10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. 6/2/2019. Many thanks to a user for reporting an error on one of the Edit pages. The switch to PHP 7.2 caused many pages that previously worked to quit working. I fixed many but I still depend on users to report ones I missed. Please report errors HERE or send an email to me at L-36.com. Allen |

Synopsis..High pressure ridge will remain north of the south florida waters through the week with east to southeast winds that could become breezy at times particularly across the atlantic waters. Marine conditions are forecast to deteriorate late in the week as strong ridge of high pressure off the east coast generates swells that are forecast to start impacting the atlantic waters by Friday.
Gulf stream hazards..SEas are forecast to build above 7 feet particularly across the palm beach gulf stream waters by late this week. The approximate location of the west wall of the gulf stream as of dec 07, 2019 at 1200 utc... 9 nautical miles east of fowey rocks. 17 nautical miles east of port everglades. 15 nautical miles east northeast of lake worth. 17 nautical miles east southeast of jupiter inlet.

DISCUSSION.
Tonight-Monday . High pressure centered offshore of the northeast U.S. coast will continue eastward with ridge gradually extending all the way across Florida into tomorrow. This will veer low level winds to the S/SE across the region, which will lead to drier conditions and continue a warming trend into tomorrow. Any lingering isolated showers across the area should end near to just after sunset, and then into tonight, may continue to see a few showers develop over the coastal waters, mainly offshore. Otherwise rain chances remain out of the forecast across the area through tomorrow. Lows forecast to reach the upper 50s to near 60 degrees into tonight, then expect a warm afternoon with highs reaching the low 80s under mostly sunny skies.
Tuesday . Moisture continues a slight increases across the area resulting in a slight chance of showers primarily south and east of Interstate 4. Forecast highs in the low to mid 80s, which is hot for December. Overnight lows become mild Tuesday night with most seeing mid 60s except some upper 60s toward the beaches.
Wednesday-Thursday Night . (amended previous) Increasing rain chances from mid to late week as another cold front moves into the area Wednesday into Thursday. Models have come into slightly better agreement that this front stalls somewhere over the north-central Florida peninsula. Regardless, the highest rain chances are expected toward the coast as both the GFS and ECMWF are developing a coastal trough in the Wednesday night through Thursday night timeframe along with some impulses aloft. The ECMWF in particular is advertising the potential of some locally heavy rainfall but details are still very uncertain. Wednesday still looks warms with highs in the low to mid 80s, and for Thursday mid 70s north, and upper 70s to near 80 degrees south. Overnight lows in the 60s, running much above normal.
Friday-Saturday . (amended previous) Significant model differences regarding evolution of surface low and a cold front tracking near Florida late this week. GFS solution is more robust showing a strong front with thunderstorms crossing the area, while the ECMWF is drier as the low develops east of the area. For now, keeping chance of showers and perhaps a storm or two in the forecast Friday into the weekend. Temperatures expected to be slightly above to near normal.
AVIATION. VFR conditions expected. May see some patchy fog develop late tonight near to northwest of the I-4 corridor. However, increasing boundary layer winds off the surface will likely keep any fog development brief and limited and will therefore keep mention out of the TAFs for now.
MARINE.
Tonight-Monday . Ridge extending southwestward across the area will veer east-southeast winds this evening to the south-southeast late tonight into tomorrow. Wind speeds will range around 5-10 knots, increasing to around 10 knots Monday afternoon, with a lingering northeast swell keeping seas up to 3-5 feet.
Tuesday . Atlantic ridge axis extending across the local waters will give a south to southeast breeze increasing to 10 to 15 knots. Seas will run around 3-4 ft nearshore and 4-5 ft offshore.
Wednesday-Thursday . (modified previous) Another cold front will move into the area and stall out somewhere across central Florida. The main surge of wind is forecast to stay north of the area, though sustained winds of 20 knots are possible in far offshore Volusia waters on Thursday afternoon. Seas are forecast to remain largely unchanged on Wednesday but are expected to build during the day Thursday resulting in hazardous boating conditions.

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
