.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 243 PM EDT Thu Jun 25 2026

Current-Tonight... A stationary front is analyzed over portions of
north Florida while a broad ridge axis remains settled over the
Florida peninsula. Light winds have allowed the east coast sea
breeze to develop from the Cape southward early this afternoon,
and some convection has already started to bubble up on the east
side of Lake Okeechobee as boundary interactions occur. Additional
development of scattered showers and storms is anticipated
across much of the area through the remainder of the afternoon
and evening. In addition to sufficient surface instability,
modeled pulses of shortwave energy aloft may enhance the potential
for strong storm development. Tall updrafts which interact with
dry air aloft (DCAPE ~ 800-1,200 J/Kg) will have the potential for
isolated strong downbursts producing wind gusts around 55 mph.
500mb temperatures analyzed around -8C may become locally cooler
in the presence of any passing shortwave energy, and small hail
will also be possible with strong convection today. Light steering
flow should push convection towards the nort-northeast, although
direction may become variable at times around boundary
interactions. Slow moving storms will promote the potential for
locally heavy rainfall through this evening. Activity gradually
dwindles beyond sunset with mostly dry conditions then forecast
overnight. Low temperatures fall into the low to mid 70s.

Friday-Sunday... High pressure aloft builds across the southeast
U.S. through late this weekend. At the surface, a weak ridge axis
remains draped across the Florida peninsula, extending westward from
the Atlantic high. A typical summertime pattern of scattered
afternoon showers and storms (~40-60%) is forecast Friday and
Saturday. Drier conditions are currently forecast on Sunday with rain
chances ranging 20-40%, however model disagreement in moisture
may lead to some fluctuation in Sunday's PoPs over the next few
forecast cycles. Model sounding profiles suggests a modest layer
of dry air persisting in the low to mid levels through the period,
continuing the potential for localized thunderstorm downbursts
within stronger storms. Stronger storms which develop, will be
capable of wind gusts 40-50 mph and frequent lightning strikes.
Light steering flow may lead to localized heavy rainfall within
slow moving or stationary storms.

Hot, above normal, temperatures persist late this week and into
early next week. Highs mostly range the low to mid 90s along the
coast with mid 90s across the interior. Localized areas north and
west of the I-4 region may even touch the upper 90s this weekend
with moderate probabilities (40-50%) of meeting or exceeding 97F.
Peak heat index values mostly range 102-107F, and a Moderate to
Major HeatRisk will impact those without adequate cooling or
hydration.

Monday-Wednesday... The local synoptic pattern shifts Monday into
midweek as a mid level trough rounds the eastern side of high
pressure anchored over the eastern U.S. Deep moisture builds as a
surface front sags near or across central Florida. This should
result in increasing rain chances (50-80%) through the extended
forecast period. Models indicate light offshore flow persisting
through the low and mid levels Monday, and a warm, moist airmass may
support periods of locally heavy rainfall as the sea breeze slowly
moves inland against the prevailing flow. An east-northeast shift in
winds into mid week will allow for an easier inland progression
of the east coast sea breeze, but a heavy rainfall threat may
still exist where storms become stationary along boundary
collisions with greatest focus towards the interior. Very hot and
humid on Monday with peak heat index values widely exceeding 104F.
A few degrees "cooler" Tuesday and Wednesday, but still remaining
above normal in the low to mid 90s.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 243 PM EDT Thu Jun 25 2026

A broad axis of high pressure is maintained over the local Atlantic
waters through the weekend. Southerly winds remain 10 kts or less
early each day before turning south-southeast around 10-15 kts each
afternoon and evening as the east coast sea breeze develops. Seas of
1-2 ft persist into early next week, occasionally building to 3 ft
far offshore. Isolated to scattered showers and storms are forecast
over the local Atlantic waters again this afternoon and evening,
and a few strong storms will be capable of wind gusts 34 kts or
greater. Coverage of showers and storms decreases over the waters
late week. However, isolated to scattered convection may be
possible over the Gulf Stream during the nighttime hours.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFs)
Issued at 151 PM EDT Thu Jun 25 2026

VFR conditions are expected outside of showers/storms with the
potential for a few strong to marginally severe storms. Generally,
SSW winds at the inland TAFs and SSE winds at the coastal TAFs at
5-10kts are forecast to become light and variable overnight. TAFs
begin with VCTS at 18Z/19Z with TEMPO TSRA this aftn/eve before
drying out overnight. VCTS and TEMPO TSRA returns FRI after 18Z/19Z.
