Weekend Outlook

Posted by Vivian Gonzalez

South Florida we are under the influence of high pressure that should keep conditions warm and quiet through the weekend. However, I am leaving the chance of seeing a few coastal showers due to the fact we have a steady ocean breeze in place. Temperature readings should soar into the middle 80s by Sunday... so outside of it being hot, it should be nice this weekend considering we have so many events taking place.

Where the weather will be busy and not so nice is around the Northeast this weekend as a winter storm will produce gusty winds and heavy snows. Most of the computer models showing that about a foot of snow or more could be possible between Vermont and New Hampshire in the next 48 hours.

Have a wonderful weekend South Florida and make it a safe one!

Tropical Depression #2

Posted by Vivian Gonzalez

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.
