Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Melbourne FL
1019 PM EDT Wed Oct 17 2018

.DISCUSSION...
Mostly east winds were observed early this evening across east
central Florida with temperatures around 80 degrees along the
coast and a few degrees cooler for the interior sites. Skies over
land were mostly clear while a few patches of low clouds were
seen from satellite imagery moving west over the Treasure Coast
coastal waters. But no precipitation was detected by radar.
Weather conditions will remain quiet overnight with a small
possibility of a few showers reaching the northern coastal cities
of Volusia County and its Atlantic waters by early morning.
Otherwise, low temperatures will drop to the low and mid 70s.

&&

.AVIATION...
Patchy fog development is possible again after 08Z tonight for
interior terminals and eastward to KDAB, reducing visibilities to
MVFR thru sunrise, but will hold off on mention in TAFs. Otherwise,
VFR persists.

&&

.MARINE...
East to southeast winds of 5 to 10 knots are expected overnight for
our northern waters (east of Volusia and Cape) and 10 to 15 knots
east of Treasure Coast. Conditions, however, will reverse late
Thursday as a weak front moves south. Winds will increase to 15 to
20 knots Thursday night and Friday across the waters east of
Volusia while the rest should remain below 15 knots. Keep this in
mind as seas will build to 5 to 7 feet Thursday night and Friday
for the northern waters and a Small Craft Advisory may be necessary.

.MLB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

AM...None.
