752 FXUS62 KMFL 150532 AFDMFL Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Miami FL 132 AM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025 ...New AVIATION... .SHORT TERM... (Today through Monday) Issued at 1241 AM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Surface high pressure centered over the Atlantic will continue to hold a southeasterly wind flow over South Florida Sunday and Monday. The Atlantic high pressure extends into the mid-levels of the atmosphere which will combine with a drier atmosphere to reinforce lower convective coverage. The southeasterly wind flow will favor the Atlantic sea breeze progressing inland while restraining the Gulf sea breeze. Accordingly, the diurnal thunderstorm pattern will favor shower and storm development over the waters late night into the early morning, transitioning ashore with the sea breeze in an isolated fashion in the morning, before increasing coverage inland with a peak over Southwest Florida due to the restrained Gulf breeze. Some isolated thunderstorms could become strong with frequent lightning, heavy rainfall, and strong wind gusts. Temperatures will continue to be on the warm side with overnight lows in the 70s though some portions of the east coast metro may struggle to fall below 80. Widespread maximum temperatures in the upper 80s to lower 90s for Sunday and Monday with heat index values reaching the triple digits over inland South Florida and portions of Southwest Florida. && .LONG TERM... (Monday night through Saturday) Issued at 1241 AM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Atlantic high pressure will continue to linger over the peninsula of Florida which will keep a persistent southeasterly to easterly flow over the area. Afternoon sea breezes will continue to be a feature of the forecast each day as well. Atmospheric moisture recovery through the week could permit increasing convective coverage and allow some heat index values over the east coast metro to reach into the triple digits as well. One feature to monitor is the potential of a tropical upper tropospheric trough (or TUTT) which could slowly traverse the Bahamas during the week and knock on South Florida`s doorstep Friday into the weekend if a trough does not amplify south enough over the Atlantic to absorb the TUTT. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 128 AM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Increasing SHRA developing across Atlantic waters may bring brief bouts of MVFR cigs to area terminals this morning before activity shifts inland after 17z. Light southeasterly flow will enhance after daybreak with a gulf breeze forecast at KAPF between 17-19z. SHRA/TSRA may impact KAPF after 18z tomorrow as activity focuses across the western half of the region. Flow will lessen after sunset but remain out of a light southeasterly direction along the east coast through the end of the TAF period. && .MARINE... Issued at 1241 AM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Generally moderate SE winds are expected to continue into early portions of the week. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible each day across South Florida`s coastal waters. Any thunderstorm that forms may produce periods of gusty winds and rough seas. && .BEACHES... Issued at 1241 AM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025 A persistent southeasterly to easterly wind flow will allow for an elevated rip current risk to continue for a good portion of the week. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
