Crossing fingers and toes....
I didn't get any rain on the last cold front. That does look pretty nasty to the North of us. Knock on wood...voodoo-hex-indian-rain-dance... |

There is a good chance of more rain starting on Friday and for a week. Rain chances going up in our typical April/May Spring drought....I'll take it!

Fri night-Sat night...As convection starts to wind down Fri evening
across northern Lake and northern Volusia counties, a cold front across east central FL will slowly start to move to the north with no significant rainfall for the rest of the night. On Sat, as the front moves further north, moisture will also push north and only Lake, Seminole and Volusia counties will see shower and lightning storms, mainly in the afternoon. Saturday highs will reach the mid 80s towards the north and lower 90s towards Osceola southward to Okeechobee county and Treasure Coast. Min temperatures on Fri night will be in the lower-mid 60s. Sun-Thu (previous discussion modified)...Absent of any real synoptic push, the front relents to parallel upper flow and remains across north-central Florida through mid-week, before the models hint at it making any move. The front will provide an alley of moisture to plume and concentrate from the Gulf of Mexico setting up a multi-day period of generous rain. Frontal location will adjust slightly south across the heart of the peninsula to offer several rounds of potentially heavy rainfall further supported by a series of minor waves along the boundary. Prolonged rain on tap for all locations, but most likely for the area north of Orlando and the Cape on Sunday, then overspreading much of east central Florida though mid- week. The front is depicted by GFS and ECMWF to push south of the local area late Wed, possibly reducing showers coverage from north to south on Thu. Max temperatures on Sunday will realize lower 80s north forecast area to lower 90s south forecast area. Then, increased cloud cover along with likely showers/storms will keep max temperatures dialed-back into the 70s to lower 80s. Min temperatures continue in the 60s. |

This is a classic heavy rain synoptic setup across the central FL
peninsula this week. A stalled surface frontal boundary in a saturated environment, with strong mid-level moisture transport and favorable upper-level dynamical support/divergence. Numerous rounds of heavy rainfall are expected, and some areas will experience training of heavy showers leading to minor flooding. |

Here we are in the typical dry month of May. Looks like today the high temps will hit 90F. A high predicted to be 95F on Wednesday. A cool front thursday with a chance of afternoon storms Wed/Thur and slight cool off friday/saturday into the low 80s. Hope we can get some moisture out of this. 90F+ temps probably after this last 'cool' front for the foreseeable future.
from NWS Melbourne: Hot temperatures will be the focus both Tuesday and Wednesday; deep southerly flow will lead to high temps well into the 90s areawide, approaching the mid 90s and potential record high temperatures across the interior. Lows will also remain well above average in the upper 60s to lower 70s. Thursday-Friday...A messier pattern is in store for the latter half of the week, as a strong late-season cold front makes its way towards the FL peninsula. The mid-level ridge over the Caribbean erodes by Thursday, allowing for the cold front with upper support sink into the region. By daybreak Thursday, the surface ridge axis has retreated well south of the area, yielding to the approaching boundary. Rain chances will increase quickly through the day on Thursday, ranging from 60-70% north of Orlando, 50-60% for areas south. Latest GFS run takes a slightly drier option on Thursday, ramping up coverage after sunset, but now the ECM slightly faster and wetter, passing the front into south FL prior to midnight. Regardless, can expect a wet and stormy Thu/Thu night, with temps aloft dropping to near -10C and forecast CAPE values above 1200J/kg, a few stronger storms cannot be ruled out in the mid to late afternoon. With the change in the GFS, have raised PoPs Thursday night to account for a slower moving front, with 30-40% chance from the Treasure Coast to the Kissimmee River, tapering to 20% for areas north. By Friday morn, the ECM clears the front through the area across the FL Straits, but the GFS holds on to a wet pattern across the south through the mid afternoon. Have adjusted rain chances accordingly to keep a 20-30% lingering chance for the Treasure Coast, likely clearing prior to noon. As expected, southwest winds Thursday will veer west and then northwest to north by Friday morning, signaling the frontal passage, and high pressure building into the area for the weekend. Highs on Thursday will climb to the upper 80s to lower 90s, with lows dropping overnight to the mid to upper 60s. By Friday, most of the area should start to feel the effects of the frontal passage, so high temps will be a few degrees cooler in the mid to upper 80s areawide. Friday night lows will receive the most notable influence from the front, finally returning to near normal values in the low to mid 60s, with a few spots in Lake and Volusia counties dropping to the upper 50s. Weekend...This weekend will be much drier, as high pressure builds in across the Deep South, dropping PW to 0.5-0.8" on Saturday. The surface high will quickly exit from coastal Carolina into the Atlantic, returning winds to southeasterly and pulling moisture from the Caribbean back towards FL. This will increase rain chances only slightly on Sunday, mainly in the vicinity of Lake Okeechobee. Temperatures will begin to rebound this weekend, climbing from the mid to upper 80s on Sat to the lower 90s by Sunday. Lower dewpoints later this week, however, should keep a damper on the "mugginess" at least through Saturday, leading to a pleasant start to the weekend. |

Maybe some rain on Thursday...and, this:
A weak cold front is also forecast to cross the Central FL peninsula late Thursday into Friday morning. |

Thursday-Friday...A large and energetic trough will swing across the
eastern CONUS and Florida late this week, bringing an increasing likelihood of showers and storms. A weak cold front is also forecast to cross the Central FL peninsula late Thursday into Friday morning. Models indicate moisture substantially increases Thursday with PWATs of 1.6-1.8" or possibly greater, providing plenty of fuel for numerous showers and lightning storms. Rain chances have been bumped up to 60 percent areawide on Thursday, with convection likely to linger into the evening hours until the front moves through. Additionally, thermodynamic parameters and favorable steering level winds will lead to few strong storms, with small hail and gusty winds possible. Drier air clears out any lingering showers across the I-4 corridor by sunrise on Friday, though likely won`t clear the entire area until late Friday afternoon. Isolated showers and perhaps a lightning storm or two will be possible along the Space and Treasure Coasts, where rain chances of 20-30 percent remain in place for Friday. |

I got a good dosage Friday night. I think there is a direct correlation on my complaining on this forum about no rain and me getting rain.
Better than an Indian Rain Dance? |

Keep those forum complaints coming. It looks like we should get some more rain starting Sunday into next week. Thank God, I am tired of dragging the hose around the yard.

Uh, the rainy season obviously hit us the last couple days! Melbourne recorded record rain yesterday at 2.19 inches. I've gotten rain every day since. I'll be quiet now on rain. And, btw, I'm only happy when it rains!
