The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 9, 9:50 AM CST, 2 hours 18 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tallahassee FL 1150 AM EDT Thu Jun 9 2022 .UPDATE... Shower and storm coverage has decreased over the last two hours but is expected to ramp back up throughout the afternoon, PoPs were nudged up a little to reflect this. Otherwise, no major updates appear necessary to the forecast. && .PREV DISCUSSION [635 AM EDT]... .NEAR TERM [Through Tonight]... With northwest flow established through the mid levels across our region, small influxes of shortwave vorticity maxima disturbances are forecast to push southeastward into our area today, with a main vorticity maxima expected later this afternoon. This will set up decent forcing for ascent across our area this afternoon and evening, which will aid in shower and thunderstorm development. There is still some uncertainty with possible showers and thunderstorms developing early this morning across SE Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. Recent runs of the HRRR have really downplayed the development of these showers and thunderstorms this morning; however, some shower and thunderstorms have started to develop across south central Alabama, which could still make it into the area later this morning. These early morning showers and thunderstorms will likely only produce brief gusty winds and some heavy rainfall. The biggest threat today will be the storms in the afternoon and evening, which are the storms that SPC has given us a marginal risk for (level 1 of 5). With sufficient daytime heating later this afternoon, MLCAPE values are currently forecast to be over 3000 J/Kg across the Florida Panhandle and Big Bend. These values drop off the farther north you go into SE Alabama and SW Georgia. On top of the CAPE values, there are also 900-1000 J/Kg of DCAPE across this same region. Storms will likely become cold pool dominant later this afternoon and evening given the lack of vertical wind shear, but with instability levels this high coupled with high DCAPE values and PW values near 2 inches, thunderstorms that do develop will likely have strong downbursts. Any strong downbursts that do develop will likely be able to produce strong to severe wind gusts. Outside of the threat for strong thunderstorms this afternoon, high temperatures today are forecast to be in the low 90s areawide, while low temperatures are forecast to fall into the low 70s. .SHORT TERM [Friday Through Saturday]... Active pattern continues on Friday and Saturday with northwest flow aloft and a nearby frontal boundary. This will allow for one or more Mesoscale Convective Complexes to impact the region. Meanwhile, convection is also likely with the sea-breeze front, which will remain closer to I-10 given the westerly low-level flow. PoPs are above climatology each day, up to 60-70 pct. Isolated severe storms are possible, with damaging winds and hail. PWATs also increase to around 2 inches, so localized flooding is possible. Temperatures will be near average. Along the Gulf Beaches, the rip current risk is forecast to be high on Saturday with surf heights around 3 ft. .LONG TERM [Saturday Night Through Thursday]... Deep layer ridging builds into the region late this weekend through mid-week. Depending on how the ridge sets up, will need to monitor any Mesoscale Convective Complexes making a run at the region. Otherwise, expect PoPs closer to climo with convection more sea-breeze driven. The main story will be building heat, with highs well into the 90s next week. Heat Index values between Monday and Thursday are expected to be around 100 to around 105 degrees each day. This will be dangerous to vulnerable populations and those not that are not acclimated to the heat. The rip current risk is forecast to remain high on Sunday at the Gulf Beaches. .AVIATION... [Through 12Z Friday] Showers and thunderstorms have developed around DHN,and ABY this morning, but thus far have not impacted the terminals yet. Expect the line of storms just moving into Coffee county to possibly impact DHN in the next hour or two. These shower and thunderstorms will have the ability to produce brief restrictions of MVFR to LIFR levels. Outside of these restrictions, all terminals are expected to remain at VFR levels. The initial wave of showers and thunderstorms look to dissipate or weaken slightly before instability builds through the afternoon hours and once again develop across the region. These showers and thunderstorms will likely be more robust, with strong wind shifts likely. These showers and thunderstorms will be able to produce MVFR to LIFR restrictions once again, but at all terminals through the afternoon and evening hours. Any thunderstorm activity should diminish by 03 UTC on Friday where VFR conditions should remain for the rest of the TAF period. .MARINE... Southwest winds will remain elevated in the 15 to 20 knot range through early next week with a frontal boundary just north of the coastal waters. This will result in wave heights between 2 and 4 feet. Small Craft Operators Should Exercise Caution. Showers and thunderstorms will result in locally higher winds and seas. .FIRE WEATHER... Strong westerly transport winds around 15-20 mph today will lead to high dispersions through the afternoon and early evening hours. Widespread showers and thunderstorms are forecast today, which will potentially lead to extreme wind shifts and abrupt gusts of wind today. Outside of these concerns, there are no other fire weather concerns today as minimum RH values will be in the upper 50s for inland locations, and near 70 for coastal areas. .HYDROLOGY... Above normal precipitation is expected to continue through Saturday Night over Southeast AL, the FL Big Bend and Panhandle, where rainfall amounts may approach 2.5 inches. Isolated higher amounts around 5 inches are possible in the FL Panhandle and Big Bend. In addition to flooding of poor drainage areas, this may result in isolated flash flooding if the higher amounts fall in a short period of time. For Sunday through Thursday, precip amounts should be closer to average, with more typical summertime sea-breeze convection expected. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not requested. However, spotters are always encouraged to safely report significant weather conditions when they occur (while following all local, state, and CDC guidelines) by calling the office or tweeting us @NWSTallahassee. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
