New AVIATION

SHORT TERM
(Rest of today through Tuesday)
Issued at 1206 PM EDT Mon Apr 21 2025

Stout mid-level ridging remains established across the region today as a subsequent (impressively) strong subsidence inversion remains in place with copious amounts of dry air aloft. Take your pick of ACARS data from any of the reporting airports from South Florida this afternoon and you will see the same general representation over and over again, dry air throughout the vertical column with a very strong capping inversion at roughly 825-850mb and a small moist level at 250mb (representative of upper level cloud cover). For the remainder of the day, easterly winds will remain breezy across the region with a widespread/overspreading low level cumulus field briskly advecting from east to west across the area. The sliver of moisture in the upper levels will coincide with some thin upper level cirrus drifting from west to east aloft from time to time.

A series of shortwaves propagating along in the subtropical jet- stream currently oriented in a southwest to northeast configuration over the central to northeastern United States will gradually erode the periphery of the ridge and result in slow weakening of this persistent mid-level feature. Although the mid-level ridge will continue to weaken, our prevailing weather pattern will remain status quo as surface ridging continues a surface easterly flow regime.

Highs each afternoon will be in the low to middle 80s across the east coast, with low 90s expected across portions of western south Florida. Lows will drop into the low 60s across the interior and west coasts (away from the easterly maritime influence) with temps in the low 70s along the east coast.

LONG TERM
(Tuesday night through next Sunday)
Issued at 212 PM EDT Mon Apr 21 2025

Models depict a busy weather pattern across much of the Nation to start the long term with a trough/low complex moving into the E CONUS and pushing further south the ridge across the region. But the ridge remains strong enough to keep SoFlo under overall subsidence, with model soundings still showing PWATs below or around 1 inch, and generally dry air above 850mb through Thursday morning. Therefore, dry and stable weather should continue through that time.

By Thursday afternoon and through Friday, ensembles and Euro guidance show fair agreement in having the aforementioned trough pushing the ridge further to the ENE of SoFlo while eroding it. This will allow for moisture to begin filtering into the area, especially with returning robust onshore flow/sea breeze circulations in the afternoon hours. Unfortunately, the air mass is not expected to modify enough to result in significant rain activity. Latest POps/Wx coverage remains in the 15-25% range Thursday and Friday, and 20-30% by Saturday. Can't rule out an isolated thunderstorm or two with daytime heating, and with sea breeze boundaries becoming the main focal point for taller/deeper convection.

Expect afternoon high temperatures to remain in the mid to upper 80s through much of SoFlo, except for a few interior locations potentially reaching the low 90s at times. Morning lows should remain in the mid-upper 60s inland, and upper 60s to low 70s near the coasts.

AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 108 AM EDT Tue Apr 22 2025

VFR will prevail through the TAF with moderate easterly flow continuing. A brief wind shift onshore will be likely at APF later this afternoon.

MARINE
Issued at 1206 PM EDT Mon Apr 21 2025

Cautionary conditions will persist through the remainder of the week across the Atlantic and Gulf waters. So while boating conditions are expected to slightly improve, they're expected to remain at least somewhat hazardous to small craft through the end of the week.

BEACHES
Issued at 1206 PM EDT Mon Apr 21 2025

Moderate easterly flow will continue through the week and will support a higher than usual risk for life threatening rip currents.
A High Rip Current Risk remains in effect today for the east coast of South Florida.
