Hazy and Dangerously Hot

dangerously hot

South Florida will be hazy and dangerously hot on Wednesday. Look for hazy skies as Saharan dust moves through and highs in the sizzling mid 90s — but feeling well more like 100 to 105 (a range that can bring on heat-related illness).

Friday will continue the pattern, with highs in the mid 90s, hazy skies, and just a few clouds.

As the dust moves on, we’ll return to our typical rainy season weather over the weekend, with a few early showers, mostly inland afternoon storms, and highs in the low 90s on both Saturday and Sunday.
