AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL 230 PM EDT WED JUN 25 2008 .SYNOPSIS... AT 2 PM EDT...SHOWED SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SE ALA AND ESPECIALLY GA ZONES AND ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS DIXIE COUNTY. A FEW STORMS HAVE BEEN STRONG WITH WINDS TO 40 MPH AND POSSIBLY SMALL HAIL. AT UPPER LEVELS... LOOKING AT THE BIG PIX...MAIN ACTION IN NRN STREAM WITH TROUGHS, ONE JUST OFF PAC NW AND ANOTHER OFF NE COAST WITH STRONG WESTERLIES IN BETWEEN WITH EMBEDDED SHORTWAVES ACROSS SRN CANADA/NRN MOST U.S.. LARGE SCALE PATTERN WILL AMPLIFY NEXT FEW DAYS AS PAC TROUGH MOVES ONSHORE TONIGHT GENERATING SEVERAL STRONGER SHORTWAVES THAT ROLL EWD ACROSS NRN TIER STATES. SRN STREAM DOMINATED BY SW DESERT HIGH... WEAK TROFFING WRN GULF AND RIDGING ACROSS ERN GULF/WRN ATLC. BY SATURDAY...STRONG RIDGE OVER WRN CONUS WITH TODAYS PAC TROF DEEPENING OVER GREAT LAKES REGION AND BY SUNDAY...TROF DEEPENS DOWN OVER SE CONUS PROVING INCREASING UPPER DYNAMICS FOR CWA. CLOSER TO HOME...AREA LOCATED BETWEEN TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN GULF AND SFC-H5 RIDGE OVER THE EASTERN GULF INTO THE WRN ATLC. RIDGE APPEARS TO BE INCHING WWD. AS EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR LOOP...THIS MEANS THAT A PLUME OF TROPICAL MOISTURE EMANATING IN GULF OF MEX WILL STREAM UP EASTERN SIDE OF TROUGH AND ACROSS CWA. ON THURSDAY...LIGHT SW STEERING FLOW PERSISTS AS CWA LOCATED BETWEEN A WEAK 500 MB TROUGH OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AND THE BERMUDA HIGH CENTERED NORTHEAST OF THE BAHAMAS. THIS FLOW WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY MOIST INTO FRIDAY AS IT TAPS DEEP LAYER MOISTURE FROM THE TROPICS. ON FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY...MEAN RIDGE AXIS SHIFTS SWD TO N/CNTRL FLA WITH DEEP LYR LIGHT-MDT WSW FLOW PREVAILING LOCALLY ON FRIDAY PUSHING CONVECTION FOCUS EWD AND MODERATE WNW FLOW ON SATURDAY SHUNTING PRECIP ESE. ADDITIONAL CLOUDS AND RAIN WILL HOPEFULLY RETURN CWA TO NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND NORMAL OR ABOVE NORMAL AFTERNOON RAINFALL PATTERNS. AT LOWER LEVELS... LOOKING AT THE BIG PIX...SURFACE LOW EXITING NE MINN AND MOVE NEWD INTO WRN ONTARIO WITH TRAILING FRONT FROM MN THRU IA AND WI WILL BE FOCUS FOR REST OF THIS AFTERNOONS AND EVENINGS CONVECTION. AS ABOVE PAC TROF MOVES SE AND DEEPENS THRU WEEKEND... FRONT EVENTUALLY DROPS SOUTH TO CNTRL ALA/GA BY LATE SUNDAY PROVIDING FOCUS FOR STORMS. CLOSER TO HOME...HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE FROM THE BAHAMAS TO ACROSS CWA AND WWD TO MOBILE AL...AND A QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT ROUGHLY EXTENDING FROM ERN SC THRU MONTGOMERY AL. INCREASING CONVECTION/ OUTFLOWS DEVELOPED AHEAD OF BOUNDARY DURING AFTERNOON AND DROPPED SOUTH INTO SE ALA/GA ZONES. BY LATE TONIGHT...FRONT WILL APPROACH NRN CWA...ESPECIALLY IN GA AND THEN STALL AND BEGIN TO DISSIPATE AND EVENTUALLY WASH OUT OVERNIGHT. STILL DEEPER LAYER MOISTURE WILL INCREASE AS REFLECTED IN AREA TIME HEIGHT X-SECTIONS AND MODEL SOUNDINGS. I.E. GFS TAE SOUNDING WITH 1.65 IN PWAT AT 00Z THU INCREASING TO 1.88 IN PWAT AT 00Z SAT. && .