.NEAR TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 311 AM EST Thu Nov 21 2024

A secondary cold front is pushing through the region early this
morning and this front has been ushering in the stronger push of
colder weather. Despite full sunshine this afternoon, high
temperatures will still only be in the mid 60s. These will be the
coolest temperatures of the Fall season so far. Later tonight,
northwest flow continues but it should subside somewhat given the
dry and clear conditions. However, ideal radiational cooling
conditions aren`t expected given winds remaining elevated
overnight. Low temperatures will be much cooler and in the upper
30s across Alabama/Georgia counties and around 40 in our Florida
counties.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 641 AM EST Thu Nov 21 2024

Dry northwest flow will keep VFR conditions in place through the
TAF period. Only aviation concerns will be occasional gusts of 20

.MARINE...
Issued at 311 AM EST Thu Nov 21 2024

Solid Advisory-level conditions will continue today into tomorrow
following a strong cold front that pushed through on Wednesday.
Winds will be out of the northwest with gusts up to around 30kts.
Seas will begin to decrease during the afternoon on Friday as
winds begin to relax and become more northerly over the weekend.
High pressure settles over the region this weekend bringing winds
down to a gentle or light breeze with seas averaging 1-3 feet. As
we start the new work week, winds will become southerly when the
surface high pressure moves east over to the Atlantic.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 311 AM EST Thu Nov 21 2024

Recent wetting rains should keep fire weather concerns low
despite the breezier and much drier pattern we`ll see on Thursday
and Friday. Dispersions will be high this afternoon and remain
elevated again on Friday due to elevated northwesterly transport
winds and 3 - 5 kft mixing heights. Surface winds will remain
elevated around 10 mph with gusts around 20 mph this afternoon.
Light winds expected over the upcoming weekend which should allow
low fire weather concerns to continue.

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 311 AM EST Thu Nov 21 2024

Little to no rainfall is expected over the next few days into the
start of next week. There are no flooding concerns at this time.
