Area Forecast Discussion . UPDATED National Weather Service Melbourne FL 1030 PM EST Sat Feb 27 2021
DISCUSSION.
Currently-Tonight . Skies are mostly clear across most of FL as high pressure continues to build over the western Atlantic. South-southeasterly flow has brought in a warmer and more humid airmass as we remain on the back side of high pressure. Temperatures are in the mid 60s to low 70s with dew-points in the mid-to-upper 60s.
The forecast is mostly on track with little in the way of adjustments needed. A few tweaks to sky coverage and temperatures were made. More clearing has occurred than expected, so I've adjusted sky girds accordingly. Persistence is key with the forecast tonight and into tomorrow. Lows will be a little warmer overnight with higher dew-points than last night keeping temperatures up a little comparatively. Highs tomorrow will be very similar to today with a few locations likely even reaching a degree or two warmer. Dry conditions will continue as the upper- level ridge dominates the region.
PREV DISCUSSION. /issued 316 PM EST Sat Feb 27 2021/
DISCUSSION.
Rest of Today . There was just enough surface moisture for a few light showers to develop along the east-coast sea breeze, just west of I-95, earlier this afternoon. While a few more showers could pop up along I-95, expect mostly dry conditions to prevail into this evening. Temperatures have maxed out in the low 80s along the coast, where temps are now moderated behind the sea breeze. Inland, though, temps will rise into the mid 80s, and could even reach record territory at Leesburg (see climate section below for today's records).
Tonight . Dry conditions expected overnight as temps settle into the mid to upper 60s. Conditions do not appear favorable for sea fog to develop along the Volusia coast. All the high resolution models are initializing incorrectly as most indicate fog should already be ongoing along much of the coast from Cape Hatteras to Daytona Beach. Looking at visible satellite shows there is no fog anywhere in these areas. Still, just like this morning, patchy fog could develop over land in a few spots around sunrise, creating small patches of reduced visibility.
Sunday . Atlantic high pressure remains entrenched over the area, continuing dry and very warm conditions. The ridge axis will shift south from north-central FL to somewhere around (or just south) of the Cape. This maintains south/southeasterly flow, allowing the east- coast sea breeze to develop in the early afternoon. Temperatures reach the low to mid 80s along the coast and upper 80s inland. Leesburg could once again reach their daily record high, though most other inland sites will fall about 1-2 degrees below their daily records.
Sun night-Mon night (previous modified) . A ridge extending from the central Atlantic towards central FL through this period will shift southward on Mon. Winds will shift from the south to a more southwest component on Mon. Near record highs expected once again on Mon, with temperatures in the mid 80s along the coast and upper 80s across the interior. Interior locations will have the best chance to tie or set a new record. Conditions remaining dry through Monday afternoon. Then, the weakening cold front will approach northern Florida late Monday afternoon into Monday evening.
The GFS and ECMWF have come into better agreement on the front making it to northern or central FL on Mon night, with the GFS moving the front further southward into southern Florida before stalling. The ECMWF, meanwhile, is the slower solution and stalls the front near or just south of the Cape into Tuesday morning. Nonetheless, the front will weaken as it enters the area, so a slight chance of showers offshore, with no mentionable PoPs onshore through sunrise on Tuesday. Lows Sun night will reach the mid 60s while on Mon night, temps will range from lower 60s across the northern counties to mid 60s towards the Treasure Coast.
Tue-Fri (previous modified) . Northerly flow that develops behind the front Monday night will veer onshore Tuesday, as the front stalls. A slight chance of showers from Treasure Coast northward through Tuesday afternoon. Now both models (ECMWF and GFS) show the front slightly lifting away from the local area but moving south across the area Wed night. So POPs were increased on Wed and drying conditions from Wed night through Thu night. Another low pressure and cold front looks to approach the area late this week into next weekend, increasing rain chances toward Sat.
Highs Tuesday and Wednesday slightly cooler than earlier in the week, with temperatures in the upper 70s to mid-80s from north to south. Lower 80s on Thu and Fri and on the 70s on Sat.
AVIATION.
VFR conditions are forecast to prevail through the period. Shallow ground fog could once again develop around sunrise Sunday. A few terminals may experience brief reductions in visibility. However, there is too much uncertainty in the duration and areal extent of any potential ground fog to include in the TAFs at this time.
MARINE.
Rest of Today-Sunday . High pressure will remain across Florida and the western Atlantic, with the ridge axis in place across the northern FL peninsula. Favorable boating conditions expected. Though, southeast winds 10-15 knots tonight will increase to around 15 knots on Sunday, creating more of a wind chop. Seas 2-4 feet.
Sun night-Mon night . Atlantic ridge persisting but winds shifting as the ridge moves southward from central FL. SE/S flow on Sunday night veering S/SW on Monday ahead of an approaching front. Winds remaining generally around 10- 15kts, with dry conditions. Then, veering N as the front enters east central Florida Monday night. Seas 3-4ft. A slight chance of showers developing north of the Cape Monday night along the front.
Tue-Thu . The aforementioned front will then stall into Tuesday, with offshore winds increasing to 15-20 kt on Tue from the east and seas building to 5-7 ft offshore. Winds becoming S/SW on Wednesday and from the N as the front pushes south on Thu.
