.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A cold front is mostly south of the area with a prevailing north to
northeast flow. This front will start to move back north over the
area this evening while a weak low pressure trough/low develops off
the southeast GA coast and moves northeast. Meanwhile, an area of
low pressure will form near the western FL panhandle by 1 AM, and
tracks northeastward. The low will reach into the south central GA
area by about 7 AM Tuesday, and by then the warm front will push up
into southeast GA.

Mainly isolated shower activity over the area at this time. A small
batch of showers over the FL panhandle/Big Bend at noon, that will
be headed into southeast GA by late aftn and this evening.

Overnight, a stronger cold front will approach from the west and we
will see more numerous showers and possibly isolated isolated storm
chances after midnight, especially for inland southeast Georgia and
over the local waters. Higher storm coverage / strong storm
potential will increase after daybreak.

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
The cold front will move southeast across the region during the day
Tuesday. Showers with embedded thunderstorms are expected to develop
along and ahead of the front. A few strong thunderstorms are
expected. Based on frontal timing, there will be a large range in
temperatures Tuesday, with highs in the middle 60s over inland SE
GA, to near 80 south of Gainesville.

The front will move off to the southeast Tuesday night, as high
pressure builds from the northwest. The high will build to the north
Wednesday. Cold advection will a northerly flow will keep
temperatures below normal Wednesday with high s about 10 degrees
lower than Wednesday. Ridging will remain in place into Wednesday
night, with lows dipping into the middle 30s over inland SE GA, and
upper 30s to lower 40s over inland NE FL. The northerly flow down
the coast, will keep temperatures a little milder at beachfront
communities. Frost will be expected over inland SE GA Tuesday night
and Wednesday night.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
High pressure ridging will weaken across the area Thursday, as
another low begins to lift northeast out of the Gulf. This low will
then track northeast across the southeastern US Friday into Friday
night. The cold front associated with this low will track southeast
into area Friday night, and may stall through Saturday night, before
slowly moving to the south Sunday into Sunday night. High pressure
will build to the north Monday.

Chances for showers and thunderstorms will be forecast from
Friday through Sunday night.

remaining sites with broken ceilings 1.5-2.0 kft. Southwest winds 12-
