SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...WHILE IR PICTURE MAKES T.S. FAY APPEAR
SOMEWHAT DISORGANIZED..VIS/RADAR IMAGERY SHOW GOOD INFLOW NOTCH PRESENT
WITH SEVERAL IMPRESSIVE BANDS COMING ASHORE JUST E OF THE TLH AREA
AND FARTHER E INTO NW FL. LOCAL VWPS INDICATE 45-50KT SRLY/SSERLY FLOW
AT 850MB OFF THE NERN GOM..WHERE SST'S PER BUOYS/STLT DATA ARE ROUGHLY
BETWEEN 28-29C. AMSU PASS INDICATED 2.25" PW'S ALONG THE COAST OF THE WRN
FL PANHANDLE BUT 12Z RAOB AT TLH/JAX SHOWED THAT EVEN HIGHER PW'S STILL
EXISTED ON THE E SIDE OF THE CENTER AND WERE BEING PULLED NWD INTO WRN
GA/CENTRAL AL. RECENT IR HAS SHOWN CLOUD TOP COOLING TO -73C WITHIN BAND
THAT IS STNRY OVER WAKULLA/LEON/W TAYLOR/W JEFFERSON/E GADSDEN COUNTIES
EXTENDING NWD INTO SW GA. THIS BAND EXTENDS OFFSHORE AND SHOWS NO SIGNS
OF MOVING OR LETTING UP AS NEW OVERSHOOTING TOPS HAVE BEEN SPOTTED
WITHIN CNVTN OFFSHORE FRANKLIN COUNTY THAT WILL ROTATE IN OVER ABOVE
MENTIONED COUNTIES. OTHER MAIN BAND OVER NW FL HAS SEEMINGLY WEAKENED A
LITTLE WITH WARMING NOTICED IN IR AND A REDUCTION IN LIGHTNING STRIKES
AS IT PROGRESSES SLOWLY WWD BUT IS STILL CAPABLE OF HVY RAINS. VIS
SHOWS ENHANCED CELLS WITHIN THE BAND FROM WRN HAMILTON COUNTY/FL TO
COLQUITT/COOK COUNTY/GA AS STORMS IN ANOTHER OUTER BAND INTERACT WITH
THOSE CELLS.
.
6HR AUTOMATED STLT ESTIMATES THROUGH 1945Z SHOWED UP TO 6.6" OVER NW
FL/ERN PANHANDLE THOUGH MAY BE JUST A LITTLE UNDERDONE WITHIN THE BAND
NR TLH SINCE THE CLOUD TOPS HAVE ONLY COOLED WITHIN THE PAST FEW HRS. 3
HR ESTIMATES ARE MORE REASONABLE WITH AN AREA OF OVER 3" IN NW FL BAND
AND 2-3" IN THE BAND NR TLH. SEE WEB ADDRESS FOR ESTIMATE GRAPHIC.
