AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSONVILLE FL 224 PM EDT MON JUN 10 2013 .SHORT TERM... REST OF THIS AFTERNOON...NUMEROUS SHOWERS/STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS THE SUWANNEE RIVER VALLEY AND ALONG THE I-75 CORRIDOR OF INLD NE FL AND CAN BE EXPECTED TO TRACK NORTHEAST AND COLLIDE WITH STATIONARY ATLC/EAST COAST SEA BREEZE LATE THIS AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING. THIS IS WHERE THE BEST CHANCES OF ISOLD SEVERE STORMS WITH GUSTY WINDS/HAIL CAN BE EXPECTED. STORM MOVEMENT CONTINUES TO BE TOWARDS THE NORTHEAST AT 15-20 MPH AND LIKELY (50-70%) COVERAGE STILL EXPECTED AREA-WIDE THROUGH THE SUNSET TIME-FRAME. TONIGHT...MID LEVEL TROF WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH ACROSS THE SERN U.S. AND MAY PROLONG THE TSTM ACTIVITY ACROSS SERN GA DURING THE LATE EVENING HOURS AND AFTER MIDNIGHT...WHILE ACTIVITY SHOULD END A BIT CLOSER TO SUNSET ACROSS NORTHEAST FLORIDA. AS MID LEVEL TROF PUSHES INTO THE FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT...LIFT SHOULD HELP TO INITIATE/CONTINUE TSTM ACTIVITY OVER THE OFFSHORE COASTAL WATERS...LASTING THROUGH SUNRISE TUE MORNING. LIGHT SOUTHWEST FLOW OVERNIGHT SHOULD PREVENT MUCH IN THE WAY OF FOG FORMATION...BUT SOME PATCHY 3-5SM IS POSSIBLE BUT NOT SIGNIFICANT/WIDESPREAD ENOUGH TO INCLUDE IN ZFP/GRIDS/HWO AT THIS TIME. MUGGY OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE 70-75 DEGREE RANGE CAN BE EXPECTED. TUE/TUE NIGHT...MID/UPPER TROUGH ACROSS THE NE CONUS WILL BEGIN TO LIFT OUT OF THE AREA. DRIER AIR ALOFT MOVES IN ACROSS SE GA BUT ENOUGH MOISTURE/LIFT TO WARRANT SCATTERED AFTERNOON STORMS ACROSS NE FL. TEMPERATURES WILL SHOW AND INCREASE AS THE RIDGE BEGINS TO INFLUENCE THE AREA...WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER 90S INLAND AND UPPER 80S ALONG THE COAST. LOWS WILL BE AROUND 70 INLAND AND MID 70S ALONG THE COAST. ..LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... RIDGING ALOFT WILL EXPAND EASTWARD INTO THE REGION ON WED AND THURS. THIS WEATHER PATTERN WILL FEATURE A MUCH DRIER NORTHWEST TO NORTHERLY FLOW ALOFT. ONLY ISOLATED AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BENEATH THIS SUBSIDENT AIR MASS ON WED. PLENTY OF INSOLATION WILL RESULT IN THE HOTTEST DAY THUS FAR THIS YEAR...AS HIGHS INLAND SOAR INTO THE MID/UPPER 90S...WITH COASTAL LOCATIONS NEAR 90. COUPLED WITH AFTERNOON DEWPOINTS IN THE LOWER 70S...HEAT INDICES NEAR 105 DEGREES ARE POSSIBLE INLAND DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. A POTENT SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL DIVE SOUTHWARD FROM THE OHIO VALLEY INTO THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES ON THURS ALONG THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE RIDGE. INCREASED VORTICITY ADVECTION IN ADVANCE OF THIS TROUGH SHOULD ENHANCE DIURNAL CONVECTION...AND WE HAVE INDICATED WIDELY SCATTERED AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING COVERAGE. DESPITE SLIGHTLY HIGHER AFTERNOON RAIN CHANCES...HIGHS ON THURS SHOULD ONLY BE A DEGREE OR TWO COOLER THAN WED. ACTIVITY MAY LINGER ON THURS NIGHT IN SOUTHEAST GA AS A LATE SEASON COLD FRONT PUSHES SOUTHWARD...AND WE HAVE LEFT WIDELY SCATTERED COVERAGE IN THE FORECAST GRIDS FOR THESE LOCATIONS. LOWS ON THURS/FRI MORNINGS SHOULD GENERALLY REMAIN IN THE MID 70S. SHORTWAVE ENERGY DIVING SOUTHWARD WILL SHARPEN TROUGHING ALONG THE U.S. EASTERN SEABOARD FROM FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY. THIS WEATHER PATTERN WILL SEND A LATE SEASON COLD FRONT SOUTHWARD INTO NORTHEAST FL BY LATE FRI. EXPECT AT LEAST SCATTERED ACTIVITY ON FRI ALONG THE FRONT...WITH DECREASING RAIN CHANCES FOR INTERIOR SOUTHEAST GA. HIGHS ON FRI SHOULD BE NEAR MID JUNE CLIMO (NEAR 90 INLAND/MID 80S COAST). THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO LINGER OVER NORTH CENTRAL FL ON SAT BEFORE WASHING OUT. KEPT WIDELY SCATTERED POPS FOR THIS AREA ON SAT AFTERNOON...WHILE DRY CONDITIONS PREVAIL OVER SOUTHEAST GA. AN UNSEASONABLY DRY AIR MASS WILL FILTER INTO NORTHEAST FL BEHIND THIS FRONT FOR SUN. A SURGE OF N/NE WINDS AT COASTAL LOCATIONS WILL KEEP HIGHS DURING THE WEEKEND IN THE MID 80S...WITH INLAND TEMPERATURES NEAR 90 DEGREES. ONLY ISOLATED DIURNAL POPS WERE INCLUDED FOR SUNDAY IN NORTHEAST FL. LOWS INLAND MAY FALL INTO THE MID/UPPER 60S...WHICH WOULD BE BELOW CLIMO FOR MID JUNE. && .AVIATION...LATEST TAF ISSUANCE HAS BEST CHANCES OF TSTM ACTIVITY FROM 4-7PM AT KGNV AND 5-8PM AT COASTAL TAF SITES...WITH TEMPO MVFR CIGS/IFR VSBYS AND GUSTY WINDS TO AT LEAST 25 KNOTS POSSIBLE. ACTIVITY WILL LINGER IN THE REGION UNTIL AROUND 02Z...WITH MAINLY JUST HIGH CLOUDS AND POTENTIAL PATCHY LOW CLOUDS/FOG AFTER MIDNIGHT/TOWARD SUNRISE WITH LINGERING LOW LIGHT SOUTHWEST FLOW. && .MARINE...WINDS/SEAS WILL REMAIN UNDER HEADLINE CRITERIA INTO LATE IN THE WEEK...AS A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE REMAINS CLOSE TO THE LOCAL WATERS. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED MAINLY AFTN/EVENING SHWRS/TSTMS WILL PREVAIL. RIP CURRENTS: LOW RISK THROUGH TUESDAY. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
