NEW AFD FROM BIRMINGHAM
.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Monday Night)
Issued at 700 PM CDT SUN MAR 30 2025
The stable capping is beginning to set up over the area, putting a
squash on much of the precipitation, at least for the next 4 to 7
hours. We have made some minor adjustments on the severe timing
with a slower start but then increasing speed as it moves through
the area. A good consensus of the short range models are now
really hitting at the one line of storms moving through early
morning through early afternoon. Have adjusted the timing in the
forecast and will still need to adjust the thunder probabilities.
This will be updated soon. If we truly see the MCS move through in
one swoop, there will not be much to work with in the afternoon,
resulting in generally just showers and perhaps a rumble of
thunder as the front. Most of the precipitation should be out of
the southeast by late afternoon, with clearing Monday night of the
clouds. There may be just enough low level moisture in the far
south/southeast that dense fog may develop around 3 AM and persist
for a few hours before moving back south of the area after
sunrise. Will need to monitor that scenario, so included in the
GHWO but will not issue any other products due to the conditional
situation.
