NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 30, 1:48 PM CST, 1 hour 19 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL 348 PM EDT SAT JUN 30 2007 .SYNOPSIS... THE 17 UTC REGIONAL SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A WAVY FRONTAL SYSTEM FROM OK...THROUGH TN...TO THE NC COAST. A WEAK LOW PRESSURE TROUGH CONTINUES ACROSS SOUTHWEST GA AND THE FL BIG BEND...SEPARATING LIGHT NW WINDS TO THE WEST FROM LIGHT S WINDS TO THE EAST. VAPOR IMAGERY AND UPPER AIR OBSERVATIONS SHOW A RIDGE IN THE MAIN WESTERLIES OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS...AND TROUGHS ON EITHER SIDE OF THIS RIDGE. SOUTH OF THE MAIN BRANCH OF WESTERLIES...THERE IS WEAK TROUGHING OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND WESTERN GULF...AND RIDGING OVER THE SOUTHEAST. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ERUPTED OVER OUR AREA...WITH SEVERAL HAIL REPORTS RANGING FROM PEA TO QUARTER SIZE RECEIVED FROM RESIDENTS AND SPOTTERS IN THE TALLAHASSEE AREA. THE MODIFIED 12 UTC KTAE SOUNDING (SURFACE T/TD OF 95/68) HAS A MLCAPE OF 2600 J/KG...WITH A GOOD PORTION OF THIS CAPE IN THE HAIL GROWTH ZONE ALOFT. THERE IS ALSO A GOOD WET MICROBURST POTENTIAL GIVEN THE STEEP VERTICAL THETA-E GRADIENT. FOR THIS REASON THE SPC ISSUED A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH UNTIL EARLY THIS EVENING OVER MUCH OF OUR AREA. THE WEAK VERTICAL WIND SHEAR WILL PREVENT STORM ORGANIZATION...SO ANY SEVERE STORMS WILL TEND TO BE SHORT-LIVED AND MOST LIKELY ON THE LOWER END OF THE SEVERE SPECTRUM (58 MPH WIND GUSTS AND PENNY TO QUARTER SIZE HAIL). && .SHORT TERM... (TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY) WE EXPECT THE THUNDERSTORMS TO RAPIDLY DIMINISH BY SUNSET AS THERE IS NO LARGE SCALE Q-G FORCING AND THE ATMOSPHERE WILL QUICKLY LOSE MUCH OF ITS CAPE. IN FACT...VERY LITTLE LARGE SCALE FORCING IS EXPECTED THROUGH TUESDAY...DESPITE THE APPROACHING AFOREMENTIONED COLD FRONT. HOWEVER...RAIN CHANCES WILL BE MUCH BETTER THAN THEY HAVE BEEN IN SOME TIME DUE TO IMPROVING DEEP LAYER MOISTURE. WE EXPECT SUNDAY TO BE SIMILAR TO TODAY WITH A 30 TO 40 PERCENT CHANCE POP...AS THE LIGHT NW FLOW FROM 1000-700MB PINS THE SEA BREEZE FRONT NEAR THE COAST AND ADDITIONAL STORMS DEVELOP OVER GA AND AL. RAIN CHANCES WILL INCREASE INTO THE 50-60 PERCENT RANGE MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS ABUNDANT DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WILL BE IN PLACE AHEAD OF THE WEAK FRONTAL SYSTEM THAT IS PRESENTLY WELL TO OUR NORTH. .LONG TERM... (WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY) LINGERING MOISTURE FROM THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS IN THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY KEEPING POPS IN THE FORECAST. THE NEXT IN A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES RIDING AROUND THE BASE OF THE MEAN EAST COAST TROF DROPS INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. WHILE LATER RUNS IN THE GFS INDICATE THIS FEATURE MIGHT SCOUR OUT MUCH OF THE MOISTURE ACROSS THE GULF COAST...I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE ANOTHER BOUNDARY WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE IT THAT FAR SOUTH. WOULD PREFER TO SEE FURTHER RUNS OF THE GFS THAT DEPICT A CLEARING TREND BY THE UPCOMING WEEKEND BEFORE GOING WITH IT. WILL KEEP MID RANGE CHANCE POPS IN THE FORECAST THROUGH THURSDAY BEFORE CUTTING BACK SLIGHTLY ON FRIDAY. TEMPS SHOULD REMAIN JUST AT OR SLIGHTLY BELOW CLIMO THROUGH THE PERIOD. && .AVIATION... HAVE ADJUSTED THE TEMPO GROUPS FOR AFTERNOON/EVENING CONVECTION AT ALL TAF SITES. SOME STORMS MAY BECOME STRONG TO SEVERE OVER SE AL AND SW/SC GA. HOWEVER...THE LIKELIHOOD OF A SEVERE STORM AT THE TAF SITES IS LOW BUT DID GO WITH MORE PESSIMISTIC TEMPO GROUPS FOR DHN...ABY AND VLD SHOWING GUSTS TO 35 KTS AND IFR VSBYS. OTHERWISE...PREVAILING VFR THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. && .MARINE... WINDS AND SEAS WILL REMAIN VERY LOW DUE TO THE WEAK PRESSURE GRADIENT. && .FIRE WEATHER... RED FLAG CONDITIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED THROUGH AT LEAST THE FIRST PART OF THE WORK WEEK. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
