.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFs)
Issued at 140 AM EDT Wed Jul 3 2024

VFR expected thru much of the TAF. Isolated SHRA cannot be ruled
out along the coast, mainly from MLB south thru 12z. Light
southerly flow or otherwise variable wind will resume around 10 kt
or less after 15z, backing ESE behind the ECSB. Again, iso/sct
SHRA/TSRA will form along the inland-moving breeze, with the
highest coverage across inland sites after 19z-21z. Activity is
expected to wane after 02z Thu. Brief MVFR/IFR conds may accompany
the most organized convection.

.UPDATE...
Issued at 835 PM EDT Tue Jul 2 2024

Current-Overnight...There will be some ISOLD-WDLY SCT showers and
lightning storms around into at least mid-evening due to boundary
collisions and ample moisture. Threats include lightning strikes,
brief gusty winds, and locally heavy downpours. Much of the
overnight should be dry, though coastal locations may still be under
an ISOLD threat for convection. SERLY winds will become light and
perhaps more variable over the interior. PCloudy skies are forecast
with muggy conditions and mins in the M-U70s.

.MARINE...
Issued at 341 PM EDT Tue Jul 2 2024

The Atlc high pressure ridge axis will lift north of the waters
tonight and produce a more steady onshore flow Wednesday. A very
weak pressure gradient will exist late week then a light south
should resume this weekend. The daily sea breeze circulation
will locally enhance the E to SE winds near the coast each
afternoon 10-12 knots. Seas 2 FT or less near the coast, up to 3
FT offshore for the remainder of the week. A few showers and
storms are forecast, especially during the overnight hours
offshore and nearshore/intracoastal during the morning and early
afternoon. Overall, favorable conditions will persist for both
offshore and inshore boaters.
