Issued at 727 AM EDT Fri May 3 2024
Prevailing VFR conditions with winds less than 12 knots expected through the forecast period. Rain and storm chances remain on the low side, so will not include any mention of SHRA or TSRA at any of the terminals at this time.
.SHORT TERM (TDY-Tonight)...
Issued at 455 AM EDT Fri May 3 2024
Other than a few clouds decorating the skies along the Nature Coast, it is a mostly clear morning across the Florida Peninsula.
Ridging aloft and surface high pressure remains in place today.
This should keep light easterly winds in place with the afternoon sea breeze shifting winds onshore. Slightly drier conditions are anticipated which should limit how much activity, if any, develops today. Most of the guidance keeps the highest chances across souther parts of the state. In addition, afternoon temperatures will be around 90 degrees, so residents and visitors should stay hydrated to prevent any heat related illnesses.
