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.

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. 

Low rain chance for now

Dad's day weekend was nice if you had outdoor activities planned and the start of the week is just the same. A low rain chance is expected on this Monday. We have a strong area of high pressure in control and if we see any showers or storms they will form well inland due to an East-Southeast breeze. However, seasonal chances are expected from Tuesday through Thursday. Originally the thinking was that we were going to tap into some tropical moisture associated with a disturbance (tropical wave) in the Northwestern Caribbean Sea, but it seems like the majority of it will be suppressed to the South. We will be monitoring moisture levels carefully. For now, only a 30-40% chance of rain is expected through Thursday.

Sunny & Hot Father's Day Weekend

Looking like summer and feeling like summer.

Summer doesn't begin for another week or so, but it sure feels like it. We are expecting mostly sunny conditions both Saturday and Sunday with highs in the low 90's, and only a slight chance for inland rain every day.  Wishing all the great Dads a very wonderful Father's Day!!!

Summer-like for the Weekend

Summer-like pattern for the Weekend

The spotty rain and rumbling thunderstorms over South Florida on Thursday afternoon have died down, but we could still see an isolated thunderstorm or two Thursday night. The southerly air flow that is pumping in tropical moisture will shift gears as a front passes through north Florida into the next couple of days. This will bring a surge of warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico sparking a warming trend. Friday will bring near record heat teamed up with chances of late morning and afternoon storms. This will also be the case for Father's Day weekend before better chances of storms at the start of the work week.
