AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
917 PM CST WED DEC 2 2009

.UPDATE...FOR EVENING DISCUSSION.

.DISCUSSION...

SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR LATEST WEATHER MAKER HAVE FINALLY COME 
TO AN END FOR THE MOST PART.  A FEW ISOLATED SHOWERS...MAYBE EVEN A 
LITTLE DRIZZLE...COULD BE POSSIBLE DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS ACROSS 
THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE CWA...BUT FOR THE MOST PART EVERYONE WILL 
BE DRY.

WINDS ARE FINALLY BEGINNING TO SUBSIDE ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF 
THE AREA AS WELL...AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT IS BEGINNING TO RELAX... 
SO WILL LET THE WIND ADVISORY EXPIRE.  A FEW WIND GUSTS TO 25 KTS 
ARE POSSIBLE FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS BUT THEY WILL BE FAIRLY 
ISOLATED IN NATURE.

A FEW STARS ARE BEING SEEN OVER THE EASTERN THIRD OF THE AREA AT 
THIS HOUR...BUT THIS WILL END BY MIDNIGHT AS CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED TO 
BUILD INTO THIS AREA...LEAVING THE ENTIRE CWA OVERCAST OVERNIGHT.  
THIS WILL MITIGATE THE TEMPERATURES DROPPING TOO LOW BEHIND THE COLD 
FRONT THAT MOVED THROUGH EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON.  LOW 40S ARE STILL 
EXPECTED TONIGHT.

OTHERWISE...THE FORECAST CAST IS ON TRACK.  UPDATE IS OUT...ALONG 
WITH THE EXPIRATION OF THE WIND ADVISORY. 

&&

.AVIATION...00Z TAF DISCUSSION.

WINDS STILL BREEZY BEHIND FRONT FOR THIS EVENING...WILL BEGIN TO 
LIGHTEN SOME IN THE LATER EVENING HRS. LOW CIGS ARE EXPECTED TO 
BECOME A PROBLEM WITH WRAP AROUND LOW MOISTURE. FOG SHOULD NOT BE A 
PROBLEM AS WINDS SHOULD NOT TOO LIGHT. LOW CIGS SHOULD REMAIN IN 
SOME RESPECT THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON THURSDAY.
