NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 1, 10:26 AM EST, 2 hours 59 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TALLAHASSEE FL 1126 AM EDT MON JUN 1 2015 ...UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN TO CONTINUE FOR SEVERAL DAYS THIS WEEK... .NEAR TERM [THROUGH TODAY]... A MID-UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE, CLEARLY SEEN IN WATER VAPOR IMAGERY OVER MEMPHIS, WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY DEEPEN AS IT CROSSES THE TENNESSEE VALLEY TODAY. THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH EXTENDS ALL THE WAY TO THE NORTHERN GULF. WITH A STRONG 60-80 KNOT UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE WAVE, THIS WILL PLACE OUR FORECAST AREA IN THE FAVORABLY DIFFLUENT RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION. THEREFORE, CONVECTION TODAY WILL BE DRIVEN BY MORE THAN JUST THE SEA BREEZE AND WE ANTICIPATE FAIRLY WIDESPREAD COVERAGE. EVEN TRADITIONAL MOS GUIDANCE AT 00Z GENERALLY PLACED LIKELY POPS OVER MUCH OF OUR FORECAST AREA. OUR LOCAL HI-RES MODEL ENSEMBLE WAS EVEN MORE ROBUST, WITH 80-90% POPS OVER MOST OF THE AREA NORTH OF INTERSTATE 10. THE EARLY MORNING FORECAST PACKAGE DID NOT TREND THE FORECAST QUITE THAT HIGH WITH LIKELY (60-70%) POPS INCLUDED ESSENTIALLY MORE THAN 15 MILES AWAY FROM THE COAST, AND A FEW AREAS OF 80% POPS INCLUDED ALONG THE I-10 CORRIDOR FROM DE FUNIAK SPRINGS EAST TO TALLAHASSEE. CONVECTION SHOULD GET AN EARLY START TODAY, WITH MOST HI-RES MODELS INDICATING INITIATION ALONG THE SEA BREEZE IN THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE AS EARLY AS 15-16Z. WE ARE STARTING TO SEE THAT HAPPEN. ALL OF THIS REASONING REMAINS SOUND AND NO CHANGES TO THE POP/WX GRIDS WERE NECESSARY THIS MORNING. WEAK LOW-MID LEVEL FLOW SHOULD LEAD TO SLOW STORM MOTIONS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. SOME GUSTY WINDS CAN'T BE RULED OUT AS WELL. SPC HAS ONCE AGAIN INCLUDED THE ENTIRE AREA IN A MARGINAL RISK FOR SEVERE STORMS (SOMETHING WE WILL LIKELY SEE EACH OF THE NEXT FEW DAYS). && .PREV DISCUSSION [331 AM EDT]... .SHORT TERM [TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY]... A MID TO UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL DEVELOP OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY TONIGHT AND SHOW VERY LITTLE MOVEMENT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THE AXIS OF THE UPPER TROUGH WILL CUT FROM NORTH TO SOUTH MIDWAY THROUGH OUR CWA. A PLUME OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WILL GENERALLY RESIDE ALONG AND EAST OF THE RIVER ON TUESDAY WITH SOME MID TO UPPER LEVEL DRY AIR FILTERING IN FROM WEST TO EAST ON WEDNESDAY. A VERY WEAK SURFACE PRESSURE PATTERN WITH ONSHORE FLOW WILL CONTINUE INTO MID WEEK. ON TUESDAY POPS WILL BE TAPERED GOOD CHANCE WEST TO LIKELY EAST. THEN ON WEDNESDAY WITH THE MID TO UPPER LEVEL DRIER AIR FILTERING IN, POPS WILL BE TAPERED MID RANGE CHANCE (30%) WEST TO GOOD CHANCE (50%) EAST. MAX TEMPS WILL BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S WITH LOWS IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S. .LONG TERM [WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY]... THE MID TO UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE SLOWLY EASTWARD AND OPEN UP AS IT MOVES INTO THE CAROLINA'S ON FRIDAY. HOWEVER, THE SOUTHWESTWARD EXTENDING TROUGH WILL LINGER AND EVEN DEEPEN OVER THE SOUTHEAST CONUS INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. WHILE THE DEEPEST MOISTURE WILL HAVE MOVED TO OUR EAST, THE PRESENCE OF THE TROUGH WILL LIKELY PROVIDE SOME ENHANCEMENT FOR AFTERNOON CONVECTION. DAYTIME POPS WILL BE IN THE LOWER TO MID CHANCE RANGE, MORE TYPICAL FOR EARLY JUNE. TEMPS WILL ALSO BE NEAR SEASONAL LEVELS. .AVIATION... [THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY] SOME FOG IS POSSIBLE AROUND SUNRISE, PARTICULARLY BETWEEN 10Z AND 13Z. IN GENERAL, MVFR VISIBILITY WOULD BE EXPECTED, BUT IFR/LIFR CIGS OR VIS CAN'T BE RULED OUT AT TIMES WHERE FOG DOES DEVELOP - PARTICULARLY AT TLH AND VLD. AFTER THAT, CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE TO VFR THROUGH THE REST OF THE TAF PERIOD, OUTSIDE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS (WHICH COULD PRODUCE BRIEF LOCAL IFR VIS). SHOWERS AND STORMS MAY DEVELOP AS EARLY AS 16-18Z AROUND ECP AND TLH AND THEN QUICKLY EXPAND INLAND AFFECTING THE OTHER TERMINALS DURING THE AFTERNOON. .MARINE... LIGHT WINDS AND RELATIVELY CALM SEAS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. WINDS AND SEAS MAY BE LOCALLY HIGHER NEAR THUNDERSTORMS. WINDS WILL SHIFT ONSHORE AND BE ENHANCED NEAR THE COAST EACH AFTERNOON WITH THE SEA BREEZE CIRCULATION. .FIRE WEATHER... WETTING RAINS WILL BE POSSIBLE THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS WITH FAIRLY HIGH COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS. HAZARDOUS FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED. .HYDROLOGY... SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED EACH DAY THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THIS WEEK. WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAINFALL IS NOT ANTICIPATED. HOWEVER, WITH ANY SLOW MOVING THUNDERSTORM ISOLATED FLOODING IS POSSIBLE. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
