AMZ500 Synopsis For Flagler Beach To Jupiter Inlet Out To 60 Nm- 936 Pm Edt Fri Mar 29 2024
Synopsis - A lingering swell will continue to produce poor boating conditions across the gulf stream waters overnight and Saturday. High pressure will build into the region through early next week with dry weather and improving boating conditions. A cold front will then push through the local waters on Wednesday, producing poor to hazardous boating conditions into late week.
Gulf stream hazards - SEas 4 to 6 feet.

UPDATE
Issued at 856 PM EDT Fri Mar 29 2024
Key Messages: -Crisp mornings and warm afternoons through this weekend.
-Even warmer early next week as some places approach 90F.
-Next cold front, rain chances expected to arrive Wednesday.
Little to talk about as we move into a very pleasant spring weekend across Central Florida. Temperatures are already cooling quickly, thanks to relatively dry air and light winds beneath continental high pressure which has settled over the state. So, no surprise that this evening's Cape Canaveral sounding (XMR 29/23Z)
found a total PWAT of 0.44" and subsidence aloft. Under fair skies, lows by morning should range the 50s over much of the district, coolest north of Orlando where some sheltered locales may briefly touch the upper 40s. Our milder spots, per usual, will be found on the barrier islands south of the Cape where low 60s may hang on. On Saturday, a batch of cirrus currently along the NW Gulf Coast will float above high-based cumuli in the afternoon. We will remain void of any active weather as high pressure dominates. Expect highs in the upper 70s near the coastline and low 80s pretty much everywhere west of I-95.
AVIATION
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 856 PM EDT Fri Mar 29 2024
VFR and light/variable winds overnight, becoming SSW for Orlando area terminals (ESE at the coastal terminals) 5-12 KT on Saturday by midday and the afternoon. No significant weather is expected.
MARINE
Issued at 856 PM EDT Fri Mar 29 2024
Tonight-Saturday... (modified previous disc.) Still rough in the Gulf Stream right now due to a northeasterly swell opposing the current. Small Craft advisories will expire offshore at 10 pm as significant seas slowly subside to 6 feet across the Gulf Stream.
Seas continue to fall into the weekend, becoming widely 3-4 ft by Saturday night. Northerly winds diminish to 5-10 kts tonight, veering east by sunrise. Winds continue to veer south through Saturday as high pressure moves into the western Atlantic.
Saturday night-Tuesday... (previous disc.) Favorable boating conditions expected through early week ahead of an approaching cold front on Wednesday. South to southwest winds each day will back to the southeast in the afternoon with the formation of the east coast sea breeze. Wind speeds will increase to around 15 KT on Monday, and 15-20 KT on Tuesday. Seas will be 3-4ft on Sunday, subsiding to 2-3ft on Monday and Tuesday. Dry conditions prevailing with no mentionable rain chances through early week.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 856 PM EDT Fri Mar 29 2024
Saturday... (modified previous disc.) A dry airmass settled across east central Florida will promote fire sensitive conditions. Min RH values only slightly improve into Saturday, falling into the mid to upper 30s. Higher min RH values are forecast east of I-95, remaining between 40-50 percent. North winds become light and variable overnight, before veering south into Saturday afternoon 5-12 mph.
Sunday-Tuesday... (previous disc.) Drier air remains over east central Florida through early week. Min RH values are forecast to be in the upper 30s to low 40s across the interior each afternoon, with 40-50 percent forecast east of I-95. Light southerly winds on Sunday will increase slightly to around 10 mph on Monday before veering south to southwest on Tuesday and increase to 10-15 mph.
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION
Issued at 350 PM EDT Fri Mar 29 2024
Saturday night-Monday... Mid/upper level ridge across the GOMEX will slowly shift eastward through the period. The Bermuda high axis extending across the Florida peninsula and into the GOMEX will begin to slowly shift eastward Monday. Locally, expect dry conditions to prevail through the time period, with PoPs less than 5 percent areawide. Light south to southeast winds on Sunday will become southerly on Monday and increase to around 10 mph. The east coast sea breeze is forecast to form each afternoon, backing the winds to the east to southeast.
A warming trend will prevail through early week, with plenty of sunshine expected. Afternoon highs will be in the low to mid 80s on Sunday, with highs on Monday forecast in the low to mid 80s across the coast, and mid to upper 80s across the interior.
Tuesday-Thursday... Mid-level ridge axis will continue to shift eastwards through Tuesday before flattening out on Wednesday ahead of an approaching cold front. The cold front is progged to push across east central Florida Wednesday night into early Thursday morning. Locally, expect breezy south to southwest winds on Tuesday, which may keep the east coast sea breeze pinned closer to Interstate 95. Winds will become gusty on Wednesday ahead of the front, with winds decreasing slightly to 10-15 mph overnight as winds shift northwest behind the front. Winds will remain northwest on Thursday with speeds around 10-15 mph.
Pre-frontal convection is expected on Wednesday, with scattered to numerous showers and isolated lightning storms possible. The greatest potential for showers and storms (PoP 50-60 percent) will be across the north, with PoP 30-40 percent occurring across the south. Favorable conditions for convection will be modest instability (MUCAPE around 1000 J/kg), and sufficient shear (SFC-1km shear around 15-30 kt). Some limiting factors for convection will be increasing cloud cover, and fairly warm temperatures aloft (-7C at 500 mb). Main storm threats will be wind gusts up to 45 mph, occasional to frequent lightning strikes, and locally heavy downpours. Otherwise, expect mostly dry conditions on Tuesday and Thursday.
The warming trend will continue on Tuesday, with near record highs forecast, especially across the interior. Afternoon highs on Tuesday will be in mid to upper 80s along the coast, and upper 80s to low 90s west of I-95. Temperatures will be slightly cooler, especially across the north, on Wednesday, with highs in the low to mid 80s across the north, and mid to upper 80s across the south.
Significantly cooler and drier air will filter across the area on Thursday behind the front, brining afternoon highs to the mid to upper 70s, with near 80 degrees possible across the south. Overnight lows will be in 60s on Tuesday night, and in the 50s to low 60s Wednesday and Thursday nights.
