New UPDATE, AVIATION

UPDATE
Issued at 831 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

Another quiet and clear night on tap with ridging overhead and lows expected in the low to mid 60's.

DISCUSSION
Issued at 224 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

High pressure remains in control and will stay in control of our weather pattern for at least the next week. This means warming temperatures and dry conditions. As the surface high pressure settles off to our east, it will lead to light easterly or southeasterly winds across the peninsula. This easterly flow will minimize the sea breeze influence and advect the warmest temperatures across our area, keeping temperatures across the CWA in the upper 80s and lower 90s. The drier airmass across the region will not only restrict rainfall chances but also lead to lower humidity. So while temperatures will be above normal for this time of year, at least it will be a dry heat.

AVIATION
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 831 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

VFR conditions expected through the period with winds generally staying below 10 knots.

MARINE
Issued at 224 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 224 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

High pressure will remain in control over the next week. Critically low RH values are expected each afternoon, but winds will remain light negating a need for any Red Flag Warning.
