* WHERE...South Walton and Coastal Bay Counties.

* WHEN...For the High Surf Advisory, until 4 AM CDT Wednesday. 
  For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from 10 PM this evening to 1

* IMPACTS...Flooding of lots, parks, and roads with only 
  isolated road closures expected. Dangerous swimming and 
  surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents 
  can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper 
  water.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Southwest breezes will increase over the
  northeast Gulf late tonight and Tuesday, lasting into Wednesday
  morning, as the remnants of Ida pass by to the north. This will
  kick up waves and surf. Minor coastal flooding is expected
  around the time of high tide tonight, as the waves push water
  onshore.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be
closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.

Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to
dangerous surf conditions.

Swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax and
float. Don't swim against the current. If able, swim in a
direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the
shore and call or wave for help.

What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high surf advisory went out at Aug 27, 9:26 AM CDT, 4 hours 13 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 27, 9:26 AM CDT, 4 hours 13 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tallahassee FL
1026 AM EDT Fri Aug 27 2021

.UPDATE...

We're anticipating a relatively quiet day today until the Atlantic
sea breeze moves in from the east. The sea breeze will primarily
impact our easternmost counties while decreasing in coverage as it
moves westward across the region later this afternoon. Showers
and isolated thunderstorms are expected before sunset and winding
down thereafter. No major updates are required this morning, the
forecast appears to be on track.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION [644 AM EDT]...

.NEAR TERM [Through Tonight]...

High pressure centered off the coast of the Carolinas will continue
to dominate today into tonight. This will result in east to
southeast flow across the tri-state area today and as the east coast
seabreeze develops, will help to push showers and thunderstorms into
the eastern portion of the CWA this afternoon. The convection will
continue to push west into the evening and then the focus will shift
back to the marine area.

Tropical Storm Ida will track northwest today and into the Gulf of
Mexico tonight into Saturday. The center of the system is forecast
to remain west of the region as the aforementioned high pressure
dominates across the area. In the near term, the main impacts from
the system will be an increase in wave heights and the swell
beginning tonight.

.SHORT TERM [Saturday Through Sunday]...

Tropical Storm Ida, which is currently located south of western
Cuba, will be moving northwestward across the south central Gulf
of Mexico Saturday before making its approach to the north central
Gulf late on Sunday. A rather strong mid to upper level ridge is
expected to continue to remain in place across the southern
Apalachians and the southeast through the weekend, which will
impose strong easterly to southeasterly flow across the region.
This ridge is expected to be the main steering currently for Ida
as it makes its trek through the Gulf over the next several days.
As Ida moves closer to the region, deep tropical moisture is
expected to advect into the region from the south and east, which
will increase PW values across the area to well over 2 inches.

With increased moisture over the region, high PoPs are forecast
for both Saturday and Sunday. With a moderately strong surface
high pressure to the north, and a likely hurricane to the south
and east through the weekend, there will likely be a strong
pressure gradient over the region. This will likely lead to strong
easterly to southeasterly surface winds across the region.
Embedded in this easterly flow will likely be showers and
thunderstorms that will quickly move from east to west across the
area. Overall, the moisture rich environment over the region will
lead to the potential for locally heavy rainfall with some storms.

The most significant impact expected for the region at this time
will be beach and marine hazards. A high risk for rip currents is
expected along the beaches starting Saturday as surf builds, and
long-period swells start to arrive from Ida. High temperatures
both days are expected to be in the low 90s, with lows Saturday
night falling into the mid 70s.

.LONG TERM [Sunday Night Through Friday]...

As Ida eventually makes landfall somewhere on the north central
Gulf coast on Sunday, the moisture it advects into the region will
continue to hang around through at least Wednesday until an upper
level trough is expected to propagate into the southeast by
Thursday morning. This upper level trough will bring much drier
air aloft into the region, effectively lowering PoP chances. Prior
to this happening though, Ida is expected to move to our north and
eventually east across the southern Tennessee valley. At the same
time, the surface high pressure over the southern Apalachians is
expected to move south and east towards the east coast of Florida.
At this time, current model guidance is suggesting that this may
create a slight convergence zone across portions of the Florida
Panhandle on Tuesday and across the Big Bend on Wednesday. The
majority of the rainfall expected from Ida will likely fall on
these two days as this quasi-stationary boundary is expected to
develop across the region. With the increased cloud cover,
high temperatures will be slightly cooler, with upper 80s expected
for highs Monday through Wednesday, but by Thursday low 90s are
likely to return.

.AVIATION...
[Through 12Z Saturday]

Lower clouds have pushed into TLH, VLD, and ABY this morning and
expect them to move west into DHN over the next hour or two. Low
clouds will be possible again Saturday morning with the best
chances at VLD. TSRA is expected this afternoon across the TAF
sites, generally moving from east to west.

.MARINE...

Breezy east to southeast winds near 15 knots will continue to
result in cautionary conditions through Friday night. As Tropical
Storm Ida strengthens and moves toward the north central Gulf
Coast this weekend, winds and seas will increase to advisory
levels. Sustained winds will be near 20 to 25 knots well offshore
in the western zones along with gusts in the outer bands up to
tropical storm force. Seas will build to 6-10 feet over the
weekend, possibly up to 14 feet well offshore in the western
areas. Advisory-level conditions will continue through at least
Monday with winds and waves slowly subsiding heading into next
week.

.FIRE WEATHER...

Tropical Storm Ida will strengthen and move into the Gulf of Mexico
this weekend, however the bulk of the impacts will remain west of
the region. Winds will generally be around 5-10 mph with RH values
generally in the 50-60 percent range. Showers and thunderstorms are
expected each day. High dispersion values are possible across the Big
Bend, southeast Alabama and southwest Georgia on Saturday.

.HYDROLOGY...

The remaining couple of river points in flood will continue to fall
through the weekend. As mentioned above, increased moisture across
the region will lead to increased PoP chances, especially as Ida
moves closer to the region. While heaviest rainfall totals will
remain well west of the region, there are portions of the Florida
Panhandle that could see 2-4 inches with locally heavier amounts
through Wednesday. With portions of the Panhandle still sensitive
from heavy rains from Fred just a couple weeks ago, it will not
take much to cause flash flooding in these areas if the scenario
mentioned above develops, and a quasi-stationary boundary causes
training of showers and thunderstorms across these areas. As the
forecast becomes more refined, rainfall totals will also become
more honed in over the coming days. Therefore, please keep up with
the latest forecasts of Ida and any changes in future rainfall
forecasts.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not requested. However, spotters are always
encouraged to safely report significant weather conditions when they
occur (while following all local, state, and CDC guidelines) by
calling the office or tweeting us @NWSTallahassee.
