Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Tyndall AFB, FL

SHORT TERM AND LONG TERM
(This Evening through Sunday)
Issued at 338 PM EDT Mon Apr 20 2026

There is currently a Red Flag Warning in effect for the entire region for critically low RHs, gusty winds, and ongoing drought conditions, several wildfires are ongoing across the region. Please obey local burn bans. See the Fire Weather Section below for more information.

Now post-frontal, dry northerly air continues to advect into the area as surface high pressure begins to build over the region. By Wednesday, the surface high moves off the Atlantic Coast and southeast to southerly flow becomes reestablished. This will allow moisture, at least at the lower levels, to begin pushing inland and mixing out the dry air. By this weekend, models are hinting at a frontal system that could potentially bring a chance for rainfall, however, rainfall totals at this time don't look promising when it comes to improving ongoing drought conditions. Overall, expect a dry and warm work week with increasing chances for rainfall this weekend.

Daytime highs throughout the week are expected to be in the 80s with overnight lows generally in the upper 40s tonight, warming into the low 60s by Sunday morning.
