.KEY MESSAGES...
Updated at 715 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2026

 - Moderate coastal flooding is expected with each high tide
   cycle. Major coastal flooding is possible late this weekend
   into early next week.
 
 - Heavy rain and isolated flash flooding is possible across the
   east coast metros today through Monday.

 - Strong winds, with gusts over 35 mph are possible today through
   Monday night.

 - Dangerous marine and beach conditions are expected through the
   middle of the week.

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Monday)
Issued at 324 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2026

A complex weather pattern is set up for today and into early this 
coming week as an omega block ridge over the central U.S. creates a 
primarily meridional flow pattern with steady northerly flow in the 
mid-levels and upper-levels of the atmosphere. An elongated north-to-
south trough is set up just east of this ridge block over the 
western Atlantic and extending into the Atlantic coastline across 
the Eastern Seaboard. Additionally, this results in surface high 
pressure underneath this upper-level setup being stout as well, with 
a strong pressure gradient setting up that is expected to bring 
increasingly gusty winds to South Florida. The surface high will be 
centered in the Northeast U.S. with a surface trough off the coast. 
This pattern could lead to us approaching Wind Advisory criteria on 
Monday, especially along the east coastline, but probabilities are 
not high enough currently to result in enough confidence to issue an 
advisory yet. Regardless, sustained NE winds of 20-25 mph and gusts 
of 30-35 mph are likely and occasional gusts to 40 mph are certainly 
possible. 

In terms of convective potential today, the main drivers will be 
vorticity advection from the nearby elongated trough and 
speed/friction convergence created by strong NE flow rushing into 
less strong winds over land. This type of convergence can lead to 
numerous pop up showers and storms, but typically not as long 
lasting or tall as in a typical low level convergence setup. 
Nevertheless, expect scattered to numerous showers today primarily 
across the east coast metro with some embedded storms. With how 
scattered convection is expected to be along with the brisk flow 
leading to fast-moving showers and storms, concerns are low for 
excessive rainfall across the region. Additionally, deep convection 
is typically hard to come by in these types of setups. However, an 
isolated occurrence or two for localized flooding still cannot be 
ruled out due to training activity, but the risk overall across the 
region is not high.

As we move into Monday, most of the ensemble members and short range 
model guidance show the deepest moisture advecting offshore and thus 
there will be an even lesser risk for convective and hydro hazards 
on Monday. Some level of scattered shower activity is still likely, 
but less than today and once again any convection will be fast 
moving. High temperatures are expected in the low to mid 80s for 
most areas with parts of Southwest Florida reaching the upper 80s.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Monday night through Saturday)
Issued at 324 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2026

While not much of a legend down here as it is up in the Great Lakes, 
it appears that the gales of November may indeed come early for 
South Florida. Breezy 25 to 35 mph wind gusts will continue to be 
common Monday night through Tuesday morning. Strong surface high 
pressure over the mid-Atlantic states will continue to induce a 
tight pressure gradient along the Florida Atlantic coast through the 
end of the week. As a result, breezy conditions will continue at 
least through Wednesday. As discussed in the short term 
discussion, whether a wind advisory will also be needed for the 
Monday night and Tuesday period is still up for debate. It seems 
that the most likely areas to see sustained winds of 30 mph or 
greater is along the immediate coasts of Broward, Dade, and Palm 
Beach counties. Probabilities for advisory criteria winds are only
at about 40%, so most areas will likely only see sustained winds 
of around 20 mph. Pressure gradients begin to relax near the 
middle of the week, which will finally lead to some calming of the
winds. However, surface high pressure along the eastern seaboard 
will keep the same overall pattern in place, with northeast winds
persisting into next weekend at around 10 to 15 mph.

Ensemble clusters are showing relatively good agreement regarding 
the upper level pattern heading into the middle of the week. A 
series of shortwave perturbations moving over the intermountain west 
will begin to flatten and steer high pressure over the Gulf and 
Deep South. Meanwhile, a cut off low over the Bahamas will begin 
to eject out into the Atlantic by Wednesday, which should allow 
for the weather to become a little less unsettled. As the mid-
level ridge begins to exert greater influence over South Florida,
chances of precipitation will decline and high temperatures look 
to climb back up into the upper 80s. The cut off low near the 
Bahamas will help transport some increased moisture into the 
northern Caribbean, with PWATs looking to climb to near 1.8 inches
over South Florida (if the systems stays close enough to our 
area). Overall, this northeasterly flow pattern will favor 
scattered showers and storms coming off of the Gulf Stream waters 
for most of the week. Lightning and locally heavy rainfall will be
the main threats, but there is currently no risk of excessive 
rainfall after Tuesday. A more typical sea breeze induced 
convective pattern will likely return once northeast winds weaken 
towards the end of the week.

The potential for moderate and major tidal flooding may continue 
during the middle portions of the week. This tidal flooding may also 
be exacerbated by coastal showers and strong northeast winds, which 
could lead to significant water rises along the far eastern metro 
areas. While the peak tides will be during the beginning to middle 
of the week, moderate coastal flooding may persist through the end 
of the week as we come out of this full moon phase.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 715 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2026

Mainly VFR conditions expected across all South Florida terminals
today except for brief periods of sub-VFR within showers and 
thunderstorms. A land breeze/NNW winds this morning across east 
coast terminals will veer to a NNE direction by around 13-14Z and
become quite gusty with peak gusts throughout much of the 
forecast period oscillating between 25 and 30 kts across all South
Florida terminals.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 324 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2026

Hazardous marine conditions will continue the rest of this weekend 
and into the middle of this coming week. Strong northeasterly winds 
will increase up to 25-35 kts by tonight and into early this week, 
with the strongest winds expected at Gale Force over the Atlantic 
waters. Scattered to numerous showers and storms are also expected 
to develop along the Atlantic over the next several days. Heavy 
rainfall, lightning, and locally higher seas will be a threat with 
any storm. Seas are currently forecast to peak around 6-9 feet in 
the Gulf and 10-14 feet across the Atlantic waters Sunday night into 
Monday. High seas and breezy conditions will persist through at 
least the middle of the week, before conditions finally start to 
relax during the end of the week.

&&

.BEACHES...
Issued at 324 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2026

A high risk of rip currents will persist for all Atlantic beaches 
through at least the middle of this week. Dangerous surf heights of 
10 to 12 feet may be possible for the Palm Beaches through at least 
Tuesday. 

Furthermore, strong onshore wind flow and high seas may 
combine with King Tides to increase the threat of coastal flooding 
along the Atlantic coast. Currently, it is expected that moderate 
flooding will occur through today, with potential to reach major 
flood stage on Monday and Tuesday. This situation will be assessed 
further, but for now a Coastal Flood Watch remains in effect for the 
Mon-Tue time frame as we continue to monitor the potential for major 
tidal flooding.
