Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Melbourne FL 912 PM EDT Thu May 16 2024
DISCUSSION
Current-Overnight...The ECSB continues to slowly trudge inland this evening. Quite a discrepancy in PWATs behind the weak frontal boundary across the south-central peninsula, with values between 0.75-1.00 inches across the I-4 corridor up to 1.85 inches over Martin County. Even with intense surface heating earlier this is the difference between small Cumulus fields northward and ISOLD-WDLY SCT showers/ISOLD storms well south. Will watch for convection southward thru around mid-evening, then generally dry for land areas overnight. Some models suggesting patchy fog formation late overnight into early Fri morning across the Space/Treasure coasts and over to Okeechobee County. Confidence is low on exactly where, but we do have mention in the grids/zones for these areas. Overnight lows continue warm and mild and well into the 60s and L70s.
Fri
Previous
Some hi-res guidance shows a small MCS tracking E/SE across the NE Gulf early in the day, weakening as it reaches our northern sections during the late morning. Meanwhile, the frontal boundary will begin to lift back northward along with its assocd band of moisture. So have drawn a small 20 PoP across the area for isolated showers and storms mainly in the afternoon. Max temps will be hot with widespread mid 90s, even lower 90s at the coast due to a delayed sea breeze onset. With the increasing dewpoints/humidity, it will feel more oppressive with peak heat indices 100-105.
AVIATION
Light WRLY wind component over the interior ahead of the slowly inland moving sea breeze, with winds backing E/SE behind it. Any ISOLD evening convection from FPR-SUA will diminish into mid- evening. Will need to watch for patchy fog (MVFR VSBYs) late tonight/early Fri morning INVOF stalled frontal boundary, esp VRB/FPR. This boundary will lift back northward during the day on Fri with L/V morning winds becoming SW/W 5-10 kts over the interior, backing SERLY 10-12 kts at coastal terminals with sea breeze passage in the afternoon.
MARINE
Overnight/Fri...As previously mentioned, weak frontal boundary draped over the southern waters tonight will begin to lift northward during the day on Fri as light southerly to variable winds with a weak pressure gradient gradually giving way to a SERLY flow 7- 12 kts in the afternoon. Any convection over the Treasure Coast this evening will gradually diminish. ISOLD showers/storms in the forecast on Fri. Seas 1-2 ft.
FIRE WEATHER
Previous
Fri
No wind or low RH concerns. Above normal temps in the M90s, L90s coast with min RH values around 40 percent. Peak heat indices generally in the U90s to L100s.
