New AVIATION

SHORT TERM
(Rest of today through Thursday)
Issued at 1259 PM EDT Wed May 1 2024

We will continue to see a teaser of the upcoming wet season in the short term period, with showers and a few afternoon thunderstorms possible each day. Thursday will generally be less active, as drier air starts to filter in with a mid-level ridge building over the area in the wake of a trough passing through today. Convective activity will generally initiate along East Coast sea breeze boundaries before moving inland and over the Gulf Coast areas later in the day. The primary hazards with any thunderstorm would be heavy downpours and gusty winds. Other than the convective activity, conditions will be pleasant with an easterly breeze and mostly clear skies.

Temperatures will range from the low to mid 80s over the East Coast metro areas to the upper 80s and near 90 over the interior sections today and tomorrow.

LONG TERM
(Thursday night through next Tuesday)
Issued at 244 PM EDT Wed May 1 2024

As we wrap up the week, the trough will make it's exit eastward into the Atlantic as a mid-level ridge gradually moves into the Southeast. With easterly flow and remnant moisture, there is a chance for isolated light showers late Thursday before a dry day on Friday. Through the majority of the long term, a weak body of surface high pressure will have an influence on the conditions over the Peninsula, thus keeping it drier and warm. The high will be situated over the western Atlantic which will lead to consistent easterly flow near the surface. With the E/SE flow and a quick moving shortwave trough, there will be a chance (15-30%) for isolated to scattered showers over the weekend, due to modest moisture advection and pooling. By late Monday, strong, mid-level ridging builds back in over the Gulf of Mexico and Southeast. There is potential for daily isolated showers and storms enhanced by gulf and sea breezes as we move into the new week. At this point, however, ensembles indicate that next week will begin mostly dry as we quickly move towards the wet season which begins mid-month.

Temperatures will be near to just above normal through the extended period. The highs will rise into the upper 80s across SW FL and interior, while remaining in the low to mid 80s along the Atlantic Coast. The overnight lows will be in the 60s, except for low to mid 70s across the east coast metro areas.

AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 204 AM EDT Thu May 2 2024

VFR prevail through 13-14Z, then another round of showers is possible, especially early in the afternoon with sea breeze development. Most of the thunderstorm activity during the late afternoon hours should remain further inland and away form the terminals. Winds will ESE around 6kt through 14Z, then in the 10-12kt range for the rest of the afternoon hours.

MARINE
Issued at 1259 PM EDT Wed May 1 2024

Mostly benign conditions will continue through the end of the week. There will be chances for showers and a few thunderstorms each day, which could create locally hazardous conditions. Other than the convective threat, there is not expected to be concerns for marine conditions. Seas will generally remain at 2 to 4 feet in the Atlantic waters and 2 feet or less in the Gulf waters.
Winds will be around 10-15 kts out of the east.

BEACHES
Issued at 1259 PM EDT Wed May 1 2024

A high risk of rip currents will be present for the Palm beaches today with a lingering swell and onshore flow. The rest of the coast will see a moderate risk and it is likely that at least an elevated risk continues for all beaches along the Atlantic coast through the end of the week as breezy onshore flow continues.
