AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL 124 PM EDT THU JUN 30 2005 .DISCUSSION...HIGH PRESSURE WAS OVER THE NORTHERN BAHAMASS WATERS AND EXTENDED BACK WEST INTO SOUTH FLORIDA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...AS THE EAST COAST AND WEST COAST SEA BREEZES WERE DEVELOPING ALONG BOTH COASTS. THE HIGH SHOULD CONTINUE TO MOVE SLOWLY SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON WHICH WILL KEEP THE STEERING FLOW MAINLY FROM THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST OVER THE AREA ALLOWING FOR THE WEST COAST SEA BREEZE TO MOVE ACROSS THE CWA...AND KEEP THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE OVER THE EAST COAST METRO AREAS. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD ALSO DEVELOP ALONG THE SEA BREEZES THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE CWA WITH THE HIGHEST POPS OVER THE EAST COAST METRO AREAS. THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD COME TO AN END THIS EVENING OR EARLY TONIGHT OVER MOST OF THE CWA...AS THE HEATING OF THE DAY IS LOST. HOWEVER...THE WEST COAST COULD SEE A FEW SHOWERS OVERNIGHT DUE TO THE WEST SOUTHWEST STEERING FLOW ALLOWING FOR SOME OF THE ACTIVITY IN THE GULF WATERS TO MOVE ONSHORE. SO PLAN ON KEEPING A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS ALONG THE WEST COAST AREAS TONIGHT. THE HIGH WILL MOVE INTO THE FLORIDA STRAITS ON FRIDAY BEFORE BECOMING STATIONARY FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY...AS AN UPPER LEVEL LOW JUST WEST OF NEW ORLEANS MOVES EAST ACROSS NORTH FLORIDA ALONG THE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE. THIS WILL KEEP MOST OF THE DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE TO OUR NORTH...BUT SOME TROPICAL MOISTURE WILL RETURN TO THE CWA FROM THE CARIBBEAN SEA DUE TO THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST STEERING FLOW. WITH THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST STEERING FLOW...THE HIGHEST POPS WILL BE ALONG THE EAST COAST METRO AREAS OF SOUTH FLORIDA EACH DAY. ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DO DEVELOP WILL HAVE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL...AS THE PRECIP WATER (PWAT) WILL INCREASE AGAIN ABOVE 2 INCHES. THEREFORE...THERE COULD BE SOME LOW LYING/PRONE FLOODING ACROSS THE EAST COAST METRO AREAS OF SOUTH FLORIDA ON FRIDAY AND AGAIN ON SATURDAY...DUE TO THE SATURATED GROUNDS AND THE PWAT ABOVE 2 INCHES. .EXTENDED FORECAST... THE HIGH WILL SLOWLY MOVE BACK INTO THE CWA ON SUNDAY FROM THE FLORIDA STRAITS ALLOWING THE WINDS TO BECOME SOUTHERLY ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA. A TROPICAL WAVE OVER THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN SEA WILL ALSO MOVE WEST TO NORTHWEST INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF OF MEXICO ON SUNDAY WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF THE NORTHERN PART OF THE WAVE MOVING THROUGH SOUTH FLORIDA LATE SUNDAY OR SUNDAY NIGHT KEEPING THE PWAT ABOVE 2 INCHES ACROSS THE AREA. SO PLAN INCREASING THE POPS TO LIKELY OVER THE NORTHERN AREAS OF THE CWA AND HIGH IN CHANCE OVER REST OF THE CWA ON SUNDAY...AND THEN CHANCE CAT EAST COAST AREAS AND SLIGHT CHANCE ELSEWHERE SUNDAY NIGHT. THE TROPICAL WAVE WILL THEN BE WEST OF SOUTH FLORIDA ON FOUR OF JULY...AS THE HIGH REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY THROUGH MOST OF NEXT WEEK. SO THE MAIN PLAYERS WILL BE THE SEA BREEZES OVER THE CWA WITH THE HIGHEST POPS OVER THE INTERIOR AREAS EACH DAY. && .MARINE...THE WINDS WILL BE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY BEFORE SWINGING TO A SOUTHERLY DIRECTION ON SUNDAY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE WIND SPEEDS WILL ALSO REMAIN BELOW 10 KNOTS THROUGH THE FOUR OF JULY WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. THEREFORE...THE SEAS WILL REMAIN BELOW 2 FEET EXCEPT IN ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DO DEVELOP OVER THE WATERS. && .FIRE WEATHER...NO PROBLEMS AS THE RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL REMAIN WELL ABOVE CRITICAL VALUES. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
