Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Jacksonville FL
855 PM EDT Sat Jun 27 2020
.UPDATE...
Strong storms over northeast Florida have dispersed, with light
scattered precipitation persisting into the evening. Thunderstorms
developing over inland southeast Georgia along the Altamaha River
will gradually move eastward before breaking up overnight.
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION [813 PM EDT]...
.Short Term.../through Wednesday/...
The region will be under the influence of a ridge of high pressure
at the surface and at 500mb through Sunday. However, short wave
energy is expected to pass through the upper ridge, which along
with diurnal instability and sea breeze interactions will provide
enough instability for activity this afternoon, and again Sunday
afternoon. For this afternoon, activity on the west coast sea
breeze will continue to work its way east across the forecast
area, with outflow boundaries helping to initiate further activity
down stream, which will all end up converging on the east coast
sea breeze of NE FL later this afternoon, where the greatest
potential for storms will exist. A fairly strong short wave passes
through overnight tonight, so can not rule out a few showers
during the night as well.
The surface high will sink to the south on Monday, as a trough of
low pressure develops under an upper trough, from northeast to
southwest across the southeastern US. This troughing will be in
place into Tuesday and Wednesday as well, with waves of energy
passing through the base of the upper trough. Increasing moisture is
expected next week, with convective chances on the rise.
Temperatures will continue above normal through at least Tuesday,
but may be closer to seasonal average on Wednesday due to
anticipated cloud and convective coverage.
.Long Term.../Wednesday night through Saturday/...
Weak surface troughing under a building upper ridge is expected
this period. The main potential for convection will be in the
afternoon and evening hours due to diurnal heating and sea breeze
interactions. Best support for convection this period will be on
Thursday, then, with less upper support the coverage should
average scattered later this period.
Temperatures will trend above normal this period.
.AVIATION...
[Through 00Z Monday]
Lingering showers along the northeastern Florida coast will drift
off to the SE as the evening progresses, with storms developing
over inland southeastern Georgia and then moving eastward towards
the Georgia coastline. Otherwise, VFR conditions are expected to
be prevalent throughout the region with a chance for mist or haze
over inland areas in the early morning.
.Marine...
High pressure will stretch across the region through Sunday. This
high will move to the south southeast Monday, as a trough of low
pressure stretches across the southeastern US. This trough will
be most pronounced through Wednesday then weaken.
Rip Currents: SE GA: Low through Sunday
NE FL: Moderate Today, Low Sunday
