Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report

EOC Activation Level: Level 2 
Meteorological Summary:
  • Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms expected across the Sunshine State once again today (45-70% chance of rain).
  • Thunderstorms maximize in coverage and intensity this afternoon hours as a late season "cold" front interacts with the daily sea breeze.
  • Marginal Risk (level 1 of 5) for Severe Weather outlooked for North and Central Florida; however, any thunderstorm will be capable of producing gusty winds (45-60 mph), frequent lightning, instances of hail, and heavy downpours.
  • Locally heavy downpours may accompany thunderstorms and lead to areas of nuisance flooding and ponding water, especially for low-lying and poor drainage areas that have received recent heavy rainfall.
  • Triple digit heat indices (98 to 103-degrees) develop nearly statewide; a few West Florida locations may briefly reach Heat Advisory (near 105-degrees) criteria prior to any rain relief.
  • Rain chances remain elevated overnight as our late season frontal boundary advances southeastward to the Florida Peninsula (40-60% chance of rain).
  • A few interior Florida locations may see patchy fog and low clouds form tonight into Saturday morning; however, widespread fog development is not anticipated.
  • A moderate to high risk of rip currents continues for most Florida Panhandle beaches, with moderate risk conditions expected along the Space and Treasure Coasts.
