Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report

EOC Activation Level: Level 2 
Meteorological Summary:
  • Mostly dry conditions will prevail statewide today with sunny skies this afternoon as high pressure remains overhead.
  • A few isolated showers or embedded thunderstorms cannot be ruled out across interior Central and South Florida along the sea breezes as they push inland (15-20% chance of rain), though activity will generally be light and brief in nature.
    • Should a heavier slow-moving cell develop, a quick 1-2” of rain cannot be ruled out in localized areas.
  • The high-pressure system will bring temperatures to near-record levels this afternoon, with highs reaching the middle to upper 80s across interior portions of the state. A few locations may top out near 90-degrees.
  • Breezier winds of 15-20 mph will keep temperatures in the 70s to lower 80s along the coasts.
  • Relative humidities will remain above critical thresholds this afternoon, however the ongoing drought will continue to promote sensitive to locally elevated wildfire conditions this afternoon.
  • Clear and calm conditions tonight will encourage another night of fog and low cloud development, with portions of interior Central and South Florida favored for locally dense fog.
  • Lows will only reach into the upper 50s to middle 60s across much of the state, with coastal Southeast Florida and the Keys reaching the lower 70s.
  • A moderate risk for rip currents is expected for most East Coast and Panhandle beaches today, with a local high risk along Palm Beach County beaches.
