AMZ500 Synopsis For Flagler Beach To Jupiter Inlet Out To 60 Nm- 316 Am Edt Sat Apr 27 2024
Synopsis - Strong high pressure off the carolinas will cause onshore winds to freshen through the next couple days. Boating conditions worsen into today as the increasing onshore winds build local seas. Isolated showers return to the forecast and continue through the weekend, especially offshore. Some improvement to marine conditions is expected early next week.
Gulf stream hazards - Easterly winds near 20 knots increasing to around 25 knots by this evening. Seas building 5 to 7 feet through late afternoon and 7 to 8 feet tonight.

DISCUSSION
Issued at 303 AM EDT Sat Apr 27 2024
...High Risk for Rip Currents/Rough Surf at Area Beaches this Weekend...
...Deteriorating Boating Conditions across the Local Coastal Waters....
Breezy, Windy, Gusty East Winds Today
Current...Deepening and increasing onshore flow early this morning.
KMLB 88D showing occasional light precip across the Volusia coastal waters. Some of this light/brief activity may occasionally make it to the immediate coast, but mainly just a trace to a few hundredths.
Conditions otherwise mainly dry. The onshore flow and elevated winds will keep temperatures up overnight in the U60s to L70s for coastal locations and M60s well into the interior. Satellite imagery shows high clouds intruding from the WNW.
Today-Tonight...Mid-level shortwave troughing across the eastern CONUS will weaken slightly and we will see some weak shortwave impulses penetrate the FL peninsula, but will have little effect due to the stable marine airmass in place. Stout surface high pressure along the Eastern Seaboard will gradually weaken with center along the mid Atlc states by sunrise Sun morning. This will keep a persistent ERLY flow across the region. Wind speeds will increase to 16-23 mph sustained with frequent higher gusts across much of ECFL.
Wind gusts will approach 25-30 mph, and won't be surprised to see some gusts to 35 mph - especially along the coast. This tighter pressure gradient continues into the evening, with a diminishing trend overnight across the interior - though speeds will remain elevated and gusty closer to the coast.
Though we have a fairly stable airmass in place, the deep/onshore flow will permit for a few sprinkles and perhaps a brief light shower to push onto the coast occasionally - especially Cape northward. Again, a trace to a few hundredths is all that can be expected. PoPs overall are up to 10-15pct over land areas. We should see a bit more cloud-cover pushing onto the coast and inland during the day, on top of the intruding high clouds (from the west).
Afternoon highs in the U70s to L80s near the coast and L-M80s into the interior. Overnight mins remain mild and in the 60s areawide, perhaps some L70s along the immediate coast/barrier islands in play as winds stay elevated.
Expect a HIGH risk for numerous, strong, life-threatening rip currents at ALL central FL Atlc beaches today. Rough surf will also be present. Entering the surf zone today will be strongly discouraged!
Sunday-Monday...Surface high pressure will remain anchored just offshore from the Carolinas early in the week with a very strong and broad ridge aloft across most of the eastern CONUS. Deep onshore flow will persist due to the proximity of the surface high, with east winds of 15-20 mph. Little to no rain is forecast, although embedded oceanic moisture may lead to isolated showers over the Atlantic waters. Confidence in showers moving onshore is not high enough to include in the forecast, so have kept mention away from land areas on Sunday and Monday. Easterly flow will actually keep temperatures just a bit below normal on Sunday in the upper 70s to lower 80s at the coast and approaching the mid 80s inland. Highs warm a few degrees on Monday (closer to average values for late April). Seasonal lows in the mid 60s.
Tuesday-Saturday...The remainder of the forecast period will be high and dry as the surface high drifts slightly seaward through midweek but still keeps influence on the local pattern. Onshore winds continue this week, increasing in the afternoon with the east coast sea breeze. No PoPs in the forecast through next weekend, although could see hints of light onshore moving showers similar to early in the week, but do not have confidence to include. Temperatures by Tuesday reach the upper 80s inland; still lower 80s at the coast, with the 90s making an appearance to begin the month of May. While it will be warm, lower dewpoints will keep the oppressiveness at bay for at least a bit longer. Lows in the mid/upper 60s persist this week.
AVIATION
(06Z TAFs)
Issued at 303 AM EDT Sat Apr 27 2024
Mainly VFR conds, though we will see a bit more in the way of marine stratocu streaming onto the coast, to go along with the intruding high clouds (from the west). Even with the stable airmass, we will see some light coastal shower activity, especially Cape northward, and some of this (sprinkles/brief light showers) could affect coastal TAF sites. Confidence and coverage not there for inclusion of VCSH. Otherwise, a tight pressure gradient today with ERLY wind speeds approaching 15-20 kts, perhaps higher along the coast. There will be frequent higher gusts 20-25 kts - perhaps approaching 30 kts at some coastal TAF sites. Winds will be slow to diminish during the evening - staying elevated and gusty at the coast.
MARINE
Issued at 303 AM EDT Sat Apr 27 2024
Today-Tonight...Deteriorating boating conditions as the pressure gradient tightens with ERLY winds 15-20 kts this morning increasing to 20-25 kts by late afternoon-evening, gradually backing down again late overnight to 15-20 kts by daybreak Sun morning. Initial seas 3-5 ft will build to 5-6 ft near shore and 6-7 ft offshore by late afternoon, and further to 6-7 ft near shore and 7-8 ft Gulf Stream tonight. Will begin early Small Craft Advisories (SCA's)
for the offshore marine legs and near shore Treasure Coast for the early morning coastal waters forecast, gradually adding the near shore Brevard/Volusia waters early this afternoon. SCA's will continue tonight areawide. Very isolated sprinkles/light showers (light precip) possible over the next 24 hours.
Sunday-Tuesday...While boating conditions improve in the latter part of the weekend, 6 ft seas will remain through Sunday evening, subsiding into the early part of the work week. East winds of 15-20 knots Sunday will diminish below 15 knots by Monday, varying east to southeast through mid-week. Isolated light showers over the Atlantic water will be possible each day.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 303 AM EDT Sat Apr 27 2024
Today...Deep onshore (ERLY) winds increase 15-20 mph with frequent higher gusts up to around 25 mph and perhaps 30-35 mph along the immediate coast at times this afternoon. Min RHs stay above critical levels, 40-45pct along the Kissimmee River and 45-60pct towards the coast. Conditions mainly dry outside of a sprinkle or brief light shower along the coast (esp Cape northward).
Dispersions will be Very Good to Excellent!
Sunday-Wednesday...East winds of 15-20 mph on Sunday will diminish through the early part of the work week. Temperatures will begin a warming trend, reaching the upper 80s to low 90s by mid-week. Min RH values will be above critical levels Sunday and Monday, but will drop below 40% west of Orlando by Tuesday and Wednesday. Rain remains out of the forecast this week.
