New NEAR TERM, SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, MARINE, FIRE WEATHER, HYDROLOGY

NEAR TERM
(Through Tuesday)
Issued at 213 PM EDT Mon Apr 28 2025

A stalling backdoor cold front continues to be the focal point for showers and storms this evening. The front becomes more diffuse Tuesday with showers and storms becoming more isolated in nature.
Surface high pressure off the Outer Banks of North Carolina should lead to a more robust East Coast seabreeze that may help to energize whatever is left of the backdoor cold front. Add in the Gulf Coast seabreeze along the Emerald coast and the best opportunity, around 40-50%, for rain will be over the Florida Panhandle. Elsewhere, there's a 20-30% chance for rain. Locally heavy will be the primary concern within any of the storms as the steering flow is rather weak. Gusty winds and some hail cannot be ruled out within any of the stronger storms that happen to develop Tuesday.

Otherwise, we'll remain above normal with temperatures falling into the middle 60s for lows tonight and middle to upper 80s for highs Tuesday.

SHORT TERM
(Tuesday night through Wednesday night)
Issued at 213 PM EDT Mon Apr 28 2025

Ridging will build in across the eastern US with high pressure building into the southeast. Drier air will move into the area from the east which will help mitigate rain chances. Only isolated showers and storms are expected Wednesday afternoon, mostly west of the Flint River. Lows will be in the 60s with highs in the upper half of the 80s. Some patchy fog will develop the next few nights as well.

LONG TERM
(Thursday through Sunday)
Issued at 213 PM EDT Mon Apr 28 2025

Ridging breaks down late in the week as a trough crosses the Mississippi River. A cold front moves into our area Friday into Saturday. Moisture quality is not great with PWATs around 1.3 to 1.5 inches, but enough for some scattered showers and storms Friday through Saturday. Most of these will be diurnally driven storms, peaking during the afternoon then fading some overnight.
It's too early to determine any specifics on strong or severe storm potential, but at this point, the shear looks pretty weak with moderate instability. This would lend toward maybe a strong storm or two, but more clarity to come later in the week.

Temperatures remain above normal through the period with highs in the mid to upper 80s and lows in the 60s.

AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 131 PM EDT Mon Apr 28 2025

MVFR ceilings linger across KVLD, KABY, and KDHN as a backdoor cold front is pushing southwest across the region. This front will be the focal point for showers and storms this afternoon, so have included some VCTS for KVLD, KDHN, and KTLH along with KECP for any seabreeze storms that get going. Showers and storms should wind down this evening as another round of MVFR to IFR ceilings develop across most TAF sites. There are some indications fog may develop over the Florida Panhandle, so have introduced some lower visibility for KECP with this TAF package. Other sites may see fog develop near the aerodrome, especially those that see rain this afternoon/evening, but confidence was not high enough to include at this sites quite yet.

MARINE
Issued at 213 PM EDT Mon Apr 28 2025

A backdoor cold front slides into our marine area tonight with strong high pressure building southwestward into our area.
Easterly flow develops with potentially some nocturnal surges up to cautionary levels. As a cold front approaches the area late in the week, flow turns more southerly Thursday into Friday. The weakens as it moves through the area late in the week, leading to a decrease in winds. Seas will generally be tranquil only around 1 to 3 feet.

FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 213 PM EDT Mon Apr 28 2025

A backdoor cold front is in the process of stalling over the region this afternoon and evening. As a result, isolated to scattered showers and storms remain in the forecast through at least Tuesday with lesser coverage anticipated Wednesday. Storms will be capable of producing gusty, erratic winds and dangerous lightning. Easterly to southeasterly breezes are forecast for all districts during the day Tuesday with MinRH generally between 40 to 45 percent.

Another round of fog is expected tonight, mainly in the Florida Panhandle into southeastern Alabama.

HYDROLOGY
Issued at 213 PM EDT Mon Apr 28 2025

Some locally heavy downpours are possible in some thunderstorms this afternoon and again Tuesday afternoon. However, this won't be enough to cause any significant flooding concerns.
