New DISCUSSION, AVIATION, MARINE, FIRE WEATHER

DISCUSSION
Issued at 224 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

High pressure remains in control and will stay in control of our weather pattern for at least the next week. This means warming temperatures and dry conditions. As the surface high pressure settles off to our east, it will lead to light easterly or southeasterly winds across the peninsula. This easterly flow will minimize the sea breeze influence and advect the warmest temperatures across our area, keeping temperatures across the CWA in the upper 80s and lower 90s. The drier airmass across the region will not only restrict rainfall chances but also lead to lower humidity. So while temperatures will be above normal for this time of year, at least it will be a dry heat.

AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 224 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

VFR conditions expected through the forecast period. Primarily easterly to southeasterly flow will turn onshore later this afternoon with the sea breeze, remaining 10 knots or less. Winds will then be light and variable overnight. Easterly flow expected once again on Thursday morning.

MARINE
Issued at 224 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

High pressure is expected across the region for the upcoming week leading to minimal weather concerns. Easterly winds will turn onshore each afternoon remaining below 15 knots with seas of 2 feet and under.

FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 224 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

High pressure will remain in control over the next week. Critically low RH values are expected each afternoon, but winds will remain light negating a need for any Red Flag Warning.
