thunderstorms pose a major threat to operations at the kennedy space center (ksc), especially for space shuttle launches and landings. the paper summarizes the initial phases of a three year effort to assess the operational efficiency of using guidance from a mesoscale numerical model to improve sea breeze thunderstorm forecasts at and around the shuttle landing strip. the redistribution of boundary layer moisture by the sea breeze has profound impacts on regional patterns of potential instability thunderstorm forecasting indices which combine model-predicted vertical motion fields with localized enhancements of potential instability by sea breeze convergence appear to have considerable utility. detailed case studies demonstrated the concept, which was then tested on a semi-operational basis during 1986. during the 1987 sea breeze season, daily forecast guidance generated by the numerical model will be provided to ksc forecasters
