Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Miami FL
253 AM EST Sun Dec 25 2016

...Merry Christmas from National Weather Service in Miami Florida...
...High Risk Of Rip Currents East Coast Beaches of South Florida...

.DISCUSSION...
High pressure will strengthen this Christmas Day into tonight
over the western Atlantic waters. This will allow for the pressure
gradient to tighten over South Florida, and allow for the
easterly winds to become breezy this afternoon into tonight
especially over the east coast metro areas. There could also be a
quick shower or two that could work into the east coast metro
areas from the Atlantic waters on the easterly wind flow.
Therefore, a slight chance of a light shower will be in the
forecast for the east coast metro areas this Christmas Day into
tonight. Rest of South Florida should remain dry this Christmas
day into tonight.

The high will slowly weaken while remaining nearly stationary
over the Western Atlantic Waters Monday into Tuesday, as a front
remains nearly stationary over the Tennessee Valley. This will
keep the easterly winds ongoing over South Florida, but allow for
the wind speeds to relax. There could still be a few light
showers that do work into the east coast metro areas of South
Florida early this week from the Atlantic waters. Therefore, most
of South Florida will remain dry early this week with only a
slight chance of showers for the east coast metro areas.

EXTENDED FORECAST...
The high will dissipate late this week over the western Atlantic
waters, low pressure develops along the cold front over the
Tennessee valley and moves northeast. This will allow for the cold
front to move southward and through South Florida late Thursday
night into Friday morning.

The front will pass through South Florida mainly dry, due to
limited moisture over the area. However, there could still be a
shower or two ahead of the front on Thursday mainly over the
eastern areas of South Florida.

Behind the front, the winds will be from the northerly direction
which will allow for the cooler air to work into South Florida for
Friday into early this weekend. At this time, the long range
models are showing highs to warm up only into the 70s Friday and
Saturday with lows in the 40 to 50s except 60s for the east coast
metro areas Friday night.

The cooler weather will not last long, as the winds will become
easterly late this weekend. This in turn will bring back the above
normal temperatures to South Florida for this time of year for the
second have of next weekend.

&&

.MARINE...
The winds will remain easterly today into Monday over all of
South Florida waters. The wind speeds over the Atlantic waters
will be 15 to 20 knots today before increasing to around 20 knots
tonight into Monday, while rest of South Florida waters will be
15 to 20 knots. This will allow for the Atlantic seas to build to
6 feet tonight into Monday, while the Gulf waters remain below 6
feet. Therefore, an SCEC conditions will be up for all South
Florida waters today, before SCA conditions develop for the
Atlantic waters tonight into Monday for the winds.

&&

.BEACH FORECAST...
There is a High Risk of Rip Currents for the east coast beaches of
South Florida today through Monday night, as the easterly winds
will be around 15 mph increasing to 15 to 20 mph on Monday.
