Area Discussion for - Miami-South Florida, FL
(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus62 kmfl 201934 afdmfl area forecast discussion national weather service miami fl 334 pm edt Sat jul 20 2019 Discussion Ongoing convection across much of south florida is expected to continue throughout the remainder of the afternoon and into the evening hours as unsettled weather begins to take precedence. Focus of most of the storms will be across the gulf coast and lake okeechobee region, though the atlantic waters and east coast metro are not in the clear, especially as an inverted trough pushes into south florida from the bahamas. Main hazards for the remainder of today will be gusty winds, frequent lightning, and small hail. Overnight lows tonight are forecast to be in the upper 70s to near 80 along the east coast with low to mid 70s elsewhere. Things get spicy overnight tonight into tomorrow as the aforementioned inverted trough creeps towards south florida. The environment will still feature ample moisture (pws in the 2.00 to 2.50 inch range) with additional moisture reinforcements coming with the trough. A parade of mid-level vort maxima (most evident in the 500 mb levels) march across the west coast of south florida overnight as well, further aiding in the instability. To add to this already complex forecast are relatively cool 500 mb temps. Gfs guidance suggest temps to waver in the -8c to -9c range from now through Monday with slightly warmer temps advecting in afterwards (-6c to -7c Monday afternoon through the remainder of the forecast period). To put these temperatures into scope, the average 500 mb temp for this time of year is around -7.4c. With all of this in mind, higher rain chances will be possible Saturday night into Sunday morning compared to south florida's normal diurnally driven weather pattern. Scattered to numerous storms are forecast Sunday afternoon and Sunday evening, especially as the atmosphere heats up. Main hazards besides the routine lightning, gusty winds, and heavy rainfall will be the concern for possible minor localized flooding, particularly for urban areas. Taking a quick side note for two sentences -- models are showing a very brief and shallow coverage of the saharan air layer (sal) Sunday with surface concentration at only about 20-40 micrograms per cubic meter. Essentially this will need to be monitored in regards to the precipitation size spectrum and potentially stronger updrafts. For the beginning of next week, Monday looks to be the quietest day weather wise. A ribbon of drier air (pw's around 1.50 inches) drags across the region but this is short lived as an approaching mid-level trough and associated surface boundary pushes into the region from the north. The amplification of the mid-level trough axis continues to reach into the northeastern gulf of mexico by late Wednesday into early Thursday. As the trough sits to the |
north and west of our area and the ridge retreats a bit back into the atlantic, the rest of the week could see quite the unsettled weather pattern with scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms outside of the diurnal sea breeze norms. Eventually by the end of the extended forecast period, high pressure will attempt to regain control, but until we reach that point in time, the pattern will bear watching for the potential of excessive rainfall and gusty winds. Marine While the overall pattern with the ridge of high pressure at the surface will keep a generally light southeasterly flow across the area most of the period, there will be periods of unsettled weather this weekend into next week that mariners should maintain awareness of. In particular, the passage of a trough late tonight through Sunday and the approach of another trough early in the week could cause an increase in storms over the waters. The main concern with any storms remains gusty winds, lightning, and heavy rain. Beach forecast... the persistent southeasterly flow will continue to permit a non-zero rip current risk along the atlantic beaches of south florida through the weekend and into next week. It is possible, particularly if the passing troughs into early next week develop a bit stronger wind and create surges of southeasterly to easterly flow that could enable a moderate rip current risk at times along the atlantic beaches. Aviation Showers and thunderstorms are ongoing and continue to develop over the interior and west coast. MVFR ifr conditions for vis and CIGS are possible for kapf with the gulf sea breeze developing. For the east coast TAF sites most of the activity has moved west of the terminals however there is additional development in the atlantic moving towards east coast. Have reintroduced vcsh fll and points southward to account for development in the atlantic moving nw. Southeast flow will prevail throughout along east coast.

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. |
