AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
359 AM EST FRI DEC 18 2015

.DISCUSSION...

FOR TODAY...A COLD FRONT CONTINUES TO MOVE INTO NORTHERN FLORIDA
AND THEN FORECAST TO  ENTER CENTRAL FLORIDA THIS EVENING.
CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL BEGIN AFTER 12Z THIS
MORNING. BY THE AFTERNOON LATEST GUIDANCE CONSENSUS IS FOR
SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS ACROSS THE PENINSULA AND REGIONAL
WATERS. AS FOR POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSTORMS...FORECAST SOUNDINGS DO
NOT INDICATE SIGNIFICANTLY STEEP LAPSE RATES OR SUFFICIENTLY COOL
MID LEVELS TO SUPPORT DEEP CONVECTION NOR IS THERE ANY DYNAMICS TO
SUPPORT IT EITHER. GIVEN THE UNCERTAINTIES ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
ARE IN THE FORECAST FOR THIS AFTERNOON...BUT CONFIDENCE IS LOW.

FOR TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING...THE GLOBAL MODEL CONSENSUS IS
THAT THE FRONT WILL PASS ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA AND REGIONAL WATERS
THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED
SHOWERS ARE FORECAST WITH THE SCATTERED ACTIVITY FORECAST ACROSS
THE ATLANTIC WATERS AND EASTERN HALF OF THE PENINSULA WITH A
SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY ACROSS THE ATLANTIC WATERS
GENERALLY BEFORE MIDNIGHT.

FOR SATURDAY...THE MODELS INDICATE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE
SOUTHEAST STATES WITH A DRY AND STABLE AIR MASS BUILDING ACROSS
SOUTH FLORIDA BEHIND THE FRONT. THE FRONT WILL LIKELY STALL NEAR
THE FLORIDA STRAITS AND THE NORTHWEST BAHAMAS ISLANDS. LATEST
GUIDANCE INDICATES SHOWERS LARGELY CLEARING THE REGION BY MID MORNING
ALTHOUGH ISOLATED SHOWERS COULD LINGER ACROSS THE ATLANTIC WATERS.

FOR A SUMMARY OF THE TEMPERATURES WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE...THE
GENERAL MODEL CONSENSUS INDICATES COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL BE
SHORT LIVED WITH THE REGIONAL WINDS SHIFTING TO THE NORTHEAST OFF
THE ATLANTIC WATERS BY 12Z SATURDAY. UNDER THIS SCENARIO...THE
LOWS TONIGHT ARE FORECAST TO BE NEAR 50 TO LOWER 50'S ACROSS
GLADES COUNTY...LOW TO MID 50'S NAPLES METRO AREA AND GENERALLY
LOW TO MID 60'S ACROSS THE ATLANTIC METRO AREAS. ON SATURDAY THE
HIGHS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED TO BE IN THE LOW TO MID 70S.
TEMPERATURES WILL REBOUND FAIRLY QUICKLY SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO SHIFT EASTWARD ACROSS THE
SOUTHEAST U.S. AND REGIONAL WINDS BECOME EASTERLY.

RIP CURRENTS...FOR THE GULF COAST BEACHES...A SLIGHT RISK OF RIP
CURRENTS TODAY WILL TRANSITION TO A MORE MODERATE RISK THIS
EVENING AND OVER NIGHT WITH WINDS AND SEAS RAPIDLY BUILDING. AN
ISOLATED RISK OF RIP CURRENTS ACROSS THE ATLANTIC COAST BEACHES
TODAY WILL TRANSITION TO A HIGH RISK TONIGHT INTO EARLY SATURDAY
WITH WINDS AND SEAS RAPIDLY BUILDING AND WILL REMAIN HIGH INTO
MONDAY.

FOR SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...MOISTURE IS FORECAST TO
GRADUALLY RETURN TO THE REGION SUNDAY AND EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH A
SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION ON MONDAY AND
