AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL 354 PM CDT SAT JUN 11 2011 .SHORT TERM [TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT]...NAM AND GFS SOUNDINGS INDICATE LINGERING AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING THUNDERSTORMS COULD BRING STRONG GUSTY WIND AS OUTFLOW GUSTS FROM 35-45 MPH AND SMALL HAIL. CANNOT RULE OUT A FEW BECOMING BRIEFLY SEVERE WITH DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH AND/OR SMALL HAIL. TODAY'S 12Z MOS TEMPERATURE GUIDANCE APPEARS TO HAVE GOTTEN NEAR ZERO BIAS ON DAYTIME HIGHS AND GIVEN LITTLE CHG IN THE ENVIRONMENT TODAY...WILL LEAN TO MOS FOR THE MOMENT. POPS LOOK RATHER LOW FOR THE MESOSCALE SITUATION SO WE RAISED THEM BY ABOUT 20 TO 30 PERCENT FOR THE SEABREEZE AND THAT HELPS MATCH NEIGHBORS AS WELL. /77 .LONG TERM [TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY]...NO CHANGES. AN UPPER TROUGH SITUATED FROM THE SOUTHWEST GULF OF MEXICO TO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST THROUGH MIDWEEK. AN UPPER HIGH BUILDING OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS WILL PUSH INTO THE NORTHEAST GULF AND A STRONG UPPER LOW MOVES OFF NOVA SCOTIA INTO THE GRAND BANKS. IT SHOWS A SMALL PROPENSITY TO DRAG A FRONT THROUGH THIS AREA ACCOMPANIED BY A WEAK SURFACE HIGH IN THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF. ANOTHER COLD FRONT APPROACHING THE FORECAST AREA FROM THE NORTH OVERNIGHT FRIDAY MOVES INTO THE FORECAST AREA ON SUNDAY AND THEN STALLS. /77 WILL KEEP ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST THROUGH ALL FORECAST PERIODS...MAINLY DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS. PRECIPITABLE WATER OVER THE AREA REMAINING BETWEEN 1.5 AND 2.0 INCHES THROUGH THE PERIOD SUGGEST THAT SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BRING PERIODS OF LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN ESPECIALLY SINCE STORM MOTION IS EXPECTED TO BE LESS THEN 15 MPH. NO CHANGES TO TEMPERATURES WE HAVE. HIGHS CONTINUE ABOVE NORMAL...REACHING THE MID 90S INLAND AREAS AND LOWER 90S COASTAL SECTIONS. LOW TEMPERATURES EACH NIGHT WILL FALL INTO THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S INLAND AREAS AND THE MID 70S COASTAL SECTIONS. && .AVIATION (11/18Z AND 12/00Z TAF ISSUANCES)...CB FCST WITH TSRA IN THE VCTY INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS...WITH TEMPO IFR CONDITIONS FOR TSTMS AT TAF SITES LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.

THIS WILL RESULT IN A CONTINUED LIGHT WIND FLOW OVER THE MARINE AREA INTO THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK...WITH A SOUTHWESTERLY DIRECTION BEING THE PRIMARY DIRECTION. LITTLE CHANGE IN SEAS EXPECTED. 12/DS && .FIRE WEATHER...HIGHS IN THE LOW TO MID 90S AND DEEP MIXING...WITH MIXING HEIGHT EXCEEDING 10000 FEET AND DISPERSION EXCEEDING 120...WILL BRING DRY AIR ALOFT MIXING DOWN TO THE SURFACE SUNDAY AFTERNOON. SUNDAY AFTERNOON RH WILL THEREFORE BE IN THE UPPER 30S AWAY FROM THE COAST BUT HIGHER NEAR SHORE DUE TO DEVELOPING CONVECTION ALONG THE AFTERNOON SEA BREEZE.
