294 FXUS62 KMFL 132348 AFDMFL Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 748 PM EDT Sun Apr 13 2025 ...New AVIATION... .SHORT TERM... (This afternoon through Monday) Issued at 1147 AM EDT Sun Apr 13 2025 High pressure settling in over the region will bring a lightening easterly wind flow and a dry pattern to kick off the week. Rain will remain out of the forecast along with little in terms of cloud cover through Monday. A northeasterly to easterly wind flow today will become light and variable overnight before returning out of the east- southeast on Monday. Temperatures tonight will range from the mid 50s inland to the lower to mid 60s along the coast. Some areas along the immediate Atlantic coast could remain around 70. High temperatures will climb on Monday with upper 70s along the sea breeze cooled Atlantic coast ranging up to the mid to upper 80s over inland Southwest Florida. && .LONG TERM... (Monday night through next Saturday) Issued at 226 PM EDT Sun Apr 13 2025 In general, rather weak mid level troughing remains over the region through the middle of the week. At the surface, high pressure shifts further into the western Atlantic as a weakening boundary pushes through the Florida Panhandle on Tuesday. This weakening frontal boundary will gradually push southeastward Tuesday night into Wednesday across the Florida Peninsula. The latest global and ensemble model guidance suite continue to remain in agreement that this front will be very weak to almost becoming diffuse as it passes through the region. While some moisture advection will be taking place out ahead of the front, it will still have problems overcoming the dry air mass already in place which will keep shower chances very minimal to non existent as it passes through. High temperatures on Tuesday and Wednesday will generally range from the lower 80s along both of the immediate east and west coast to the mid to upper 80s across the interior sections. Heading into the second half of the week, mid level troughing exits the region and moves into the western Atlantic as deep mid level ridging builds into South Florida from the Gulf. At the surface, the very weak frontal boundary exits to the south as a large area of high pressure centered off to the north builds into South Florida. This area of high pressure will be the main synoptic feature influencing the sensible weather across the region for the end of the week and heading into the upcoming weekend. With plenty of subsidence in place, dry air will hold steady across the region during this time frame along with a moderate easterly wind flow. High temperatures for Thursday through Saturday will generally range from the lower 80s across the east coast to around 90 across interior portions of Southwest Florida. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 747 PM EDT Sun Apr 13 2025 Light and variable winds overnight with VFR cigs and vis continuing throughout the entire 00z TAF period. Winds will veer onshore during the afternoon hours tomorrow with southwesterly winds at KAPF by 17-19z, increasing southeasterly flow for all east coast terminals as the Atlantic sea-breeze moves in. && .MARINE... Issued at 1147 AM EDT Sun Apr 13 2025 Benign conditions return across the local waters heading into this week. A light to gentle breeze is expected with dry conditions. Seas will be 2-4 feet in the Atlantic and 1-3 feet in the Gulf. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1147 AM EDT Sun Apr 13 2025 A prolonged period of dry air will settle over South Florida for much of this week. Relative humidity values could fall to or below critical thresholds each day, which may lead to elevated fire weather concerns. 20 foot winds will generally remain below critical levels, but there remains a chance for some mixing to occur that could increase winds at times. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
