.DISCUSSION...

Tonight...Clear skies with light north to northwest winds expected
as temperatures drop to slightly below normal values. Rural
interior spots will drop into the upper 40s, with low to mid 50s
elsewhere - except along the barrier islands which should stay in
the upper 50s to low 60s.

Friday...(Previous Discussion) Tomorrow will be rated a "10/10"
for March days, with high pressure building over the area keeping
air dry and temperatures pleasant. Rain chances near zero as the
mid level trough exits east into the Atlantic, with clear skies,
although a few diurnal cumulus will be possible. Highs will remain
near average in the mid 70s.

.AVIATION...

VFR conditions prevail tonight into Friday.

&&

.MARINE...

Tonight-Friday...Improving marine and boating conditions this
evening, thus the Small Craft Advisory has been allowed to expire.
Small craft should exercise caution tonight in the Gulf Stream
and offshore waters south of the Cape due to north winds 15 knots
and seas up to 6 feet. Elsewhere winds are 10-15 knots and seas
3-5 feet.

High pressure builds across Florida tomorrow causing winds to
decrease further and become onshore in the afternoon. North winds
in the morning become NE/ENE at 10-15 knots in the afternoon. Seas
3-4 feet in the afternoon.
