TeachMeFinance.com - explain State Forecast Discussion State Forecast Discussion -- This National Weather Service product is intended to provide a well-reasoned discussion of the meteorological thinking which went into the preparation of the Zone Forecast Product. The forecaster will try to focus on the most particular challenges of the forecast. The text will be written in plain language or in proper contractions. At the end of the discussion, there will be a list of all advisories, non-convective watches, and non-convective warnings. The term non-convective refers to weather that is not caused by thunderstorms. Intermediate State Forecast Discussion will be issued when either significant forecast updates are being made or if interesting weather is expected to occur. Most states are going away from this product and more toward the Area Forecast Discussion (AFD).
