SYNOPSIS. High pressure will hover over the Southeast through tonight, then move off the coast mid to late week.
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/. High pressure and dry air will prevail across the region today. With heights rising, warm air advection and full sun, temperatures will continue to rise into mid 60s in most areas. A seabreeze should form today, resulting in upper 50s to low 60s just along the coast. For the update, did increase MAX temps up a degree. Dew points will drop throughout the late morning/early afternoon resulting in RH's dropping into the teens in places, resulting in a very dry day.
Tonight: Formidable surface high pressure remains anchored atop the area, with the planetary boundary layer to quickly decouple. This along with clear skies and a dry continental air mass will again lead to excellent radiational cooling. Scattered to widespread frost will develop overnight, encompassing most places inland from US-17. Another Frost Advisory will become necessary. Additionally, some places from Berkeley to Allendale and Hampton County, plus many of our counties inland over Georgia could experience a brief period of freezing temperatures. A Freeze Watch/Warning might also be required.
SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/. The mid-levels will consist of a broad ridge with its axis over the MS Valley Tuesday morning. The ridge axis will be located over the East Coast by late Tuesday, remaining in place Wednesday while strengthening. The ridge should shift offshore by late Thursday. At the surface, high pressure will be centered over the Southeast U.S. Tuesday, then slowly shift offshore Tuesday night, and continue to move away into Thursday. The high will continue to dominate our forecast. Expect dry conditions through Thursday with occasional cirrus. The combination of a moderating air mass, warming 850 mb temperatures, and rising thicknesses will lead to a warming temperature trend each day/night. Highs should generally be in the upper 60s to near 70 degrees Tuesday, which is near normal for this time of year. High temperatures rise above normal, into the lower to mid 70s Wednesday, and then the mid 70s on Thursday. Though, it'll be cooler at the beaches all three days due to onshore winds. There won't be any frost or freeze concerns at night.
LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/. Models remain in excellent agreement for the long term forecast. They keep high pressure far off the coast Thursday night into Saturday. The periphery of the high will stretch into the Southeast U.S., bringing dry conditions with above normal temperatures. A cold front approaches from the north on Sunday. Though, models have it dissipating as it gets closer to our area, so we're only forecasting slight chance POPs for portions of our area and slightly cooler temperatures.

AVIATION /15Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/. VFR through 12Z Tuesday.
Extended Aviation Outlook: VFR.
MARINE. Today: Continental high pressure will dominate. The core of the high initially over central and southern Appalachians will see the formation of another high over the immediate area, as a weak lee side trough develops. N and NE will be at their highest this morning, generally at or below 15 kt outside of the stronger winds of 15-20 kt for the outer Georgia waters. As the gradient slackens considerably, winds will diminish to 10 kt or less all waters during the afternoon as the local sea breeze circulations develop. Seas up to 4 to 5 feet will prevail on the outer Georgia waters, while 2 to 3 foot seas will persist over all waters within 20 nm throughout the day.
Tonight: Strong high pressure remains firmly in control, with weak onshore winds early to become more offshore in direction late at night as land breeze influences form due to the colder air over land versus the warmer ocean waters.
Extended Marine: High pressure will slowly shift offshore Tuesday and continue to move away through the end of the week. The proximity of the high will bring tranquil marine conditions throughout the extended time period. No marine headlines are expected.
