NWS Forecaster Discussion
619 fxus62 kmfl 181852 afdmfl Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Miami Florida 252 PM EDT Friday Jul 18 2008 Aviation... isolated to scattered showers and a few isolated thunderstorms will continue this afternoon and early evening. But only expecting the South Florida terminals to experience vicinity showers...with a brief thunderstorm possible. Brief periods of MVFR conditions are possible across the South Florida terminals through the evening hours...but mainly kmia...kopf...kfxe and kapf. 60 && Previous discussion... /issued 228 PM EDT Friday Jul 18 2008/ Discussion...a ridge of high pressure extends from the Atlantic and across southern Florida while a tropical disturbance heads westward across the Caribbean. The ridge axis at the surface currently runs from around Grand Bahama to Broward County and into Mainland Monroe with the ridge tilted south with height into the middle levels. This is allowing the sea breeze to move inland more easily in Miami- Dade than in Palm Beach Colorado yet all storm motion is generally toward the northeast. This will keep most activity concentrated from the western suburbs of West Palm Beach to the lake region this afternoon and early evening. This ridge is expected to remain in control through the remainder of the forecast deepening and increasing the easterly flow as it shifts northward, however precipitation chances will slightly increase or decrease through the period pending on upper disturbances and ridges. The tropical disturbance currently heading east across the Caribbean may slightly increase the pressure gradient and increase the easterly flow Saturday night and Sunday morning as the northern extent of the inverted trough passes by. A slight increase in moisture may also occur for far south portions of the County Warning Area and East Coast locations during the Saturday night / Sunday morning hours as nocturnal thunderstorms may move inland, however the bulk of this disturbance is expected to remain well south of the area. This slightly extra moisture may also lead to slightly more convection along the West Coast sea breeze with the mav coming up with around 50 probability of precipitation for Sun afternoon/evening... at this time only increased to 40 and will let later shifts make The Jump if later guidance continues to increase, but a slightly wetter scenario is plausible for the West Coast since an upper trough is also expected to drift across the region from east to west. Monday and Tuesday an upper ridge may move across the area slightly decreasing area probability of precipitation as subsidence occurs, but another upper trough may pass over the region middle to late week possibly increasing the chance of precipitation yet again. Marine...high pressure is expected to generally remain in control of area weather through the period with winds at 15kts or less and seas at 4 feet or less, however the northern extent of an inverted trough is expected to pass South Florida Saturday night/ Sunday morning and slightly increase the southeast flow to around 15 kts during the night time and morning hours. Fire weather...no problems or concerns as typical humid South Florida conditions continue. && Preliminary point temps/pops...
