Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Jacksonville FL 1004 AM EDT Sun Mar 29 2020

NEAR TERM [Through Tonight].

Deep layer ridging is in place over the area. The upper level ridge is aloft of the FL Peninsula this morning and will be pushing off the east coast this afternoon and evening. The surface ridge of high pressure is centered out in the Atlantic to our east-southeast, rendering south-southwesterly flow this morning. Now that the fog and low clouds are beginning to dissipate across the area, temperatures will warm up and are expected to reach record or near record highs again this afternoon, peaking in the low-mid 90s. Overnight, temperatures will remain above normal in the mid 60s, upper 60s along the St. Johns River and the Atlantic coastline. Fog is expected to develop again overnight in north- central FL and the Suwannee Valley.

PREV DISCUSSION [741 AM EDT].

SHORT TERM [Monday Through Tuesday].

Monday: With little airmass change and weak high pressure ridge in place expect near record highs and dry conditions to continue with highs near 90 degrees inland, while Atlc beaches will be slightly cooler with a stronger sea breeze and highs in the lower/middle 80s.

Monday Night: Old frontal boundary starts to lift back northward across the region as a warm front and a bit more cloud cover is expected with mild overnight lows in the 60s once again and some patchy fog is possible but not as dense as previous nights.

Tuesday: Low pressure develops over SE US and track across GA during the afternoon hours and into the Carolinas Tue Night. This feature will bring one more day with above normal Max Temps into the 80s/near 90 while breezy SW winds develop at 15-25 mph with gusts around 35 mph at times. Severe storms will be possible by the afternoon and evening hours ahead of a trailing cold front with best chances of storms with damaging winds/isolated tornadoes and hail across SE GA with lesser chances of severe storm coverage across NE FL where coverage will be limited by drier airmass already in place. Cold front and storms should clear the region during the overnight hours as they push offshore. Partial clearing is expected and temps should fall into the 50s by Wed Morning.

LONG TERM [Wednesday Through Saturday].

Wed/Thu/Fri: A cooler/drier NW flow behind the front will lead to Max temps closer to climo values to start April mostly in the 70s to near 80 degrees. Lows will actually fall into the 40s over inland areas Wed Night, otherwise lows generally in the 50s through the dry period under Mostly Clear to Partly Cloudy skies.

Sat: Long range models not in great agreement at this time frame but as High pressure pushes offshore, some moisture return in southerly flow ahead of next shortwave aloft could provide for some widely scattered showers or an isolated storm with Max Temps slightly above normal around 80 degrees.

AVIATION. [Through 12Z Monday]

IFR-VLIFR conditions continue to spread east-northeastward across much of NE FL and SE GA this morning. Cigs and vsbys should improve to MVFR by around 14Z, then to VFR around 15Z. Sustained southerly surface winds around 5 knots this morning will shift to southwesterly around 10 knots by 16Z, then the Atlantic sea breeze will develop and move across SGJ towards 17Z, SSI after 18Z and CRG towards 20Z. South-southeasterly winds with sustained speeds of 10-15 knots are anticipated in the wake of this sea breeze boundary, becoming lighter after sunset.

MARINE.

Lighter southerly flow at 10-15 knots Today, then becoming light offshore flow late tonight and early Monday following weak frontal passage. Weak onshore flow develops Monday afternoon with Atlc sea breeze development. Southerly flow increases to 15-20 knots on Tuesday ahead of next cold front, then potential Small Craft Advisory headlines Tuesday Night with the frontal passage as offshore flow develops at 15-25 knots that continues into Wed. Flow slowly becomes northerly on Thursday as High pressure builds north of the waters at 10-15 knots but seas remain elevated in the 3-7 ft range.

FIRE WEATHER.

Hot and dry conditions continue today with Min RH's in the 30-40% range while SW winds at 10-15 mph with continue the threat of some slightly higher daytime dispersions this afternoon. The drier air behind the weak frontal passage tonight will lead to Min RH's around 25% across inland SE GA but winds less than 10 mph will prevent the need for any Red Flag headlines.
