1st day of 2013

Posted by Vivian Gonzalez

On this 1st day of 2013 we are off to a great start. We are seeing partly cloudy skies with warmer winds off of the ocean. This is due to a weakening area of high pressure. Luckily the air remains dry and it will do so until Wednesday. However, come Thursday night into Friday morning we could be in for some changes due to a developing winter storm currently over the nations midsection. While the snow and rain tracks across the Midwest and Northeast in the next few days, the tail end of the cold front will slide through South Florida. Ahead we could see some isolated showers.

Are we going to receive cold air? No. This front will either fall apart as moves through South Florida or before it gets here with no cooling expected.

Have a wonderful New Year South Florida and make it a great one!

Memorial day Weekend

Memorial Day Weekend   Memorial Day weekend has become the unofficial start of summer, but its true meaning is to remember the service men and women who gave their lives for our nation. So as you are enjoying the freedoms they died for.... say a little prayer for them this Monday.   

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.
