Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Melbourne FL
335 PM EDT Thu Aug 3 2017

.DISCUSSION...

Current through tonight...As anticipated, the east coast sea breeze
has developed and pressed steadily inland toward I-95 along the
Treasure Coast, while getting a slightly better inland push over
Brevard County, owing to some convection that developed there. The
boundary is pinned close to the coast over central-northern Volusia
County. Convection had been pretty spotty from Brevard southward
along the boundary, while coverage is starting to increase over
the NW counties (mainly near/NW of I-4) over the last hour or so,
owing to differential heating.

As the sea breezes and and outflow moving in from the NW approach
and then interact with each other through late afternoon, expect
coverage to increase, mainly across the northern counties, and
central interior, as indicated by highest POPs. Pretty much
kept the afternoon POPs of the late morning update going into
the pre-first period through sunset. A few lingering showers
and storms anticipated for another hour or two into the evening
across the north-central. Otherwise, clearing skies with mins
in the L-M70s.

Friday... Mid level drying will continue to work northward from
south FL around the Atlantic ridge across the southern half of the
forecast area. PWATs will drop to 1.3 to 1.5 inches across the far
south with low level SE-SSE flow. GFS forecasts a disturbance aloft
to track across the nrn peninsula in the afternoon and with
lingering deeper moisture (PWATs to 1.8 to 2.0 inches) across nrn
sections should see a low chance of showers and storms across nrn
sections by late afternoon, with the highest chances across Volusia
county. Highs will reach the lower 90s near the east coast and the
mid 90s across much of the interior.

Saturday... Low level flow will become southerly on Saturday with SW
flow in the mid levels. Should see sufficient moisture for scattered
showers and storms across interior and nrn sections. The lowest POPs
for Saturday will be along the Treasure coast where the airmass will
be drier and the east coast sea breeze should push inland into the
afternoon with low level SE-SSE flow. Highs again will reach the
lower 90s along the coast and lwr-mid 90s for the interior.

Sunday...Low level SE flow will become ESE into the afternoon with
rain chances slightly lower than Saturday espec across nrn areas.
POPs are expected from 30-40 percent for the interior and lower from
20-30 percent along the coast. Highs around 90 along the coast and
in the lower to mid 90s for the interior.

Monday-Thursday...The low level ridge will remain north of the area
much of the upcoming week with a fairly strong mid level ridge east
of the state. This will promote ESE to SE low level flow with
isolated to scattered showers and a few storms moving onshore from
the Atlantic mainly south of the Cape late at night and diurnal
scattered showers/storms moving WNW during the daytime hours with
afternoon heating. Moisture levels will support POPs near 30 percent
across the coastal zones to around 40 percent across the interior
with lower rain chances along the beaches with the onshore southeast
flow. Highs will be at or just a degree or two above normal, near
90/lower 90s for the east coast to lower to mid 90s for the
interior. Lows in the mid to upper 70s.

&&

.AVIATION...Spotty SHRA/TS along the MLB-SUA corridor will weaken by
22Z as the east coast sea breeze pushes inland and leaves activity
behind. Expect a good chance for TS 20Z-24Z at all the interior and
north aerodromes as outflow boundary lined up near the I-4 corridor
interacts with the approaching Atlantic sea breeze gradually coming
into the area from the east. IMC VSBYs with G30-40KT expected with
the more intense TS cells.

&&

.MARINE...Tonight-Friday...S/SSE winds around the Atlc ridge will
average 10-13KT with seas 2FT near shore and 2-3FT offshore and
south. Because of suppression from the mid level ridge, shower and
storm coverage across the Atlantic should be low with a chance of
storms affecting the Volusia near shore waters by late afternoon/
early evening.

Saturday-Tuesday...Winds will be from the southeast to 10-15KT with
the Atlantic surface high northeast of the waters. Seas 2-3FT near
shore and 3-4FT offshore. Isolated showers and storms are expected.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

.THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms will develop
across the area this afternoon, with storms moving rather quick
toward the east to northeast and offshore around 25 to 30 mph.
Greatest coverage of convection is expected from Lake County
eastward through the I-4 corridor and toward Volusia and northern
Brevard counties. Slightly drier and more stable air working its
way into the Treasure Coast and Lake Okeechobee region will lead
to lower storm coverage across this area.

The main storm hazards from any stronger storms will be frequent
lightning strikes and wind gusts between 40 and 50 mph. Remember,
lightning can strike well outside the audible range of thunder.
Cease outdoor activities and move indoors immediately if thunder
is heard.

.RIP CURRENT IMPACT...
Long period northeast swells will produce a moderate rip current
threat along area beaches. The threat level will be greatest
through 3:00 PM due to tidal effects. Check with ocean rescue
personnel about hazards when arriving at the beach. Only swim near
a lifeguard and never swim alone.

.MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected this
afternoon and evening. Storm motion will be toward the east to
northeast around 25 to 30 mph. Wind gusts to around 35 knots will
be possible with a few of the storms especially over inland
lakes, as well as the intracoastal and nearshore Atlantic waters
as the storms move offshore.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
Scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms with a potential for
heavy rainfall are expected across east central Florida for the
next several days. Minor flooding of roadways and poor drainage
areas is possible along with a few stronger storms producing
frequent lightning strikes and strong gusty winds. East to
southeast winds will push a small swell into the east Florida
coast, which will enhance the rip current threat.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation will not be needed today.
