Brutal Heat Wave Bakes Florida

Florida has already experienced 10 days of hot, dry weather.
At least 10 days to 2-weeks of hotter and drier weather are in the forecast.

A prolonged heat wave is forecast to bake the Florida peninsula for the foreseeable future.  That's right.  No end to this exceptional heat and dry is forecast at this time.

As the heat wave builds in the southeastern USA over the upcoming Memorial Day weekend heat records dating to the 1800s will likely fall.

Record Southeast USA Heat Wave May 2019 (dark orange to red colors)

Temperatures are forecast to exceed 100° for much of inland Central Florida in the coming 10 days and no rain is forecast.

The heat isn't limited to Florida, to our north the weather will turn increasingly hot and dry

In what has already been a warmer-and-drier-than-normal May across Florida, temperatures will take a notable turn hotter through the end of May.

High temperatures are already 5-10° F. above normal, generally in the mid-90°s across peninsular Florida.

A dome of very hot and very dry air builds over the southeast USA late May 2019. 
The high pressure dome is forecast to expand and grow in intensity (red color on map)

Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa, Tallahassee to Pensacola and everywhere between will experiences highs in the upper 90°s to lower 100°s.

An anomalous dome of high pressure will strengthen and position itself over the entire southeast USA, promoting the hot, dry weather.

Every afternoon the weather is hotter and the lake level is lower as extreme evaporation has begun in response to the extremely hot and dry weather.

There won't be much relief in Florida lakes or at the beach as winds retreat to near calm by Memorial Day (May 27).  On more remote beaches (like Canaveral National Seashore in Volusia and Brevard Counties) beach goers might find conditions intolerably hot and buggy.  When seabreeze winds die down swarms of biting flies and mosquitoes migrate seaward, descending on unsuspecting beach goers.

More dry weather forecast through end of May 2019 for Florida
