Area forecast discussion, Jun 4, 2:35 PM EDT, 34 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Jacksonville FL
235 PM EDT Tue Jun 4 2019

.NEAR TERM.../thru Wednesday/...
Upper ridge continues across southeastern U.S., with a weak
shortwave moving ESE across GA/SC this afternoon and Tonight.
Surface trough extends near FL/GA border with deeper convection
and isolated showers S of trough. Sea breezes are moving well
inland...with faster westward movement of east coast sea breeze
further S where low-level winds are weaker and more southerly.
Hi-res model guidance suggests main convective threat over
eastern GA counties with a minimum in precipitation coverage over
north- central FL... somewhat opposite of what radar trends have
been showing. Will go with an evolution with widely scattered
showers/t-storms along the boundaries as seen on satellite...with
greater coverage developing interior areas as sea breezes come
together and merge with surface trough through 00z. Gudance does
suggest convection may hang around through at least 06z...so will
be fairly slow to diminish precipitation coverage through the
evening. Environment is favorable for cold downdrafts and 40-60mph
downburst winds from more intense cells that develop. Best chance
for strong/isolated severe will be along and just E of east coast
sea breeze where dew points (and thus instability) will be higher
and deep layer shear a bit stronger...30-35 kts. Low temperature
forecast Tonight is supported by latest consensus guidance.

For Wednesday...Upper ridge is maintained over the area...with
another possible short wave moving across SC/GA...could again see
scattered afternoon showers/t-storms...with greater coverage se
GA compared to ne FL. Consensus guidance supports high
temperatures in the upper 80s coast...lower 90s I-95 corridor...
mid 90s further inland.

.SHORT TERM.../Wednesday Night thru Thursday night/...
Upper ridge continues over the area Thursday as upper level system
moves over Southern Plains...then begins to break down Thursday
night as upper-level system moves eastward toward the western Gulf
Coast region. Expecting scattered sea breeze showers/t-storms
with greatest coverage during the afternoon...but continuing thru
the evening. Temperatures will remain a little above normal.

.LONG TERM.../Friday thru Monday/...
Pattern changes during this period as upper system moves ENE
across Gulf Coast and TN Valley regions through the weekend...
becoming more of an open upper trough moving eastward across the
Southeastern U.S. late Sunday and Monday. This should lead to a
period of not-as-hot temperatures and increased rain chances.
Model blend suggests 80-90 POP by Sun/Mon, but uncertainty of
pattern evolution leads me to reduce that some to the 50-60
percent range. Near or slightly above normal temperatures are
expected during this period.

&&

.AVIATION...
Scattered showers and storms were developing across northeast
Florida early this afternoon south of a frontal boundary near the
FL/GA border. Showers and storms will impact many of the TAF sites
this afternoon into the early evening, with restrictions likely.
Gusty winds with wind shifts are expected due to outflow
boundaries from storms. The overall wind flow will be out of the
southeast at 10-15 knots with higher gusts at KSGJ and KSSI.

&&

.MARINE...High pressure will remain east of the waters, while a
weak surface trough remains over southern GA. The result will be
light to moderate south to southwest flow and low seas through
the week.

Rip Currents: Low risk Wed se GA, moderate risk ne FL.
