750 AM EDT MON AUG 8 2011

FORECAST IS BASED ON IGNITION TIME OF 0745 EDT ON AUGUST 08.
IF CONDITIONS BECOME UNREPRESENTATIVE...CONTACT THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE.

.DISCUSSION...ANOTHER DAY OF STRONG SW TO WSW FLOW IS ON TAP. PROFILER
WINDS FROM CAPE CANAVERAL INDICATE THE LOW LEVEL FLOW IS EVEN STRONGER
THAN SUNDAY. THEREFORE, THE SEA BREEZE CIRCULATION, WHICH FORMED 2-3
HOURS EARLIER THAN FORECAST MAY NOT FORM AT ALL OR WOULD BE PINNED
OVER THE BARRIER ISLAND SHOULD IT ACTUALLY FORM.

ONCE AGAIN THE IMPETUS FOR STORMS WILL BE ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE WEST
COAST SEA BREEZE. NOCTURNAL MARINE SHOWERS ARE ALREADY BUILDING OVER
THE WESTERN PENINSULA WHICH SHOULD MAE FOR AN ACTIVE AFTERNOON FARTHER
EAST. BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR FAST MOVING SHOWERS AND STORMS AFTER 11 AM.
STORMS WILL CONTAIN GUSTY WINDS TO 25 - 35 MPH AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING.

NO ISSUES ARE ANTICIPATED WITH SMOKE SETTLING. DISPERSION INDICES WILL
BE WELL ABOVE NIGHTTIME NORMALS (LDSI IS 13) AND A LVORI OF 5. STEADY
SW TO WSW WINDS ARE EXPECTED.
