AMZ500 Synopsis For Flagler Beach To Jupiter Inlet Out To 60 Nm- 341 Am Est Sat Jan 18 2020
Synopsis..Hazardous boating conditions will continue through tonight as a high pressure ridge over the western atlantic continues to produce a fresh onshore breeze. As the ridge moves toward the central atlantic ocean through Sunday, winds and seas will subside slightly, however conditions will remain poor for small craft operation. A much stronger cold front will push across central florida and the adjacent atlantic Sunday night, causing conditions to become hazardous once again through early next week.
Gulf stream hazards..East winds around 20 knots with gusts up to 30 knots, becoming southeast and diminishing slightly by late afternoon. Seas 8 to 10 feet. The approximate location of the west wall of the gulf stream based on the real time ocean forecast system as of Thursday, january 16th. 44 nautical miles east of ponce inlet. 32 nautical miles east of port canaveral. 24 nautical miles east of sebastian inlet. 15 nautical miles east of fort pierce inlet. 10 nautical miles east of saint lucie inlet.

DISCUSSION.
. Still Windy Over the Treasure Coast-Lake Okeechobee Regions Today .
. Strong Cold Front To Move Across Central Florida Sunday Night .
Current . Mix of open and closed cell marine SCU continues to advect onshore the ECFL coast this morning, but is getting eaten up by dry continental air as it tries to move inland across I-95. Breezy, mild conditions continue along the coast, as METARs/CCAFS wind tower data show sustained winds 15-20 MPH (strongest on the barrier islands), and still gusting well into the 20s. This is also holding coastal temps up, as 2AM readings range from the L60s west of I-95 to the U60s-L70s closer to the FL east coast.
Today-tonight . Broad/flat H50 ridge centered over the SE CONUS and FL will collapse as a long wave trough deepens over the eastern CONUS. Development of fast zonal flow aloft will push the large high currently producing our strong/gusty east winds rapidly east across the western Atlantic. as this occurs, a strong cold front will push through the deep south, reaching the FL panhandle by sunrise Sun. Surface-H85 winds will veer to SE and subside this afternoon, then weaken further and veer to light southerly as the front starts to approach from the NW.
Coastal areas will start off breezy-windy, especially from Cape Canaveral southward, and latest MOS guidance supports issuance of Lake Wind Advisory along the coast from Brevard southward, plus Okeechobee County through mid-late afternoon. Skies will start off mostly Mclear inland and Mcloudy along the coast, but then average out partly sunny areawide as low level winds veer SE. Temps remain mild, with highs reaching the U70s for all but the immediate coast, where readings will be closer to 75F. Winds going light to calm overnight coupled with relatively dry air will allow mins to fall to within a couple degrees either side of 60F.
Sun-Sun Night . Energy aloft in the mid-levels embedded in the SW/W flow will slowly progress eastward across the FL peninsula during this time. At the surface, weak high pressure ridging will slide eastward with the approach of a fairly strong cold front. This feature will slip into the I-4 corridor by late afternoon/early evening, then southward across the remainder of ECFL during the evening and overnight. Have increased inherited PoPs a bit to match surrounding offices, but it does appear precip is on a weakening trend as it moves toward/through the area. Currently have 40-50pct PoPs along/north of I-4 and stagger 20-30pct PoPs southward through north Okeechobee/Indian River counties. The trend for precip will be from north to south through the day with much of the area (especially southward) remaining dry for a good portion of the day. Sun night we keep 20-30pct PoPs with coverage/intensity trending downward thru the period. Still opting to keep thunder mention absent from the forecast at this time as instability will be poor.
Light SWRLY winds expected ahead of the front during the day. A weak sea breeze may develop during the day along the Space/Treasure coasts. Winds will become NWRLY Sun night with frontal passage and speeds increasing to 10-15 mph. Fairly warm ahead of the front with temps around 73-75F for highs north of I-4 and U70s to around 80F southward where clouds/precip will be less for much of the day.
Mon-Fri . An active pattern and a good deal of troughiness aloft across the central and eastern CONUS during this time. At the surface and closer towards home, we begin the period post-frontal with high pressure building into the region Mon-Tue. Initial NW flow gradually becomes more N-NE into Wed with what appears to be a coastal troughing pattern setting up and winds veering at the coast to easterly as this veering wind field spreads to inland areas Thu- Fri. Overall drier/cooler air does spread down the peninsula early in the week, then a gradual moistening trend into late work-week. A small threat for showers will exist along the coast early in the week, especially Treasure Coast, then PoPs begin to increase with greater chances spreading inland Wed-Fri.
As stated above, much cooler conditions early in the week. Expect below climo temps thru mid-week as the I-4 corridor only realizes highs in the M-U50s to around 60F. 60s will be realized further south. Lows in the 30s to L40s across much of the area for the Mon and Tue overnight periods. The Space/Treasure coasts will fair better wind a slight onshore component, especially Tue overnight as temps keep in the M-U40s here, except around 50F to L50s immediate coast/barrier islands. A slight/gradual warming trend continues Thu- Fri for both highs and lows areawide.
AVIATION. VFR. BKN040-050 for the DAB-SUA corridor through about 15Z. Winds near the coast from MLB-SUA, which haven't fallen off all that much since 00Z, will be 16-18KT/G23-26KT through 19-20Z.
MARINE. Today-tonight . Strong/gusty east winds will begin to gradually ease this afternoon as they veer to SE and then slacken further tonight as they become SE-S. As expected, wave model guidance has started off a bit lower and is a little faster in the timing of swell decay. Based on latest buoy obs, it appears that seas may wind up peaking a little lower (10ft) than previously indicated, but not enough to warrant any adjustments to the ongoing SCA/HSA.
Sun-Wed . High pressure ridging nudged south/east on Sun with the approach of a strong cold front that will pass across the local waters Sun evening and overnight. High pressure builds in Mon-Tue, but coastal troughing develops late Tue into Wed. Increasing shower chances late Sun/Sun night with front. Thunder mention remains absent. ISOLD shower chances Mon-Mon night, then shower chances increasing to SCT Tue-Wed. NWRLY surge Sun night behind the front with continue elevated winds veering N/NNE Mon night/Tue, then NERLY Tue overnight into Wed, and finally ERLY Wed overnight. Small craft boating conditions deteriorate Sun night and will remain poor to hazardous for much of this period. As stated, wind speeds do remain elevated and seas build Sun overnight, also remaining poor to hazardous for the duration of the period in this unsettled weather pattern.
FIRE WEATHER. Monday . Much cooler and drier air behind the previous cold front. Min RH readings across the western interior will fall to 30-35pct in the afternoon. NW/N 20 ft winds around 10 mph areawide.
