AMZ600 Synopsis For Jupiter Inlet To Ocean Reef Fl Out To 60 Nm And For East Cape Sable To Bonita Beach Fl Out To 60 Nm- 338 Am Est Mon Dec 9 2019
Synopsis..A high pressure system will remain centered north of the coastal waters through the work week, keeping generally southeast winds in place, breezy at times. Hazardous boating conditions are expected later in the week as strong ridge of high pressure off the east coast generates swells that are forecast to start impacting the atlantic waters by Friday.
Gulf stream hazards..SEas are forecast to build above 7 feet particularly across the palm beach gulf stream waters by late this week. The approximate location of the west wall of the gulf stream as of dec 07, 2019 at 1200 utc... 9 nautical miles east of fowey rocks. 17 nautical miles east of port everglades. 15 nautical miles east northeast of lake worth. 17 nautical miles east southeast of jupiter inlet.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 333 AM EST Mon Dec 9 2019
Short Term. (Today-Tuesday night): Model solutions are in fair agreement regarding the eastward progression of a broad high pressure system over the west Atlantic, bringing its SW periphery closer to SoFlo. This will translate in veering winds to a more SE flow today. And while the atmosphere remains relatively stable, any onshore flow that develops this afternoon could generate brief showers, especially over the Atlantic metro areas where the best pool of moisture resides.
The southerly component of the wind regime will help in further warm up afternoon temperatures today with highs in the low to mid 80s, warmer near the Gulf coast.
For Tuesday . the mid level ridge ENE of the area will further migrate east as an amplifying trough and associated long frontal system will stretch across much of the SE and mid Atlantic states. The Florida peninsula will then remain in its warm sector. Model soundings suggests gradually increasing PWATs to around 1.5 inches as, although still there is no significant lifting mechanism for maybe a few afternoon and/or evening brief showers at best.
The air mass will become moist and warm, and with overall flow remaining weak to moderate, Tuesday afternoon could feel muggy and uncomfortable at times, especially over interior and west Coast areas. This will further push afternoon highs into warmer values, with low-mid 80s over the eastern half of SoFlo, and in the upper 80s for the west-interior and Gulf coast.
Long Term. Wednesday and Thursday .
As we get to mid-week an upper level trough will be moving across the eastern US with an attendant cold front approaching the region Wednesday slowly moving down the peninsula. Models have come into better agreement of this front not making it to South Florida stalling just north of the region. With a stalled boundary in the vicinity, and moisture continuing to be advected in across the area this will allow for increased rain chances with scattered showers across South Florida Wednesday and Thursday.
Friday into Next Weekend .
A mid-level short wave moving into the Gulf, with a surface low developing in the Gulf of Mexico along the stalled out surface boundary. This low will continue to allow moisture to be elevated across the area as it is picked up by an upper level trough digging down the eastern US into north/central Florida and ejected northeastward up the eastern seaboard. Scattered showers across the region will continue to be possible. However, with the proximity of the low and how far south the mid-upper level trough digs south may allow for enough upper level dynamic instability to support some thunderstorm potential Friday into Saturday. As of now best dynamics look to remain north of the region so have left out the mention of thunder for now but it may need to be added in subsequent forecast if dynamic upper level support gets close enough to South Florida.
As the surface low deepens as it moves up the eastern seaboard it will allow a cold front to develop to its south. Models have this front moving through the region Saturday night into Sunday. Showers will be possible ahead of and along the front. No real cooler air behind this front but some drier air does try to filter down the peninsula.
Temperatures throughout the long term will remain at or above normal throughout the period.
Marine. Winds turn more southeasterly today with possible breezy periods, along with seas to 3-5 feet. Locally higher seas are possible over the Gulf Stream. Similar pattern continues on Tuesday, before a weather system approaches the area by mid week. Deteriorating marine conditions during the second half of the work week will result in hazardous boating conditions as winds, waves and shower activity increase. A large northerly swell will affect the northern portions of the Atlantic waters for the Thursday-early Friday time frame.
Aviation. VFR expected to prevail during the next 24 hours at all terminals. Light ESE winds will increase to around 10kt after 14-15Z, except APF where sea breeze circulations will veer winds to the SW around 10kt in the afternoon
