Some Changes

Posted by Brent Cameron

On the heels of a sometimes-stormy weekend, the start of the work week will feature some improvement.   Lately, deep tropical moisture has been streaming directly into south Florida making for unsettled conditions.  That moisture is now breaking-up and drier air is arriving. 

High pressure, coming from the western Atlantic Ocean, will be our primary weather-maker on Monday.   Light, southerly winds will still account for a lot of humidity.   Any random storms that flare-up will be from the daily sea breeze boundary... so you may still encounter an isolated storm during the mid-day time frame.  Since moisture levels are dropping, we don't expect numerous storms (like we saw over the weekend). 

The real "wild card" this week involves a weak tropical wave in the Caribbean Sea.  The wave (very disorganized) includes remnants from the former tropical depression 7.   It's moving generally westward and spreading some thunderstorms over several island nations in the Caribbean.  The associated moisture is likely to remain south of Cuba... especially if high pressure holds its ground during the middle of the week.   As a result of the Atlantic high, it's doubtful that we'll tap into much (if any) of the tropical moisture with the wave.   If all goes as planned, the wave and majority of storms will move toward Cuba and extend southward, on Wednesday.

The HEAT Continues

Posted by Vivian Gonzalez

The "HEAT" Continues South Florida. High temperatures expected to range in the low 90s with the feel's like temperatures in the triple digits. Summer officially starts on Friday and we've been feeling the "HEAT" for a while now. This is due to steamy winds from the South as there is an area of high pressure centered in the Western Atlantic Ocean extending into the Gulf of Mexico. As far as rain chances are concerned, we will have typical chances each afternoon through Friday of seeing spotty inland storms. By the weekend, we could be dealing with a few more showers, but still feeling the Summer "HEAT." Temperature reading will be normal.

Super Moon

It's back. The Super-Moon. It will take place this Friday at moonrise. Hopefully Mother nature will cooperate. There is a slight chance for showers on Friday. The moon should rise at 6:30pm.

Feeling the HEAT

We are going to be feeling the Heat once again this afternoon. Summer officially begins on Friday and wouldn't you know it... it's started a few weeks early for us with temperature reading a few degrees above where we should be for this time of year. The weather so far has been great and outside of a spotty inland storm today and Thursday that is basically it. On Friday, we could see some more moisture around.

Tropical Depression #2

Posted by Vivian Gonzalez

Tropical depression Two made landfall over Belize Monday night, with gusty winds and heavy rain. The main threat over the next day or so over Belize, Northern Honduras, Southern Yucatan and Guatemala will be rain. Flash flooding over mountainous areas will be likely as 6 inches of rain are expected in the next 48 hours.
