Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report

EOC Activation Level: Level 2

Meteorological Summary:

Gradual warming trend continues across the Sunshine State, courtesy of an area of high pressure positioned between two frontal boundaries.
Showers currently pinned along the Southeast Florida coastline increase in coverage and potentially intensity this afternoon (50-70% chance of rain).
There is no organized risk for flash flooding; however, rainfall rates will be the primary trend to monitor as shower and thunderstorm activity will be slow-moving.
Minor street flooding and ponding water possible along and east of the I-95 corridor should heavier rainfall move onshore.
Farther north, rain chances will gradually return to the western Florida Panhandle today (30-45% chance of rain), with a few rumbles of thunder possible.
Lingering low-level moisture within today’s easterly flow may support the development of fog and low clouds tonight; greatest potential for reduced visibilities across North Florida.
Onshore flow and lingering elevated surf will yield a moderate to high risk of rip currents along the Florida East Coast, moderate risk conditions continue along the Florida Panhandle.
Improving relative humidity values and calmer winds keep the overall wildfire threat low statewide.
