New UPDATE, AVIATION
FOR THE EVENING UPDATE
Issued at 734 PM EDT Sat Apr 27 2024 Dry warm but rather typical late April pattern continues. High pressure surface and aloft will hold over the region through Monday with large scale subsidence creating generally partly cloudy skies and temperatures several degrees above normal each day. High broken cloudiness over the area this evening and overnight will move east of the state on Sunday. Gradient remains rather tight, and although winds will decrease to around 10 MPH by midnight, gusty east winds will redevelop on Sunday.
A weak progressive U/L trough will push across the forecast area on Tuesday with a slight chance of a shower, mainly over the interior. High pressure surface and aloft will build back over the area on Wednesday and will persist through the end of the week, with highs around 90 away from the coast each day.
DISCUSSION
Persistent springtime upper ridging continues to stretch from the N Carib, over the FL Peninsula and up into the Eastern Seaboard with subsidence aloft to keep the warm and mainly dry conditions in place through the weekend. At lower levels breezy easterly flow continues around the strong high pressure center in the W Atlantic as a result of the tight pressure gradient. Have seen some light low topped sprinkles on radar in this flow as well but don't expect much in the way of measurable rain and will keep blind 10 PoPs mainly interior areas.
The upper ridge will finally get suppressed early-mid-week as a shortwave moves through the Deep South. Surface high pressure in the W Atlantic weakens but will continue to dominate at the low levels keeping the area warm and dry while the sea breeze returns at least to coastal areas. Some models hinting at isolated interior seabreeze showers Tuesday afternoon but will hold less than 20 PoPs for now in those areas.
By late week, ridging becomes reestablished aloft to keep the warm/dry sensible wx conditions in place.
AVIATION
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 734 PM EDT Sat Apr 27 2024 VFR conditions will prevail for the next 24 hours with SCT-BKN250 tonight, becoming SCT040-050 SCT250 at all terminals on Sunday.
Breezy east winds will continue.
MARINE
High pressure with a tight pressure gradient continues over the E Gulf waters with winds around 20 kts and seas 4-7 ft to produce hazardous SCA conditions through the evening surge and tonight.
Brief decrease in E winds Sun morning before another afternoon/evening increase with periods of SCEC/SCA likely into early next week.
High pressure remains in the region as winds slightly decrease into mid week with the afternoon sea breeze returning.
FIRE WEATHER
Warm and dry springtime high pressure remains in the region with daily minimum RH values at or just below critical levels each afternoon. Easterly winds become occasionally gusty each afternoon into evening with high dispersions in some areas. Even though fuels remain just moist enough to preclude red flag warnings, an elevated fire weather risk remains with these conditions.
