.DISCUSSION...Good afternoon! A ridge of high pressure north of the
area will gradually weaken over the next several days. A tropical
wave will continue to slowly approach the Northeast Florida and
Southeast Georgia coast tonight, bringing increasing moisture to the
area. The National Hurricane Center is forecasting a 60 percent
chance of this wave developing into a short-lived tropical depression
before reaching the coast. However, even if this occurs, the system
is forecast to remain weak, and impacts to the exercise area will
remain largely unchanged compared to tropical wave impacts.
Rain chances are forecast to remain below 10 percent through Saturday
night as better chances for showers and thunderstorms associated with
the tropical feature remain well southeast of the area. However, the
increasing low-level moisture, in concert with slowly rising
temperatures through the weekend, will lead to increasing heat
indices. Maximum heat indices on Saturday afternoon are forecast to
reach around 96, with values near 98 Sunday afternoon.
By Sunday afternoon, there will be a slight chance (15%) of
showers and thunderstorms as moisture from the remnant tropical
feature continues to slowly spread across the area.
Winds will be generally light out of the east through Saturday with
gusts to around 10 mph each afternoon. Winds will become west of
Sunday, but speeds are expected to remain light, with gusts to 14
mph during the afternoon.
