DISCUSSION.
Today-Tonight . There will be an increased threat for strong to marginally severe thunderstorms this afternoon and evening, especially from the Cape to Leesburg northward, with the primary storm threats being gusty winds up to 50 mph (isolated 60 mph possible), frequent cloud to ground lightning, and torrential downpours of 1-3" in an hour. PWATs increasing to 2.0" or higher (at or above the 90th percentile for the day) and CAPE values around 2000 J/kg (a little higher than previous days) will help support scattered to possibly numerous showers and thunderstorms, water loading of storms increasing the potential for strong downdrafts to form, and heavy rainfall. However, upward storm development will be limited by fairly warm mid level temperatures around -6C, which will also result in unimpressive lapse rates. In addition, despite the slightly stronger low level westerly flow expected today, low level and deep layer shear remains less than 10 kts, so organized storms with strong updrafts are not expected.
PWATS decreasing southward (down to around 1.8") will result in a gradient of PoPs down east central Florida this afternoon, from 70 pct from Orlando northward to 50 pct in Stuart. Decent west- southwesterly flow will keep our sea breeze pinned very close to the coast, struggling to reach I-95, while showers and storms develop along and ahead of the west coast sea breeze as it moves eastward across the peninsula. Expecting a sea breeze collision in the late afternoon to early evening along or just west of I-95. Initial convective development should push quickly quickly offshore, but additional rounds of development will be possible on outflow boundaries, which may have more erratic motion. The majority or showers and storms should dissipate shortly after sunset, but a few stragglers lingering around or developing on outflow boundaries could persist to around midnight. A quite warm afternoon, especially from Melbourne south where rain chances are lower, with highs in the mid 90s, followed by a quiet but muggy night with lows in the mid to upper 70s.
Thu-Tue . Through Friday, our area will remain between the frontal trough just to our north and the Atlc subtropical ridge axis to our south. This will produce predominant SW flow that will delay the sea breeze and produce hot temps again, even at the coast. Another round of scattered to numerous coverage of showers/storms will occur Thu aftn into the eve. This combination of westerly steering flow and the east coast sea breeze should bring some needed rounds of rain to east coastal sections. This flow regime will not last long so not everyone will benefit but some will.
Aloft, the Atlc subtropical ridge will strengthen and build west toward FL this weekend, allowing the low level ridge axis to lift north across central FL. This will produce a change in our wind (and therefore precip) regime, returning us to an onshore flow. This keeps low temps very warm along the coast with isolated overnight/morning Atlc and coastal showers. This will shift the focus for aftn storms to the interior and FL west coast into early next week. Rain chances for the coast may need to be lowered for this weekend.
AVIATION. VFR conditions prevail through the morning, then high coverage of VCSH/VCTS expected at the northern terminals this afternoon and evening as increasing atmospheric moisture moves in from the north. TEMPOs for MVFR CIGs and MVFR/IFR VIS for DAB/ISM/LEE/MCO/SFB/TIX to be included with 12Z package. Additional rounds of showers and storms developing on outflow boundaries past 00Z possible. Slightly less moisture and warm air aloft should limit convective development across the southern terminals, so sticking with VCTS mention at MLB-SUA for now. VFR conditions prevail tonight.
MARINE. Today-Tonight . Generally favorable boating conditions outside of storms. A stalled frontal boundary remains north of the waters, keeping the Atlantic ridge axis suppressed to the south. Winds W-SW 5-10 kts, becoming SE-S in the afternoon with the sea breeze, then returning to W-SW tonight. Scattered to possibly numerous showers and storms moving offshore north of the Cape through the afternoon and evening, and isolated to scattered to the south. Some storms may become strong, producing wind gusts over 34 kts, frequent cloud to ground lightning, and locally higher seas. Seas 2-3 ft outside of storms.
Thu-Sun . SW flow will persist over the local Atlc waters though late week as another frontal boundary pushes into the deep South and the Atlc ridge axis remains suppressed south of the area. SW winds should decrease a bit Thu-Fri 5-10 knots which will allow a SE sea breeze near the coast in the aftn. On Fri, the ridge axis will begin to lift northward so expect an even lighter offshore flow. Then a dominant onshore flow will develop this weekend as the ridge axis lifts north of the waters. Boating conditions will be generally favorable. The primary threat will be offshore moving storms in the late afternoon and evening Thu containing gusty winds. Seas 1-2 FT Thu then 2 FT nearshore and up to 3 FT offshore Fri thru the weekend.
