN GUIDANCE TO THE WEST MAINLY FOR THIS AFTERNOON. /32 && .LONG TERM...(WED NITE THROUGH TUE)...AS UPPER BLOCKING PATTERN CONTINUES TO BREAK DOWN AND OUR LOCAL FLOW REGIME BECOMES INCREASINGLY DOMINATED BY MID ATLC UPPER LOW...LO-LVL ANTCYC BUILDS OVER FCST AREA (ALBEIT SUBTLE)...AND SUBSIDENT PATTERN DOMINATES N CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION. UPPER FLOW PATTERN THEN BECOMES PROGRESSIVE FRI NITE AND E COAST UPPER LOW MOVES OFF INTO WRN ATLC. SIMULTANEOUSLY...BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW BEGINS TO TURN FROM NELY TO SELY BY SUN AFTERNOON WITH APPROACH OF SRN PLAINS CLOSED UPPER LOW. IN FACT...BIT OF A TROPICAL MOISTURE PLUME SURGES NWD INTO OUR REGION BY MIDDAY MONDAY. WITH TROPOS WINDS BECOMING SLY AT ALL LEVELS RAINSHOWERS IN A TROPICAL AIRMASS ARE POISED TO OCCUR BOTH MON AND TUE. THUS...A CHANCE FOR SOME BENEFICIAL RAINS WITH DEEP LAYER INTEGRATED MOISTURE FLUX INCREASING WITH THE AFOREMENTIONED MOISTURE PLUME. BY LATE TUE...INTENSIFYING SFC LOW MOVING ACROSS GRTLKS REGION WILL BE ASSOC/W A LINGERING COLD FRONT THAT TRAILS ACROSS OHIO AND LWR MS RVR VLYS. THIS FEATURE WILL LIKELY BECOME STATIONARY ON DAY 7 WELL N OF FORECAST AREA. NO DEPARTURE FROM MOS TEMPS THIS PACKAGE. DID BUMP UP POPS A TAD ON SUN AND MON DUE TO INTRODUCTION OF AFOREMENTIONED MOISTURE PLUME INTO OUR REGION. OTRW...NO CHANGES. /23 MEDLIN && .MARINE...A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE SOUTHEAST ALABAMA AND THE WESTERN FLORIDA PANHANDLE WILL DRIFT SOUTHEAST THROUGH FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE MID ATLANTIC REGION GRADUALLY BUILDS SOUTHWEST OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED NEAR THE LOW TODAY MOVING SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST TOWARDS THE COAST THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY TONIGHT. A LIGHT WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL BECOME MOSTLY EAST TO SOUTHEAST BY MIDWEEK...BECOMING WEST TO SOUTHWEST BY THE WEEKEND. /32 && .FIRE WEATHER...MINIMUM AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITIES ARE EXPECTED TO FALL INTO THE MID 30S THIS AFTERNOON...HOWEVER DURATION SHOULD BE LIMITED....ESPECIALLY WHEN AND WHERE THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP LOCALLY.

AND ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS. .DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME BETTER DEVELOPED LATER TODAY NEAR AND ALONG A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY GENERALLY LOCATED OVER NORTHERN AND EASTERN SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. DUE TO BETTER FORCING IN THE MID TO UPPER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE COMBINED WITH SUFFICIENT MOISTURE IN THE LOWER LEVELS DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH SOME OF THE STRONGER STORMS. THE BEST CHANCE FOR SEVERE WEATHER TO OCCUR WILL BE GENERALLY EAST OF THE I-65 CORRIDOR STRETCHING SOUTH TO INLAND AREAS OF THE WESTERN FLORIDA PANHANDLE. FURTHER TO THE WEST ANOTHER HOT DAY IS FORECASTED RESULTING IN HEAT INDICES RANGING FROM 100 TO 105 DEGREES DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. THE HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL ALSO ENHANCE THE WILDFIRE RISK ACROSS THE AREA. THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL DROP SIGNIFICANTLY AFTER SUNSET WHEN SURFACE TEMPERATURES COOL TO THE 70S. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY NO WIDESPREAD SEVERE OR HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... ACTIVATION OF STORM SPOTTERS AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT OFFICIALS FOR SEVERE WEATHER OPERATIONS WILL NOT BE REQUIRED THROUGH TONIGHT.
