Thanksgiving Day

Posted by Phil Ferro

* Brush fire weather watch Thursday afternoon *

* High risk of RIP currents *

* Small Craft Advisory through Thursday evening *

We have had beautiful weather across South Florida due to high pressure that has become stationary over the Southern Gulf Coast. The pleasant weather is expected to remain through the Thanksgiving holiday as another cold front moves south from the Northern Plain States on Saturday allowing for the northerly wind flow as well as the dry and cooler temperatures to continue for a few more days.

What to expect for Thanksgiving:

A breezy day with sunny skies and afternoon highs in the middle 70s.

Dinner Time:

Pleasantly cool with temperatures in the low 60s.

White Hot Long Weekend

A white hot day is underway... Today we will have a very similar situation with high temperatures reaching the low 90s. However, it will feel hotter because the humidity levels are high. Record heat is possible in Miami. The forecast is calling for a high of 92 degrees, old record is 94 set back in 1989.

2013 NHC Forecast   And so it begins. With the release of NOAA's seasonal outlook, I officially ramp up the Tropical Blog for 2013. This is what NOAA says we can expect for the 6-month season, which gets underway June 1.  

It's Official...

It shouldn't come as a surprise, (but yes) the start of the south Florida "rainy season" has begun!   According to the National Weather Service, the start date officially began on Saturday May 18, close to the median start of May 20.  Our rainy season lasts for 5-months, ending around the third week of October. 

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.
