8/26/2020 The 7 day forecast is taking about 5 seconds to load but it will eventually load. NOAA is still working on it. 8/18/2020 NOAA continues to have trouble. Wind guest will occasionally be left off graphs. I am working with NOAA to resolve the issue. 12/16/2019 NOAA is having trouble with requests that include wind gusts. I am posting graphs without wind gusts until it gets fixed. 10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. |

AVIATION. [Through 00Z Wednesday]
Clear skies with light winds will prevail through the period.
PREV DISCUSSION [216 PM EST].
NEAR TERM. /through Tuesday/ .
High pressure will build overhead from the west this afternoon, and remain overhead through Tuesday. With the high overhead, calm to light winds, with clear skies expected. Temperatures will fall to around freezing inland Tonight, with mid to upper 30s at the coast. Widespread frost will be expected across the region, with the exception of coastal communities where potential will be limited. Temperatures will recover to more seasonal levels Tuesday, with highs generally in the middle 60s.
SHORT TERM. /Tuesday night through Friday night/ .
The high pressure ridge will slide back toward the west Tuesday night, as a weak cold front moves southeast across area. Limited moisture associated with this front, so it is expected to pass through dry, although additional cloud cover anticipated. High pressure will build overhead Wednesday afternoon.
The high will sink to the south Wednesday night, as a warm front will extend east across central GA. The high will sink further to the south Thursday, allowing the warm front to move into southern GA. Waves moving along this front could produce showers over SE GA Thursday. The high will move into southern FL Thursday night into Friday. This will allow the frontal zone to sink to near the FL/GA line by Friday morning. The parent low will move east along the boundary during the day Friday, dragging its associated cold front south of the area Friday night. The best chance for showers this period will be during the day Friday into Friday evening as the low passes through. Can not rule out a few thunderstorms over SE GA Friday.
Temperatures will trend a little below normal Tuesday night, then above normal for Wednesday through Friday night. NE FL will have the warmest air in place this period, due to the position of the warm front.
LONG TERM. /Saturday through Monday/ .
The cold front will sink south of forecast area Saturday morning, as high pressure builds to the north northeast. A weak coastal trough is expected to develop Saturday afternoon into Saturday night. This feature could lead to additional coastal clouds, and the potential for a few showers. The high will build more toward the northeast Sunday, then east southeast Monday. With the high to the north and northeast, the flow will become onshore, leading to above normal temperatures at night, and near normal readings during the day through Sunday. With the high to the east southeast Monday, the flow will be more from the southeast to south, which will result in an increase in warm advection and temperatures above normal. A frontal system will approach from the west Monday, which will provide the chance for a few showers for western areas.
