DISCUSSION
Issued at 221 PM EDT Wed May 1 2024
Upper level troughing moves off the eastern seaboard into the western Atlantic. This will allow for broad upper ridging to build in over the southeast U.S. starting today and continuing through the end of the week. By Saturday, the upper ridge moves near the Bahamas while weak troughing moves through the southeast U.S. This will be short-lived as the ridge builds back in by Monday and continues through the middle of next week. On the surface, high pressure near Bermuda ridges westward over Florida and will dominate the weather pattern through the week. There will be some minor north/south movements of the ridge axis during the forecast period as an area of low pressure moves north of the area over the weekend, but overall this ridge of high pressure will be the dominant weather feature through the period. Rain chances will remain on the low side (10-30 percent) through the period. Above average temperatures are expected with daytime highs topping out in the mid 80's along the coast to low 90's over the interior. Overnight lows will dip only into the mid 60's to around 70.
AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 221 PM EDT Wed May 1 2024
Prevailing VFR conditions with winds less than 12 knots expected through the forecast period. Rain and storm chances remain on the low side again, so will only mention at LAL/PGD/FMY/RSW for VCSH during the late afternoon hours between 20-03Z.
