New LONG TERM

SHORT TERM
(Rest of today through Monday)
Issued at 1218 PM EDT Sun Apr 28 2024

The influence of high pressure remains over South Florida as we enter the work week with surface high pressure remaining situated in the Western Atlantic. This surface high will slowly weaken as low pressure over the central United States dissolves and the combination of that with a weakening surface high will allow windy conditions to slowly subside. Conditions will remain gusty today into tonight and breezy into Monday as well.

Other than that, mostly dry weather will continue with isolated Atlantic showers that could overspread the peninsula during peak heating with assistance from sea breezes that could develop in the afternoons. Temperatures will be mostly in the low to mid 80s on Monday, though portions of Southwest Florida could see temperatures rise into the upper 80s.

LONG TERM
(Monday night through next Saturday)
Issued at 203 PM EDT Sun Apr 28 2024

Long term begins with mid level ridging over the eastern seaboard gradually migrating into the western Atlantic, while persisting sfc high pressure keeping a relatively stable air mass over Soflo through at least the middle of the work week. As the mid level ridge moves further away from the region, pressure gradients across the area will relax and allow for the breezy periods to subside.
Meanwhile, low-lvl winds across SoFlo gradually veer SE by this time, allowing for a very modest moisture advection to briefly raise chances of rain into the teens to low 20s, mainly over the east coast and interior areas. But showers in general will remain very limited through the long term as relatively dry/stable air stays in place.

Afternoon high temperatures through Wednesday are expected to reach the low-mid 80s near the coasts, and upper 80s to around 90 inland.
Then by the end of the work week, the mid level ridge strengthens and drives high temperatures into the upper 80s near the coasts and low 90s inland.

AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1218 PM EDT Sun Apr 28 2024

Generally VFR with a breezy easterly flow. Gusts to around 25-30 kt are possible both around Atlantic showers and outside of convection today. Brief sub-VFR will be possible with showers that directly impact a terminal.

MARINE
Issued at 1218 PM EDT Sun Apr 28 2024

Hazardous marine conditions will begin to subside this evening into Monday. Calmer conditions should return by the middle of this week.

BEACHES
Issued at 1218 PM EDT Sun Apr 28 2024

A high risk for rip currents continues along the Atlantic coast as gusty onshore winds remain in place on Sunday and into Monday. These gusty winds will continue to assist in the potential formation of larger waves in the surf zone up to 7-8 ft, but this risk should lessen by Sunday evening.
