Area Discussion for - Miami-South Florida, FL
(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus62 kmfl 240610 afdmfl area forecast discussion national weather service miami fl 110 am est Thu jan 24 2019 Aviation A approaching cold front will bring increasing instability to the region, allowing for the chances of shra and TS to increase later this morning. Some of the TS may be strong with gusty wind, and a very slight chance of a tornado, mainly north of a line from apf over to pbi. The frontal passage currently looks to be late this afternoon, into the evening hours.Behind the front, the wind will shift to the northwest for the overnight hours. Prev discussion issued 714 pm est Wed jan 23 2019 update... a few brief showers moved across the atlantic metro areas during the early evening hours as prevailing southerly flow keeps advecting moisture from the caribbean and the western atlantic. Cloud cover and shower coverage will increase overnight, with highest chances during the mid morning hours, starting around 10 am through noon on Thursday over the gulf areas, and through the early afternoon hours for the atlantic metro areas. Prev discussion... Issued 403 pm est Wed jan 23 2019 discussion... breezy SE winds will strengthen and become S tonight as surface high pressure slides further off to the east ahead of an approaching cold front. This cold front will push through the area tomorrow with showers and thunderstorms possible both along and ahead of the front. The latest guidance has been trending earlier with the frontal passage. The timing is now looking more like 5 am to noon for the gulf coast through lake okeechobee to 10 am to 4 pm for southeast florida. This timing may speed up a little more as we get closer to the event if current trends continue. The primary threats associated with these storms will be isolated strong wind gusts, lightning, and perhaps a brief tornado or two. The storm prediction center has portions of south florida from the gulf coast through lake okeechobee outlooked in a marginal risk for severe weather tomorrow to account for these threats. The front and associated showers and thunderstorms should be pushing out of the area by mid afternoon tomorrow. Nw to N winds are expected in the wake of the front as high pressure settles in over the southeast us. This will allow colder air to filter in over the area once again, with Friday |
night Saturday morning the coldest of the forecast period. Low temperatures Saturday morning are forecast to range from near 40 west of lake okeechobee to the mid 50s along the east coast metro with wind chills in the mid 30s to the low 50s across those same areas. By Sunday the high expands eastward, allowing our winds to become more easterly just in time for the next system to approach the area. The details with this next system are still a bit unclear, but for now it looks like some kind of surface low or elongated trough over the gulf will push across the area from west to east around Monday. This will likely bring another round of showers and thunderstorms to the area late Sunday through Monday night. The next cold front will push through the area around midweek next week. Not a lot of precipitation is expected with this front as it doesn't look like enough moisture will be able to return to the area prior to its arrival. Marine... A persistent southeasterly flow will continue through today with advisory conditions continuing over the atlantic waters and offshore gulf waters. The wind should begin to diminish over the gulf waters late tonight into early Thursday morning, allowing conditions to slowly improve. Increasing shower and thunderstorm activity is expected on Thursday as a front moves across the region. A brief dry period is expected Friday and Saturday before the next disturbance arrives on Sunday into Monday. Beach forecast...
