Asset ID: SBI-300867779

Friday features mostly sunny skies with some mainly afternoon showers and storms on the mainland.  The Keys will see good sun, a few clouds, and maybe a shower in spots.  Highs on Friday will be near 90 degrees right at the coasts and in the Keys, while the rest of South Florida will reach the low 90s.  But it will feel about 10 degrees hotter everywhere, so stay hydrated and out of the sun.

Saturday will bring plenty of sun, a few clouds, and mostly afternoon storms to the mainland.  Look for mostly sunny skies in the Keys.  Saturday’s highs will be in the low 90s in the East Coast metro area and near 90 degrees along the Gulf Coast and in the Keys.

Sunday will feature mostly sunny skies and afternoon showers and storms on a gusty breeze in the East Coast metro area, while the Gulf Coast will see a sunny morning and some afternoon showers and storms.  The Keys will see good sun and a few clouds.  Sunday’s highs will be in the low 90s on the mainland and near 90 degrees in the Keys.

Monday will see a gusty breeze and a mix of sun, clouds, and afternoon showers and storms in the East Coast metro area.  The Gulf Coast will be sunny in the morning, with showers and storms developing along the Gulf Coast.  Look for mostly sunny skies in the Keys.  Monday’s highs will be in the low 90s on the mainland and near 90 degrees in the Keys.

Faith Based Events

Tuesday’s forecast calls for a mix of sun, showers, and storms on the mainland and mostly sunny skies in the Keys.  Highs on Tuesday will be in the low 90s on the mainland and mostly in the upper 80s in the Keys.

In the tropics, we’re watching two named systems, but we’re keeping a very close eye on a wave near Hispaniola that has a high chance of becoming a depression in the next day or so as it nears the Bahamas and skirts Florida’s Atlantic coast.  It’s not certain at this time what effects, if any, this system will have on South Florida.  But it’s always a good idea to review your hurricane plan, check your supplies, and pay close attention to this system over the weekend.  We still have more than two months left of the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season.
Tropical Storm Humberto is strengthening in the central Atlantic and is forecast to become a hurricane on Friday.  Early Thursday evening, Humberto was about 470 miles northeast of the northern Leeward Islands and was moving northwest at 6 miles per hour.  Maximum sustained winds were 60 miles per hour at that time. Humberto will bring rough seas and dangerous rip currents to portions of the U.S. coast, but it will not have direct impacts.
Far to the northeast, Gabrielle is now a post-tropical system that had 70 mile per hour winds early Thursday evening as it sped towards the Azores at 31 miles per hour.  Hurricane conditions are expected there into Friday morning.  Gabrielle is forecast to race across the Atlantic and affect Portugal on Sunday.
