.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 551 AM EDT Thu Apr 25 2024

A brief period of MVFR visibilities will be possible through
around 12Z at VQQ and GNV. Confidence was not high enough to 
indicate a sustained period of MVFR conditions at this time.
Otherwise, periods of broken ceilings around 6,000 feet will be
possible at SSI today, with this cloud cover then expanding 
southward to the northeast FL terminals this afternoon and evening.
Light westerly surface winds early this morning will increase to 
5-10 knots before 15Z. The Atlantic and Gulf coast sea breezes 
will develop towards noon and will push inland more quickly 
than prior days, resulting in surface winds shifting to westerly 
at GNV following the passage of the Gulf coast sea breeze, with 
sustained speeds increasing to around 10 knots towards 20Z. 
Surface winds will shift to easterly at SGJ following the passage 
of the Atlantic sea breeze boundary shortly after noon, with 
sustained speeds increasing to 10-15 knots during the early to mid
afternoon hours. Surface winds elsewhere will shift to easterly 
or southeasterly during the early to mid afternoon hours, with 
speeds increasing to around 10 knots, except at GNV, where this 
wind shift will likely not occur until around sunset as the 
Atlantic and Gulf sea breeze boundaries collide around U.S. 
Highway 301. Surface winds will then shift to southeasterly or 
southerly by the mid-evening hours at the regional terminals, with
speeds diminishing to 5-10 knots.
