Showers, Storms, Clouds — and Watching the Tropics

showers, storms

South Florida will see showers, storms, clouds on Tuesday as we continue to watch the tropics. After some early east coast showers, look for afternoon storms popping up around the area, with much of the activity in the western suburbs of Miami-Dade and Broward, in the interior, and along the Gulf coast. Tuesday’s highs will be in the upper 80s.

Rain chances go down slightly on Thursday, and most of the afternoon storms will develop in the interior. Thursday’s highs will be near 90 degrees.

More afternoon storms will pop up on Friday, especially in the western part of metro Miami-Dade and Broward and in the interior. Highs on Friday will be near 90 degrees.

Faith Based Events

Saturday features a few early east coast showers, afternoon storms well inland, and highs in the upper 80s.

two_atl_5d0The wave we’ve been watching is more organized and stronger as it moves toward the Windward Islands. It could reach tropical depression or tropical storm status before it reaches the islands on Wednesday. It will move generally to the west over the next few days into an area where conditions are favorable for further strengthening. The models are not in agreement after two to three days, and some of them do indicate a northward turn. We’ll continue to watch this system closely.