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY) SHORT TERM WILL SHOW INCREASING DEEP LYR MOISTURE..INCREASING CLOUDS AND RAIN WITH STEERING FLOW VEERING A LITTLE EACH DAY. SO MAX TEMPS DIP A LITTLE EACH DAY. POP FORECAST WILL LARGELY FOCUS ON LOCAL SEA BREEZE CLIMO MERGED WITH GFS MODEL BLEND. MODEL TEMPS VERY CLOSE THRU 1ST 3 PERIODS...THEN GFS A LITTLE WARMER NRN ZONES. TONIGHT...WILL USE A THIS EVENING GROUP TO ACCOUNT FOR SCT-LOW LIKELY CONVECTION DUE TO COMBO OF OLD OUTFLOWS FROM BOUNDARY N OF CWA AND SEA BREEZE INTERACTIONS. SOME STORMS WILL BE STRONG TO POSSIBLY PULSE SEVERE AND GIVEN WEAK STEERING FLOW PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. THEN...SOME CONVECTION WILL LINGER UNTIL MIDNIGHT. INLAND TEMPS REMAIN AROUND 70. PATCHY FOG AGAIN LIKELY ESPECIALLY EAST OF APALACHICOLA RIVER. THURSDAY...UNDER INCREASING CLOUDS MAX TEMPS SLIP TO LOW 90S. LIGHT AND VRBL OR LIGHT SSW STEERING FLOW WILL ENCOURAGE SEABREEZE DEVELOPMENT AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW EQUILIBRIUM LEVEL ABOVE 42K SO WILL ENCOURAGE TALL STORMS...PLUS WET BULB 3K BELOW FZ-LEVEL IMPLIES THAT SOME STORMS MAY AGAIN BE STRONG TO ISOLD SEVERE. WILL GO WITH S-N 50-30 PCT POP GRADIENT AND INCLUDE THAT SOME STORMS MAY BE STRONG. FRIDAY...LIGHT TO MODERATE WSW STEERING FLOW. LOW LIKELY POPS ACROSS CWA. MAX TEMPS SLIP TO AROUND 90. SATURDAY...MODERATE WLY STEERING FLOW. HI SCT ALONG THE COAST OTHERWISE HI LIKELY POPS. MAX TEMPS SLIP TO UPPER 80S. .LONG TERM... (SAT NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY) THE EXTENDED BEGINS WITH CONTINUED DEEP LAYER MOISTURE COMING OUT OF THE TROPICS AND NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND NORMAL OR ABOVE NORMAL AFTERNOON RAINFALL PATTERNS. BOTH THE GFS AND EURO AGREE THAT THE ATLANTIC RIDGE AXIS WILL BE SITUATED TO OUR SOUTH WITH LOW-LEVEL SOUTHWEST TO WESTERLY FLOW THROUGH THE PERIOD. OTHER FEATURES SHOW A BIG UPPER HIGH SETTLED INTO THE DESERT SOUTHWEST AND A VIGOROUS SHORT WAVE COMING OUR OF CANADA. ON SATURDAY NIGHT...THE GFS SHOWS THE SHORT WAVE IN THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES. THE EURO IS A LITTLE SLOWER. BY MONDAY...THE SHORT WAVE HAS DUG OUT A DEEP TROUGH ACROSS THE EASTERN U.S. AND IS SOMEWHAT LINED UP WITH A TROUGH IN THE GULF OF MEXICO. THIS INCREASES THE AMPLITUDE OF THE RIDGE IN THE WEST AS WELL AS THE RIDGE OFF THE ATLANTIC SEABOARD. A COLD FRONT PUSHES ITS WAY INTO NORTHERN GEORGIA FOCUSING MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY IN OUR REGION. COUPLED WITH FAVORABLE UPPER AIR PATTERN...ALL THIS POINTS TO AN ACTIVE PERIOD WITH THE WEEKEND AND INTO THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK PROBABLY BEING THE MOST ACTIVE. DRIER AIR SHOULD FILTER IN LATE ON TUESDAY AND INTO WEDNESDAY. && .AVIATION...ISOLD SHRA/TSRA WHICH HAVE DEVELOPED OVER PORTIONS OF SRN AL/GA WILL BECOME MORE NUMEROUS AS THE AFTERNOON PROGRESSES. ALSO, THE SEA BREEZE WILL BECOME ACTIVE OVER THE INLAND FL PANHANDLE AND BIG BEND WITH ISOLD-SCT TSRA. HAVE TEMPO GROUPS FOR MVFR CIGS/IFR VSBYS AND GUSTY WINDS IN TSRA FOR ALL EXCEPT PFN. OUTSIDE THE TSRA, EXPECT VFR AND S-SWLY 5-10 KTS. CONVECTION WILL BEGIN TO EBB AND EVENTUALLY DISSIPATE A FEW HOURS AFTER SUNSET, WITH RESIDUAL MID/HIGH CLOUDS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR PATCHY FOG WITH MVFR VSBYS AT ABY, TLH AND VLD, WITH IFR VSBY AT VLD. && .MARINE...WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE ABOUT AS LOW AS THEY CAN GET THROUGH FRIDAY AS THE COASTAL WATERS REMAIN NEAR A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE AXIS. && .FIRE WEATHER...INCREASING MOISTURE WILL PRECLUDE FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS THROUGH THE END OF THE WORK WEEK AND INTO THE WEEKEND. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
