AMZ400 Synopsis For Altamaha Sound Ga To Flagler Beach Fl Out To 60 Nm- 224 Pm Edt Tue May 14 2024
Synopsis..
southwesterly winds will strengthen this evening ahead of an approaching cold front, with widespread showers and the potential for strong to severe Thunderstorms expected developing over our local waters after midnight. Strong to severe Thunderstorms will be capable of producing damaging wind gusts, hail and waterspouts late tonight and Wednesday morning. Activity will then shift southeastward late on Wednesday morning as the frontal boundary shifts southward. Conditions will improve from north to south on Wednesday afternoon and evening as the frontal boundary shifts southward, with breezy westerly winds expected outside of Thunderstorm activity that will gradually subside by Thursday afternoon as weak high pressure settles over the southeastern states. Winds will then shift to southerly on Friday ahead of the next frontal boundary that will impact our area this weekend. Showers and Thunderstorms will likely impact our local waters from Saturday afternoon through Sunday morning, with a few strong storms possible. Winds will then shift to northwesterly by Sunday afternoon and night as this front pushes offshore.
