.UPDATE...

Moisture levels continue to gradually increase, per the morning
sounding at JAX. There is, however, still a pocket of dry air
hanging on in the mid levels, due to subsidence associated with
the persistent mid level ridge over the area. This will help to
keep convective activity somewhat limited along and east of the
I-95 corridor today but a few showers/storms will still be
possible along the coast thanks to increased low level moisture
convergence in association with an inverted trough offshore,
which is a northward extension of a tropical disturbance in the
Bahamas.

So we will continue with a low chance of rain along and east of
the I-95 corridor and go with a little better chance farther
inland this afternoon as scattered storms develop along the
westward moving seabreeze. Storms will fade out across the inland
areas this evening due to loss of heating. However, there will be
a resurgence of scattered showers and storms across the coastal
waters which will spread towards the coast as early as this
evening as the tropical wave moves north northwest along the
southern Florida peninsula.

&&

.AVIATION...

Mainly VFR conditions today. Scattered showers and storms
expected this afternoon as the seabreezes push inland. Low chance
for storms along and east of the I-95 corridor. Better chance for
storms west of I-95.

&&

.MARINE...

High pressure will be north of the waters this week, providing a
persistent onshore flow. Winds will increase on Tuesday as a
tropical wave crosses the Fl Peninsula. Headlines will likely be
needed.

Rip Currents: Moderate risk today at the Ne Fl beaches and all
beaches Tuesday due to a persistent long period swell and an
onshore flow.
