GMZ600 Synopsis For Pascagoula Ms To Okaloosa Walton County Line Fl Out 60 Nm Including Major Area Bays And Sounds- 441 Am Cdt Mon Aug 26 2019
Synopsis..A light to moderate onshore flow is expected today through mid week. A cool front currently over the plains states will drop down toward the gulf coast and then offshore into the northeastern gulf by late Wednesday. With this frontal passage, a light to moderate northwest to northerly flow is expected late in the week. Seas build slightly around midweek, up to 2 to 3 feet well offshore, but in general will be 2 feet or less. Expect periods of showers and Thunderstorms with locally higher winds and seas.

(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus64 kmob 260949 afdmob area forecast discussion national weather service mobile al 449 am cdt Mon aug 26 2019 Near term now through Monday night Weak surface high pressure ridging over the area from the northeast will weaken further through tonight as a mid upper level shortwave axis centered just west of the area early this morning lifts east- northeast today and tonight. This mid upper level feature will be weakening as it lifts across the area today, but will still provide enough dynamics to support likely showers and thunderstorms. No real locally noted low level features to focus on in the near term, but an extremely moist airmass will be in place with pwats primarily in the 2.2 to 2.4 inch range. All of this moisture will be pooling up south of a weak stationary boundary stretching from northwest to southeast across mississippi and alabama. All of this will provide a continuation of a fairly unsettled weather pattern across the region in the near term period. Currently have some areas of rain and showers over the region, and high-res models indicate a general increase in precipitation across the region through the morning hours, especially over the western half of the forecast area. By this afternoon, expect scattered to locally numerous showers and storms across the entire area. With the very moist airmass, still expect periods of heavy rain in some locations today. While heavy rainfall is possible across the entire area today, it will be most likely over the western half. After coordination with wpc and surrounding offices (lix and jan), we have adjusted our slight risk of excessive rainfall slightly to the west. It is over that area where rainfall totals of over 2 inches, locally 3 inches, will be possible today. Further east rainfall totals of 1 to 2 inches possible. We will not be issuing any flash flood advisories, but it should be noted that rainfall rates will at times be supportive of localized flash flooding, especially over the western half of our forecast area. Severe potential in this environment remains low as the wind profile will be lacking in the needed shear, however MLCAPE values ranging from 1500-2500 j kg will provided enough energy for some strong thunderstorms embedded within the widespread rain and showers. With the widespread clouds and precipitation expected today, highs will generally be in the low to mid 80s across most of the area, although a few upper 80s will be possible in some locations. Lows tonight will be in the lower 70s for most areas except along the coast, where mid to upper 70s are expected. 12 ds Short term Tuesday through Wednesday night Lead upper level trof axis aligned from the appalachians, southwest across the ms sound Tuesday morning de-amplifies a bit going thru the course of the day. Embedded in the trof axis, a stream of deep layer moisture characterized by pwats between 2.0 and 2.2 inches remains in place. Main contributor to forcing ascent for convective development will come from the passage of mid-level impulses thru the base of the upper trof position. The only surface contribution to lift looks to be weak mesoscale boundaries and perhaps a slow northeastward advance of a coastal sea-breeze. The more substantive surface boundaries will be to our northeast and northwest, with a warm front lifting northeast and weakening over the southeast and a front moving out of the southern plains to thru the mid-south late in the day Tuesday. Enough upper level support and high amounts of deep moisture suggests that showers and storms will be likely into Tuesday. To our north and west, long-wave upper trof amplifies as it ejects eastward out of the northern high plains Tuesday night to across the great lakes Wednesday. Surface front makes steady progress approaching the northern zones Wednesday morning southeastward to near the coast by evening. Chance of showers storms along the us highway 84 corridor and more likely |
elsewhere Wednesday as the front approaches. Front moves off the coast Wednesday night with drier air in its wake bringing a reduction in rain chances. Gridded daily highs range 87 to around 91 Tuesday with similar numbers for Wednesday. Lows in the 70s Tuesday night trend lower Wednesday night due to frontal passage. May see several locations in the interior seeing lows settling into the mid to upper 60s. 10 Long term Thursday through Sunday With front into the gulf Thursday, a sunny and drier day expected. Medium range weather models show a narrow mid level ridge setting up from the southwest atlantic into ms Friday and Saturday. In the evolving deeper level easterlies on the southern periphery of the ridge feature, a tap of atlantic moisture is driven westward over the local area into the weekend. This in combination with a westward moving inverted trof axis over the gulf brings a return to rain chances for the weekend. Highs range from the upper 80s to lower half of the 90s. Coolest night Thursday night with overnight lows sinking into the 60s for much of the area north of i-10. The lowest near 63 over the northwest zones north of a line from grove hill al to waynesboro ms. The cool down will be brief as overnight lows warm the remainder of the period. A look at the tropics, tropical storm dorian is forecast by the national hurricane center (nhc) to impact the greater antille's island of hispaniola as a hurricane early Thursday morning. The mountainous terrain will likely cause a disruption weakening of dorian's inner-core as it moves over the island. NHC forecasters keep enough of the inner-core intact though, forecasting a depression moving northwest through the southern bahamas into the weekend. Will continue to keep a close eye on dorian in the coming days. 10 Marine A light to moderate south to southwest flow is expected today through late Tuesday night or early Wednesday. Low pressure developing off the eastern seaboard will lift northeast through the week, allowing a cool front currently over the plains states to drop down toward the gulf coast and then offshore into the northeastern gulf by late Wednesday. With this frontal passage, a light to moderate northwest to northerly flow is expected late in the week. Seas build slightly around midweek, up to 2 to 3 feet well offshore but in general will be 2 feet or less through the period. Periods of showers and thunderstorms can be expected over the coastal waters through the period as well. 12 ds Preliminary point temps pops Mobile 83 74 90 74 92 71 91 67 90 50 70 50 60 20 10 0 pensacola 84 76 90 76 92 74 92 71 100 50 70 50 60 20 10 0 destin 84 78 87 78 89 76 89 74 90 50 70 50 60 20 10 10 evergreen 82 72 90 74 92 70 92 66 100 50 60 40 50 10 0 0 waynesboro 81 72 88 72 88 67 88 63 90 40 60 40 60 10 0 0 camden 81 72 88 73 89 68 89 65 100 40 60 30 40 10 0 0 crestview 84 73 89 73 92 70 92 67 90 50 70 40 60 20 10 0 Mob watches warnings advisories Al...

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. |
