AMZ500 Synopsis For Flagler Beach To Jupiter Inlet Out To 60 Nm- 357 Pm Est Mon Dec 11 2023
Synopsis..A fresh north to northwest breeze will continue across the waters into tonight behind the strong cold front that passed through our atlantic waters yesterday evening. Poor to hazardous boating conditions will continue across the coastal waters through early this week as high pressure northwest of florida builds toward the mid- atlantic region. Tightening pressure gradient between frontal boundary south of florida and high pressure to the north will lead to a strengthening onshore flow into mid to late week. This will lead to hazardous to potentially dangerous boating conditions across the entire waters.
Gulf stream hazards..North to northwest winds 20 to 25 knots, decreasing to around 20 knots late this afternoon before veering north to northeast overnight. Seas building up to 7 feet.

DISCUSSION
Current-Tuesday... High pressure will build across the southeastern US through the time period, allowing for dry conditions to continue.
Northerly winds around 10 mph (with higher gusts along the coast possible) this afternoon will decrease to generally below 10 mph overnight, especially across the interior. Breezy conditions will develop Monday afternoon as winds veer northeast and increase to 10- 15 mph with gusts up to 20 mph possible.
Mostly clear skies this afternoon will become partly cloudy overnight and cloudy by Tuesday afternoon. Temperatures this afternoon will be below normal for this time of year, with highs in the low 60s to low 70s. Another cooler night in store for east central FL tonight, with overnight lows dropping into the mid 40s to upper 50s, except low 40s across the traditionally cooler locations across Lake and northern Volusia counties. After a cool start to the morning, temperatures will rise into the upper 60s to low 70s for Tuesday's afternoon high temperatures.
Tuesday Night-Friday (Modified Previous)...High pressure will build toward the Mid-Atlantic region, with flow veering onshore and strengthening through mid to late week as pressure gradient tightens between strong high to the north and stalled front south of FL. This will lead to breezy to windy conditions through much of the week, with onshore flow also gradually increasing moisture across the area. It will remain dry into Tuesday, but rain chances will begin to rise through the rest of the week, as coverage of onshore moving showers increases across the area. Conditions should remain dry across most of the interior on Wednesday, with PoPs up to 30-50 percent along the Treasure Coast and Okeechobee County, and 20 percent through the rest of the coastal counties. Chance PoPs (around 30-50 percent) then expand northward across the area through the remainder of the week. Greatest rain chances through the period will remain focused along the Treasure Coast. There will be the potential for some localized heavy rainfall across southern portions of the Treasure Coast from Wed-Thu. There remains a Marginal Risk of Excessive Rainfall across Martin and southeast St. Lucie counties both days, but models are coming into better agreement for the highest rainfall amounts to be focused to the south.
Skies will be partly cloudy to start on Tuesday, but mostly cloudy conditions will then prevail through much of the week. Onshore flow will lead to an increase in max temps to the 70s on Tuesday, and then cloud cover will generally keep highs in the 70s for the rest of the week. Warming trend will also impact overnight lows, with values back in the 60s across much of the area.
Stronger onshore flow into mid to late week will build seas across the Atlantic waters, leading to hazardous surf conditions, including higher risk of rip currents and large breaking waves at the beaches.
Minor coastal flooding and beach erosion concerns will also increase through mid to late week, especially around the morning high tides.
Saturday-Sunday (Modified Previous)...Forecast remains uncertain into the weekend, as model guidance continues to diverge in their solutions of developing low pressure over the southern Gulf of Mexico (along stalled frontal boundary). GFS continues to be faster then the ECM with formation of the low 12-24 hours sooner, lifting the low to the northeast and across north FL into Saturday night and Sunday. The ECM on the other hand keeps the low further south before turning north and tracking across south Florida. Both solutions do indicate a period of unsettled weather and much wetter conditions into the weekend. For now, chance PoPs up to 30-50 percent continue for the weekend. Highs remain in the 70s with overnight lows generally in the 60s.
MARINE
Issued at 405 PM EST Mon Dec 11 2023
Current-Tuesday... Poor to hazardous marine conditions continue.
High pressure will build across the southeast US, brining dry conditions across the local waters into tonight. North to northwest winds 20-25 knots this afternoon will veer to the north to northeast overnight and slacken slightly to 15-20 knots, with northeast winds persisting through Tuesday. Seas 4-5ft in the nearshore waters, and 6- 7ft in the Gulf Stream. A Small Craft Advisory remains in effect for all the offshore waters and the nearshore waters of the Treasure Coast tonight, with the offshore Volusia waters dropping off after 3 AM Tuesday.
Tuesday Night-Friday...Poor to hazardous boating conditions will continue into Tuesday with winds veering onshore as high pressure builds toward the Mid-Atlantic states. NE winds will range from 15- 20 knots, with seas remaining up to 6-7 feet over the gulf stream and 4-5 feet nearshore. A Small Craft Advisory will remain in effect for the offshore waters of Brevard County and across the Treasure Coast waters on Tuesday.
Boating conditions will then deteriorate further through mid to late week as onshore flow strengthens between strong high pressure to the north of the area, and stalled front south of FL. Gale conditions will be possible as early as Wednesday evening and continuing through the rest of the week as easterly winds are forecast to increase up to 25-30 knots, with gusts up to 40 knots. This stronger onshore flow combined with a long easterly fetch will lead to significant increases in seas, with wave heights building from 5-7 feet Tuesday up to 10-15 feet into Thursday-Friday.

VFR conditions through the TAF period. High pressure will build across the southeast US will keep conditions dry through the period.
Breezy northerly flow this afternoon will slacken overnight, especially across inland terminals with some breezy conditions lingering along the coast. Winds will then veer to the northeast by mid morning and increase to 10-15 KT by the afternoon with gusts up to 20 KT, especially along the coast.
