10/6/2018 Colors of tide XTide graphs changed to emphasize that they were upgraded. See next note. Comments welcome. 10/4/2018 I have fixed XTide and updated the harmonic files. There were some name changes so you might have to click EDIT to find the new station name. |

(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus62 kmlb 161937 afdmlb area forecast discussion national weather service melbourne fl 237 pm est Fri nov 16 2018 Discussion Colder than normal again tonight with gradual warming trend into the weekend... tonight-Saturday... High pressure centered across the northern gulf coast expands northward and shifts toward the mid-atlantic coast. This will veer low level winds onshore later tonight into Saturday which will begin to modify the dry and cool airmass in place. Still, a light drainage flow and favorable radiational cooling conditions will lead to another colder than normal night. Lows will again fall into the 40s over much of the area, with coastal locations south of the CAPE potentially remaining at or just above the 50 degree mark. Into Saturday, mostly sunny skies and relatively light onshore winds will allow temps to warm into the low to mid 70s, potentially upper 70s along the treasure coast. Sun-mon... An expansive area of high pressure extending from the deep south to the ohio river valley will stretch east over the western atlantic basin through Monday. Local onshore winds will allow scattered to occasionally broken marine stratocumulus clouds to push onshore just along the coast. There looks to be enough low-level moisture for a few light showers to move onshore the volusia coast Sunday afternoon. Otherwise, expect mostly dry conditions with party cloudy skies. Morning lows will be in the low 60s in the orlando metro and along the coast, with upper 50s across the interior. Afternoon temps will climb to near 80 degrees areawide. As the high pressure pushes away from the area, local winds will become northerly by Monday afternoon with just a slight chance of showers over the northernmost and southern waters. Temps will be near seasonal: highs in the upper 70s north, and low 80s south; morning lows in the low 60s along the coast orlando metro, and upper 50s elsewhere. Tue-fri... A mostly zonal upper-level pattern over the eastern conus to start the holiday week will result in slight chance of showers along the coast and over the waters as northeast winds will favor development of marine showers. Temps will remain at or slightly above seasonal values as highs climb into upper 70s low 80s, and morning lows drop into the upper 50s low 60s. There is high uncertainty with the extended forecast as GFS and ecmwf continue to show potent shortwave trough (whose origins can be traced back to an eastern pacific cutoff low) traversing the subtropical jet stream across the southern great basin to the southern plains on Wednesday, and into the northeastern gulf of mexico by Thursday Friday. Resulting height falls begin to manifest over the florida peninsula by late Thursday morning with surface low pressure development hinted at over the central eastern gulf of mexico. Models are not properly depicting rain chances across the area if the low does manifest, pops are capped at 40-50 percent with |
chance of rain and slight chance of thunderstorms from Thursday night into Friday. It's still way too early to determine any potential for severe storms, though upper-level dynamics, instability, available moisture, and the southerly track of the surface low are historically good indicators. Aviation MainlyVFR. Bkn MVFR CIGS still possible at least through the remainder of the afternoon from kvrb-ksua, but marine stratocu deck should continue to decrease in coverage into tonight. Marine Tonight-Saturday... Northerly winds around 15 knots will continue into late afternoon, and then will drop to 10-15 knots tonight into Saturday as they veer onshore. Based on latest buoy obs, nwps guidance has been coming in a little too high offshore, so will limit seas to 6 feet over the gulf stream and allow the SCA to expire with the afternoon package. Small craft will still need to exercise caution, however, if venturing into these waters tonight. Sun-mon... Boating conditions largely favorable with lightening gradient winds ascd with broad high pressure north of the region. East winds on Sunday will become north on Monday, remaining around 5 to 10 mph. Expect seas around 3 feet near the coast and up to 4 to 5 feet well offshore. Tue-wed... No headlines are anticipated through mid week with seas around 3 feet near the coast and up to 4 feet offshore. North winds at 10 mph on Tuesday will become northeast at 10 to 15 mph on Wednesday. Seas of 3 to 4 feet nearshore and 4 to 5 feet offshore on Tuesday will decrease to 3 to 4 feet across the waters on Wednesday. Fire weather Low level flow veers onshore into the weekend which will modify the dry and cool airmass in place. This will keep min rh values above critical levels, but still may see rh values fall into the 40s over the interior into the afternoon.

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
