.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 250 PM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025

Monday-Saturday...Little change to the weather pattern this week.
The mid-level ridge is anticipated to remain over Florida, and
even build a little stronger by Wed. The low level ridge axis will
remain draped across north/central Florida. Some drier air will
work its way into east central Florida from the southeast, and in
conjunction with the suppression aloft, will help to limit shower
and storm chances across the Treasure Coast and around Lake
Okeechobee. Greater moisture across northern portions of the
forecast area combined with the daily sea breeze collision will
allow for a 40 to 50 percent chance for showers and storms each
afternoon. Late week, the mid level ridging is forecast to break
down slightly which should lead to a slight increasing in rain and
storm chances across all of east central Florida heading into the
weekend.

With the mid-level ridge remaining in place across the peninsula,
and rain chances lowering, temperatures are anticipated to warm
through the work week. Highs reach the low to mid 90s, with peak
heat indices in the 100 to 105 range. A moderate to major HeatRisk
is forecast across east central Florida each afternoon. Overnight
temperatures remain fairly consistent in the low to mid 70s
through the period.

.MARINE...
Issued at 250 PM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025

An area of high pressure at the sfc and aloft is forecast to
remain in place over the next several days across the local
Atlantic waters, with south to southeast winds prevailing each
day. Winds pick up each afternoon behind the development of the
east coast sea breeze, but generally remain between 10 to 15
knots, becoming lighter and even variable at times into the
overnight hours. Generally favorable boating conditions are
anticipated through the period, with seas remaining between 2 to 3
feet. While weather conditions are expected to remain mostly dry
across the local waters, isolated to scattered showers and storms
cannot be fully ruled out (20 to 40 percent chance through the
period).

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFs)
Issued at 140 PM EDT Sun Jun 15 2025

Winds have shifted east-southeast at most coastal terminals as
the sea breeze begins to move inland. South winds are forecast
around 5-10 kts at interior TAF sites ahead of the sea breeze.
Winds become breezy at times along the Treasure Coast with peak
gusts around 20 kts this afternoon. VCSH/VCTS is included from
TIX/ISM northward with convection dominantly driven by the sea
breeze and boundary collisions. TSRA TEMPO at DAB from 18Z/21Z.
Otherwise, primary TSRA impacts are forecast late in the day with
TEMPOs at MCO/SFB/ISM/LEE from 21Z/24Z. VFR outside of convection.
