NWS Mobile, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 2, 5:30 PM CST, 1 hour 45 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL 630 PM CDT SUN JUN 2 2013 .AVIATION [03.00Z TAF ISSUANCE]...RADAR SHOWS SCATTERED TSRA ALIGNED IN AN EAST TO WEST FASHION...NORTH OF TERMINALS WITH STORMS MAINLY IN THE VICINITY OF THE MOB/BFM TERMINALS. OVERALL CIG BASES AT VFR LEVELS AT TERMINALS WITH CB/LIGHTNING ACTIVITY IMPACTING FLIGHT OPS TO THE NORTH. APPROACHING FRONT LATE TONIGHT BRINGS MVFR CIGS WITH SOME SHRA ACTIVITY. OCCASIONALLY GUSTY SOUTHERLY INFLOW INTO STORMS TO THE NORTH THIS EVENING BECOME LIGHT FROM THE NORTHWEST AND NORTH LATE TONIGHT WITH FRONTAL BOUNDARY. /10 /PREVIOUS DISCUSSION/ 337 PM CDT SUN JUN 2 2013 / ...MODERATE RISK OF DOWNBURST WINDS THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING ESPECIALLY EAST OF I-65 AND NORTH OF I-10... .NEAR TERM...[TONIGHT AND MONDAY]...A MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE OVER THE AREA TONIGHT...PUSHING A WEAK FRONT OVER THE AREA. CURRENTLY HAVE A LINE OF SHRA/TSRA FORMING ALONG I65...WITH THE TAIL END SPREADING SOUTHWESTWARD. HOW FAR WILL BE LIMITED BY HOW MUCH THE AIRMASS OVER SOUTHEAST MISS DESTABILIZES. FEEL THE FIRST PERIOD OF THE COMING FORECAST WILL START WITH SCATTERED TSRA OVER THE MAJORITY OF THE FA...EXCEPT FOR THE WESTERN QUARTER OF THE FA. AS THE WEAK FRONT COMES DOWN TONIGHT...THESE AREAS WILL SEE SOME MORE RAIN TONIGHT. FOR MONDAY...GUIDANCE IS ADVERTISING THE SURFACE FRONT STALLING NORTH OF THE GULF COAST...ROUGHLY ALONG I-65(ECMWF AND GFS) IF ONE LOOKS AT THE WIND FIELDS. THE NAM MOVES THE FRONT FARTHER SOUTHEAST...EAST OF THE FA. THE RESULT IS A DRYING OUT OF THE FA TO A CERTAIN EXTENT. HAVE LEANED TOWARDS THE MORE IN AGREEMENT GFS AND ECMWF FOR THE FORECAST. FOR THE FORECAST...THE WESTERN QUARTER IS EXPECTED TO BE RAIN FREE...WITH TEMPS AROUND TO A BIT ABOVE SEASONAL LIKELY. && .SHORT TERM...[MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY]... PERIOD BEGINS WITH ZONAL UPPER LEVEL WIND FLOW AND APPROACHING EAST TEXAS S/WAVE. IT IS THIS FEATURE THAT SERIES OF DEVELOPING SURFACE GULF LOWS ALONG A STALLED FRONT RESPONDS TO AND ARE DRAWN NORTHEASTWARD BY (MORE BELOW). BY TUESDAY MORNING...OUR REGION HAS STALLED SURFACE FRONT JUST TO OUR EAST AND LIGHT OFFSHORE FLOW DEVELOPS FORCING POTENTIAL LAND- BREEZE CONVECTION AS HIGHEST OVERNIGHT RAIN CHANCES ARE FORECAST OVER SOUTHEASTERN MARINE ZONES. ON TUESDAY...DEEP LAYER WIND FLOW PATTERN AROUND BROAD GULF LOW WILL ACT TO WRAP HIGHEST MOISTURE AXIS INTO SOUTHEAST ZONES AS SOME LOW- LEVEL LIFT OCCURS OVER PREVIOUS STALLED FRONT AND ACTS IN CONCERT WITH AFOREMENTIONED APPROACHING S/WAVE AROUND MIDDAY TO FORCE ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. FOR THIS REASON...HIGHEST RAIN CHANCES WILL BE ALONG COASTAL ZONES (EASTERLY BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW HELPS TO ADVECT DEVELOPING CELLS ALONG COAST WITH WWD COMPONENT). FOR TUESDAY EVENING...HIGH VALUES OF ABSOLUTE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE CONTINUE TO BE HEAVED IN FROM THE SOUTHEAST ENHANCING NOCTURNAL SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ONCE AGAIN OVER MARINE ZONES AND ALONG COASTAL ZONES INTO THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. SUBSIDENCE TAKES OVER IN THE WAKE OF DEPARTING UPPER S/WAVE ON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...SEA-BREEZE DEVELOPS ONCE AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...SO LEFT SCATTERED POPS MAINLY SOUTHEAST OF I-65 WITH HIGHEST VALUES ALONG COAST. AS FOR THE SURFACE WINDS...WINDS BECOME EASTERLY AND INCREASE TUESDAY NIGHT AND INTO WEDNESDAY AS SURFACE PRESSURES GRADUALLY LOWER OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO. GENERALLY WENT WITH GUIDANCE ON TUE- WED MAX TEMPS AND WENT A TAD ABOVE ON MIN TEMPS TUE- WED MORNINGS DUE TO RECENT OBSERVED BIASES. /23 JMM && .LONG TERM...