.UPDATE...
Elevated moisture levels over the region today with PWATs of about
1.95 inches which is about 120% of normal. This combined with a weak
coastal trough has supported scattered shower activity oriented in a
northwest to southeast broken line from central Glynn county to coastal
northern St Johns county. So far, have not seen any thunder yet but
it's been very close to an isolated lightning strike. Have continued
to show the line of showers and a thunderstorm in a morning update
and increase the POPs a bit. There have been brief upticks in
the rain rate (4-5 in/hour) in some isolated locations within
the band, with one area in Glynn county that probably picked up
3-4 inches just in about 1 to 1.5 hours so flood advisory was
issued. For the rest of the day, the area of showers and thunderstorms
will shift further inland. Not much change to the afternoon forecast.
Little change to the max temps today, but certainly possible we
could be a couple of degrees below the forecast highs if the
showers and thunderstorms over-perform.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Main Highlights This Period:

- Isolated to widely scattered showers along the I-95 corridor  this
morning shift inland this afternoon, with a few  thunderstorms
possible along the I-75 corridor late this  afternoon.

- Moderate rip current risk continues at all area beaches as breezy
onshore winds develop this afternoon.

Overnight surface analysis depicts a weak inverted surface trough
extending across the east central and northeast FL coastal waters,
with this feature moving slowly westward. Meanwhile, slowly
weakening Atlantic high pressure (1024 millibars) was now centered
near Bermuda, with this feature extending its axis across the Deep
South. Aloft...a remnant trough over the southeastern states was in
the process of shearing out as ridging centered over Deep South
Texas was expanding eastward across the lower Mississippi Valley.
Latest GOES-East derived Total Precipitable Water imagery indicates
that deeper moisture prevails for locations along and south of the
Interstate 10 corridor, where PWATs were in the 1.8 - 2 inch range,
while values north of I-10 were generally in the 1.5 - 1.75 inch
range. Widely scattered showers that were being generated by the
inverted trough over the Atlantic waters adjacent to northeast FL
were occasionally moving onshore, mainly along the Duval and St.
Johns County coastlines. Mid and high altitude cloud cover was
gradually thinning from north to south across our region as
troughing shears out, with the inverted surface trough was producing
pockets of lower cumulus clouds, mainly at coastal locations.
Temperatures at 06Z remain in the 70s across most of our area,
except upper 60s for portions of inland southeast GA, where
dewpoints were in the mid 60s. Dewpoints elsewhere were generally in
the lower 70s.

Inverted surface troughing will push onshore along the east central
and northeast FL coasts this morning, likely developing widely
scattered showers along the I-95 corridor this morning. This trough
will then dissipate this afternoon inland, with the inland moving
Atlantic sea breeze boundary focusing widely scattered showers and
possibly a few thunderstorms along the I-75 corridor in north
central FL and the Suwannee Valley later this afternoon. PWATs
across southeast GA will increase above 1.75 inches this afternoon,
with just enough forcing provided by the inland moving Atlantic sea
breeze boundary to develop isolated to perhaps widely scattered
showers and a few embedded thunderstorms, with activity developing
along the U.S. Highway 301 corridor early this afternoon then
shifting inland by the mid to late afternoon hours. Rising heights
aloft and less in the way of mid and high altitude cloudiness should
allow highs to reach the lower 90s for locations west of the I-95
corridor this afternoon, while morning showers and breezy onshore
winds developing this afternoon keep highs in the 85-90 degree range
for locations along and east of I-95. Heat index values should peak
in the 95-100 range this afternoon. Rainfall amounts today will
mostly remain below one quarter of an inch.

A late developing Gulf coast sea breeze boundary may collide with
the inland moving Atlantic sea breeze early this evening near or
just west of the I-75 corridor, which could keep scattered showers
and isolated thunderstorms ongoing through the early evening hours.
Fair skies will otherwise prevail overnight, with a few pockets of
lower stratus cloudiness and possibly some patchy fog developing at
inland locations towards sunrise on Thursday. Lows will generally
fall to the low and mid 70s, with a light southerly breeze
potentially keeping coastal lows in the upper 70s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
Main Highlights This Period:

- Heat Index Back into the Triple Digits to end the work week

- Gradual Increase In Afternoon Thunderstorm Chances Through the Week

- Moderate Risk for Rip Currents

Not much significant change over the last 24 hours in the pattern. A
light steering flow will transition from southerly to westerly
through Friday, realigning the best potential for showers and
isolated thunderstorms from the I-75 corridor Thursday afternoon and
evening to east of US 301 on Friday. Convection will largely be
diurnal each day, with a pronounced downward trend after sunset and
dry conditions by midnight. There should be an influx in deep layer
moisture through the end of the week but the latest REFS guidance
soundings do indicate weak lapse rates aloft under the influence of
upper ridging stretch along the northern Gulf coast. Strong,
isolated thunderstorms cannot be entirely ruled out, with the
primary threat being isolated lightning and spotty, brief downpours.

