Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL 256 AM EST Mon Dec 9 2019

DISCUSSION. High amplitude U/L pattern to begin the period with a sharp ridge along the west coast of western North America and a deepening trough over central Canada and the central U.S. Southern stream disturbance over Baja California will eject eastward across the southern Plains Tuesday and will come in phase with a northern stream disturbance. The southern stream disturbance will shear out on Wednesday with main U/L energy in the northern stream moving across the Ohio River Valley and the Northeast on Thursday.

Significant U/L pattern change mid/late week as a strong disturbance crashes the west coast ridge with strong quasi-zonal flow developing. The S/W disturbance will push across the southern Plains on Thursday and the Lower Mississippi Valley on Friday. The disturbance will rotate northeast across the Ohio River Valley on Saturday with a trough developing from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico.

At the surface, high pressure will hold over west central and southwest Florida today and Tuesday. Mid level subsidence inversion around 70H with east to southeast boundary layer flow beneath is advecting relatively high dew point air across the region. Daytime heating will create sufficient low level instability for an isolated light shower to develop below the subsidence inversion each afternoon . however minimal coverage and QPF will be too low to advertise POPs in the forecast.

On Wednesday, a cold front will approach and stall over north central Florida with a chance of showers developing across the forecast area. Residual moisture and weak lift will persist over the area into Thursday with a continued chance of showers and possibly a thunderstorm. Stronger U/L energy and associate cold front will approach the area on Friday with an increasing chance of showers and thunderstorms. The front will move slowly across west central and southwest Florida Friday night and Saturday with showers and thunderstorms ending from west to east.

AVIATION. Patchy early morning fog will create local MVFR vsbys . otherwise VFR conditions will prevail today at all terminals with SCT lcl BKN 040-050 this afternoon.

MARINE. Rather benign conditions expected today through Wednesday across the waters with relatively light winds and seas. Increasing northeast winds in the wake of cold front Wednesday night and Thursday across mainly the northern and central waters . with SCEC or SCA conditions possible. Another cold front will approach the waters late Friday and Friday night with the potential for SCEC/SCA conditions. Winds and seas will subside over the weekend as weak high pressure builds over the waters in the wake of the cold front.

FIRE WEATHER. No fire weather hazards are expected for the next several days as relative humidity values are expected to remain above critical levels.

Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
