New UPDATE
UPDATE
Issued at 920 PM EDT Sun May 19 2024
The forecast remains on track across east central Florida tonight.
A few lingering showers will continue moving offshore, diminishing across the local Atlantic waters overnight. Mostly dry conditions are then forecast to persist across the peninsula tonight, with westerly winds remaining around 5 mph. Patchy fog may develop late tonight into early Monday morning, particularly near the I-4 corridor and areas northward, but confidence in this was too low to include with the forecast. We will monitor overnight and make adjustments as needed. Temperatures will be a bit closer to normal values across east central Florida tonight, with lows in the upper 60s to low 70s.

VFR conditions forecast across all terminals overnight. Lingering VCTS near SUA will diminish by 01Z, with dry conditions elsewhere.
Westerly winds overnight around 5 knots will pick up around 15Z out of the north-northwest around 10 knots. Gusts to 20 to 25 knots will be possible Monday afternoon, and VCSH cannot be ruled out across the interior terminals (MCO/ISM/SFB) and along the coast from TIX southward. Higher confidence in VCTS across the Treasure Coast terminals after 17Z. Conditions are forecast to improve after 22Z.

Tonight...Weak frontal boundary pushes southward into the waters into tonight, with southerly winds around 10 knots veering and becoming west to northwest late in the night. Scattered strong to severe storms will continue across the waters, mainly south of Melbourne through sunset, and then convection will gradually diminish overnight. Can't rule out some isolated storms developing and pushing offshore near to north of Melbourne though through this evening, which may also produce some strong gusts and small hail.
Seas will range from 2-3 feet.
This Week...(Modified Previous Discussion) Seas build up to 5-6 ft offshore late Monday night as surface winds veer NNE and briefly increase to around 15 kt. Seas will generally range 3-5 ft Tuesday and fall further mid to late week as high pressure builds over the waters. Rain and storm chances remain elevated on Monday before gradually tapering off mid to late week, as well. Winds NE on Tuesday, 10-15 kt, veering easterly Wednesday and beyond at or around 10 kt. The east coast sea breeze may locally increase wind speeds to around 15 kt each afternoon closer to the coast.