This building upper ridge and associated thermal ridge in the low
levels will boost temps to end the week, with low to mid 90s inland
Thursday to widespread highs reading in the mid 90s by Friday for
most areas, except at the immediate beachside zones where highs will
be a few degrees cooler. Combining the hotter temperatures with the
afternoon humidity, heat index values will be pushing into the
upper 90s Thursday to the lower 100s Friday.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Main Highlights This Period:

- Dangerous Heat for Sensitive Groups This Weekend

- Scattered to Numerous Thunderstorms Along the Coastal Counties
  This Weekend

Rain and thunderstorm chances will increase to 50-70% for coastal
areas along the I-95 corridor this weekend as deep moisture pooled
ahead of a stalling front situated to the northwest is advected into
the region on west to northwesterly flow. The low level flow being
predominantly southwesterly will focus the best chances toward the
Atlantic coast, particularly on Sunday.

The primary concern during this period will be the dangerous heat
forecast. Highs will approach the mid to upper 90s inland, and low
90s along the immediate east coast, with maximum heat indices
approaching 104-108 degrees Saturday. Given the compounding heat and
the potential for warm overnight conditions with lows only in the
upper 70s, it'll feel oppressive for public that aren't able to stay
adequately cool. A Heat Advisory will need to be considered for
Saturday.

For next week, deeper moisture will remain while southwesterly
steering flow is enhanced by an upstream trough. The associated
frontal boundary will press toward the area but is likely to stall
to the north, keeping the better chances/heavier rain just north of
the forecast area during the middle part of next week. Given the
breezy offshore flow that will prevail, temperatures at the beaches
will likely be as hot as inland locations next week, generally in
the low 90s.

.AVIATION /12Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH 12Z THURSDAY/...
Scattered shower activity per latest radar imagery along the
Atlantic coast will gradually shift inland during the day but not
before MVFR showers affect the coastal TAFs through the morning
hours. Otherwise, primarily VFR clouds for the sites, but some low
vsby sub MVFR at VQQ early this morning. With the sea breeze
developing late morning, convective activity will push toward the I-
75 corridor today and potentially affect GNV with a TSRA but
confidence only enough for a PROB30 group despite the fairly rich
moisture in this airmass. Most convective activity for the TAFs will
fade by about sunset today. Light southeasterly surface winds will
become sustained at 5-10 knots at the inland terminals by 15Z, while
speeds increase to 10-15 knots at the coastal terminals by 19Z.
Light winds expected tonight.

&&

.MARINE...

Scattered showers and a few embedded thunderstorms expected through
the late morning hours today. Otherwise, Atlantic high pressure
centered near Bermuda will extend its axis across our local waters
today before shifting southward and weakening on Thursday and
Friday. Breezy onshore winds will develop over the near shore waters
this afternoon and again on Thursday and Friday afternoons as the
Atlantic sea breeze shifts inland. Weak troughing will then develop
this weekend over the southeastern states, shifting prevailing winds
to southwest. This shift in the weather pattern will bring scattered
afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms to at least the near
shore waters through early next week. Southerly evening wind surges
may increase speeds to near Caution levels during the evening hours
this weekend and early next week.

Rip Currents: Breezy onshore winds this afternoon will combine with
a developing northeasterly ocean swell to maintain a lower end
moderate rip current risk at all area beaches, especially during the
late afternoon outgoing tide. This swell will likely persist through
Thursday, keeping the lower end moderate risk in place at area
beaches. The northeasterly swell will then fade towards Friday,
which could lower the risk at the southeast GA beaches, while a
lower end moderate risk likely continues each afternoon at the
northeast FL beaches, where breezy onshore winds will develop
following the inland movement of the Atlantic sea breeze.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...

High pressure will be in a position to favor the Atlantic sea breeze
through Thursday. Expect accompanying sea breeze wind speeds to be
in the 8-12 mph range, or around 5-9 at eye level. Temperatures will
continue to heat up this week with mid 90s likely this weekend while
lowest afternoon humidity be similar to the last few days around 40-
45%. Anticipate the return of more regular bouts of scattered
afternoon thunderstorms late this week and numerous thunderstorms
this weekend as deeper moisture moves into the region. Though fine
fuels have dried to critical levels during the recent dry stretch,
there is no glaring potential of concerning fire weather alignment.
Breezy southwesterly winds will and elevated dispersion will
develop next week ahead of an front that is expected to stall across
central GA.

FOG POTENTIAL AND OTHER REMARKS: Patchy inland fog is possible but
significant fog development is not expected.

&&

.CLIMATE...
The return of summertime heat later this week and over the weekend
will lead to near record temperatures. Less likely to see readings
reach record highs but there is potential for record high minimum
temperatures to be threatened.
