Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report

EOC Activation Level: Level 2 
Meteorological Summary:
  • Areas of patchy dense fog have developed across the western Panhandle this morning and will slowly lift and dissipate by mid-morning.
  • Otherwise, a mostly cloudy day is expected throughout the Panhandle and Big Bend with isolated showers and thunderstorms this afternoon (30-45% chance of rain).
  • Further east, the East Coast sea breeze will help to spark scattered showers and thunderstorms across the I-95 corridor this afternoon, especially across Northeast and East-Central Florida where a Marginal Risk (level 1 of 5) for Severe Weather is outlooked.
    • The primary hazards with any locally strong to severe thunderstorm activity will be frequent lightning, gusty winds (40-60 mph), and small hail.
  • A few isolated storms may develop throughout interior South Florida as well (30-45% chance of rain).
  • Although there is no organized risk for flash flooding, a few locally heavy downpours capable of producing nuisance street flooding cannot be ruled out in urban and poor drainage locations that see repeated rounds of heavy rainfall.
  • Winds will remain light across the state today, though sensitive to locally elevated wildfire danger will still persist throughout interior Southwest Florida where lower relative humidities are expected (40-45%).
  • High temperatures will soar well into the lower to middle 90s in Central and South Florida today, with feels-like temperatures reaching the lower to middle 100s in Southwest Florida.
  • Abundant cloud cover will keep temperatures cooler in the middle to upper 80s in North Florida this afternoon.
  • Showers and thunderstorms will linger into the evening and overnight hours across the eastern Peninsula before dissipating before midnight (30-40% chance of rain).
  • Otherwise, a mostly calm night is expected across the state.
  • Areas of patchy dense fog may develop across North Florida by daybreak Monday and Dense Fog Advisories may be issued if conditions warrant.
  • Low temperatures will fall into the upper 60s to middle 70s for much of the state, with upper 70s to lower 80s across metro Southeast Florida and the Keys.
  • A moderate risk for rip currents is expected for Panhandle and East Coast beaches today.
  • According to the Florida Forest Service, there are 63 active wildfires across the state burning approximately 17,629 acres.
