What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this coastal flood statement went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Miami, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this coastal flood statement went out at Aug 29, 8:12 AM EDT, 2 hours 49 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 29, 8:12 AM EDT, 2 hours 49 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Miami FL
812 AM EDT Thu Aug 29 2019

.AVIATION...
Relatively light northeasterly steering flow should allow for the
development of Atlantic and Gulf sea breezes this afternoon.
Expect convection to initiate along these boundaries and generally
progress towards the SSW. Storm coverage should be greatest over
the interior and southern portions of S FL this afternoon and
progressively increase in coverage over the Atlantic and Gulf
Coasts as boundary collisions occur. MVFR conditions are possible
with convection today and TEMPOS for CIGS/VIS may be needed for
east coast sites later this afternoon.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 342 AM EDT Thu Aug 29 2019/

..HEAVY RAINFALL POSSIBLE ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA TODAY INTO FRIDAY...
..MONITORING HURRICANE DORIAN FOR THIS WEEKEND...

DISCUSSION...
Heavy rainfall is possible today into Friday across South Florida
with a trough of low pressure moving through the region from the
Atlantic waters. Then the focus turns to Hurricane Dorian as it
moves towards the Florida Peninsula this Labor Day Weekend.

TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
High pressure will build into the Florida Peninsula from the
Western Atlantic waters north of the area today into Friday, as a
low level trough moves west across South Florida from the Western
Atlantic waters. This will lead to a light easterly wind flow
over South Florida along with PWAT values around 2.1 to 2.3 inches
which is around the 90th percentile for this time of year.
Therefore, scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms will
develop along the east and west coast sea breezes each day and
push slowly inland with possible heavy rainfall. There is more
information in the hydro section below on the heavy rainfall
potential over South Florida for today into Friday.

There is also an mid to upper level low over the Bahamas that will
be moving westward and across South Florida on Friday. This will
allow for the 500MB temperatures to cool down to -6 to -7C.
Therefore, some of the storms on Friday could become strong with
gusty winds and frequent lightning strikes.

LABOR DAY WEEKEND...
As for the upcoming Labor Day Weekend, the main concern will be
continuing to monitor Hurricane Dorian. The National Hurricane
Center is continuing to forecast Dorian to move to the northwest
late this week before moving west northwest this weekend. This
would put this system in the northwestern Bahamas or near the east
coast of Florida sometime this weekend. It is still too soon to
know about what the details of the potential impacts to South
Florida may be. It's important not to focus on the exact details
of the forecast track owing to uncertainty in the evolution of
this system and the potential for impacts to extend well away
from its center. Residents and visitors of South Florida should
continue to monitor the forecast as the exact details become
clearer in the days going forward. This is also a good reminder to
make sure that your hurricane plan and supply kits are in order
as we head into the peak of the Hurricane Season.

EXTENDED FORECAST...
The extended forecast will also depend on the location and
strength of Hurricane Dorian. At this time, it looks like South
Florida could be in an southerly wind flow keeping the deep
tropical moisture in place. Therefore, will keep scattered showers
and thunderstorms in place for the middle to end of next week but
this can change depending on how the strength and location of
Hurricane Dorian.

MARINE...
The winds will be mainly from the easterly direction today through
Friday with speeds of 15 knots or less. There will also be a small
northeast swell of 2 feet or less affecting the Atlantic waters of
Palm Beach County through Friday. This will allow for the seas to
be 2 to 4 feet in the Palm Beach Atlantic waters with rest of the
Atlantic waters at 2 to 3 feet. The Gulf waters will also remain
at 2 feet or less through Friday.

The marine forecast for this Labor Day weekend will all depend on
the strength and position of Hurricane Dorian. All boaters need
to stay informed with the latest forecast from the National
Weather Service on Hurricane Dorian.

BEACH FORECAST...
The threat of rip currents will continue to increase across the
east coast beaches today into the Labor Day weekend, due to the
small northeast swells through Friday, increasing onshore flow,
along with the approach of Hurricane Dorian for the Labor Day
Weekend.

There will also be a new moon late this week into early Labor Day
Weekend. This will allow for the tide to run about 0.5 to 1 inch
above the predicted levels. These levels along with the small
northeast swells will lead to some minor coastal flooding along
the beaches of South Florida especially along the beaches of Palm
Beach County during the high tide cycles.

HYDROLOGY...
With the ground somewhat saturated from the earlier week of shower
and thunderstorms over South Florida and additional rainfall
amounts of 1 to 3 inches possible across the area today into
Friday, there could be some minor street and low lying flooding
across the metro areas of South Florida with any showers and
thunderstorms that do develop. WPC has also put South Florida in a
Marginal risk of flooding for today and again on Friday.

...High Risk of Rip Currents At Palm Beaches Today...
...Thunderstorms Expected Across South Florida This Afternoon...

This hazardous weather outlook is for South Florida.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

Rip currents: A northeast long-period swell from Tropical Depression
Erin will lead to a High Risk of Rip Currents along the Palm Beaches
today. A moderate risk of rip currents is forecast for the Miami-
Dade and Broward beaches.

Coastal Flooding: Minor coastal flooding will be possible along the
east coast beaches at high tide this evening due to the new moon and
increased northeast swell.

Thunderstorms: Scattered to widespread thunderstorms are expected
across South Florida this afternoon, with the greatest coverage over
the interior. The primary hazards will be heavy rainfall, gusty
winds, and lightning.

Waterspouts: Isolated waterspouts are possible across all South
Florida waters.

Flooding: Heavy rainfall will be possible with showers and
thunderstorms today. Slow moving storms may lead to the threat for
ponding of water along streets and in low lying areas. This threat
will be highest across the urban areas this afternoon.

Temperatures: Heat indices will climb into the 105 to 108 degree
range this afternoon. Please use caution if working outdoors.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

Scattered to locally numerous storms are expected each day through
the remainder of the week across South Florida. The main hazards
will be lightning, locally heavy rainfall, and gusty winds.

A long-period northeasterly swell moving through the local Atlantic
waters will bring an increased rip current risk to the east coast.

The New Moon and increased swell will continue to bring elevated
tidal levels to the East Coast beaches into this weekend. Minor
coastal flooding will be possible at high tides.

There is an increased chance for flooding Friday and potentially
Saturday due to widespread showers and thunderstorms across the area.

Hurricane Dorian may potentially approach and affect the Florida
Peninsula later in the holiday weekend. It is still too soon to know
the finer details of the potential impacts to South Florida. Please
continue to monitor the progress of Dorian through the week. Now is a
good time to make sure your household hurricane plan is in order.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Widespread spotter activation is not anticipated, however individual
