NWS Melbourne, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 11, 9:15 AM EST, 4 hours 22 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL 1015 AM EDT WED JUN 11 2014 .DISCUSSION... ...HIGHER RAIN CHANCES TODAY...ESPECIALLY FOR THE FL EAST COAST... CURRENT...AXIS OF THE ATLC HIGH PRES RIDGE RESIDES ACROSS SOUTH FL THIS MORNING WITH SSW TO SW SURFACE FLOW IN PLACE ACROSS ECFL. VIS SATELLITE IMAGERY...SHOWS A FAIRLY DENSE SWATH OF MID AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS NEAR AND NW OF A LINE FROM LAKE KISM TO CAPE CANAVERAL. WATERVAPOR IMAGERY AND RUC STREAMLINE/VORT ANLYS FIELDS SHOW A COMPACT UPPER LEVEL LOW AT H30-H20 CTRD NEAR LAKE OKEECHOBEE. WEAKER MID REFLECTION AT H50 WITH A SHORT WAVE TROUGH AXIS ALONG AND JUST OFFSHORE THE SPACE COAST. THIS FEATURE CONTINUES TO PIVOT NE AHEAD OUT AHEAD OF THE HIGHER AMPLITUDE TROUGH PUSHING EAST THROUGH THE MID AND LWR MS VALLEY THIS MORNING. RAOB DATA SHOWS DEEP LATER SW TO WSW FLOW UP THROUGH ABOUT H60...WHERE WINDS SLACKEN AND THEN BACK TO SE/ESE TO THE NORTH OF THE UPPER REFLECTION OF THE TROUGH OVER FL. LOW TO MID LEVEL DRY AIR OF THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS HAS MOISTENED UP WITH MEAN PWATS INCREASING TO 1.8"1/9" AREAWIDE. REST OF TODAY...MAIN FORECAST CONCERN APPEARS TO BE WHAT EFFECT THE THICK HIGH CLOUD COVER MAY HAVE UPON ONSET/TIMING OF LOCAL SEA/LAKE BREEZE BDRYS AND RESULTANT IMPACT ON DIURNAL CONVECTION. WE WOULD NORMALLY EXPECT WCSB-DOMINANT STORMS IN A FLOW REGIME LIKE THIS WITH A LATE ECSB PINNED FAIRLY CLOSE TO THE COAST ACROSS THE NORTH...AND ONLY PROGRESSING SLOWLY TOWARD THE EAST COAST OF LAKE OKEECHOBEE FARTHER SOUTH. OFTEN IN THESE CASES WE ALSO SEE PRECIP DEVELOP ALONG DIFFERENTIAL HEATING BDRYS (BTWN CLOUDY/SUNNY AREAS). CONVECTION IS ALREADY STARTING AROUND THE LAKE AS WELL AS ALONG THE WCSB. THIS SEEMS TO INDICATE THAT WHILE THE PRESENCE OF THE MID/UPPER TROUGH IS LEADING TO THE HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS /MOISTURE...IT IS ALSO HAVING AT LEAST SOME POSITIVE IMPACT ON ASCENT. WITH THE HIGH CLOUD DECK SLOWLY PROGRESSING TO THE NE...THINKING IS THAT AN EARLIER ONSET TIME FOR SHRA/TS SEEMS LIKE A GOOD BET. MADE SLIGHT TWEAK TO GRIDS TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS...BUT IT WILL BE LARGELY TRANSPARENT IN THE ZFP. ALSO INCREASED MORNING CLOUD COVER AND SHAVED A DEGREE OFF MAXES WHERE THE CLOUD DECK CURRENTLY RESIDES. && .AVIATION...VFR GIVES WAY TO INCREASING COVERAGE OF MVFR CIGS AND MVFR TO IFR VSBYS IN +SHRA/TS. TAFS ALREADY REFLECT EARLIER ONSET TO CONVECTIVE ONSET SO NOSIG CHGS NEEDED ATTM. WILL AMD AS NEEDED TO SHOW WIND GUSTS/LWR VSBYS SHOULD SOME OF THE MORE INTENSE CELLS THAT THEY WILL PASS DIRECTLY OVER AERODROMES. && .MARINE...S-SW WIND NEAR 10KT WITH SEAS AROUND 2FT OR A LITTLE LESS PER WNAWAVE GUIDANCE. MAIN CONCERN TODAY WILL BE OFFSHORE MOVING STORMS FROM MID TO LATE AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. && FORECAST/AVIATION...CRISTALDI RADAR/IMPACT WX...ULRICH. