Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Edgewater, FL

DISCUSSION
Issued at 300 PM EDT Tue Apr 14 2026

Thru tonight...Scattered marine stratocu has spit out some sprinkles/light showers along portions of the coast today and this should diminish tonight. Noticeably less cirrus today and the diurnal cu field will diminish after sunset esp over the interior with skies becoming mostly clear there. With lighter winds, there is a little better chance for patchy fog across northern sections (Orlando north and west) toward sunrise as indicated by the HRRR on several consecutive runs. Though NBM probs remain low at less than 20%.

Wed-Sun...Low level ridge axis remains north of the area through Thursday and then model guidance shows it settling southward across the area late week and south FL by Sunday. Winds will gradually weaken and veer in response to this ridge axis.
Meanwhile, ridge axis aloft will remain across the area, resulting in a warming trend through the period and overall dry conditions. Onshore winds and inland moving sea breeze will continue to keep warmest max temperatures across the interior each day. Highs will remain closer to normal in the upper 70s/low 80s at the coast Wednesday and Thursday, and be warmer than normal inland, in the mid to upper 80s. As temperatures continue to climb into late week and into the weekend, max temps will become above normal area-wide, ranging from the low to mid 80s at the coast and climbing into the low 90s across the interior. For inland sites, these highs will be nearing record values. The greatest potential for any tied or broken daily records still looks to be at Leesburg, especially Saturday (see record highs below).

Mon-Tue...A weak cold front is forecast to move through the area Sunday night into early Monday. This will finally lead to a cooling trend early next week with slightly below normal max temps on Tue. There will be some increase in rain chances, however moisture looks meager and the 12Z GFS is trending toward the drier ECWMF. So PoPs remain on the low end (around 20-30%), focused on central/southern sections Mon. Both models show a period of breezy to windy northeast to east winds developing behind the front that will continue into Tuesday.

MARINE
Issued at 300 PM EDT Tue Apr 14 2026

Boating conditions will continue to become more favorable the remainder of the week and into the weekend. Ridge axis of high pressure across the Atlantic remains north of the waters through Wed and then settles southward across central Florida late this week, then south of the local waters Sun. This will produce a gradual veering wind flow becoming more SE and S and then finally SW-W on Sunday. Each afternoon though there will be 10-14 knots E/SE sea breeze near the coast. Primary contribution to seas will be an east swell with a bit of wind wave. Combined seas will fall below 5 FT Wed and range 2-3 FT Fri-Sun.

AVIATION
(18Z TAFs)
Issued at 145 PM EDT Tue Apr 14 2026

VFR conditions through the TAF period. Mostly dry conditions today, but an isolated sprinkle can not be ruled out. However, since confidence is so low (rain chances 10 percent or less), VCSH is not included in the TAF. ESE winds of 8-12 KT with gusts to 20 KT this afternoon will decrease to 5-10 KT after 00/01Z before becoming light later in the overnight hours. ESE winds will increase to 8-12 KT once again by mid morning Wednesday with occasional gusts to 20 KT in the afternoon, mainly along the coast from VRB southward, as winds become enhanced behind the east coast sea breeze.

FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 300 PM EDT Tue Apr 14 2026

Prevailing onshore winds will continue through Thursday as ridge axis of high pressure across the Atlantic remains just north of the area. Easterly winds will increase 10 to 15 mph each afternoon behind the sea breeze. Gusts up to 20 mph will be possible along the coast. Dry conditions are forecast to prevail through late week, with a gradual warming trend. Onshore flow will keep Min RH values above critical levels in the mid 40s to mid 50s at the coast.
However, well inland, roughly Kissimmee northward, min RH values will fall as low as 30-35 percent Wednesday and Thursday afternoons.
Wind speeds are forecast to remain below 15 mph across this area where lower RH values occur so Red Flag conditions are not forecast.
Dispersion values will be Good to Very Good Wednesday and generally Good Thursday.
