AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSONVILLE FL 920 PM EDT MON JUL 13 2009 .SHORT TERM...WELL JUST LOOKING AT THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL LARGE SCALE FEATURES...ONE WOULD SUSPECT AN EVENT MUCH LIKE THE ONES SEVERAL WEEKS AGO WHERE MCSS PRODUCED A PLETHORA OF SEVERE WEATHER. FOR THIS EVENT HOWEVER...EVEN THOUGH A STRONG AND POTENT VORT MAX DID DESCEND ON THE EASTERN SIDE OF UPPER RIDGE...ATMOSPHERE WAS MUCH MORE STABLE WITH 500 TEMPS ONLY -5C TO -6C AND THUNDERSTORMS WERE BARELY ABLE TO REACH THE STRONG CATEGORY. STILL HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY UPSTREAM WHICH MAY AFFECT THE AREA INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS BUT EVEN THIS HAS BEEN SHOWING A DECREASING INTENSITY TREND OF LATE. WILL UPDATE POPS SHORTLY TO REFLECT CURRENT DISTRIBUTION...OTHERWISE FORECAST IS ON TRACK AND NO CHANGES ARE PLANNED. && .AVIATION...VFR AT TERMINALS AT THIS TIME WITH RAIN FALLING ON MOST SITES. STILL AN OUTSIDE CHANCE OF A TERMINAL SEEING A SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM BUT FOR MOST PART CONVECTION AT TAFS HAS ENDED. HIGHEST GUST OBSERVED FROM THE THUNDERSTORMS TODAY WAS 28 KT IN GNV AND LOWEST FLIGHT COND AT LIFR WAS IN SSI AT 1/2SM IN HEAVY RAIN IN TSRA. LIGHT WINDS...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND W AND SW FLOW MAY ENABLE SOME PATCHY FOG AND LOW CIGS TO FORM. FOR NOW HAVE MVFR VIS AFTER 08Z BUT KEPT LOWER CONDS FOR GNV WHERE WINDS ARE LIGHT AND BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE IS HIGHER. ON TUE...COMBINATION OF WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO THE N OF THE AREA AND PWATS OF NEAR 2 INCHES SHOULD ENABLE A FAIRLY EARLY START TO CONVECTION. DUE TO UNCERTAINTIES WITH TSRA TIMING...HAVE PLACED TEMPO TSRA STARTING AT 17Z WITH ONLY MVFR IN RAIN FOR NOW. && .MARINE...WINDS ARE SLY AT 17G21KT OFFSHORE AT 41012 AND SEAS AROUND 2 TO NEAR 3 FT. ANTICIPATE WINDS TO CLOCK AROUND TO MORE WLY BY EARLY MORNING AS A W-E ORIENTED SFC TROUGH SETTLES SWD. MAY BUMP UP WINDS SLIGHTLY FOR THE UPDATE BUT OTHERWISE FORECAST LOOKS GOOD. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
