New UPDATE, AVIATION
UPDATE
Dry and warm atmosphere remains over the region while a frontal boundary sags into the Deep South tightening the pressure gradient between the persistent surface ridging over the area to produce occasionally gusty easterly winds today through this evening. This stronger E low level flow will keep the Bay and Gulf breezes pinned to the immediate coast allowing interior areas to remain warm today and through the weekend.
AVIATION
(12Z TAFS)
VFR conditions continue with FEW-SCT fair wx cu field around 5k ft today and increasing and occasionally gusty easterly winds with the Gulf sea breeze pinned to the coast. Expect an evening easterly surge before winds slowly decrease overnight.
.SHORT TERM (TDY-SAT)...
Issued at 411 AM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
Clear skies and temperatures in the 60s across the Sunshine State.
A persistent upper level ridge slides and builds along the US East Coast. This will keep dry airmass and rain free conditions through the forecast period. Easterly winds gradually become breezy today and over the weekend, but attempt to shift onshore in areas along the coast this afternoon. Highs climb up to near 90 but dewpoints remain in the 60s, which would make conditions feel a more comfortable. Increasing clouds should keep slightly cooler conditions over the interior, but temperatures get toasty along the coast on Saturday.
.LONG TERM (SUN-THU)...
Issued at 411 AM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
By early next week, model guidance brings an disturbance to move north of the area resulting in gusty winds as the pressure gradient tightens.
Winds should decrease through the first half of the week and the sea breeze returns at least to coastal areas. Afternoon highs warm up into the low 90s areawide while overnight lows stay in the 60s.
MARINE
Issued at 411 AM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
High pressure ridge prevails across the Gulf waters through the period. Easterly winds shifting onshore each afternoon remaining below 15 knots with seas of around 2 feet or less through the end of the week. Then, the interaction between the ridge and a disturbance moving north of the area could bring cautionary level winds to the waters for the weekend.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 411 AM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
High pressure continues to dominate across fire districts through the next several days. Minimum humidities are expected to be at or just below critical values each afternoon. Easterly winds increase through the day and should shift onshore at the immediate coast. As a result, high dispersions are anticipated in some areas during the weekend. Winds should remain below Red Flag criteria during this time.
