New AVIATION
UPDATE
Issued at 702 PM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
Bumped up PoPs slightly for Saturday across the east coast for some spotty showers off the Atlantic and also along and off the Gulf coast later in the day where some convergence will likely kick off some showers over there. Otherwise, the rest of the near term forecast remains on track.
DISCUSSION
Issued at 318 PM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
An upper-level ridge is situated across the FL Big Bend and NE Gulf region as a sprawling surface high remains situated off the NE Atlantic coast. The 12mb gradient from the center of this feature to S FL is driving a breezy easterly flow across the region. However, the overall atmospheric profile remains on the dry side. Daytime heating has created a shallow well-mixed layer, and there is enough low-level moisture to continue supporting a low-level Cu field.
However, there is no sufficient depth to this layer. Throughout the column, ACARS soundings are only showing a PWAT value of 0.5in currently. Even the 12Z sounding only had a PWAT value of 0.9inches.
This is right on the border of the lowest 10th percentile.
Warm, breezy conditions will continue today and tonight in response.
Winds over the waters are likely to increase overnight as well as the gradient tightens even further. Overall, though, there is very little change in conditions for the next few days. A dry, stable airmass persists with a strong upper-level ridge locked in through early next week.
Throughout this time-frame, the surface high will gradually sink south, eventually settling off the FL coast. The prevailing easterly flow should veer more ESE at that point, and a slight increase in moisture is expected. A few more shallow showers are possible across Atlantic waters, perhaps making it into the east coast. However, the overall synoptic pattern will continue to support a mostly dry and stable airmass through the entirety of the period.
AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 107 AM EDT Sat Apr 27 2024
VFR prevails for the next 24 hours. Steady easterly winds will be in place with gusts up to the 25-30kt range for all sites. There is no threat for rain.
MARINE
Issued at 318 PM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
Winds and seas are expected to continue increasing across Atlantic and Gulf waters this afternoon and evening, with hazardous conditions expected for small craft. This is expected to last through the weekend and potentially into early next week, especially across Atlantic waters. A few isolated showers are also possible across Atlantic waters, especially closer to the Gulf Stream.
BEACHES
Issued at 318 PM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
A gusty easterly flow continues to favor a high risk of rip currents at beaches along the Atlantic Coastline through the weekend.
Remember, if caught in a rip current, relax and float. Don't swim against the current. If able, swim in a direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 318 PM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
Dry weather continues into next week as a breezy easterly flow prevails. While soils are drying out, RH values are expected to remain above critical thresholds. There are no significant rain chances for the next week.
