.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Friday)
Issued at 1220 AM EST Thu Nov 20 2025

Upper level ridging extends from the Gulf into Canada, with South
Florida remaining on the eastern periphery of this feature. At the
surface, high pressure centered over the western Atlantic will
continue to shift offshore. This will maintain east-northeasterly
flow over the area, and partly cloudy conditions each day through
the period. Moisture profiles remain below average, with PWAT
values ranging from .8 inches to 1 inch, but there may be a few
isolated showers along the east coast during the morning hours
each day. Without ample moisture and forcing, these would be low-
topped and extremely short-lived. POPs remain less than 10% for
all of South Florida.

High temperatures today and tomorrow will reach the lower 80s along
the coastline, with mid to upper 80s possible for portions of
interior South Florida.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Friday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 1220 AM EST Thu Nov 20 2025

Not much change with the long term outlook as high pressure firmly
remains in control through the weekend into the new work-week. Late
in the weekend a weakening cold front will settle into north Florida
and washout early next week with another area of high pressure
building in from the north. This boundary is expected to be so weak
that we may not even see a surface flow response to it across South
Florida and maintain east-northeast flow through the weekend. With a
lack of moisture, and a lack of moisture advection from this frontal
boundary, sensible impacts will be nearly nonexistent and we should
be able to maintain primarily partly cloudy and pleasant conditions
each day through the long term period.

High temperatures will reach the low to mid 80s each afternoon along
the coasts while some portions of inland SW Florida may hit the
upper 80s. Overnight lows will be in the mid to upper 60s.

or less.
