Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 657 PM EDT Sun Apr 20 2025
New AVIATION
SHORT TERM
(Rest of today through Monday)
Issued at 1202 PM EDT Sun Apr 20 2025
Mesoanalysis, ACARS data from SoFlo airports, as well as the 12z MFL upper air sounding from earlier this morning indicate the continued presence of stout mid-level ridging aloft across our region this afternoon with a strong subsidence remaining in place.
The combination of the subsidence inversion, PWATs of 0.6-0.8 according to RTMA analysis, and a lack of instability will result in another gorgeous day across the region outside of the occasional isolated shower along the east coast. A series of shortwaves propagating along in the subtropical jet-stream currently oriented in a southwest to northeast configuration over the central to northeastern United States will gradually erode the periphery of the ridge and result in slow weakening of this persistent mid-level feature. At the surface, the status quo remains as a pressure gradient continues today resulting in breezy easterly winds and a temperature gradient this afternoon. Highs will be in the low to middle 80s along the eastern half of South Florida, and the upper 80s elsewhere with the hottest temperatures being observed across the western extent of Collier, Glades, and Hendry counties. Overnight lows will once again dip into the widespread lower 60s across the western half of the region, perhaps even a few upper 50s once again across sheltered locations. Along the east coast, the easterly flow will act to keep things warmer with min temperatures in the low 70s more likely near the east coast.
A rinse and repeat pattern on Monday with the caveat that surface winds decrease as the pressure gradient breaks down. This will allow for better diurnal heating to occur across the region with temperatures across inland southwestern Florida potentially reaching the widespread low 90s during the afternoon hours. Rain chances will remain minimal once again outside of the occasional sprinkle.
LONG TERM
(Monday night through Saturday)
Issued at 237 AM EDT Sun Apr 20 2025
The western Atlantic high and mid-level ridging's stronghold of our weather will continue through most of the week with dry and stable conditions. Through the mid-week, there will not be a sufficient moisture levels with the air mass still projected to be too dry for precipitation. Model guidance continues to forecast approximately 50- 70% of normal precipitable water and afternoon dew points in the low 60s in South Florida. Therefore, even with the easterly sea breeze and warm temperatures, conditions are expected to remain dry and stable through Thursday. However, with the latest model guidance, confidence has grown with the potential for the return of precipitation by Friday and into the weekend. The mid-level ridge begins to break down and surface level high pressure in the Atlantic high begins to drift to our northeast. With these changes, the sea breeze will have the potential to bring the return of unsettled weather and afternoon showers. With the strong easterly winds, and an increase in moisture seen in the latest ensembles (PWATS ~1.2"), the potential for rain on Friday and Saturday has risen to widespread 20-35% PoPs, with isolated thunderstorms focused on the Gulf coast. With plenty of time for change and more details to determine as time approaches, we will be grateful for any rain that us much needed across our entire region with the current drought conditions.
Afternoon high temperatures will warm into the mid-to-upper 80s across a majority of the region, with a potential for above normal low 90s across much of the interior southwestern Florida. Overnight temperatures will be cool and comfortable, allowing for lows to drop into the 60s, except low 70s along the east coast.
AVIATION
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 652 PM EDT Sun Apr 20 2025
VFR prevails for the 00Z TAF period. Easterly winds will continue through the night but will not be gusty like during the day. Gusts will return by late morning and early afternoon on Monday. At KAPF, winds will shift out of the southwest Monday afternoon.
MARINE
Issued at 1202 PM EDT Sun Apr 20 2025
Advisory level winds are expected to persist across a large portion of our Gulf and Atlantic waters again today. While these hazardous marine conditions are forecast to subside by tomorrow, Cautionary level winds are expected across the Atlantic waters throughout the week, with slightly calmer conditions over the Gulf waters.
BEACHES
Issued at 1202 PM EDT Sun Apr 20 2025
The persistent, elevated easterly winds will keep a high risk of rip currents in the forecast for Atlantic beaches over the next several days. This will result in continued life threatening swimming conditions, especially for inexperienced ocean swimmers.
Surf will remain rough along the east coast, with breakers around 3- 5 feet today, subsiding to around 2-4 ft for the remainder of the week.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 1202 PM EDT Sun Apr 20 2025
Breezy easterly winds will continue today with lowest relative humidities (upper 30s to lower 40s) across the western half of south Florida. While Red Flag conditions are not expected to be met, caution should be exercised over the coming days. Keep in mind that county-enacted burn bans remain in place across much of western south Florida as well.
