By Donna Thomas, SouthFloridaReporter.com Meteorologist, Nov. 7, 2015 – South Florida will be hot and humid this weekend, and we’ll see some showers pass through. Saturday will begin with some showers, but there will be enough hot sun to push afternoon temperatures into the muggy mid to upper 80s. While it won’t be as breezy, we’ll still see a moderate risk of dangerous rip currents at the beaches. Sunday will see more summerlike heat and humidity, with highs in the mid to upper 80s, and a few more showers will move through. Some showers will linger into Monday, but we’ll see shower chances decrease as we reach midweek. Highs will remain unseasonably warm, topping out in the mid to upper 80s from Monday through Wednesday.
In the tropics, the area of low pressure now in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico has a low chance of developing into a depression before it merges with a cold front now over the mid-southern states. The area of disturbed weather near the Lesser Antilles has a medium chance of developing over the next 5 days as it moves into the southeastern Bahamas continues on a generally northwestward track. In any event, it will bring heavy rain to the Lesser Antilles, Puerto Rico, and Hispaniola this weekend.
