SHORT TERM
(Today through Sunday)
Issued at 115 AM EDT Sat Jul 27 2024
A seasonably dry airmass (PWATs generally 1.5-1.7 inches) remains in place over South Florida, with a shortwave ridge axis in place over the NE GOM and a decaying mid-lvl low progressing westward into the eastern Bahamas. At the lower-lvls, light SErly flow will prevail today, with decent inland progression of both sea breezes expected this afternoon. Tropospheric moisture will increase marginally (PWATs up to 1.8-1.9 inches) as the decaying mid-lvl vort approaches with scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms expected to develop on both sea breezes this afternoon. Although convection should have a general tendency to propagate towards the interior with time, it remains to be seen if convection initiates over the metros or inland. Regardless, the only threats would be the usual locally heavy rainfall and gusty (but sub-severe) wet microbursts.
The weakening of the synoptic flow will allow for slightly warmer heat indices than the last couple of days, with heat indices generally peaking in the 103-108 degree range this afternoon.
Consequently decided to issue a heat advisory today for Broward/Miami-Dade counties, although verification will likely be dependent upon when and how far inland convection initiates (a further east initiation may keep things slightly cooler than forecast).
Sunday will see a slight change from the pattern of the last few days as a weak frontal system dips into the SE US supporting the northward transport of more seasonable deep-layer moisture (i.e.
PWATs > 2 inches) into the area. Consequently expect greater precipitation coverage than we have observed the last several days, particularly over the Lake region where the low-lvl (sea- breeze driven) convergence should be maximized. Additionally, we will likely flirt with heat advisory criteria over portions of the area again, but this will be dependent upon the timing of convective initiation and convective coverage.
LONG TERM
(Sunday night through Friday)
Issued at 300 AM EDT Sat Jul 27 2024
As we move into the new week, the wave will progress across the US east coast assisting the frontal boundary further through the southeastern US. This will keep the deep layer moisture in our portion of the state, with a considerable increase as we move into Monday. Precipitable water values will rise to 120% of normal, with long term ensembles forecasting PWAT values reaching 2.2 - 2.4" on Monday and Tuesday. With this moisture and veering steering flow, convective activity will remain widespread, rather than the usual easterly flow, with an especially high rainfall totals forecast for Monday and Tuesday. Convective initiation is likely across the interior of the state, but outflow generated convection will likely drift towards the coasts. Model guidance continues to forecast widespread activity, with higher PoPs (60-70%) & QPF values, present early in the new week. The WPC has a majority of South FL at a marginal risk for excessive rainfall on Monday and Tuesday.
While a Saharan dust layer continues to remain visible on satellite imagery across the west-central Atlantic, forecasts keep the core of this plume passing to our south early next week with little to no impact likely on the atmospheric moisture and convective activity.
As we move into mid-week, a stronger easterly flow returns with a building ridge, thus bringing the region back into the easterly summer regime for the latter half of the week. Thus, we will return to early coastal showers along the east coast, followed by interior/Gulf breeze driven SW FL late afternoon showers.
With plenty of low-level moisture, combined with near normal low to mid 90 degree temperatures, heat indices and other heat metrics will remain in an elevated state into next week. This will keep South Florida flirting with potential for heat advisory conditions. Daily product issuance will be dependent on the timing of daily convection and coverage.
AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 115 AM EDT Sat Jul 27 2024
Generally VFR conditions will prevail through the morning, although a brief restriction due to isolated showers will be possible at the east coast terminals. Scattered thunderstorms will develop this afternoon, although confidence is not high in whether they will impact the terminals or remain inland. Light and variable winds overnight will trend E-SE at the east coast terminals, and W-SW at KAPF by this afternoon.
MARINE
Issued at 115 AM EDT Sat Jul 27 2024
Gentle southeasterly winds will prevail over the Atlantic waters through the upcoming weekend, while winds over the Gulf waters will likely shift to the SW during the afternoons in response to the Gulf breeze circulation. Seas will generally decrease to 2 feet or less through the weekend, outside of any thunderstorms which could produce locally higher seas.
