South Florida Faces Sweltering Mid-90s Heat, Beach Hazards, and Tropical Waves

South Florida Reporter: AI Generated by Google Gemini

Saturday features mostly sunny skies, with showers and storms possible in the afternoon, especially in western parts of South Florida.  Expect an elevated risk of dangerous rip currents at the Atlantic beaches.  Saturday’s highs will be in the low 90s on the mainland and near 90 degrees in the Keys — but it will feel much hotter, so stay hydrated and out of the sun.

Sunday will bring sunny skies and summertime heat to all of South Florida.  Sunday’s highs will be mostly in the mid-90s in the East Coast metro area and in the low 90s along the Gulf Coast and in the Keys.

Monday will feature another sunny, hot August day across South Florida.  Monday’s highs will be in the mid-90s in the East Coast metro area and in the low 90s along the Gulf Coast and in the Keys.

Tuesday will be yet another hot and sunny day on the mainland, with a few storms developing in spots during the mid to late afternoon.  The Keys will see lots of hot sun and maybe a cloud or two.  Tuesday’s highs will be in the mid-90s in the East Coast metro area, near 90 degrees along the Gulf Coast, and in the low 90s in the Keys.

Faith Based Events

Wednesday’s forecast calls for a mix of sun, clouds, and some showers and storms on the mainland, while the Keys will see mostly sunny skies.  Highs on Wednesday will be in the mid-90s in the East Coast metro area, near 90 degrees along the Gulf Coast, and in the low 90s in the Keys.

In the tropics, the wave in the central Atlantic has entered an area of unfavorable upper level winds east of the Lesser Antilles, so it has a very low chance of becoming a depression.  But it will still bring gusty winds and heavy rain to the region on Saturday.  The wave in the eastern Atlantic has a medium chance of development as it moves westward or west-northwestward, but it will also be entering an area of unfavorable upper level winds next week.
