DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 237 AM EDT SUN JUN 28 2026
CURRENT-TONIGHT...MID-LEVEL RIDGING PRESENT ACROSS THE DEEP SOUTH TO
INCLUDE THE FL PENINSULA. AT THE SURFACE, WEAK HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING
CONTINUES ACROSS THE CENTRAL FL PENINSULA. LIGHT/VARIABLE WINDS WILL
TRANSITION ONSHORE ALONG THE COAST THIS AFTERNOON AS THE ECSB
DEVELOPS AND PUSHES WELL INLAND WITH LATE DAY/EARLY EVENING
BOUNDARY COLLISIONS ACROSS THE INTERIOR. ISOLD-WDLY SCT CONVECTION
MAY DEVELOP ALONG THE ECSB BY EARLY AFTERNOON WITH BOTH COVERAGE
AND INTENSITY INCREASING INTO THE INTERIOR THRU LATE DAY/EVENING.
PRIMARY STORM IMPACTS REMAIN FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES, LOCALLY
GUSTY WINDS OF 35-50 MPH, AND TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS. DUE TO THE
SLOW MOVEMENT OF CELLS, MINOR/NUISANCE FLOODING WILL BE ONE OF
THE BIGGEST STORM CONCERNS. QUICK 2-3" AMOUNTS MAY OCCUR WITH A
FEW STORMS LATE TODAY AND WILL BE HANDLED WITH FLOOD ADVISORIES AS
NECESSARY.
CONDITIONS CONTINUE HOT AND HUMID WITH L90S ALONG THE COAST AND M90S
INLAND (POTENTIALLY ISOLD U90S). PEAK HEAT INDICES CONTINUE 102-
107F. WIDESPREAD MODERATE TO MAJOR HEATRISK EXPECTED. IF YOU ARE
PLANNING TO SPEND TIME OUTDOORS, TAKE PLENTY OF BREAKS IN THE SHADE
OR A/C AND STAY WELL-HYDRATED TO AVOID HEAT-RELATED FATIGUE/ILLNESS.
NEVER LEAVE PETS OR CHILDREN IN VEHICLES UNATTENDED! WARM & HUMID AT
NIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE M-U70S.
MON-SAT...STRONG MID-LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE GRADUALLY LIFTS FROM THE
MISSISSIPPI/TENNESSEE VALLEYS INTO THE OHIO VALLEY/APPALACHIA THRU
MID-WEEK, FINALLY WEAKENING LATE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND ACROSS THE
ATLC SEABOARD. A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS FORECAST TO SLIDE
SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE FL PENINSULA EARLY-MID WEEK. MOISTENING
OCCURS EARLY IN THE PERIOD IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE BOUNDARY. STILL
SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH MEDIUM RANGE MODELS. THE FLOW BECOMES
ONSHORE BEHIND THE BOUNDARY AS DEEPER MOISTURE AGAIN SURGES ACROSS
ECFL. THE DAILY SEA BREEZE REGIME IS IN FULL GEAR WITH CONTINUED
WEAK/ERRATIC STORM STEERING FORECAST. AS SUCH, SCT-NMRS MAINLY
DIURNAL CONVECTIVE CHANCES FOR MUCH OF THE PERIOD (HIGHEST
INTERIOR). WILL MONITOR POP NUMBERS, BUT WARMING IN THE MID-LEVELS
AND ONSHORE FLOW (ALOFT) WOULD TEND TOWARD LOWER OVERALL POPS AS
THE NBM MAY BE TOO HIGH ESP MID TO LATE WEEK. PRIMARY STORM
IMPACTS CONTINUE TO BE LIGHTNING STRIKES, LOCALLY GUSTY WINDS
35-50 MPH, AND HEAVY DOWNPOURS POTENTIALLY LEADING TO MINOR
FLOODING CONCERNS.
HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH NEXT WEEK, WITH
AFTERNOON HIGHS IN THE LOW TO MID 90S. THESE TEMPERATURES COMBINED
WITH HIGH HUMIDITY WILL PRODUCE PEAK HEAT INDICES OF 100-107F, AND
WIDESPREAD MODERATE TO MAJOR HEATRISK CONTINUING. MON WILL BE THE
HOTTEST DAY AND MAY NEED TO MONITOR FOR A HEAT ADVISORY. WARM AND
MUGGY CONDITIONS CONTINUE AT NIGHT, WITH MINS IN THE L-U70S.
MARINE
ISSUED AT 237 AM EDT SUN JUN 28 2026
THRU THU...GENERALLY FAVORABLE BOATING CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE INTO
NEXT WEEK AS LIGHT/VARIABLE FLOW TURNS ONSHORE EACH AFTERNOON WITH
THE EAST COAST SEA BREEZE. WITH A WEAK PRESSURE GRADIENT IN PLACE,
WINDS GENERALLY 7-12 KTS OR LESS WITH SEAS 2-3 FT (UP TO 4 FT WELL
OFFSHORE) THROUGH MID NEXT WEEK. LATE NIGHT AND EARLY MORNING
SHOWERS AND ISOLATED LIGHTNING STORMS WILL TRANSITION INLAND
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS, THOUGH SOME PUSHBACK
OF EVENING STORMS COULD OCCUR EARLY NEXT WEEK AS STORM MOTION
REMAINS SLOW/ERRATIC. MOISTURE INCREASES AS A SURFACE BOUNDARY
APPROACHES MON-WED, SO RAIN CHANCES INCREASE, GENERALLY NORTH OF
THE CAPE. WINDS/SEAS LOCALLY HIGHER INVOF STORMS.
