Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report

EOC Activation Level: Level 2 
Meteorological Summary:
 
  • A bit more moisture is expected to creep into the state today as high pressure over the northern Gulf begins to weaken and shift westward.
  • Breezy onshore flow will also increase along the East Coast today which, along with the afternoon sea breeze boundaries, will encourage a few isolated to scattered showers or thunderstorms to develop this afternoon (20-30% chance of rain).
  • A locally higher chance of rain exists across Southwest Florida where sea breeze boundary collisions are most favorable (40-60% chance of rain).
  • Throughout North Florida, an upper-level disturbance will rotate across the region, helping to spark a few showers and storms across the eastern Panhandle (25-35% chance of rain).
  • Although there is no organized risk for flash flooding today, any storm statewide could produce occasional lightning and locally heavy downpours.
  • Warm and muggy conditions will continue across the state today, though a bit more cloud cover will keep high temperatures and feels-like temperatures in the upper 80s to middle 90s for most.
  • A few locations across South Florida may see heat indices near 100-degrees.
  • Recent hot and dry conditions have helped to dry out vegetation statewide which will encourage locally sensitive wildfire conditions despite relative humidities remaining above critical thresholds and winds below 20 mph.
  • Lows will fall into the 70s to lower 80s across the state tonight.
  • A bit more moisture and calmer winds may promote patchy fog development across the western Panhandle by daybreak Wednesday.
  • A moderate risk for rip currents is expected for most eastern Panhandle beaches and all East Coast beaches.
  • According to the Florida Forest Service, there are 43 active wildfires across the state burning approximately 7,397 acres.
  • Tropical development is not expected over the next 7 days across the Atlantic basin.
