So much for pattern change in FL

[boca]

We can't even get a cold front to make it thru the state.GFS is true garbage why do forecasters rely on that model it just makes no sense.

Unless the pattern actually changes we are due for a long desert like conditions here in atleast S FL. The first brush fire was reported in West Palm Beach and its only January. The fire season doesn't start until March or April in FL. We are totally screwed.

NWS JAX

.LONG TERM...THE UPPER JET WILL REMAIN NORTH OF THE AREA KEEPING THE
COLDEST AIR FROM REACHING THE CWA.

When cold air is on the move, nothing can stop it including big warm air masses. For the entire month, a warm high pressure system has dominated the weather throughout the southeastern states producing temperatures 10 to 20 degrees above normal on a daily basis. Later this week, the reign of warmth comes to an end. A huge mass of cold air pushing down from the north will litterly flatten the warm air mass that has resided over the Southeast for days. The end result is quite clear; much colder weather from Louisiana to the Carolinas by the weekend.


LET'S HOPE AND PRAY IT COMES FURTHER SOUTH.

What happened to my forecast for a cool weekend? Bah humbug! Now its forecast to be in the seventies. Is this a delay and is the cold air missing central Florida all together.

We're gonna burn up like '98 .

Relax. Nothing of the sort is going to happen. No one is going to Burn and this won't be a repeat of 1998. UNLESS La Nina develops in APR-MAY-JUN. And right now I dont think thats going to happen.

The only problem with those maps is it is the GFS. I said on an early post the front will probably make it through S. Florida. As usual the GFS is up to a change and has it going through the straits:

Regardless of whether or not the frontal boundary makes it into the Straits, it seems quite clear that the true colder air will remain well north of us.

Since last night, we've had off/on fast moving showers on the southeasterly flow - very tropical conditions.

dont ever mention that. I hated that summer. at one point, Jacksonville was surrounded by fires. The whole freakin state was just one big fire. Was not a fun year.
