AMZ400 Synopsis For Altamaha Sound Ga To Flagler Beach Fl Out To 60 Nm- 239 Am Edt Fri May 16 2025
Synopsis -
atlantic high pressure will continue to extend its axis across the florida peninsula through the weekend and early next week, keeping a prevailing offshore wind flow in place across our local waters. The afternoon sea breeze will shift winds to south and southeasterly for the near shore waters through around Sunset, with winds shifting to southerly during the evening hours. A weakening frontal boundary will enter the southeastern states late this weekend, but this front will stall to the north of the georgia waters. The next significant frontal boundary will move across our local waters towards midweek, accompanied by widely scattered showers and Thunderstorms.
Gulf stream -

71 nautical miles east of flagler beach. 80 nautical miles east of saint augustine beach. 89 nautical miles east of jacksonville beach. 94 nautical miles east of st simons island.

AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 153 AM EDT Fri May 16 2025
VFR conditions will prevail at the regional terminals through at least 08Z. Low stratus ceilings and fog are expected to advect across the Suwannee Valley towards the GNV and VQQ terminals after 08Z, with enough confidence in this scenario to indicate prevailing MVFR visibilities at VQQ towards 09Z and at GNV towards 11Z. We left TEMPO groups for LIFR conditions at VQQ through around 12Z and for IFR conditions at GNV through around 13Z. Fog and low stratus could approach JAX after sunrise, but confidence was too low to indicate sub-VFR conditions at this time.
Otherwise, VFR conditions will then prevail at the regional terminals by 14Z. West-southwesterly surface winds will remain sustained around 5 knots at the inland terminals overnight and 5-10 knots at the SSI and SGJ coastal terminals. The Atlantic sea breeze boundary will develop near the coastal terminals towards 18Z, with surface winds shifting to southeasterly at SGJ and south-southeasterly at SSI, where sustained speeds will increase to around 10 knots. The sea breeze may push inland to CRG towards 22Z, where winds will become south-southeasterly briefly before sunset. West-southwesterly surface winds will otherwise increase to around 10 knots by 19Z at the rest of the inland terminals, followed by speeds diminishing to around 5 knots by 06Z Saturday.
NEAR TERM
(Through Friday)
Issued at 143 PM EDT Thu May 15 2025
Tonight: High pressure ridge axis will remain locked in at the surface with a dry westerly steering flow in the low levels of the atmosphere, while high pressure ridge also builds in from the West across the SE US states. There are some high clouds pushing over the top of this "dirty" ridge and expect enough to call for mostly clear to partly cloudy skies, but these clouds will remain fairly thin and will not prevent temps from falling into the mid/upper 60s over inland areas, along with some patchy fog around sunrise Friday morning, with the HRRR still supporting some locally dense fog along the I-75 corridor of inland NE FL between 4am-8am Friday morning. Otherwise milder along the Atlantic Coastal areas, with lows in the lower/middle 70s.
Friday...No changes in the local weather pattern as dry and hot westerly flow will continue with ridge aloft suppressing any afternoon convection as PWATs remain only around 1 inch, while the near breezy westerly flow at 10-15G20-25 mph will keep the East Coast sea breeze pinned at the Atlantic coast allowing for the hot temps to push all the way to east with near record highs generally in the middle 90s inland, but some upper 90s possible along the I-95 corridor, especially in the urban centers with peak heat indices nudging just over 100F for the first time this year.
Rainfall chances remain around 10 percent or less in this pattern.
SHORT TERM
(Friday Night through Saturday night)
Issued at 143 PM EDT Thu May 15 2025
It'll be hot and dry on Saturday across the area as high pressure sits overhead. With west/southwest winds, high temperatures will reach the 90s area-wide, including at the immediate Atlantic coast. Heat indices will not be much higher than actual temperatures given drier air in place, but they will approach the upper 90s to near 100 in the afternoon.
Mild low temperatures are forecast Friday and Saturday nights, only falling into the mid 60s to low 70s. With calm winds overnight, patchy fog is likely for inland northeast Florida, with locally dense fog possible near the I-75 corridor.
LONG TERM
(Sunday through next Thursday)
Issued at 143 PM EDT Thu May 15 2025
Above average temperatures with highs in the 90s continue through Wednesday, with mainly dry conditions. A front will sink southward and lay across central Georgia on Sunday, before lifting back northward on Monday. Isolated showers and storms will be possible across southeast Georgia on Sunday as the front sits nearby, but chances are only at about 15-20% at this time.
MARINE
Issued at 143 PM EDT Thu May 15 2025
No headlines expected as high pressure ridge axis remains south of the local waters over the next 5 days, while a weak frontal boundary will stall well north of the waters over the SE US states into the Carolinas. This will continue a mostly offshore West to Southwest flow at 10-15 knots with seas 2-4 ft, with a daily Southeast to South sea breeze development along the NE FL/SE GE coast each afternoon and evening. A few of the evening nocturnal southerly surges may come close to 15-20 knots going into the weekend, but not enough to warrant any headlines with this afternoon's forecast package.
Rip Currents: Low to Moderate Risk into the weekend as surf/breakers remain in the 1-2 ft range along with a pinned East Coast sea breeze along the Atlantic Coast each afternoon.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 143 PM EDT Thu May 15 2025
Hot and dry conditions are expected to persist through the weekend, with minRH falling into the 30-35% range Friday. Near record temperatures and occasionally breezy southwest to west winds expected into the weekend. Dispersion will be good on Friday, with high dispersion levels Saturday, especially for Southeast GA.
