Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 318 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2024

New LONG TERM

SHORT TERM
(Rest of today through Wednesday)
Issued at 1218 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2024

Tranquil conditions continue over the area today, as mid-lvl ridging oriented over the central GOM builds towards the area and high pressure over the western Atlantic continues to support moderate easterly low-lvl flow. Given the dynamic subsidence, rain chances will remain near zero with clouds generally being limited to scattered shallow cumulus. High temperatures will range from near normal over the east coast to slightly above normal over the Interior and Sofl. The more established easterly flow will result in overnight lows increasing back to near climo over the east coast tonight (upper 60s to lower 70s).

The aforementioned synoptic pattern remains in place on Wednesday with ridging remaining in control and continued dry conditions.
Slightly higher mid-lvl heights and slightly weaker easterly flow will result in temperatures ticking up a degree or two relative to today, generally ranging from the low to mid 80s on the east coast, to the mid to upper 80s over Interior and SW Florida.

LONG TERM
(Wednesday night through next Monday)
Issued at 315 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2024

Upper level ridging will prevail across the Gulf of Mexico and the Florida peninsula through much of the extended period, allowing for generally dry and warm conditions to continue.
Near the surface, high pressure will remain over the western Atlantic through the end of the work week, allowing for continued easterly flow across the area.

Temperatures will gradually warm through the period, with highs reaching the lower 90s across much of the interior near the end of the work week, and approaching the mid 90s during the weekend.
Conditions along the East Coast may remain slightly cooler thanks to onshore flow, with highs in the mid to upper 80s through much of the period.

AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1218 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2024

VFR conditions will continue through the TAF period. Easterly winds will prevail sustained at 10-15kts with gusts 20-25kts during the day, and then decreasing to near 10kts overnight. The one exception will be KAPF where a shift to the W-SW can be expected mid-afternoon.

MARINE
Issued at 1218 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2024

A moderate to fresh easterly wind flow will continue across the local waters through the middle of the week as high pressure remains in place over the Western Atlantic. These winds will slowly subside and become southeasterly heading towards the end of the week as the surface high weakens and shifts eastward. Seas across the Atlantic waters will range from 2 to 4 feet through the middle of the week while seas across the Gulf waters remain at 2 feet or less.

BEACHES
Issued at 1218 PM EDT Tue Apr 16 2024

Moderate onshore (easterly) flow will remain in place through Wednesday, maintaining a high risk of rip currents for the east coast beaches. The risk will begin to decrease Thursday into the late-week period as winds decrease.
