(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 202 AM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024

VFR conditions will prevail at the regional terminals. Periods of
scattered to broken stratocumulus ceilings of 5,000-6,000 feet are
expected through Friday evening. An easterly wind surge on Friday
afternoon and evening could advect a few light showers or
sprinkles towards the SGJ terminal, but confidence was too low to
include in the TAFs at this time. Light winds overnight 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 on
Friday night.
