.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Tuesday)
Issued at 129 AM EDT Mon Sep 22 2025
Deep layer moisture is slowly returning to South Florida as PWATs
rise above 2 inches again per the 00Z MFL sounding. As high pressure
pushes off the US east coast, surface flow will become more easterly
today and tomorrow. With the return of deeper moisture, increased
cloud cover will once again plague South Florida much of the
early week period. Coastal showers and storms may once again begin
early this morning, developing into more robust thunderstorm
complexes during the early afternoon and evening. With prevailing
easterly flow, highest rain chances are expected to migrate
westward through the day with best chances across east coast areas
during the early afternoon hours and early evening for portions
of Southwest Florida.
Deep moisture hangs around heading into Tuesday, and cloud cover is
expected to linger through most of the day. A few peeks of sun will
be possible during the morning hours, along with additional morning
coastal showers. Once again, thunderstorms will develop and migrate
inland through the day.
Localized flooding will be the primary concern through the period,
with the possibility that some areas may see repeated rounds of
heavy rainfall over short periods of time. Rounds of heavy rainall
coupled with poor drainage, construction zones, and blocked sewer
drains, could lead to roadway flooding and drivers should heed
caution.
High temperatures will be on the cooler side due to increased cloud
cover with highs topping out in the upper 80s each day. Lows will
drop into the mid to upper 70s. &&
.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 129 AM EDT Mon Sep 22 2025
High pressure will maintain an onshore east-northeast flow during
the mid-week period. On Thursday and Friday, a very subtle boundary
draped across Central Florida could progress southward which
would kick the plume of deep layer moisture over the Southern
peninsula towards the South. On Thursday and Friday, modeled PWATs
drop into the 1.7-1.8 inch range which will subsequently drop
rain chances for the end of the week into the weekend into the
40-50% range. Despite slightly lower moisture, scattered showers
and storms will be expected each afternoon and evening with the
possibility of coastal showers across eastern areas during the
morning hours. With lower moisture, each day during the late week
period and upcoming weekend will begin with much more sun, and
cloud cover will increase into the afternoon hours and showers and
storms begin to develop. The obvious exception will be for
portions of the east coast that do end up receiving an isolated
morning shower.
High temperatures through the period will reach the lower 90s with
overnight lows in the 70s.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 129 AM EDT Mon Sep 22 2025
VFR prevails through the overnight period with a chance for
showers and thunderstorms during the mid to late morning hours
continuing through the evening. Easterly flow prevails through the
period.

.MARINE...
Issued at 129 AM EDT Mon Sep 22 2025
A moderate east-northeasterly breeze will continue today. Seas
across the Atlantic waters will generally remain between 2 to 3 feet
while seas across the Gulf waters remain at 1 to 2 feet. Showers and
storms are likely throughout the day across local waters, especially
over the Atlantic side. Periods of rough seas and gusty winds will
be possible near the most robust shower and thunderstorm activity.
