DISCUSSION
Issued at 535 AM EDT Thu Jun 25 2026 Another warm and humid morning is underway across the Florida Keys as a broad subtropical ridge remains across the region. Surface observations across the island chain indicate temperatures are in the mid 80s with dewpoints holding in the mid 70s, maintaining a muggy airmass. Along the Reef, marine locations are reporting east to southeast winds at near 10 knots. KBYX radar has been detecting various scattered showers with some isolated thunderstorms for a majority of the night into the early morning hours. Sufficient moisture will allow for the continuous showers here and there but overall coverage will remain fairly isolated to scattered with our rain chances being 20% for today. Overall, little change is expected in the weather with conditions resembling those that have been observed across the Keys throughout most of this past week as high pressure remains in place.
MARINE
Issued at 535 AM EDT Thu Jun 25 2026 No watches, warnings, or advisories are currently in effect for the Florida Keys waters. From synopsis, a broad high pressure system centered over the North Atlantic will continue to extend westward to the Florida Peninsula through early next week. The high will fluctuate in strength and location, while maintaining east to southeast breezes. This will support bouts of light to gentle breezes becoming gentle to moderate at times, mainly in the overnight hours.
AVIATION
(06Z TAFS) Issued at 535 AM EDT Thu Jun 25 2026 VFR conditions will prevail at both EYW and MTH through the TAF period. At this time showers are not expected to impact either terminal therefore no mention of VCSH. Near surface winds will be southeasterly at 5 to 10 knots.
