Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report
EOC Activation Level: Level 2
EOC Activation Level: Level 2
Meteorological Summary:
- Areas of patchy dense fog have developed across interior South and Northeast Florida this morning and will be slow to lift and dissipate with sunrise.
- Otherwise, another mostly sunny and dry day will prevail across North Florida where low relative humidities (35-40%) will continue to promote sensitive wildfire conditions.
- Across Central and South Florida, a stalled frontal boundary will allow plenty of moisture to pool across the Peninsula for scattered shower and thunderstorm development this afternoon, mainly along and south of the I-4 corridor (50-65% chance of rain).
- Although there is no organized risk for severe weather or flash flooding, some of these slow-moving thunderstorms could become locally strong to severe and produce gusty winds, frequent lightning, and locally heavy downpours.
- Rainfall totals will generally remain below 1", though localized totals upwards of 4" cannot be ruled out in areas that see repeated rounds of slow-moving heavy downpours.
- Winds will remain generally light today outside of thunderstorm activity, however a few breezy gusts upwards of 20-25 mph are possible along the I-95 corridor.
- High temperatures will warm into the lower to middle 80s throughout interior portions of the state today with coastal locations remaining in the 70s.
- The frontal boundary draped across the Peninsula will slowly drift northward tonight, allowing for moisture and some isolated showers and thunderstorms to lift northward into Northeast Florida (15-25% chance of rain).
- Coastal showers will linger throughout the night across Southeast Florida and the Keys (40-55% chance of rain).
- Low-level moisture and calm winds will promote additional development of fog and low clouds tonight, mainly throughout the interior Peninsula, some of which could become locally dense.
- Low temperatures will fall into the upper 50s to lower 60s across North Florida and middle to upper 60s throughout Central and South Florida. The Southeast Florida metro region and Keys will remain in the 70s.
- A high risk for rip currents remains for most East Coast beaches today; a moderate risk for rip currents is expected for most Panhandle and Southeast Florida beaches.
