.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1202 AM EDT Fri Sep 19 2025
Surface high pressure to the north has built over west central
and southwest Florida with drier air aloft advecting over the
region. This will reduce the chance of showers/thunderstorms
through the weekend with predominately dry very warm conditions
expected each day.
Early next week, the area of high pressure will begin to retreat
with boundary layer flow becoming east allowing deep layer
moisture to push back over the forecast area...with an increasing
chance for afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Highest pops will
be over southwest Florida in region of best available deep layer
moisture...with pops gradually decreasing from south to north. This
pattern will hold through mid week.

Issued at 1202 AM EDT Fri Sep 19 2025
VFR conditions are expected for the remainder of tonight and on

Issued at 1202 AM EDT Fri Sep 19 2025
Primarily east to northeast winds expected through early next
week remaining below cautionary levels each day. The offshore flow

3 feet across the outer central waters over the weekend.

Issued at 1202 AM EDT Fri Sep 19 2025
No fire weather hazards are expected as sufficient low level
moisture will keep minimum afternoon relative humidity values
above critical levels each day.
