Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jacksonville FL 205 PM EST Fri Dec 6 2019
Near Term. /through Saturday/ .
The region will be between an inverted trough off the Atlantic coast, and a low approaching from the central Gulf coast Tonight, with a weak frontal boundary stretched across area between these systems. An upper trough will move across region this afternoon and evening. Additional cloud cover will accompany this trough, with a few sprinkles or light showers possible. During the day Saturday, the trough to the east will move further east, as low over gulf moves slowly to the southwest of the region. High pressure will ridge south across the region, pushing weak frontal boundary to the south. Mainly dry conditions anticipated for Saturday, but a brief shower can not be ruled out.
Temperatures will trend near normal this period.
Short Term. /Saturday night through Tuesday night/ .
Atlantic coast trough will move west back toward the coast Saturday night into Sunday, while the low over the gulf weakens, and ridge continues over forecast area extending from high to the north. A few showers will be possible, mainly near the coast.
The low pressure areas weaken Sunday night into Monday, with high pressure building to the east. The high will sink to the southeast Monday night into Tuesday morning as a cold front approaches from the northwest. This front will move through Tuesday afternoon into Tuesday night, with a round of showers expected to accompany it.
Temperatures will trend above normal this period.
Long Term. /Wednesday through Friday/ .
High pressure will build to the northwest Wednesday, pushing the front to the south. High pressure will strengthen to the north Wednesday night into Thursday. This will lead to a period of enhanced onshore flow, and the potential for mainly coastal showers. The high will build to the northeast Thursday night into Friday increasing the onshore flow and potential for showers.
Temperatures this period trend near normal Wednesday into Thursday, then above normal for Friday.

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
