Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 253 PM EST Tue Nov 28 2023

New LONG TERM

SHORT TERM
(Rest of today through Wednesday)
Issued at 1212 PM EST Tue Nov 28 2023

Northerly flow associated with surface high pressure over the Deep South continues to bring in refreshing cooler air to South FL. An upper level trough moving across the eastern US today will result in mid and high clouds moving across the area through tonight, but then drier mid/upper levels on Wednesday will result in a mostly sunny day tomorrow. Tonight will be a bit tricky with the temp forecast due to the mid/upper clouds, but still went on the lower end of guidance especially over interior SW FL where there is a higher confidence of clearing in the pre-dawn hours. Overnight lows will range from the low to mid 40s over interior SW FL, to around 60 over SE FL. The cooler air will remain in place for at least one more day on Wednesday, with below normal afternoon high temps in the 70s.

LONG TERM
(Wednesday night through next Monday)
Issued at 230 PM EST Tue Nov 28 2023

High pressure centered off to the north will continue to shift into the western Atlantic through the end of the week. While mainly dry conditions will continue through Friday, this will cause the wind to gradually shift and become east southeasterly during this time frame. The wind shift will also usher in a warming trend as high temperatures will rise into the upper 70s to around 80 on Thursday. Friday's high temperatures will rise into the lower 80s across the east coast to the mid 80s across interior portions of Southwest Florida.

Heading into the upcoming weekend, a mid level ridge will push northward towards the region from the Carribean. This will allow for the east to southeasterly wind flow to continue along with the warming trend with temperatures. At the same time, a frontal boundary will slowly push through the Southeastern portion of the country and into Northern and Central Florida on Saturday and Sunday. While South Florida will remain in the warm sector throughout the weekend, moisture advection will be taking place during this time frame. While many areas will remain dry through the weekend, there will be a slight chance of showers along the breeze mainly over eastern areas. High temperatures on Saturday and Sunday will generally range from the mid 80s along the east coast to the upper 80s over interior portions of Southwest Florida.

The latest guidance remains in disagreement with handling the timing and intensity of the front off to the north early next week. While models generally agree in pushing the front through South Florida, the timing differences are still rather significant as some of the models push it through on Monday, and others push it through a day or two later. Since this is towards the end of the forecast period combined with the disagreement in guidance, uncertainty remains rather high for this time frame. The latest forecast takes a blend of the models and keeps a slight chance of showers in the forecast for early next week with warm temperatures continuing. This will continue to be monitored as the week progresses.
