(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus62 ktae 172347 afdtae area forecast discussion national weather service tallahassee fl 747 pm edt Sat aug 17 2019 Update Pops were adjusted down for most locations during the evening update. Activity has decreased significantly during the past couple hours. The only exception is the dixie county area is still receiving rain. A flood watch is still in effect through tonight for this area and may be extended longer. Flooding has been reported in steinhatchee and several roads are closed. Activity will increase again overnight before daybreak, mainly over the gulf and near the coast. Aviation [through 00z Monday] MVFR conditions are likely at tlh, ecp and vld in the overnight and morning hours. Ifr conditions are possible at dhn and aby. Thunderstorms and rain will be widespread tomorrow beginning near ecp in the overnight morning hours and spreading inland by late morning and afternoon. Prev discussion [300 pm edt] Near term [through tonight] Not much change in the overall synoptic pattern. While models do show more moisture lifting northward into our al and ga zones overnight, the deepest moisture will be across our florida zones where pws will be over 2.0". Will show a pop gradient with slight (20%) chance north to likely to categorical(60 to 80%) south. Patchy fog (some possibly dense) will develop toward daybreak. Min temps will be in the lower 70s. Short term [Sunday through Monday night] The upper trough or weakness between the two upper ridges will remain over the southeast us. Southwesterly flow will continue to pump deep tropical moisture into the area. A weak surface trough over the northeast gulf will continue to become more diffuse but the area of higher pops and moisture will remain the eastern big bend florida counties into southern georgia. Heavy rainfall remains a concern where recent heavy rainfall has fallen and heighten the flood risk. Perhaps the big bend gets a much needed break from the recent rainfall Monday as the axis of higher moisture shifts into southern georgia and alabama. With the abundance of cloud cover highs will be in the mid to upper 80s further south and low 90s further north with less cloud cover. Long term [Tuesday through Saturday] Persistent wet pattern to continue through the extended with no major systems affecting the area at this time. Low level southwesterly flow will continue to advect high moisture into the area with pwats around 2 inches each day. We will transition to more summerlike regime with overnight convection over the gulf waters and seabreeze and mesoscale driven convection across land areas during the day. Pops during that time will be average to above average and highs each day in the upper 80s to around 90 degrees. Marine Winds will remain elevated overnight with small craft exercise caution conditions in waters east of apalachicola. Winds slowly decrease over the next few days with seas falling as well. Favorable marine conditions return for the start of the work week outside of marine and coastal thunderstorms. |
Fire weather A wet pattern will be in place through this week. No fire weather concerns except some patchy morning fog. Hydrology A flood watch remains in effect for dixie, taylor, and lafayette counties. A coastal flood advisory also remains in effect for the dixie county coast for minor inundation from the gulf due to persistent southwesterly flow. Inundation of 1 to 2 feet appears possible around high tide this afternoon. Widespread radar estimates of 8 to 12 inches of rainfall has fallen over the past 48-72 hours across dixie and southern taylor counties with the band of heavy rain continuing at this hour. Another 2 to 4 inches is possible through tonight and tomorrow with isolated higher amounts. Elsewhere, 1 to 2 inches with localized higher amounts across our fl counties and and extreme southwestern ga over the next few days.

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. 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. |
