NWS Miami, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 10, 7:39 AM EST, 6 hours 21 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 839 AM EDT Fri Jun 10 2022 .UPDATE... Well we continue to be stuck in a wet and unsettled pattern across South Florida. Abundant moisture remains across the region with the PWAT on the 12z MFL sounding coming in right at 2 inches. 500mb temperatures around -8C will allow for a few strong storms to develop with some gusty downburst winds possible. However, the main impact continues to be flooding due to heavy rainfall with slow moving downpours. The flooding risk is increased due to antecedent conditions along the east coast where areas continue to see abundant rainfall day after day. With saturated grounds, water still on sides of roadways it will not take much rain to cause issues in these areas once again today. A few minor adjustments for the POPs based on latest hi-res timing. && .PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 723 AM EDT Fri Jun 10 2022) AVIATION(12Z TAFS)... L/V wind this morning with a few showers and storms along and off the SW coast. Showers and thunderstorms increase late morning continuing through the afternoon and evening. Periods of MVFR/IFR cigs/vis through the early evening hours. W/SW flow near 10kt will push the majority of thunderstorms towards the east coast terminals, where periods of heavy rain are possible. TEMPOs will likely be needed this afternoon as timing confidence increases. Convection begins to diminish after sunset with winds becoming light and variable tonight. PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 306 AM EDT Fri Jun 10 2022) DISCUSSION... Short term (Today through Saturday): 500mb analysis early this morning identifies the continuation of pronounced mid-level troughing across the eastern United States as ridging continues to remain established across the western United States. Forecast model soundings for our area depict fairly light steering flow aloft which will focus storm development and propagation primarily along areas of mesoscale ascent (sea-breeze and outflow boundary collisions). At the surface, we remain on the periphery of a large and expansive ridge of high pressure that remains situated over the western Atlantic. This will allow for the prevailing southerly to southwesterly winds to persist and the continued advection of ample tropical moisture into the region. Similar to the pattern of the last several days, insolation and diurnal heating will allow for afternoon showers and thunderstorms later today. Storm organization will once again be multicellular in nature and propagation will be along the outflow boundaries on the edges of stratiform induced cold pools. Forecast model soundings for this afternoon depict the potential of 500mb temperatures of -7.5 to -8 C, 3000+ j/kg of CAPE, and slow storm motion (due to the lack of strong winds aloft). This sets up the potential once again for slow moving storms that could bring wind gusts, frequent lighting, and locally heavy rainfall during the afternoon and early evening hours. A few storms could also briefly become strong in nature, particularly when they are oriented or developing along a boundary where ascent is maximized. Flooding continues to be a concern as soils are still saturated and have not had a chance to dry out from the daily afternoon rainfall on top of what fell last weekend with PTC (pre-Alex). Given the slow storm motion and efficient tropical rainfall rates, there is once again the potential for a few locales to receive several inches of additional rainfall. A Flood Watch does remain in effect for Metro and Coastal Miami-Dade and Broward through at least this evening, however it could certainly be extended once more depending on how much rain falls across these vulnerable regions this afternoon. Temperatures are forecast to range from the upper 80s across the east coast metro areas today to the lower 90s across the interior and Gulf coast, however cloud cover and shower and thunderstorm activity may act to keep some locales cooler. Although mid-level troughing begins to lose its grip over the eastern United States by Saturday, the continued pattern of afternoon shower and thunderstorm activity will once again occur like clockwork on Saturday afternoon. Forecast model soundings during this time period depict a similar setup like today with 500mb temperatures remaining near -8 C, 3000+ j/kg of CAPE once again, and the continued lack of brisk mid-level winds that would allow for a faster storm motion. Heavy rainfall and localized flooding remain the most pressing matter with the potential of gusty winds with the strongest thunderstorm activity also being possible. High temperatures outside of convection will be similar to today with temps in the upper 80s to lower 90s across much of the area. Long term (Saturday Night through Thursday): A pattern change is on the horizon as mid-level troughing over the eastern United States gradually gives way to pronounced ridging on Sunday/Monday. Meanwhile changes are also in store at the surface as the large expansive ridge of high pressure over the western Atlantic waters builds into the region, switching prevailing flow to a southeasterly direction and could allow for a plume of Saharan Dust to propagate into the area. The potential presence of Saharan Dust will act to enhance the cap in the boundary layer which will likely limit aerial coverage of showers and thunderstorms across the area. However even with the SAL and suppressive nature of the ridge of high pressure aloft, there is still the potential of a few showers and thunderstorms across the area. If an updraft is able to break through the cap, it will have an untapped and favorable environment, which may allow for the potential of an isolated strong to severe storm during the afternoon hours early next week. Spatial coverage of showers and thunderstorms will be much less than the last several days which will result in a reduction of cloud debris and convective activity across the area. This will allow for warmer temperatures to prevail across the area during this period. MARINE... A light to moderate south-southwesterly wind flow will prevail across area waters through the first part of the weekend. Seas will generally remain at 3 feet or less across the local waters through the early portion of next week as quiet and benign marine conditions are expected outside of any shower and thunderstorms that develop. Winds and waves could be locally higher in and around showers and thunderstorms. BEACHES... A moderate risk of rip currents will continue for the Palm Beaches through at least this evening. HYDRO... With repeated rounds of heavy rainfall each afternoon this week on top of the heavy rainfall that fell in association with the passage of PTC1 over the area last weekend, antecedent conditions remain quite saturated across the area. As water-levels remain high across southeastern Florida bodies of water, heavy rainfall may continue to create flooding concerns as water is not able to properly discharge into the already saturated soils. This is especially true in vulnerable low-lying urban areas where significant rainfall rates may allow for the build-up of a lot of water over a short period of time. The Flood Watch for the coastal and metro areas of Miami-Dade and Broward counties will continue through this evening, and may be extended depending on the aerial coverage of rainfall that falls later this afternoon and evening. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

This hazardous weather outlook is for South Florida. .DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT Rip currents: A moderate risk of rip currents along Palm Beach County beaches through this evening. Thunderstorms: Scattered thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. Some storms may become strong to severe with locally strong winds, lightning, and heavy downpours. Wind: The strongest storms could be capable of producing wind gusts up to 50 mph. Flooding: Torrential rainfall from showers and thunderstorms across saturated South Florida could lead to flooding,especially over the east coast metro. A Flood Watch is in effect for the east coast metro and coastal regions. Waterspouts: Waterspouts will be possible with any showers and storms over local South Florida waters. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms will remain possible every day through the first half of the weekend. The strongest storms may produce gusty winds, heavy rainfall and lightning strikes. Heavy rainfall will continue to be a concern for South Florida due to slow moving showers and thunderstorms. This could lead to some flooding concerns over South Florida, as the grounds are very saturated at this time especially over the east coast. An elevated risk of rip currents will be possible next week at the Atlantic coast beaches. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not anticipated, however individual spotters are encouraged to report high wind and flooding to the National Weather Service forecast office in Miami.
