.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 600 AM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024

Periods of IFR visibilities are expected at VQQ through around
sunrise. Otherwise, VFR conditions will prevail through at least
08Z at the regional terminals. Periods of scattered to broken 
stratocumulus ceilings of 5,000-6,000 feet are expected through 
tonight. An easterly wind surge later this afternoon and evening 
could advect a few light showers or sprinkles towards the SGJ 
terminal, but confidence was too low to include anything other
than vicinity shower coverage in the SGJ TAF towards 09Z Saturday
at this time. A period of MVFR ceilings could accompany this
shower activity that will be approaching SGJ during the predawn
hours on Saturday. Light southeasterly surface winds this morning
will shift to easterly by 16Z, with sustained surface speeds 
increasing to around 15 knots at the SSI and SGJ coastal 
terminals, CRG, and JAX by 20Z, with speeds elsewhere increasing 
to 10-15 knots. Easterly surface winds will then subside to 5-10 
knots by 01Z Saturday at the inland terminals, while sustained 
speeds remain around 10 knots at the coastal terminals through the
overnight hours tonight.
