Marine Weather and Tides
Version 3.4 |
12/16/2019 NOAA is having trouble with requests that include wind gusts. I am posting graphs without wind gusts until it gets fixed. 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. |

AMZ500 Synopsis For Flagler Beach To Jupiter Inlet Out To 60 Nm- 320 Pm Edt Sun May 31 2020
Synopsis..The atlantic ridge axis will remain across central florida through this evening, providing generally favorable boating conditions. A weak frontal boundary will cross the waters late tonight into early Monday, forcing the ridge axis southward. Behind the front, high pressure will build from the mid-atlantic states toward florida, providing a period of freshening onshore flow and poor to hazardous winds and seas into Tuesday. Winds will slacken slightly through mid week as they veer to southeasterly.
Gulf stream hazards..None. The approximate location of the west wall of the gulf stream based on the real time ocean forecast system as of Sunday, may 31st. 41 nautical miles east of ponce inlet. 30 nautical miles east of port canaveral. 25 nautical miles east of sebastian inlet. 17 nautical miles east of fort pierce inlet. 10 nautical miles east of saint lucie inlet.

DISCUSSION.
Current-tonight . Showers are beginning to develop and move into far northern portions of east central Florida as of around 2pm. These storms will continue to increase in coverage through the afternoon, becoming scattered. Initial storm motion will be SE, thanks to light NW flow between a strengthening high pressure over the GOMEX and a weak trough draped across the southeast moving into the western Atlantic. However, like the last few days, storm motions will become more erratic through the afternoon, as outflow boundary collisions overcome light steering flow. Main threats continue to be dangerous lightning, gusty winds, and flooding of poor drainage areas due to heavy rainfall. Any lingering storms will dissipate into early evening. Expect seasonal overnight lows in the low 70s.
Monday . A weak surface front will move southward into the area Monday morning, before washing out. PoPs diminishing slightly compared to the previous few days, with afternoon shower and thunderstorm chances around 30 percent in northern counties to 50 percent along the Treasure Coast. Onshore flow developing, with ENE winds 10-15 mph Monday afternoon. This will help to reduce afternoon temperatures, especially along the coast. Afternoon highs upper 80s to near 90 inland and the mid 80s across coastal areas.
Tuesday-Wednesday(modified previous) . Ridge axis associated with a low/mid level anticyclone will drop to N FL by midweek. As influence of low/mid level anticyclone to the north becomes the dominant factor, a pattern change will ensue as steering flow becomes NE early to mid week. Dryer and more stable air will advect onshore into the northern third/half of CWA. Initial shower/storm development will be late morning/early afternoon near the coast, then generally spreading toward interior later each day. Trend toward lower POPs Tue/Wed as relatively drier onshore flow prevails. POPs ranging from generally 20 N to 40 S Tue/Wed. Within onshore flow, max temps will reduce to lower/mid 80s coast and mid to upper 80s inland Tue/Wed.
Thursday-Saturday (modified) . Considerable disparity remains for extended range regarding evolution/placement of Central American Gyre. A piece of vorticity is forecast to eject out of the gyre Thu and lift north into the Gulf. As this occurs, GFS/ECM return slug of deep tropical moisture to southern/central FL peninsula as steering flow veers S/SW. This pattern suggests increasing convective coverage late week . possibly into the weekend. Given extended time range and uncertainty of pattern evolution over the Gulf, will reduce high blended model POPs slightly to likely range for Thu-Fri. Expect an uptick in shower/storm coverage with daily POPs near 60-70 percent areawide. Depending on evolution of potential development in the western Gulf of Mexico late in the week, ECFL should see decreasing POPs by Sunday as the area will likely be between the progged low and a mid level wave moving off the mid Atlc coast. Max temps remaining mid-upper 80s Thu-Fri, and warming for the interior to around 90/lower 90s late in the weekend with less cloud cover expected by Sunday.
AVIATION. General VFR conditions outside of convection over the next 24 hours. Scattered showers and lightning storms are expected to develop this afternoon initially north of KISM-KTIX line, then may affect KMLB-KVRB into the late afternoon/evening. Activity will diminish by late evening. MVFR conditions in and around storms with brief IFR conditions possible with +RA. Main threats will include frequent cloud to ground lightning, torrential downpours, and wind gusts in excess of 35 kts with some of the strongest storms.
MARINE.
This afternoon-tonight . Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms may make their way to the ICW and nearshore waters later this afternoon. Any storms that make it to these areas will dissipate through the evening. However, a slight shower chance will linger into the overnight, mainly across the offshore waters. E/SE winds this afternoon will become S overnight around 5 kts. Seas 2-3 ft.
Monday . Winds becoming ENE, as a weak surface trough moves into the area and washes out. Wind speeds increasing to around 15 kts nearshore and 15-20 kts offshore Monday afternoon into the evening. Seas rapidly deteriorating, becoming 5-7 ft offshore north of the Cape in the afternoon and 3-5 ft elsewhere. Seas across all east central Florida nearshore and offshore zones are expected to become 5-7 ft by Monday night.
Tuesday-Wednesday(modified previous) . E winds near 15 kt Tue lower toward 5-10 kt overnight, becoming SE 10 kt Wed as ridge axis drops south to the northern peninsula. Seas will gradually begin to subside Tue, reaching 3-4 ft by Wed afternoon. Isolated showers/storms north of the Cape and scattered showers/isolated storms farther south.
Thursday-Friday . As ridge axis broadens and drops into central FL, gradient flow will increase from the SE to near 15 knots at times. Seas will increase offshore to around 4 ft. Scattered to locally numerous showers/storms.
