Pattern should keep ese winds elevated 10-15kts for east coast, with kapf around 5kts overnight. Shra coverage diminishes late morn, but isold threat continues through TAF cycle. Ese winds pickup after 14z for all sites at 12-18kts and gusty at times. Prev discussion issued 743 pm est Tue feb 19 2019 update... Have adjusted pops down in the short term with the drier start to the evening than previously forecasted. However, some showers over the atlantic could work their way into the east coast metro areas late tonight. Therefore, have kept the slight chance for showers through the overnight hours. Otherwise, the remainder of the forecast is on track and no major changes are anticipated at this time. Prev discussion... Issued 342 pm est Tue feb 19 2019 discussion... maximum temperatures for naples today have exceeded their daily record along with the monthly record for february. This is a result of strong deep layer ridging across south florida producing decent se-e flow. After sunset, the slight chance for isolated showers may increase given the large amount of day time heating today. However, unlike the previous few evenings, guidance is not very optimistic for fog development at this time given the elevated wind speeds despite ample low-level moisture in place. Should areas of patchy fog develop throughout the interior, the extent will likely remain shallow and dissipate after sunrise. With the aforementioned mid-level ridging aloft securing it's place across south florida for the remainder of the forecast period, daily temperatures look to continue running above average across the peninsula. The chance for showers will increase through this week as a stationary boundary currently draped across central florida will begin it's retreat north late tonight. This will keep south florida within the warm sector as a surface low |
currently developing over the lower great plains moves off to the ne. By Monday, global models depict a gradual weakening of the mid- level ridge. Allowing for the upper level flow to become zonal aloft and thus allow a frontal boundary to approach south florida. However, the latest runs for both the GFS and ECMWF keep the axis of the ridge firmly anchored in place. This will cause the front to lose it's upper level support and become stationary once again north of our area. The chance of isolated showers remains through the forecast period and temperatures look to continue to run above the climatological average for this time of year. Marine... overall, fairly quiet weather will remain in place through the forecast period as high pressure will continue to dominate the weather pattern across the atlantic and gulf waters. Despite this, the slight chance of showers cannot be ruled out across the atlantic through the week. Through tonight, boating conditions over the atlantic look to deteriorate as se-e winds increase to 10-15 kt, with 15-20 kt possible at times as the surface pressure gradient tightens. Seas will continue to build through the day tomorrow with 4-6 ft seas, with occasional 7 ft seas, in the atlantic. A NE swell will also impact the waters off the palm beach county. At this time, advisory levels are not forecasted. However, mariners should exercise caution.
