AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
233 PM EDT SAT APR 8 2006

.DISCUSSION...LONG WAVE TROUGH EXTENDS FROM THE CANADIAN MARITIMES
TO LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. A VIGOROUS SHORT WAVE IS ROUNDING THE
BASE OF THE TROUGH WITH ACTIVE CONVECTION PUSHING INTO NORTH
FLORIDA AHEAD OF AN ASSOCIATED FRONTAL BOUNDARY. LOCALLY...VISIBLE
SATELLITE IMAGERY IS SHOWING BASICALLY STREAKS OF CUMULUS OVERLAID
BY THIN CIRRUS ALOFT. FRESH SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST FLOW IS RAISING
DEEP LAYER MOISTURE OVER SOUTH FLORIDA WITH SURFACE DEW POINTS
NEAR 70. TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S OVER INTERIOR
AREAS.

THE MAIN FORECAST ISSUE IN THE NEAR TERM WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR
THUNDERSTORMS...POTENTIALLY SEVERE...TOMORROW AS THE MAIN TROUGH
PUSHES EAST. SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE OVER AREAS NEAR THE LAKE
OVERNIGHT...WITH THE OUTSIDE CHANCE OF THUNDER BEFORE MORNING. FOR
SUNDAY...FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW THE ATMOSPHERE DESTABILIZING
WITH H5 TEMPS DIPPING TO TO -10C BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON...ABOVE A
WARM BOUNDARY LAYER. THE ETA12 SHOWS MOISTURE RAMPING UP TO AN
INCH AND A HALF BY MORNING...CAPE VALUES TO 2200 J/KG...AND
RESPECTABLE SHEAR. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY ALONG WITH SEA BREEZE
COLLISIONS WILL PROVIDE THE LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE. SOUTH FLORIDA
REMAINS IN A SLIGHT RISK ARE FROM SPC IN THE SWODY2 PRODUCT FOR
THESE REASONS. WILL WORD FOR POTENTIAL FOR STRONG STORMS
ACCORDINGLY. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT SOUTH FLORIDA MAY GET SOME MUCH
NEED RAINFALL TOMORROW...WITH MOST AREAS SEEING UP TO A QUARTER
INCH...WITH LOCALLY HEAVIER RAINFALL. THE ONLY OTHER CONCERN WILL
FOG TONIGHT AFTER SOUTHWEST WINDS DECOUPLE. CLOUD COVER MAY BE TOO
MUCH HOWEVER...AND WILL HOLD OFF MENTIONING IT.

FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK...THE FRONT WILL SLOW DOWN THROUGH SOUTH
FLORIDA AND WASH OUT SOUTH OF THE AREA THROUGH MONDAY. DEW POINTS
WILL DROP AND TEMPS WILL RETURN TO NEAR NORMAL CONDITIONS

[CHRISTY]

DOESN'T LOOK LIKE MUCH AT THE MOMENT.....

[weatherwoman132]

yeah, it did actually last 2 minutes. aha.

[SouthFloridawx]

Mine was only a few drops of rain... I did happen to run outside when i saw it but, to of no avail it quickly stopped when I went out there as the dark cloud over head moved away.
