AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOBILE AL
353 PM CDT TUE SEP 2 2014
.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY)...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP OVER MUCH OF THE LOWER MS RIVER VALLEY AND
CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING OUT
AHEAD OF A WELL DEFINED MID LEVEL IMPULSE APPROACHING THE MID TO
LOWER MS RIVER VALLEY THIS AFTERNOON. LATEST RADAR LOOPS CONTINUE TO
SHOW THE BETTER COVERAGE TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF THE KMOB GENERALLY
WERE THE BETTER INSTABILITY IS LOCATED COMBINED WITH THE BETTER LIFT
OR FORCING FROM THE MID LEVEL DISTURBANCE APPROACHING FROM THE NW.
FOR LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD EAST AND SOUTH AFFECTING MOST
AREAS IN THE CWFA THROUGH ABOUT 00Z. DUE TO THE DEEP LAYER MOISTURE
PWATS UP 2 IN WITH POCKETS OF DRIER AIR ALOFT STILL BELIEVE A FEW
STRONG TO BRIEFLY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CAN'T BE RULED THROUGH EARLY
THIS EVENING WITH DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS...FREQUENT CLOUD TO
GROUND LIGHTNING AND MAYBE SOME SMALL HAIL BEING THE MAIN THREATS.
DUE TO THE SLOW MOVEMENT WITH THIS AFTERNOONS CONVECTION SOME
LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY IN URBAN AREAS
WHERE POOR DRAINAGE IS POSSIBLE. FOR LATER TONIGHT STILL BELIEVE
MOST OF THE CONVECTION SHOULD WEAKEN QUICKLY AS DAYTIME HEATING IS
LOST RESULTING IN MOSTLY CLOUDY TO PARTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS THROUGH
WED MORNING. ON WED THE MAIN IMPULSE CONTINUES TO TRACK EAST WELL TO
THE NORTH OF KMOB AND THE WESTERN FL PANHANDLE THOUGH PROVIDING
BETTER LIFT FOR WIDESPREAD COVERAGE BY LATE MORNING OR EARLY
AFTERNOON CONTINUING INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. WITH PLENTY OF
REMNANT OUTFLOW/MESOSCALE BOUNDARIES STILL IN PLACE NEAR THE COAST
AND OFFSHORE WILL LIKELY SEE BETTER COVERAGE OVER THE NEAR SHORE
WATERS AND ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST BY EARLY WED MORNING. AS FOR
TEMPS WILL USE A BLEND OF THE COOLER MET/ECMWF MOS GUIDANCE THROUGH
WED AFTERNOON DUE TO CLOUDS AND RAIN. 32/EE
THIS AFTERNOON'S WET MICROBURST RISK WILL BE HIGH OVER MOST AREAS
THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING.
.LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)...A BROAD UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE CURRENTLY OVER THE SOUTHERN STATES WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN BY THE
END OF THE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. THIS IN RESPONSE TO A WEAKENING
UPPER LEVEL LOW...CURRENTLY OVER THE BAHAMAS/CUBA...RETROGRADING
WEST AND A STRONG TROUGH MOVING ACROSS THE MIDWEST INTO THE MID
ATLANTIC/NEW ENGLAND. MEANWHILE...DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WILL REMAIN
ABUNDANT ACROSS THE AREA WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AVERAGING
NEAR OR ABOVE 2 INCHES. THIS WILL RESULT IN DAILY ROUNDS OF SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...WITH THE GREATEST COVERAGE OCCURRING
DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. GUIDANCE REMAINS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT A
SURFACE TROUGH WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION OVER THE WEEKEND...
MAINTAINING A GOOD CHANCE OF STORMS EACH DAY. CAPPED RAIN CHANCES AT
50% THU-SUN FOR NOW...BUT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT CHANCES WILL NEED TO BE
INCREASED OVER THE WEEKEND AS THE TROUGH WILL SERVE AS AN ADDITIONAL
FOCUS FOR CONVECTION. STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DIMINISH ACROSS LAND
AREAS DURING THE EVENING HOURS...WITH A SMALL CHANCE LINGERING ALONG
THE COAST AND OFFSHORE DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.
WHILE A CHANCE FOR SCATTERED STORMS WILL PERSIST INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK...RAIN CHANCES WILL DIMINISH TO THEIR LOWEST VALUES OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD (30%) BY TUESDAY AS THERE ARE INDICATIONS THAT MID
TO UPPER LEVEL RIDGING WILL BEGIN TO STRENGTHEN OVER THE SOUTHEAST
STATES.
HIGHS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE LOW 90S AWAY FROM THE COAST THROUGH
THE FORECAST PERIOD...WITH UPPER 80S AT THE BEACHES. LOWS WILL DROP
INTO THE LOW TO MID 70S. 34/JFB
&&
.AVIATION (18Z ISSUANCE)...VFR TO MVFR CONDITIONS THROUGH 03.18Z.
ALSO COULD SEE SOME BRIEF PERIODS OF IFR CONDITIONS IN AND AROUND
SOME OF THE STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS MOVING SOUTH AND EAST TOWARDS THE
MS/AL COAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING. GUSTY
STRAIGHT LINE WINDS WILL ACCOMPANY THE STRONGER STORMS THROUGH EARLY
THIS EVENING. 32/EE
&&
.MARINE...HIGH PRESSURE WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN THROUGH THE REMAINDER
OF THE WEEK LEADING TO A BETTER CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH MIDWEEK. THE STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS WILL OCCUR DURING THE
LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS POSSIBLY PRODUCING GUSTY
NORTHERLY WINDS AND HIGHER SEAS AT TIMES EACH DAY. HIGHER SWELL FROM
WELL OFFSHORE HAS BEGUN TO SUBSIDE THIS AFTERNOON RESULTING IN SEAS
MOSTLY AROUND 2 FEET FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. WINDS AND SEAS
WILL BE HIGHER IN AND AROUND SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. 32/EE
