By Donna Thomas, SouthFloridaReporter.com Meteorologist, Sept. 27, 2015 – South Florida will see passing showers on Sunday, but the big story is tidal flooding at the coast and rip currents off the beaches. Look for early showers (but quite heavy at times in the Lower Keys), a few inland afternoon storms on the sea breeze, an increasing risk of dangerous rip currents through Monday, and coastal tidal flooding, which will peak late Sunday and into Monday. Highs on Sunday will be in the upper 80s. Monday will feature early showers, afternoon storms, the risk of dangerous rip currents and tidal flooding, and highs in the upper 80s. As the wind flow shifts to the south on Tuesday, look for passing early showers and afternoon storms from Tuesday through Friday, with periods of heavy downpours in spots. Highs will be in the mid to upper 80s from Tuesday through the end of the workweek.
In the tropics, the area of disturbed weather over the Yucatan has a low chance of developing into a depression over the next 5 days, but its associated moisture will add to our rain chances and eventually dump plenty of rain on the southeastern U.S. The area of disturbed weather well east of the Bahamas and southwest of Bermuda has a medium chance of becoming a tropical or subtropical depression as it moves northward. And Tropical Depression Ida continues to wander as it moves west at 5 miles per hour in the central Atlantic. Ida’s top winds remain 30 miles per hour.
