Watching strong storms

Posted by Phil Ferro

Weather Update: Palm Beach Police reported water in homes in Jupiter ( no specific area was mentioned ).  A Flash Flood warning is in effect for Northeastern Palm Beach coutny until 2 am. Radar estimates are now up to 7-10" within this area with very high rainfall rates continuing.

NWS Reports:

INDIANTOWN ROAD WAS NEARLY IMPASSABLE BETWEN A1A AND MAPLEWOOD DR.

WATER WAS COVERING THREE LANES AND TRAFFIC MOVING VERY SLOWLY.

PALM BEACH COUNTY STORM SPOTTER REPORTED THAT INDIANTOWN ROAD AT MILITARY TRAIL WAS DOWN TO ONE LANE WITH WATER

FLOWING OVER THE CURB AND INTO SOME OF THE PARKING LOTS.

We are still following a huge batch of rain in Eastern Gulf. At present speed it should not impact us tonight, but if it holds, it could impact The Keys - Dade & Broward  very early Wednesday morning.

Meanwhile we are following a front across Northern Florida. Since the front is slowing down, most of the heavy rain has slowed down as well and remains to our NW. If this persists, we will have a warm and mostly dry night.

Barry and the Wave

Posted by Brent Cameron

Wasn't there a musical group called Katrina and the Waves?  (I'm really dating myself by remembering them, I know).  Well, right now... in the tropics... we have Barry and a wave!   Tropical Storm Barry formed on Wednesday afternoon, becoming the Atlantic season's second named system.  The center of Barry will be moving into Mexico on Thursday with widespread rain over the southern states of Mexico.  At this point, it's a low-end tropical storm that's forecast to make landfall just north of Veracruz, Mexico.

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.

Feeling the HEAT

Posted by Vivian Gonzalez

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.
