...New UPDATE...

.UPDATE...
Issued at 947 AM EDT Wed Apr 2 2025

A rather large surface area of high pressure will continue to
build into the region as today progresses. As it does this, the
pressure gradient will rapidly tighten across South Florida which
will result in strengthening southeasterly wind flow heading into
the afternoon hours. Gusts of 25 to 30 mph will be possible
especially along the immediate east coast during the afternoon
hours. High temperatures this afternoon will rise into the mid 80s
across the east coast metro areas and into the lower 90s across
interior portions of Southwest Florida.

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Thursday)
Issued at 204 AM EDT Wed Apr 2 2025

Areas of patchy fog, some of it dense, may once again develop
early this morning across portions of South Florida thanks to
very light wind flow and above average low-level moisture.
This could result in reduced visibilities in some spots until the
early hours of the morning before dissipating as wind flow resumes.

More generally speaking, mid-level ridging will continue to
build over the Florida peninsula today as surface high strengthens
over the western Atlantic. This will keep South Florida under
fresh to moderate easterly to southeasterly winds, while a
fairly dry air mass sets up aloft. As a result, sensible weather
will remain warm and dry through the short term period. A
few isolated showers could develop along the sea breeze
boundaries each day, but chances remain too low to be
mentionable (< 15%). Temperatures will continue to rise each
day, with highs along the East Coast metro in the mid 80s, and
in the low 90s across southwest FL. With lingering moisture
mid-week, there will be potential for heat indices reaching the
mid-90s across SW Florida, especially on Wednesday.
Temperatures overnight will also remain a few degrees above
average, with lows tonight in the low 70s across the East Coast,
and upper 60s inland.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 204 AM EDT Wed Apr 2 2025

Mostly rain-free and warm weather conditions will prevail
throughout the remainder of the week as strong mid-level
ridging remains in place over the area. High temperatures
each day will reach the mid 80s near the coasts, and could
potentially rise into the upper 80s to lower 90s across the interior.

Models suggest the high could begin to break down late
this weekend into next week as a front approaches, ushering
in the next bout of precipitation for the area.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 728 AM EDT Wed Apr 2 2025

VFR conditions will prevail throughout the forecast period.
Southeast winds will increase after 14z and will range between 15
and 20 kts through the afternoon and into the evening hours. Wind
gusts of 25 to 28 kts will be possible across the east coast
terminals this afternoon.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 204 AM EDT Wed Apr 2 2025

Increasing southeasterly winds today will begin a period of
hazardous marine conditions which should last into the
upcoming weekend.  Current forecast trends suggest that
small craft advisory conditions could begin tonight and last
for several days. Winds are forecast to be near 20 knots and
seas up to 6 feet.

.BEACHES...
Issued at 204 AM EDT Wed Apr 2 2025

Increasing onshore winds will result in a high risk for rip currents
along the Atlantic coastline through the end of the workweek.
