.UPDATE...
Issued at 955 PM EDT Tue Mar 26 2024
Mid level clouds are working across the state from southwest to

better align with the latest guidance, but no wholesale changes
were made overall. A southeast breeze will continue, around 10 to
15 mph closer to the coast and at or below 10 mph inland. The 23z
XMR sounding indicates a rather dry atmosphere above 850mb, and
without much change expected in moisture overnight, a dry forecast
continues. Overall, it is a pleasant night across east-central
Florida.
