DISCUSSION
Issued at 355 AM EDT Mon Jul 8 2024
High pressure remains over the state this morning with continued hot and humid conditions today prompting a Heat Advisory issuance effective from noon to 6 PM for heat indices as high as 108-111 degrees. Ridge axis continues to gradually shift southward with S-SE flow this morning evident via pre-dawn coastal and offshore showers and storms currently spreading N-NW over W FL and E Gulf locations. Flow turns onshore later this morning into afternoon as the sea breeze progresses inland with accompanying shower/storm chances migrating from coastal to interior locations where highest afternoon and evening PoPs are likely. Highs generally in the lower to mid 90s with feels like temps in the triple digits.
SW flow pattern persists through the week featuring highest PoPs over the E Gulf and coastal areas during the AM hours before shifting to interior locations during the PM hours. After today, moderating temps will favor slightly less hot and humid conditions reducing the likelihood of reaching heat advisory criteria for most of the area. Highs are likely to run in the lower 90s with heat indices of around 100-105 degrees expected. Ridge axis expected to shift north late week into the weekend shifting the SW flow in place for the majority of the week to easterly into the weekend.
AVIATION
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 801 AM EDT Mon Jul 8 2024
Thundestorm activity looks to mainly be in the afternoon along the coastal TAF sites before shifting inland and towards the east coast in the afternoon. Bumped up timing of VCTS due to this and ended it earlier also at coastal sites. VFR conditions and winds mainly below 10 knots outside of thunderstorms.
MARINE
Issued at 355 AM EDT Mon Jul 8 2024
Weak high pressure remains over the waters with generally light winds and seas 2 ft or less through the week with no headlines expected. Main concern will be thunderstorms producing locally gusty winds, higher seas, and lightning for mariners.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 355 AM EDT Mon Jul 8 2024
No fire weather concerns expected with continued warm and humid summertime conditions with light winds and afternoon seabreezes.
The light flow will lead to areas of fairly low dispersion index values, with gusty erratic winds and dangerous lightning possible with thunderstorms.
