AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL 247 PM EDT TUE JUN 10 2008 .SYNOPSIS... THE 17 UTC REGIONAL SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWED A WEAK PRESSURE PATTERN ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST U.S. WITH A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE ORIENTED EAST TO WEST ACROSS THE FL PENINSULA. LOCAL RADARS SHOWED SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA MAINLY ALONG THE SEA BREEZE FRONTS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS SOUTHEAST PORTIONS OF THE FL BIG BEND. THE SURFACE AIRMASS HAS BEEN DRIER THAN FORECAST (WITH DEWPOINTS DROPPING INTO THE LOWER 60S ACROSS SOUTHWEST GA)...SO THIS AREA HAS BEEN GENERALLY VOID OF STORMS SO FAR. VAPOR IMAGERY AND UPPER AIR PROFILERS SHOWED AN UPPER LEVEL LOW CENTERED OVER NORTH FL. && .SHORT TERM... (TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY) THE LARGE SCALE WEATHER PATTERN WILL BE RATHER STAGNANT OVER OUR AREA AS WE REMAIN SOUTH OF A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE AT THE 500 MB LEVEL. THE STRONG SUBSIDENCE (AND ACCOMPANYING MID LEVEL DRY AIR) WILL REMAIN WELL TO OUR NORTHEAST (NEAR THE CENTER OF A 500 MB HIGH OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST)...LEAVING OUR REGION WITH PLENTY OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP EACH DAY...MAINLY ALONG SEA BREEZE FRONTS AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARY COLLISIONS. THERE IS SOME DISAGREEMENT AMONG THE LATEST NUMERICAL GUIDANCE ABOUT THE 1000-700 MB MEAN WIND...WHICH COULD HAVE AN IMPACT ON HOW MUCH AND WHEN AFTERNOON STORMS WILL DEVELOP. FOR NOW WE WILL USE A BLEND OF THE GUIDANCE AND FORECAST A FLOW OF 5 TO 8 KT OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST. OUR POP WILL BE IN THE 40-50 PERCENT RANGE...WHICH IS A BIT ABOVE CLIMATOLOGY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR AVERAGE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. A FEW PULSE SEVERE STORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE EACH AFTERNOON AS THE SBCAPE WILL BE NEAR 2500 J/KG EACH DAY. .LONG TERM... (SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY) FORECAST TRENDS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN ACROSS NORTH AMERICA...RESULTING IN A GRADUAL RETROGRESSION OF THE STRONG HOT RIDGE THAT HAS BEEN FIRMLY ENTRENCHED OVER THE EASTERN U.S. AND ALLOWING A WEAKENING COLD FRONT TO PUSH INTO THE SOUTHEAST U.S. ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. STILL SOME DISAGREEMENT AS TO THE AMPLITUDE OF THE PATTERN...AND CONSIDERING THE TIME OF YEAR EXPECT THE FRONT TO STALL OVER OR JUST TO THE NORTH OF OUR AREA AND SLOWLY WEAKEN...AND IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SEABREEZE...TO PROVIDE AN ADDITIONAL FOCUS FOR CONVECTION INTO THE FIRST OF THE WEEK. EXPECT TEMPERATURES WILL BE NORMAL LEVELS. && .AVIATION... AN ACTIVE SEA BREEZE AIDED BY MID/UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER NORTH CENTRAL FL HAS INCREASED COVERAGE OF DEEP MOIST CONVECTION AS FORECAST. HAVE TEMPO GROUPS FOR MVFR CIGS AND MVFR-LOCAL IFR VSBYS IN TSRA THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY EVENING. ALSO, WIND GUSTS OF 30 KTS OR HIGHER WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE INVOF STRONGER TSRA. THE CONVECTION SHOULD BEGIN TO WIND DOWN BETWEEN 00Z AND 02Z THIS EVENING, FOLLOWED BY SCATTERED MAINLY HIGH CLOUDS AND LIGHT/VARIABLE WINDS. THE LATEST NAM12 SURFACE CONDENSATION PRESSURE DEFICIT PROGS INDICATE THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR MVFR-LOCAL IFR VSBYS WILL BE INVOF KVLD AROUND SUNRISE WEDNESDAY. OTHERWISE, PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS ARE FORECAST FOR WEDNESDAY MORNING. && .MARINE... LOW WINDS AND SEAS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE WEEK WITH A SURFACE RIDGE NEAR THE AREA. && .FIRE WEATHER... THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY MAY BRIEFLY DROP NEAR 35 PERCENT WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AFTERNOONS...BUT NOT LONG OR WIDESPREAD ENOUGH FOR A RED FLAG WARNING. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
