Synopsis..A low pressure trough extending from a low pressure area across south florida will continue across the treasure coast atlantic waters overnight. Another low is forecast to develop offshore along the boundary on Sunday and move well northeast of the area into early next week. The trough will linger across the waters into early next week. Higher coverage of showers and storms is expected across the southern and offshore waters tonight and early Sunday. Mariners should continue to Monitor the tropical weather outlook from the national hurricane center and latest coastal waters forecast through the weekend regarding any impacts from potential development across the atlantic waters.

Area Discussion for - Melbourne, FL
(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus62 kmlb 241928 afdmlb area forecast discussion national weather service melbourne fl 328 pm edt Sat aug 24 2019 Discussion Current-tonight... A low pressure trough will continue across southern forecast area extending from a broad surface low across south fl to a developing sfc low well offshore across the atlantic late tonight. Mainly isolated convection in the form of showers is expected north of the trough through sunset with low level northeast flow and mid level drier air. Some locally heavy rain may develop with a few storms across far SRN sections into early evening from martin to southern okeechobee county. After sunset, much of the forecast area will be dry with a lingering low shower chance across coastal st lucie and all of martin county overnight. Lows will be mainly in the mid 70s. 12z GFS guidance in pretty good agreement with previous model runs, should see one more day of pops generally in the lower scattered range (except across the far south Monday near the trailing trough and deeper moisture) and then increasing shower storm chances expected into early next week. Previous discussion follows... Sunday-Wednesday (previous)... Wherever the center of the tropical surface low decides to (re)form consolidate over the next 24h, by sun morning it will be moving away from florida, tracking ne offshore the SE CONUS seaboard, between the atlantic ridge to its se and a pair of short wave troughs to its nw-n. Behind the departing low, the atlantic mid level ridge will rebuild westward into south florida thru mid week. Weak surface trough axis will trail SW from the the low into ecfl sun, while the slp pattern transitions to a broad col for mon-tue. By wed, a weak mid level short wave trough digs across the eastern conus, lowering heights across the SE CONUS and fl. An attendant surface cool front will drop toward nofl, with the low level flow becoming westerly across the peninsula. Sufficient mean moisture will support scattered to numerous diurnal showers storms for the next several afternoons, with pops averaging 60 pct (or ~10 pct either side of it). Weak steering flow the next several afternoons will portend some locally heavy (1-3") rainfall totals, typical of late august, each day. Wednesday looks to have a more pronounced w-wnw steering flow of about 10-15kt, which would limit rainfall totals but may increase the wind gust wet microburst potential. Temps look close to climo. Thursday-Saturday (previous)... Residual mid level weakness over florida will fill in as the broad trough to its north lights out, allowing the atlantic ridge to rebuild west toward ecfl. Guidance suggests that a broad low pressure area will form over offshore nofl thu morning from the frontal remnants, and then retrograde westward into the gomex through next weekend. This may result in higher mid week pops than what we are advertising (given it's in the day 6-7 time frame) followed by slight drying next weekend. Of course, this |
assumes the model guidance consensus out at days 6+ is close to being correct, and as early september approaches, significant forecast changes happen more often than not. Aviation Afternoon shower and storm chances have continued to trend downward since this morning, and precip mention in tafs have been scaled that way as well. Will keep vcsh mention across interior terminals through 21z-22z dry conditions prevail this evening and overnight. Along the coast, from mlb-dab, precip chances appear too low to include, but it's still possible a stray shower could move onshore from the atlantic. Shower chances for vrb-sua are a bit higher so vcsh remains through this evening with even a brief thunder mention at sua. Some model guidance is hinting at some MVFR and possibly ifr ceilings late tonight early Sunday morning across interior sites, but confidence is low. Marine Tonight... The surface trof will extend northeast from the treasure coast through the night. NE winds to 10 knots are expected north of the boundary with S SW winds to 10 knots south of the trof axis. Higher shower and storm coverage expected across the far southern and offshore waters through the late night hours. Seas 2-3 ft near shore and 3-4 ft well offshore. Sunday-Wednesday (modified)... Departing tropical low will leave a residual surface trough laying across the local atlantic sun, which will weaken through tue. Cyclonic (ne-sw) flow about the trough axis will slacken, becoming light (mainly) offshore through tue, but giving way to the onshore ecsb circ near the coast each afternoon. Stronger westerlies are advertised for wed, which may increase the threat to boaters of strong offshore-moving storms in the afternoon evening. 2-4ft seas on Sunday will drop back to mainly 2-3ft from Sun night onward, and then remain at or less than 3ft for the middle of next week.
