Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tallahassee FL 256pm EDT Monday Oct 14 2024 .SHORT AND Long Term (Tuesday night through Sunday) Issued at 251pm EDT Monday Oct 14 2024 Deep upper level troughing holds through Wednesday, while a massive area of high pressure builds in from the west. This will push the upper level troughing off the East Coast while ridging then nestles in for the remainder of the week. At the surface, a cold front will be continuing to work through the region. This will bring a blast of colder and drier air to the region, putting Wednesday's highs into the mid to upper 60s north of I-10 and in the upper 60s to low 70s south of I-10. High pressure then builds behind it, leading to a chilly night. Opted to follow suit with the night shift's forecast and advertise lows in the upper 30s to mid 40s across much of the region. After that, a gradual warming trend is forecast thanks to high pressure dominating the forecast. Highs are back into the 70s by Friday and the mid 70s to low 80s by the weekend, while lows vary from the mid 50s to the low 60s. Marine Issued at 251pm EDT Monday Oct 14 2024 Surface high pressure maintains fair weather favorable boating conditions today and tonight. On Tuesday, a cold front sweeps across the waters, ushering in brisk northwest winds that increase winds and seas. Small Craft Advisories will likely start late Tuesday night and persist through the rest of the week. Fire Weather Issued at 251pm EDT Monday Oct 14 2024 Dry weather is expected through the forecast period. The main fire weather concern on Tuesday will be low dispersions persisting into the afternoon in portions of the FL, Southeast AL, and Southern tier of GA counties. A cold frontal passage Tuesday night sets the stage for a dry air mass and breezy conditions on Wednesday. In particular, drying fuels, minimum afternoon RH values ranging from the mid-20s to mid-30s, and sustained winds approaching 15 mph. While the forecast will be fine-tuned as we draw nearer, portions of the FL Panhandle and Big Bend have the highest potential for elevated fire weather concerns on Wednesday. Hydrology Issued at 251pm EDT Monday Oct 14 2024 A few rivers across the Suwanee Basin remain in action stage. Outside of that, dry conditions look to prevail through the forecast period. Thus, there are no hydrology concerns at this time. NOAA Tallahassee FL Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories FL...High Rip Current Risk through late tonight for FLZ114. GA...None. AL...None. GM...None. |
