Area Forecast Discussion . UPDATED National Weather Service Miami FL 613 PM EST Fri Nov 27 2020

Aviation. The winds will be light and variable over the TAF sites tonight along with dry and VFR conditions. There could be some patchy fog over the northwest interior areas of South Florida tonight, but the fog should stay away from all of the South Florida TAF sites.

Prev Discussion. /issued 318 PM EST Fri Nov 27 2020/

Short Term . Today through Saturday Evening .

A broad ridge of high pressure will continue to dominate the weather pattern across South Florida for the rest of today and into tonight. Latest short range hi res models continue to show just enough lower level moisture in the area to support the slight chance of showers mainly across the Atlantic waters and the eastern portion of South Florida this afternoon and into this evening. Soundings from this morning show a very dry layer aloft, which will remain in place for the rest of today. This will help to limit the coverage of shower activity as well as intensity, so most of the showers will be brief. High temperatures today will generally rise into the lower 80s across South Florida.

High pressure remains in control as well for Saturday and the light east to southeasterly wind flow will continue as well. Many areas across the region will remain dry for Saturday. A brief passing shower cannot be ruled out at some point during the day mainly across the Atlantic waters as well as the east coast, however, chances remain very minimal. High temperatures will once again rise into the lower 80s across most of the area Saturday afternoon.

Long Term . Saturday Night through Thursday Night .

Some weak 500mb ridging is forecast over the southeast US, ahead of a 500mb short wave, which Should be over the Mississippi River valley by Monday 00z. This should keep the weather quiet over South Florida through at least Sunday night. A stronger 500mb trough digs and deepens over the northern plains at this time, and by Monday morning, should be over the Great Lakes region. This stronger trough should absorb the short wave and cause a surface low to form ahead of it. There is a baroclinic zone over north Florida, that should get pushed northward as a warm front, and a surface low should develop on this line, Sunday into Monday, moving to the northeast. Both the GFS and the ECMWF show this and a similar track for Monday, which is up the spine of the Appalachian Mountains. They both bring a cold front through South Florida late Monday night, with showers and thunderstorms possible ahead of this front. However, this is not a typical path in these situations. The surface lows tend to either remain to the west of the mountains, or have lee side development, and move just off the east coast. So, would not be surprised at all to see the models shift eastward, especially with such a pronounced 500mb trough. This may allow for an earlier passage of the cold front over the area. While am not changing the forecast at this time, will have to watch for this scenario out of caution. Depending on timing, this could result in somewhat better dynamics and somewhat stronger thunderstorms for late Monday afternoon and evening.

Behind the front, a cooler and drier air mass moves in. Lows Tuesday morning look to be in the 50s, with upper 50s for the Atlantic metro areas. Tuesday high temperatures are forecast only in the low to mid 50s around the Lake region up to 70 in the far southeast portion of the CWA. Wednesday morning looks to be the coldest, which is typical. Lows in the low 40s west of the Lake to around 50 in the Atlantic metro areas. Apparent temperatures should remain above wind chill criteria , even west of the Lake, but may be close to meeting it.

Beyond this high pressure keep the weather quiet through the remainder of the forecast period and a warming trend sets up.

Marine . A ridge of high pressure will continue to dominate the weather pattern over the Atlantic and Gulf waters through the upcoming weekend. With a light to moderate east to southeasterly flow remaining in place, generally benign boating conditions will continue across the local waters through the weekend. On Monday, a cold front will move through the local waters which will increase the chances of showers and thunderstorms out ahead of it. Behind the front, winds will increase out of the north northwest, which could create hazardous marine conditions over the Atlantic and Gulf waters through the middle of the week.

Aviation . VFR conditions will prevail throughout the forecast period. East southeasterly winds will remain around 10 knots this afternoon before beginning to diminish this evening. At KAPF, winds this afternoon will shift around to the west southwest as a Gulf Coast sea breeze moves through. A brief shower or two is possible across the east coast terminals through this evening.

Beach Forecast . A moderate risk of rip currents remains in place across the Atlantic Coast Beaches through this evening, Winds will then subside and remain rather light on Saturday. This will allow for the rip current risk to remain on the lower end for the rest of the weekend.
