Damaging Winds in Alabama, June 20, 2010

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL
220 PM EDT SUN JUN 20 2010

...ANOTHER STORMY LATE AFTERNOON INTO NIGHTTIME EXPECTED...

.SYNOPSIS...
DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON AND SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY...NUMEROUS
STORMS DEVELOPED ALONG THE GULF COAST SEA BREEZE ACROSS THE SE BIG
BEND. BY MID AFTERNOON...ADDITIONAL STORMS BEGAN ACROSS S/CNTRL
GA COUNTIES ALONG AND EAST OF A SURFACE TROUGH. AT 2 PM EDT..TEMPS
WERE GENERALLY AROUND 90...EXCEPT FOR NOTICEABLY COOLER ACROSS THE
STORMY SOUTHEAST BEND. DURING NEXT FEW HOURS...CONVECTION WILL
INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY AS SEABREEZE AND OUTFLOW MERGERS
OCCUR. SOME OF THESE STORMS MAY BE STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE.

AT UPPER LEVELS...
THE LARGE SCALE CONUS PATTERN HIGHLIGHTED BY WRN STATES TROUGH WITH
STRONG LOW OVER OREGON AND FLAT WLY FLOW ACROSS MOST OF REMAINING
NRN STREAM...EXCEPT FOR WEAK TROFFING OVER NE STATES. SRN STREAM
WITH DEEP LAYER RIDGING FROM AZ EWD ACROSS CNTRL GULF REGION AND SWD
INTO GULF OF MEX...AND RIDGING OVER ADJACENT ATLC. THIS YIELDS A
WEAKNESS IN BETWEEN...AND OVER LOCAL AREA...MARKED BY 850-500 MB
INVERTED TROF OVER THE EASTERN GULF TO EXTREME SOUTHEAST STATES.
THIS REFLECTED IN 12Z RAOBS. I.E. TAE WITH 2.02 INCH PWAT AND VERY
LIGHT NLY FLOW UP TO MID LEVELS.

THUS UPPER RIDGE CONTINUES TO SHIFT WEST IN LAST 24 HRS GIVING WAY
TO AREA TROUGH AND A MORE UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT. SO STILL ENOUGH
SUBSIDENCE FOR WARM TEMPERATURES BUT NOT NEARLY ENOUGH TO SUPPRESS
CONVECTION. LOCATION OF WEAKNESS AIDED BY WEAK H5 IMPULSES SHOWN ON
SATELLITE SPREADING ROUNDING THE SOUTHERN HIGH AND SPREADING ESE
TOWARDS NE GULF. DURING THE NEXT 24 HRS...WRN UPPER TROUGH WILL
MIGRATE ENE OVERSPREADING THE NORTHERN ROCKIES TONIGHT AND SW
MONTANA BY MON MORN. MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGING ANCHORED OVER S/CNTRL
U.S. WILL THEN BUILD EAST INTO THE SOUTHEAST U.S. AND FLORIDA WHILE
AREA TROUGH FILLS IN WHILE RETREATING SWWD INTO GULF OF MEX.

AT LOWER LEVELS...
LOCAL REGION HIGHLIGHTED BY WEAK LEE TROUGH FROM S/CNTRL GA TO
VCNTY APALACHICOLA CONNECTING TO LOW WEST OF TAMPA. A RIDGE AXIS WAS
LOCATED OVER N/CNTRL FL. DURING THE SHORT TERM...RIDGE AXIS WILL
DRIFT NORTH TO ACROSS NORTH FLORIDA ON MONDAY AND INTO SOUTH GEORGIA
ON TUESDAY. SO OVER THE SHORT TERM PERIOD WE WILL SEE A TRANSITION
IN THE MEAN 1000-700MB FLOW FROM LIGHT NORTH TO NORTHEAST (< 10 KTS)
LATER TODAY TO LIGHT TO MODERATE SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH (AROUND 10 KTS)
FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY RESULTING IN A RETURN TO DEEPER MOISTURE.
THIS WILL FAVOR FAIRLY UNIFORM CHANCE TO LIKELY POPS ACROSS THE
TRI-STATE REGION WITH COASTAL COUNTIES FOR AFTERNOON AND INLAND
COUNTIES FOR EVENING STORMS. MID LEVEL IMPULSES WILL CONTINUE TO
DROP SE AROUND LARGE UPPER HIGH TO THE WEST ENHANCING THE STORMS AND
SOME WILL PROBABLY BE STRONG TO SEVERE AGAIN. LIGHT WINDS WILL AGAIN
FAVOR HEAVY RAIN. ON WED...A TROPICAL WAVE WILL APPROACH THE S
PORTION OF THE FL PENINSULA. FLOW SHIFTS TO MODERATE ELY WITH DRYING
OUT OF LOCAL AIRMASS. WITH THE AREA IS ON THE W SIDE OF THE
WAVE...POPS WILL BE A LOWER THAN NORMAL.

