.DISCUSSION...

Surface high pressure centered over Florida, the Bahamas,
and the eastern Gulf will remain place with light to moderate
southerly winds through the forecast. A weak inversion may be
in place tonight at around 500 feet, with a bit stronger one
near 2000 feet. Minimum RH values will remain around the 40
to 60 percent range through the weekend. There will be
potential for afternoon thunderstorms each day beginning on
Monday, but areal coverage of storms is likely to be rather
limited each day.

.REMARKS...
1) No fog expected to develop.

2) Similar to yesterday, wind direction will remain relatively
consistent throughout the day. Any resemblance of a sea breeze
will be noted 10a-noon with a 5 mph-ish increase in sustained
speeds and gusts.

3) Confidence in maintaining that westerly component decreases
after 1200 with due south winds possible by around 1400. It would
be wise to monitor wind direction very closely after 1200 as wind
direction could just as easily be 170deg as it could be 190deg.
