.SHORT TERM (TDY-Tonight)...
Issued at 455 AM EDT Fri May 3 2024
Other than a few clouds decorating the skies along the Nature Coast, it is a mostly clear morning across the Florida Peninsula.
Ridging aloft and surface high pressure remains in place today.
This should keep light easterly winds in place with the afternoon sea breeze shifting winds onshore. Slightly drier conditions are anticipated which should limit how much activity, if any, develops today. Most of the guidance keeps the highest chances across souther parts of the state. In addition, afternoon temperatures will be around 90 degrees, so residents and visitors should stay hydrated to prevent any heat related illnesses.
.LONG TERM (SAT-THU)...
Issued at 455 AM EDT Fri May 3 2024
During the weekend, an upper level disturbance approaches the stat, but it is expected to fall apart as it moves northeast.
As a result, moisture increase over the Peninsula, which should support higher rain chances into Sunday. Then, Bermuda High builds back in bringing very warm and much drier conditions through the rest of the period. If materializes, well above normal temperatures are possible with the potential for record breaking highs by the middle of next week. Afternoon highs in the mid to upper 90s and overnight lows near 70 degrees. East to southeasterly winds prevail becoming westerly each afternoon behind the sea breeze.

(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 138 AM EDT Fri May 3 2024

WInds become breezy through the day but should decrease through the evening. Slightly drier conditions should limit shower and storms activity but there is a non-zero chance of isolated showers near southern TAF sites later in the afternoon. Otherwise, no concerns.
