Synopsis..Moderate offshore winds are expected to continue decrease slightly and transition to be easterly by this afternoon. Moderate southeasterly flow expected on Friday, before shifting southerly and increasing to moderate to strong overnight ahead of another cold front. Moderate northerly flow is then anticipated in the wake of the second cold front early Sunday.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 915 AM EDT Thu Apr 22 2021
UPDATE. Radar this morning reveals a few showers exiting the offshore Atlantic waters near the frontal boundary that pushed through South Florida yesterday. Given there still remains ample boundary layer moisture, increasing insolation through the day could work together with another frontal boundary -- currently analyzed across Lake Okeechobee-- to result in isolated convection this afternoon, especially for the southern portions of the area. While updraft strength should be limited with other factors for severe convection being less favorable, can't rule out locally gusty winds with any stronger storms that develop. All in all, the forecast looks to be in good shape with no major adjustments needed at this time.
PREV DISCUSSION. (Issued 738 AM EDT Thu Apr 22 2021)
AVIATION(12Z TAFS) .
Primarily VFR conditions will prevail today with SHRA and perhaps an isolated TSRA possible this afternoon, though coverage should be sparse enough to maintain vicinity mention at this time. Otherwise, main story is NNW flow becoming NE by the afternoon, with the exception of a Gulf breeze/westerly wind shift at KAPF.
PREV DISCUSSION . (Issued 333 AM EDT Thu Apr 22 2021)
SHORT TERM (Today through Friday) . An expansive continental surface high centered over the east-central CONUS will continue to translate eastward behind a departing eastern CONUS trough and accompanying upper-level jet streak, resulting in mid-level drying across South Florida. At the surface, the tail end of a weak frontal boundary will continue drifting into the western Atlantic waters, and a moist boundary layer combined with diurnal heating/destabilization will support the development of isolated showers and perhaps a few thunderstorms today. Poor mid-level lapse rates and associated weak deep-layer instability should keep coverage of showers and storms low today, though mesoscale ascent driven by differential heating should support at least isolated convection -- especially across the far southern portions of South Florida.
As surface winds gradually veer from the NNW to NNE below deep westerly middle and upper tropospheric flow today, the net result will be deep-layer bulk shear values of 30 to 40 knots across the eastern half of South Florida. Although very modest instability and weak forcing for ascent should principally limit updraft intensity this afternoon, locally gusty winds will be possible if any convection can become loosely organized owing to the favorable deep- layer shear in place. Temperatures will be near normal for today, with lower 80s across the eastern half of South Florida and middle/upper 80s across southwest Florida and the Gulf Coast.
For Friday, surface winds will continue veering toward an easterly direction, with rich boundary-layer moisture and modest instability remaining in place across South Florida. These factors will once again support the development of isolated showers and perhaps thunderstorms. Once again, poor mid-level lapse rates and isothermal layers aloft should limit the intensity of updrafts that develop, especially with only modest forcing for ascent. Temperatures will be in the lower 80s across the eastern half of South Florida and upper 80s along the Gulf Coast.
LONG TERM . Friday night through Wednesday night .
A weak Bermuda high should be able to hold on through the first part of the weekend at least. This will bring a south to southeast flow to the area. This flow will advect a warmer air mass into the area, as well as waves of moisture. This will keep at least a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms in the forecast for Saturday.
By Sunday, a low pressure system develops off the mid-Atlantic coast, and has a trailing cold front, which at least moves into north Central Florida by Sunday morning. This system should break down the high to the east, and, along with a 500mb trough, should bring some additional moisture and instability to the area. Currently, it looks as though most of any convective activity will be in the Lake region, and possibly along the east coast metro areas.
After Sunday, models are now showing the front pushes through the area, and high pressure builds over the region for the beginning of the week. This high should be strong enough to hamper convection through the end of the forecast period.
AVIATION(06Z TAFS) . Primarily VFR throughout the period. Isolated SHRA will be possible across the Atlantic waters during the morning hours, though impacts should be limited. Additional SHRA and perhaps an isolated thunderstorm will be possible this afternoon, though limited coverage precludes mention in the TAFs. NNW flow will become NNE by late morning, and a Gulf breeze/westerly wind shift is forecast at KAPF.
MARINE . Generally benign marine conditions outside of isolated showers and thunderstorms across the Atlantic waters, where locally gusty winds will be possible. As a weak frontal boundary departs the area, strengthening easterly winds will result in cautionary conditions across the local waters from Friday morning through the upcoming weekend.
BEACHES . Isolated showers and perhaps a thunderstorm could affect the Atlantic beaches today, with locally gusty winds possible. The rip current risk will increase across the Atlantic beaches late this week and remain elevated through the upcoming weekend as onshore winds strengthen.
