Cold outside

South Florida is just plain cold outside today. With morning lows in the 40s, don’t look for a real warm up today. Even with plenty of sun, highs will top out in the low 60s.

Tuesday will feel more like South Florida, with lows mostly in the low to mid 60s and afternoon temperatures in the mid 70s on a day with sun and clouds. Some showers move in Tuesday night, and Wednesday will be rainy with showers, possibly a few storms, and highs in the upper 70s.

Wet weather will linger into Thursday, when highs will be in the mid to upper 70s.
