Sun and Maybe a Storm, Watching the Tropics

Tuesday features plenty of sun on the mainland, but an afternoon shower or storm is possible in spots.  The Keys will see some sun, more clouds, and periods of showers and storms.  Expect an elevated risk of dangerous rip currents at the Atlantic beaches.  Highs on Tuesday will be in the mid-80s right at the Atlantic coast and in the Keys, while the rest of South Florida will reach the upper 80s.

Wednesday will bring sunny skies to all of South Florida.  Wednesday’s highs will be in the upper 80s on the mainland and the mid-80s in the Keys.

Thursday will feature lots of sun and a gusty breeze.  The East Coast metro area could also see an afternoon shower or two.  Thursday’s highs will be in the upper 80s on the mainland and the mid-80s in the Keys.

Friday will be a breezy and sunny day around South Florida.  A stray shower is possible in the East Coast metro area during the afternoon. Friday’s highs will be in the mid-80s in the East Coast metro area and the Keys and in the upper 80s along the Gulf Coast.

Faith Based Events

Saturday’s forecast calls for breezy conditions, lots of sun, and a shower or two in the East Coast metro area.  Look for sunny skies along the Gulf Coast, while the Keys will see plenty of clouds and some showers.  Highs on Saturday will be in the mid-80s in the East Coast metro area and the Keys and in the upper 80s along the Gulf Coast.

In the tropics, the wave that’s entering the Caribbean has a high chance of becoming our next depression or tropical storm.  (The name would be Melissa.)  The wave is forecast to slow and linger over the region.  Most of the computer models indicate impacts to Hispaniola and eastern Cuba, but late season systems are notoriously dependent on the movement of fronts to their north — so we can’t rule out other potential tracks at this time.  We’ll have to watch this one closely.
