Weekend Haze
Posted by Vivian Gonzalez
Weekend Weather: The weekend haze continues and seasonably hot conditions as well. We have high pressure in control and it will provide for stable weather. This area of high pressure encompasses a large region from the Southeast United States to the Western Atlantic Ocean, which helping to draw in the Saharan dust responsible for the hazy skies.
Over the weekend look for strong sunshine and mostly dry conditions as rain chances remain low. The only type of moisture we will typically see is some early coastal showers and each afternoon the sea breeze collisions to form isolated inland storms... Temperature wise, expect highs to range in the low 90s with the feels like temperatures between 100-105 degrees.
By the middle of next week, computer models are indicating that high pressure will weaken just enough to probably bring in some tropical moisture. As the weekend rounds up and new forecast packages come in we will be adjusting next weeks rain chances accordingly. For now, enjoy this nice summer weekend.
Tropical Update: All is quiet.
Have a wonderful weekend and make it a safe one!

Still On Flood Watch

Wet and Soggy Work Week
Clouds with hints of sunshine will be the routine over the next couple of days. The push of more warm, moist air will amp up the instability over South Florida tonight bringing a chance for heavy rain. A Flood Watch is in effect for the Miami-Dade and Broward Counties until 10pm. An area of low pressure sweeping to the north will keep a chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms at the start of the weekend.
