Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report

EOC Activation Level: Level 2
Meteorological Summary:
    • Clear skies this morning will give way to another sunny and dry day across the Sunshine State as high pressure builds into the northern Gulf and Southeast U.S.
    • Relative humidities will dip to near critical thresholds across North Florida this afternoon (30-35% RH values) which will lead to locally sensitive wildfire conditions given the ongoing severe drought.
    • Winds will remain generally light across the state, though a few wind gusts upwards of 20 mph are possible across coastal Southeast Florida this afternoon.
    • Highs will remain seasonably cool today, reaching the upper 50s to lower 60s across North Florida, middle to upper 60s in Central Florida, and lower to middle 70s in South Florida.
    • A clear and calm night will promote cool temperatures across much of North and Central Florida overnight.
      • A Freeze Warning is in effect for portions of the Suwannee Valley bordering the Georgia border where lows will dip into the upper 20s to lower 30s.
      • A Frost Advisory is in effect for the lower Suwannee Valley.
    • Lows will reach into the lower to middle 30s across interior portions of the Panhandle and upper 30s to lower 40s along coastal areas.
      • Patchy frost or freeze cannot be ruled out across interior portions of the Panhandle overnight.
    • In Central Florida, lows in the upper 30s to middle 40s can be expected.
    • Cool temperatures will also reach into interior South Florida overnight with lows dropping into the upper 40s near Lake Okeechobee and lower 50s elsewhere.
    • Coastal regions of South Florida and the Keys will only reach the upper 50s to upper 60s.
    • A moderate risk for rip currents is expected for most Florida Beaches today, with local high risks for coastal Gulf and Palm Beach counties.
