VCSH/VCTS along and ahead of the east coast sea breeze this afternoon, gradually clearing at the coastal terminals. TEMPOs included at MCO/ISM (21/23Z) and LEE (22/24Z) where there is the greatest confidence in TSRA impacts. Coverage of showers and storms across the interior are forecast to diminish after 02/03Z.
South to southeast winds become east with the passage of the sea breeze, generally remaining around 10 kts or less. Light and variable winds tonight.
UPDATE
Issued at 1050 AM EDT Wed Jul 3 2024
Sfc analysis shows weak Atlc low level ridge axis continues to lift north, currently located across NE FL. A more dominant onshore flow on the south side of this ridge will produce an earlier sea breeze onset. In fact, radar, satellite and sfc observations indicate the sea breeze boundary has formed along the entire EC FL coast with a little better momentum south of the Cape. Isolated showers have formed along the boundary and these will progress inland with the sea breeze and develop into lightning storms. The isolated showers over the Atlc will diminish as they approach the coast due to the subsidence behind the sea breeze.
Early morning Cape sounding shows considerable low level moisture so not surprising diurnal cu field has been quick to form but some drier air is present above 700 mb producing DCAPE of 1000J/kg which should support a better chance for stronger wind gusts in storms. Rain/storm chances will be highest over the interior late this aftn and early this evening as a result of sea/lake/outflow boundary collisions. Widespread mid 90s across the interior and lower 90s coast will combine with high dewpoints to produce peak heat indices 103 to 107 for most of the area. Heat stress will be a concern for those spending long durations outside esp in direct sun.

Today-Sunday... A high pressure axis will hold north of Florida through Friday, leading to light daytime SE breezes up to 10 KT (locally enhanced at the coast during the afternoon). Winds become light SW late in the overnight hours. The high pressure axis will settle southward through the local Atlantic this weekend, with light (5-12 KT) S/SE winds by day turning offshore at night. Seas 2-3 FT through the period, with a light to moderate chop over the Intracoastal. A few showers or isolated storms are forecast during the overnight and early morning hours offshore, shifting closer to the coast in the late morning and early afternoon hours.