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 425 AM EDT WED JUN 11 2014/ THU-FRI...WEAKENING UPPER TROUGH WILL PROGRESS EAST TO THE CAROLINA COAST WITH MID LEVEL TEMPS COOLING TO -11/-12C AT 500 MB OVER EC FL...WHICH IS QUITE COLD/UNSTABLE ALOFT FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. LOW LEVEL RIDGE AXIS WILL REMAIN SUPPRESSED ACROSS SOUTH FL SO THE RESULTING W/SW FLOW WILL DELAY ONSET OF THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE AND ALLOW THE WEST COAST SEA BREEZE TO DOMINATE AND MARCH ACROSS THE PENINSULA. STORM COVERAGE LOOKS HIGH ESP ON THU WHERE WE HAVE DRAWN LIKELY (60 PERCENT) POPS ALL AREAS. A LITTLE DRIER AIR IS FORECAST TO MOVE IN FROM THE WEST ON FRI SO HAVE DRAWN 50 POPS BUT SOUTHERN SECTIONS MAY SEE EQUALLY HIGH COVERAGE AS THU. THE RAIN WILL BE WELCOMED BY MANY ALONG THE EAST COAST WHICH HAS BEEN MISSING OUT RECENTLY. BUT THERE WILL BE THREAT FOR STRONG STORMS GIVEN THE INSTABILITY...MOISTURE AND INTERACTION WITH THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE EXPECTED NEAR THE COAST. FREQUENT LIGHTNING... STRONG DOWNBURST WINDS AND HAIL WILL ACCOMPANY THE STRONGER STORMS. SAT-TUE...ALTHOUGH WEAK MID LEVEL TROUGHING WILL REMAIN OVER THE SOUTHEAST US THIS WEEKEND...THE LOW LEVEL RIDGE AXIS SHOULD SLOWLY LIFT NORTHWARD ACROSS THE AREA. A MID LEVEL RIDGE IS FORECAST TO DEVELOP OVER THE SOUTHEAST US EARLY NEXT WEEK SO WEAKENING STEERING FLOW SHOULD FOCUS SCT AFTN STORMS OVER THE INTERIOR WITH DECREASING RAIN CHANCES ALONG THE EAST COAST. && .AVIATION... VFR CONDS EXPECTED THROUGH THIS MORNING. DEEPER W/SW FLOW DEVELOPS TODAY WITH HIGHER SHOWER/STORM COVERAGE EXPECTED ACROSS THE REGION...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE EAST COAST FROM MID TO LATE AFT. CURRENTLY HAVE VCTS IN THE TAFS...BUT WILL LIKELY NEED TEMPO GROUPS FOR REDUCTIONS TO IFR/MVFR CONDS IN THIS ACTIVITY DURING THE AFT FROM 18Z ONWARD WITH THE 12Z ISSUANCE. && .MARINE... TODAY...SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AXIS SHIFTS SOUTH OF THE AREA WITH WINDS OVER THE COASTAL WATERS OUT OF THE S/SW AND REMAINING BELOW 15 KNOTS. SEAS WILL CONTINUE TO RANGE FROM 1-2 FEET. GREATER THREAT FOR STRONG OFFSHORE MOVING THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON AS A W/SW STEERING FLOW PUSHES STORMS TOWARD THE E/NE. THU-FRI...OFFSHORE (W TO SW) FLOW WILL CONTINUE AS LOW LEVEL RIDGE AXIS REMAINS SOUTH OF THE WATERS. A LATE SEA BREEZE OUT OF THE SE WILL DEVELOP EACH AFTN NEAR THE COAST ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF THE CAPE. A HIGH COVERAGE OF STORMS...SOME STRONG...IS EXPECTED TO PUSH OFFSHORE ESP THU AFTN AND EARLY EVE. SEAS 1-2 FT NEARSHORE AND UP TO 3 FT OFFSHORE. SAT-SUN...THE RIDGE AXIS IS FORECAST TO LIFT NORTH ACROSS THE WATERS WHICH WILL DECREASE THE OFFSHORE FLOW AND ALLOW AN EARLIER ONSET OF THE SEA BREEZE ESP ALONG THE TREASURE COAST. AFTN STORMS WILL TEND TO STAY OVER THE FL PENINSULA BUT SOME DRIFT BACK TOWARD THE COAST SHOULD OCCUR NORTH OF THE CAPE. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

STORMS WILL INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND WILL MOVE TOWARD THE EAST TO NORTHEAST AROUND 15 TO 20 MPH ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON.
