Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Palm Beach, FL

LONG TERM
(Tuesday night through next Sunday)
Issued at 301 PM EDT Mon Jun 16 2025

GFS/EURO long range guidance show sfc ridging dominating the west Atlantic, with its ridge axis extending into the central portions of the Florida peninsula through much of the work week, Meanwhile, high pressure seems to also remain in place aloft. Latest SAL prognosis suggests the possibility of having enough weakening of the Atlantic ridge, which may allow for some additional dust to make it all the way into the area by the end of the work week. If this scenario materializes, then adjustments to POPs/Wx coverage will be made as necessary. Latest model soundings continue to show a very modest increase in atmospheric moisture for the second part of the work week, with a typical summer weather pattern of sea breeze circulations becoming the main mechanism for deep convection/thunderstorms each afternoon. In addition, early morning coastal showers will also continue, embedded in the synoptic ESE flow each day.

For the upcoming weekend, model agreement remains poor regarding a possible upper level disturbance approaching the area from the Bahamas. Therefore, will wait for persistence and better consensus in the models before incorporating significant changes to the POPs/Wx grids for the weekend weather.

Above normal temps are expected to continue across SoFlo, with afternoon highs in the low-mid 90s inland, and upper 80s to low 90s near the coasts. Overnight lows will likely remain in the low 70s inland, and in the upper 70s to around 80 across near the coasts.
