.UPDATE...
The 12Z sounding this morning showed moist conditions across the
region, with precipitable water values around 1.9 inches. Light
westerly flow will continue, with the Gulf coast sea breeze being
dominant. The Gulf coast sea breeze was already beginning to move
inland, with isolated showers developing along it. A weak area of
low pressure was located near the GA/SC coast, with a surface
trough just north of southeast Georgia. Another weak boundary was
located across northeast Florida from convection yesterday
evening. Weak +PVA was over northeast Florida, and this will
drift east through the day, enhancing convection as it moves
across the region. Scattered to numerous showers and storms will
develop late this morning across the Suwanee Valley and then push
eastward towards the Atlantic coast in the afternoon. A weak east
coast breeze is forecast to develop and move towards I-95,
concentrating convection across the eastern portion of the region.
Convection will also concentrate near the surface boundary across
southeast Georgia late in the day, and showers/storms continue
into the overnight hours across southeast Georgia. The main update
this morning was to lower PoPs for the morning hours due to a
slightly later start. Otherwise, it will be a seasonably warm day,
with highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s.

.AVIATION...
Light west winds this morning will become south to southeasterly
for the east coast TAF sites as the east coast sea breeze moves
inland. Showers and storms will move inland from the Gulf coast
and impact KGNV in the late morning to early afternoon and then
move towards the east coast in the mid to late afternoon and early
evening. MVFR/IFR conditions are expected in/around storms.
