Issued 331 am edt Wed aug 21 2019 discussion... today and tonight: early this morning showers and thunderstorms have remained mostly over the florida straits and the gulf waters. Atlantic high pressure will allow east southeasterly flow across the region. Plenty of moisture remains behind the departing trough with the 00z mfl sounding having a pwat of 1.89 inches. Satellite derived precipitable water values show an area of 1.8-1.9 across the region. As activity begins to increase over the atlantic waters this morning, some of these isolated to scattered showers and storms will move over the east coast metro. Best rain chances for the east coast will be this morning through late morning, maybe lingering into early afternoon. Latest hi-res models keep the east coast mostly dry from mid- afternoon through the evening. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will shift over the interior and gulf coast this afternoon and evening. Temperatures today will be in the upper 80s to right around 90 degrees along the east coast with easterly flow, to low 90s across the interior and gulf. After sunset, convection will begin to move offshore and focus over the waters. Overnight lows will be in the mid to upper 70s to near |

A diurnally driven typical summertime afternoon with sea breeze driven convection bringing isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms across the region. Friday into the weekend: Friday into the weekend there will be another moisture surge into the region. As a tropical wave works across the carribean the northern portion will break off into a surface trough and approach south florida. This will lead to an increase in rain chances beginning Friday through the weekend. While it does not look like a complete washout, as convection will still be diurnally driven, showers and thunderstorms chances will increase. Rain chances will remain elevated through the weekend. Early next week: the moisture will linger across the area as a high pressure develops in the gulf with winds becoming more southerly continuing the moisture increase as we end the weekend and move into next week. Sea breezes will be the focus of convection but with southerly flow, highest chances will be over the interior, lake okeechobee and palm beach region.

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors.

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
