Peak Hurricane Season...
Today marks the 2012 Atlantic Peak Hurricane Season. We've had 13 named storms with 1 major hurricane. We are watching 3 areas in the Atlantic.
Tropical Storm Leslie moving away from Bermuda could cause a threat to Newfoundland in the days to come. The National Hurricane Center has issued a Hurricane Watch and Tropical Storm Watch for portions of Newfoundland.
Hurricane Michael is staying over the open waters of the Atlantic and will Not be a threat to land.
And the last area is an area of low pressure which by the afternoon could be our next tropical storm or depression. The NHC is giving this area a 90% chance of tropical cyclone development in the next 48 hours.
The local forecast is under the influence of a very weak frontal boundary located over Central Fl. As this front slowly pushes south this will increase our chance of showers by the afternoon. This unsettled weather pattern will be around till mid-week. By then we will have high pressure build over the area providing for very breezy conditions.
Have a great day!

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.

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

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.
