DISCUSSION
Issued at 158 PM EDT Thu Jul 4 2024

A weak frontal boundary between the Bahamas and the Carolinas continues to wash out over the next 24 hours. Weak high pressure ridges through the center of the state to another high pressure center over the northeast Gulf of Mexico. This is keeping a very light wind flow over the Florida peninsula with sea breeze driven showers and storms prevailing each day through the end of the week and into the weekend. Abundant moisture with PWAT values between 1.8 - 2.3 inches will persist through the forecast period. Any showers and storms that do develop will be slow moving and may cause some localized flooding. Nocturnal land breeze showers and storms can also be expected over the eastern gulf waters during the early morning hours. Daytime highs will top out in the low to mid 90's with heat indices reaching 105-112 degrees. This has warranted the issuance of a Heat Advisory valid from 11 am through 6 pm this evening. The hot and humid conditions will continue over the next few days with daily Heat Advisories likely needed.
