Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 733am EDT Tuesday Mar 19 2024 Long Term (Wednesday night through Monday) Issued at 310am EDT Tuesday Mar 19 2024 Beautiful weather is expected through Thursday as high pressure to our north remains in control. Temperatures during this time period will be at or slightly below normal, likely in the upper 70s to around 80 degrees across South Florida. A potent system is then expected to cross FL Friday into early Saturday. Deterministic and ensemble guidance all points to the potential for heavy rainfall across portions of South FL. Early forecast Quantitative Precipitation Forecast ranges from 1-3 inches, although some locally higher amounts will certainly be possible. Still too early to determine if there will be a severe threat on Friday into Friday evening, but that potential will be monitored closely over the next several days. Southerly winds will be quite gusty through late Friday night, especially along the coasts, with gusts of 30 mph + possible. Once the system moves off to the east, much drier conditions are expected for Sunday into early next week as weak upper level ridging builds into the region. Temperatures Friday through the weekend will be right around climatological norms. Marine Issued at 310am EDT Tuesday Mar 19 2024 Winds and seas are expected to increase for today especially over the Atlantic waters as a frontal boundary passes through the area this morning. Seas could reach as high as 7-10ft with wind gusts up to 25-30kts. These hazardous marine conditions will begin to subside Tuesday night into the mid-week period. Beaches Issued at 310am EDT Tuesday Mar 19 2024 The risk for rip currents becomes high across the east coast beaches today behind a cold front passage. The risk may remain elevated through the rest of the week as easterly flow returns. Fire Weather Issued at 310am EDT Tuesday Mar 19 2024 Minimum relative humidity values are expected to drop to the 30-40% range today for most of South Florida as a surface high builds behind the front and a dry air mass sets in. East coast areas are likely 40-45% and interior to the west coast between 30-40%, with lowest RHs occurring from the western interior to the west coastline. Winds are not expected to reach warning criteria levels. NOAA Miami FL Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories FL...High Rip Current Risk through this evening for FLZ168-172-173.
