SPOT FORECAST FOR KPPSP ZONE 48...FLORIDA PARK SERVICE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL
855 AM EDT MON MAY 3 2010

FORECAST IS BASED ON IGNITION TIME OF 0850 EDT ON MAY 03.
IF CONDITIONS BECOME UNREPRESENTATIVE...CONTACT THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE.

.DISCUSSION...THE LOW STRATUS CLOUDINESS WILL DISSIPATE AND GIVE
WAY TO STRATOCU AND CUMULUS CLOUDS DURING THE MORNING AS THE
ATMOSPHERE WARMS UP AND MIXES. UPPER AIR SOUNDINGS FROM NWS
OFFICES SHOW AN INVERSION TO AROUND 200O FEET WHICH WILL LIMIT
MIXING HEIGHTS AND MORNING DISPERSION VALUES. DAYTIME HEATING
INTO THE 90S WILL ALLOW MIXING HEIGHTS TO INCREASE SUBSTANTIALLY
DURING THE MID-LATE AFTERNOON...SO THE FORECAST DISPERSION VALUES
WILL NOT BE REALIZED UNTIL WELL INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS.
