New LONG TERM

SHORT TERM
(Rest of today through Wednesday)
Issued at 1234 PM EST Tue Nov 5 2024

Upper level ridging remains prominent over the western Atlantic waters, as southern Florida remains within the southwest quadrant of this feature. Simultaneously, Tropical Storm Rafael continues to trek towards the north-northwest across the northwest Carribean waters with time. This strengthening system paired with expansive western Atlantic ridging will result in a tightened pressure gradient, allowing for breezy conditions along the east coast. As a result, a Wind Advisory is in effect for the immediate east coast through this evening; frequent wind gusts around 30-35 mph will likely impacts these coastal locations. The presence of shallow moisture still lingers within the boundary layer, which suggests that on and off showers will continue through the remainder of the day. Expect meager rainfall accumulations and generally short-lived activity. High temperatures today will generally top out in the lower 80s along the east coast to the mid to upper 80s across the interior as well as Southwest Florida.

Wednesday will feature the continued north-northwest movement of Tropical Storm Rafael, which may be a Hurricane as it approaches the straits of Florida. At this time, the National Hurricane Center has this system remaining well removed from South Florida land zones, though this storm may result in dangerous marine conditions across the Gulf waters. The current forecast track and consensus model guidance suggests that the system will steer further west and possibly into the central Gulf of Mexico. While there is uncertainty regarding the exact track of the system, marine hazards for the Gulf waters remain the primary threat regardless of the exact eventual track. Regarding winds, the latest wind speed probabilities are roughly 20-30% chance of tropical storm force winds along Coastal Collier, with lower values around 10-20% for interior and eastern locations. Regardless, breezy E/SE winds will result in gusts along the coast of 30-40 mph, with 20-30 mph gusts inland on Wednesday. There is also a marginal risk for excessive rainfall on Wednesday, as a swath of higher precipitable water values overspreads portions of South Florida. The forcing for ascent and window for maximal rainfall will be limited, but cannot rule up to around 2-3 inches as a reasonable worst case scenario, mainly for southwest Florida. Finally, there is a limited tornado threat, with the primary area of concern being over interior and southwest portions of the region. The presence of enhanced storm relative helicity coupled with moderate instability may allow for a few tornadoes to spawn.

LONG TERM
(Wednesday night through next Monday)
Issued at 241 PM EST Tue Nov 5 2024

Tropical Storm Rafael will continue to move in a northwestward direction across the Gulf of Mexico during the first half of the extended period (Thursday-Saturday). Although this system is not expected to directly impact South Florida, enough moisture will be present in its outermost bands and eastern periphery to potentially support isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms across our area on Thursday.

Drier air will begin to filter in over the area on Friday as Rafael moves further westward, and conditions will rapidly improve. This will generally quell rainfall chances through the weekend, although a quick passing shower or two cannot be ruled out, most notably Sunday-Monday as low level moisture advects back across the region with an approaching surface level low.

Temperatures during the long term will be around to slightly above normal, with highs generally in the mid 80s across South Florida each day. Overnight lows will range from the low 70s near the Lake to the mid-upper 70s along the coasts.

AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1130 AM EST Tue Nov 5 2024

SCT showers continue across South FL with VCSH and periods of sub-VFR likely for the remainder of the day. With fast paced wind flow, the showers have brought short-lived MVFR/IFR conditions to east coast TAF sites due to brief downpours and gusts up to 40KT.
Potential for SCT showers to continue late into the evening and overnight. Winds generally E/ENE around 15-20KT with gusts up to 25-30KT. -SHRA/RA and sub-VFR conditions likely throughout the day on Wednesday, but confidence too low for TAFs at the moment.

MARINE
Issued at 1234 PM EST Tue Nov 5 2024

Winds will remain elevated across the local waters during the early to middle portion of the week, resulting in hazardous marine conditions during this time frame. A Gale Warning is presently in effect through early morning Wednesday for the Atlantic waters, as frequent gusts in excess of 34 kt are likely across the entire Atlantic waters. Strong easterly winds will also allow seas to build up to around 7-10 feet. Across the Gulf waters, moderate to fresh easterly flow will prevail today, with seas ranging between 2 to 3 feet. As Tropical Storm Rafael moves through the northwestern Caribbean Sea and into the southeastern Gulf of Mexico, winds and seas across the Gulf waters will rapidly increase towards the middle of the week.

BEACHES
Issued at 1234 PM EST Tue Nov 5 2024

Strong and gusty onshore winds will keep a high risk of rip currents in place across the Atlantic Coast beaches throughout most of the week. In addition, large breaking waves of 6 to 8 feet in the surf zone will be possible across the Palm Beach and Broward County beaches during the early to middle portion of the week creating dangerous swimming and surfing conditions.