.SHORT TERM...THIS EVENING INTO WEDNESDAY..
TONIGHT...SEA BREEZE CLIMATOLOGY FAVORS HIGHER POPS OVER OUR ERNMOST
ZONES WHERE LOCATION OF DEEPER MOISTURE WILL BE FOUND. AS PER RECENT
DAYS AND PER LOCAL WRF 4KM MODEL...GULF SEABREEZE INDUCED CONVECTION
DURING LATE AFTN/EARLY EVE WILL INTERACT WITH ADDITIONAL CONVECTION
DEVELOPING WITH E COAST SEA BREEZE AND IN TURN INTERACT WITH
SURFACE TROUGH. THIS CONVECTION WILL PUSH SWWD TO COAST AT NIGHT AND
OFFSHORE OVERNIGHT. SEABREEZE/OUTFLOW CLASHES ALONG AND EAST OFF
SURFACE TROUGH WILL SERVE AS FOCUS OF CONVECTION ESPECIALLY NEAR
I-75 THIS EVE. THIS WILL BE AIDED BY NEXT SHORTWAVE/VORT LOBE
EXTENDING NE-SE AND BISECTING CWA AT 2 PM EDT AND EXPECTED TO
MOVE ACROSS REST OF CWA INTO THIS EVE.

WITH STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND DECENT INSTABILITY BY
AFTERNOON...WET DOWNBURSTS CAPABLE OF DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE
POSSIBLE INTO AT LEAST MID EVE. SIMILAR TO THE PAST FEW DAYS.
PWATS REMAIN HIGH. A WEAK STEERING FLOW WILL FAVOR SLOW MOVING
STORMS WHICH WILL CONTINUE THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL...ALONG WITH FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES AND GUSTY WINDS
ESPECIALLY NEAR COAST AND ADJACENT WATERS. WILL GO WITH 0-40 PCT N-S
POP GRADIENT. LOWS OVERNIGHT WILL BE IN THE LOW TO MID 70S. RESIDUAL
MOISTURE COMBINED WITH HIGH DEW POINTS/CALM WINDS WILL FAVOR
DEVELOPING FOG.

MONDAY...LIGHT ESE STEERING FLOW. 40-70 NW-SE POP GRADIENT. INLAND
HIGHS FROM AROUND 90 SE BIG BEND TO 95 SE ALA/SW GA.

TUESDAY...MODERATE SSE FLOW. 30-60 POP GRADIENT.

WEDNESDAY...MODERATE ELY FLOW. 20-30 PCT POP GRADIENT.

&&

.LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)...A BROAD UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE WILL DOMINATE THE TRI-STATE AREA THROUGH THE PERIOD...WITH
TROUGHS ANCHORED ALONG THE WEST COAST AND OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC.
THE LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL REMAIN SOUTHEAST...AND CONVECTION WILL BE
PRIMARILY DRIVEN BY AFTERNOON SEABREEZES INTERACTING WITH THE
SYNOPTIC FLOW. THE EURO CONTINUES TO BE SOMEWHAT DRIER THAN THE GFS.
HOWEVER...A THE FEATURE TO WATCH WILL BE A TROPICAL WAVE...CURRENTLY
MOVING INTO THE CENTRAL CARIBBEAN...THAT WILL REACH THE WESTERN
CARIBBEAN AND SOUTHERN GULF OF MEXICO BY THE END OF THE WEEK. THE
GFS AND EURO REMAIN CONSISTENT WITH THEIR DIFFERENCES IN HANDLING
THIS SYSTEM... WITH THE EURO REMAINING FASTER AND FURTHER
SOUTH...WHILE THE GFS CONTINUES TO BRING THE WAVE FURTHER NORTH
ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF OF MEXICO BY THE END OF
THE PERIOD. OTHERWISE... TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN ABOVE CLIMO...AND
WILL GO WITH A BLEND OF THE GFS AND EURO FOR PRECIPITATION...AND
SHOW POPS A LITTLE BELOW CLIMO.

&&

.MARINE...AS IN RECENT NIGHTS EXPECT LAND BREEZE TO PUSH LAND
CONVECTION OFFSHORE IN EVE WHICH WILL THEN MOVE ACROSS OFFSHORE
WATERS OVERNIGHT. 30-40 PCT POPS OVER WATER TONIGHT. LIGHT WINDS AND
LOW SEAS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY THIS WEEK. WINDS WILL BECOME
MODERATE WITH SLIGHTLY BUILDING SEAS BY THE MIDDLE TO LATER PART OF
THE WEEK AS THE GRADIENT TIGHTENS ACROSS THE LOCAL WATERS.

&&

.AVIATION...
CONVECTION IS OFF TO A SLIGHTLY SLOWER START THIS AFTERNOON COMPARED
TO RECENT DAYS. HOWEVER...STILL EXPECT SCATTERED TSRA ACROSS THE
AREA WITH THE BEST CHANCE OVER THE EASTERN AREA AROUND KVLD.
CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH AFTER SUNSET WITH SOME AREAS OF MVFR BR
DEVELOPING CLOSE TO DAWN. HIT KECP A LITTLE HARDER WITH MORNING BR
THIS TIME AROUND GIVEN THAT PARTICULAR LOCATION HAS SEEN IFR VSBY
FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF MORNINGS.