[WEDNESDAY EVENING THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY]...AFOREMENTIONED S/WAVE AMPLIFIES AS ITS AXIS REMAINS CENTERED ON OUR REGION. IT IS DURING THIS TIME THAT DEVELOPING BROAD GULF LOW (ONLY A FEW MILLIBARS DROP NOW) BEGINS NOTICEABLY DEVELOPING ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE UPPER TROUGH (NOT IN 02.12 UTC ECMWF ONLY THE GFS). SEVERAL MESOLOWS CONTINUE MOVING UP THE STALLED FRONT PRIOR TO 12Z FRIDAY (WHICH IS WHAT ECMWF ALSO DOES). AS MENTIONED IN PAST SEVERAL DISCUSSIONS...THE UPPER TROUGH CONTINUES TO VERIFY FURTHER NORTHWARD WITH TIME AND APPEARS TO BE LOSING ITS VERTICAL CIRCULATORY CONNECTION TO THE STALLED FRONT AS IT CONTINUES TO VERIFY FURTHER NORTHWARD WITH TIME. THUS...THE WHOLE EVOLUTION IS LOOKING MORE FRONTOLYTIC. AN APPARENT MAIN SURFACE LOW SLOWLY MEANDERS NORTHWARD INTO THE CENTRAL GLFMEX LATE IN THE WEEK (AGAIN...ONLY IN THE GFS). FORECAST CONFIDENCE IS VERY LOW AT THIS TIME AND WE'LL CONTINUE TO CLOSELY WATCH IT. IT MUST ALSO BE EMPHASIZED THAT THROUGH THE ENTIRE EXTENDED FORECAST PERIOD...THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THE TROUGH REMAINS VERY ACTIVE WITH PERIODIC S/WAVE ENERGY MOVING THROUGH IT FROM TIME TO TIME. THERE WILL BE AMPLE LOW- AND DEEP- LAYER MOISTURE VALUES...INSTABILITY AND MESOSCALE LIFT TO FORCE DEEP CONVECTIVE INITIATION FROM TIME TO TIME THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD AND THAT SHOULD BE OUR HIGHEST IMPACT SENSIBLE WEATHER RESULT AT THIS TIME. OTHERWISE...EXPECT WARM TO HOT DAYS AND WARM HUMID NIGHTS THROUGH THE PERIOD. /23 JMM && .MARINE...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE STRETCHING WEST OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN AS A WEAK FRONT APPROACHES...THEN STALLS ALONG THE NORTHERN GULF COAST TONIGHT INTO MONDAY. GUIDANCE IS ADVERTISING A SURFACE LOW ORGANIZING/TRYING TO ORGANIZE OVER THE CENTRAL GULF MID WEEK. THE ECMWF AND CANADIAN ORGANIZE THE SYSTEM MORE...TAKING NE OVER THE NE-ERN GULF COAST THE END OF THE WEEK. THE GFS MEANDERS IT AROUND OVER THE OPEN GULF INTO THE WEEKEND BEFORE WASHING IT AS IT MOVES ONSHORE OVER THE NORTH-CENTRAL GULF OF MEX AS A SURFACE RIDGE BUILDS WEST OVER THE GULF OF MEX. BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS HAVE THE BUILDING SURFACE RIDGE...SO MORE ORGANIZED ONSHORE FLOW RETURNING TO THE AREA BY THE COMING WEEKEND. UNTIL THEN...A MAINLY DIURNAL GULF BREEZE DAYTIME...LIGHT OFFSHORE NIGHT TIME REGIME IS EXPECTED...WITH A GENERALLY EASTERLY COMPONENT TO EACH. /16 && .FIRE WEATHER...A COLD FRONT WILL STALL ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT LEAVING MORE MOIST SURFACE CONDITIONS EAST OF I-65 AND DURER CONDITIONS WEST OF. DESPITE THE FRONT...SURFACE RELATIVE HUMIDITIES REMAIN ABOVE CRITICAL VALUES THROUGH THE PERIOD. DUE TO WEAK FLOW ALOFT IN THE VICINITY OF THE STALLED FRONT EXPECT FAIR AFTERNOON DISPERSIONS EACH DAY. PATCHY FOG POSSIBLE NEXT FEW MORNINGS. FOG MAY BE LOCALLY DENSE WEST OF I-65 TOMORROW MORNING...ESPECIALLY OVER INTERIOR SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI AS THE COLD FRONT SLIPS THROUGH AND STALLS BUT ENOUGH DRY AIR PENETRATES FOR BETTER NEAR SURFACE COOLING. /23 JMM && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
