Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tallahassee FL 408 PM EDT Thu Aug 4 2022 .NEAR TERM [Through Friday]... Showers and thunderstorms have picked up this afternoon, primarily across northern FL. Mesoanalyst shows the DCAPE gradient over SW GA and the Big Bend of about 700 to 1100 J/kg, with slightly lower amounts being observed east of the gradient. PWATs over the CWA are estimated around 1.70 to 2.0 inches, while shear is very low. A few strong storms could be possible, but should remain below criteria. Heavy rain and gusty winds will be the primary threats for this afternoon and into the early evening. Then tonight, skies clear, with overnight lows falling into the low to mid 70s. Tomorrow the forecast is on repeat, we'll see fair weather cumulus develop in the morning. Showers and storms should start off along the coast before spreading inland along the various sea breezes and outflow boundaries. High temps will be in the low to mid 90s. .SHORT TERM [Friday Night Through Saturday Night]... Throughout the short term we'll have ridging sliding off to the west as an approaching easterly wave moves in from the east. We'll have enhanced rain chances offshore and along the Gulf Coast. Otherwise, expect highs generally in the low to mid 90s with overnight lows generally in the low to mid 70s. .LONG TERM [Sunday Through Thursday]... As the aforementioned easterly wave makes its way across our Gulf waters Sunday through Tuesday we can expect enhanced rain chances across the region as we'll be placed on the eastern side of the wave, which is collocated with upper level support for rising motion. After Tuesday rain chances decrease a little and we're yet again placed on the southerly flow side of the next ridge, thus inducing the routine summertime pattern. Expect daytime highs to generally be in the low 90s with overnight lows in the mid 70s. && .AVIATION... [Through 18Z Friday] Fair weather cumulus can be observed across much of the region, with a few showers and thunderstorms developing along the seabreeze. VFR conditions are expected to prevail outside of showers and thunderstorms which may reduce ceilings and visibility briefly. Precip chances decrease around sunset and with dry conditions expected for the overnight. && .MARINE... Showers and thunderstorms are expected each day across the marine area with chances increasing for the weekend into next week as an upper level disturbances moves from the Atlantic into the Gulf of Mexico. Winds will mainly be east to southeast with winds of 5-10kts increasing to 10-15kts on Sunday. Similarly, seas of 1-2 feet will increase to 2-3 feet late in the weekend into early next week. && .FIRE WEATHER... The main fire weather concern will areas of low dispersion today and tomorrow. Daily showers and thunderstorms will be possible, otherwise dry, although humid conditions, are expected. && .HYDROLOGY... No areal or river flooding is expected for the next 7 days.
