.SYNOPSIS...

Atlantic high pressure will continue to extend its axis westward
across the Florida peninsula through early next week, with this
feature maintaining a prevailing offshore wind flow across our
local waters. Showers and thunderstorms will develop inland early
each afternoon and will progress eastward across our local waters
during the mid to late afternoon hours each day. Strong to severe
storms will be possible late in the afternoon hours on Sunday and
Monday, especially across the Georgia waters. Stronger storms will
be capable of producing briefly strong wind gusts, frequent
lightning strikes and torrential downpours. A frontal boundary
will stall to the northwest of our area towards midweek, with
Atlantic high pressure then expected to lift northward late next
week.
