Wednesday will bring plenty of sun and a few clouds as we finally see some typical South Florida December temperatures.  Wednesday’s highs will be in the mid-70s.

Thursday will feature lots of sun with some clouds at times as the warmup continues.  Look for a few showers on a gusty ocean breeze in the east coast metro area.  Thursday’s highs will be in the upper 70s in the east coast metro area and near 80 degrees along the Gulf coast.

Friday will see good and a few clouds.   Some east coast showers will blow through on an ocean breeze.  Friday’s highs will be in the low 80s.

Saturday’s forecast calls for mostly sunny skies on the last day of 2022.  Look for breezy conditions near the Gulf coast.  New Year’s Eve will be on the cloudy side, and we can’t rule out a shower near the Gulf coast.  Highs on Saturday will be in the low 80s.
