Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Melbourne FL
1042 AM EDT Wed May 29 2019

.DISCUSSION...Morning soundings showing PW values of a inch or 
less across central Florida. In fact the PW value of 0.66" on the 
12Z TBW sounding is the lowest on record for this day, according 
to the SPC sounding climatology website. The strong ridge aloft
that remains in place and this very dry airmass will continue the
hot and dry weather pattern across the region. Ridge axis at the
surface remains across central Florida, which will allow for
earlier and faster inland movement of the east coast sea breeze
south of the Cape, and slightly later development and slower 
inland progression of this boundary to the north. This will lead 
to max temperatures along the coast ranging from the upper 
80s/near 90 from Melbourne southward and low/mid 90s north. Highs 
across the interior will again reach the mid-upper 90s this 
afternoon, and heat index values will approach around 100 degrees.
Forecast remains on track with no changes planned.

.AVIATION...VFR conditions next 24 hours. 

&&

.MARINE...A light to moderate S-SE breeze expected over the waters
this afternoon with speeds around 5-10 knots, increasing to 10-15
knots near the coast as sea breeze moves inland. Seas ranging from
2-3 feet.
