UPDATE
Issued at 857 PM EST Thu Nov 30 2023
High pressure ridge extends from the mid Atlantic and SE seaboard well offshore into the adjacent Atlantic, producing light-moderate onshore/east wind flow. KMLB 88D imagery shows low-topped light to moderate showers have been developing well offshore the FL east coast since late afternoon. To the west, high clouds continue to increase overhead as forecast in the omnipresent southern branch of the jet stream.
Marine showers currently moving NW and are expected to approach, but remain a little offshore the FL east coast through sunrise.
Not nearly as chilly across the interior overnight, with mins ranging from the U50s far north to the M60s along the Space and Treasure Coasts. Forecast remains unchanged with only cosmetic tweaks to the grids for tonight.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION
Issued at 346 PM EST Thu Nov 30 2023
Friday...500mb ridging starts to build northward as surface high pressure translates seaward off the Atlantic coast. A warm front will surges north stretching from central Mississippi to the coastal Carolinas in the afternoon. Trailing behind, an active cold front with shower and storm activity is expected to approach the Deep South. Locally, mid level ridging helps to keep rain chances well north or offshore over the Atlantic on Friday. Another day with a mix of clouds and sunshine is expected, along with a noticeable climb in temperatures. Forecast highs range from the low 80s north to the mid 80s south.
Friday Night-Sunday...The pattern aloft amplifies a bit through Sat night as the mid-level ridge to the south shifts into the western Caribbean and a trough swings through the central US. The trough then begins to flatten out the ridge to the south as it pasts east of the Mississippi late Sun. A cluster of surface low pressure systems developing from the central U.S. to south of the Great Lakes, associated with the mid-level trough, track to the northeast through the weekend as high pressure off the Atlantic seaboard pushes farther offshore. SE winds slowly veer through the period, becoming westerly late Sun night, advecting higher moisture across Florida. The strung out cold front draped across the panhandle into the Gulf starts to approach Florida late Sun.
Modest rain chances (20%) return for, with higher chances (20-40%)
Sun ahead of the front. A few lightning storms will be possible, especially Sun. Warm again this weekend in southerly flow, with afternoon highs in the low-mid 80s and overnight lows in the upper 60s to around 70F.
Monday-Thursday...A fairly quiet first half of the week as high pressure across the southeastern US fills in behind the front, but some uncertainty how far south the high will make it, and where the frontal boundary will settle. 12Z ECM pushes the front south of Florida, while the 12Z GFS stalls it across south FL which result in higher than currently advertised rain chances (went with a consensus blend which is less than 10 pct at this time) through mid-week, especially across the south. For the second half of the week, a lot more uncertainty. 12Z guidance came in much more aggressive than previous runs, developing a sharp mid-upper level trough over the eastern US and a large attendant surface low.
Model trends have been consistently upward, but once again the GFS solution has been faster and more aggressive while the ECM is a little slower and weaker. Continued with consensus blend of guidance for the forecast at this juncture, which calls for highs sinking from the M70-L80s Mon to the U60-L70s mid-week, with lows holding steady in 50s, and northwest winds 10-15 mph. Further cooling and increasing winds are forecast Wed-Thu as the cold front associated with the low swings through, but low confidence in magnitude given how far out we're looking, and could realize temperatures lower and winds higher than currently forecast.
MARINE
Issued at 346 PM EST Thu Nov 30 2023
Friday...High pressure over the adjacent Atlantic continues to slide eastward, with southeast winds 10-15kt and seas 3-4ft.
Friday Night-Monday...High pressure over the western Atlantic extending over the local Atlantic waters retreats Sun ahead of an approaching cold front, which will drop through the waters late Sun-Mon. Generally favorable boating conditions through the weekend, though 3-4ft seas could be a bit choppy at times. SE winds 10-15kt Sat morning veer to south by Sun morning, and then SW Sun night ahead of the front. Winds shift to NW around 15kt behind the front Mon evening. Seas increase a bit to 4-5ft offshore late Mon. Isolated to scattered showers, and isolated lightning storms.
HYDROLOGY

The Saint Johns River at Astor is forecast to remain within Minor Flood Stage through early next week, while very slowly declining.
