...WARMER WITH A RETURN OF MOISTURE...

.UPDATE...

Surface high pressure across the Carolinas brought easterly flow
over the local area today, with a gradual return of low level
moisture as evidenced on the 00Z JAX RAOB below 900 mb. A few low
level cumulus may skirt near the FL Atlantic coast toward sunrise,
otherwise increasing cirrus clouds will continue to stream
overhead from the west making for mostly clear skies tonight. 
Winds will decouple inland, where lows will generally range in the
lower 50s with more mild temperatures near the Atlantic coast and
St. Johns River basin in the lower 60s. Some shallow ground fog 
is possible especially across SE GA east of highway 301 under 
lighter low level winds (closer to surface ridge) and where 
moisture advected inland today, however, significant fog
development is not expected. 

&&

.AVIATION...

VFR conditions through 00Z Wed. Easterly winds will prevail,
generally 10 kts or less after sunrise. Shallow ground fog is
possible at CRG, JAX & VQQ, but is not expected to be deep enough
to cause restrictions. 

&&

.MARINE...

Quiet conditions over the waters tonight with winds east around
10-15 kts and seas generally 2-4 ft. Tranquil conditions continue
Wed, then south winds increase late Thursday in advance of a
potent cold front expected to cross the waters Friday. Gusts to
gale force possible. 

Rip Currents: Moderate risk Wednesday.
