Sizzling Sun and Late Day Storms, Yucatan Braces For Beryl

Friday features lots of hot sun in the morning followed by plenty of storms in the afternoon and evening.  Heavy rain and localized flooding are possible in spots.  A heat index as high as 108 degrees is possible near the Gulf Coast in the afternoon.  Highs on Friday will be in the low 90s right at the coasts, in the mid-90s in the rest of the mainland, and near 90 degrees in the Keys.

Saturday will bring mostly sunny skies, some morning showers, and periods of storms in the afternoon.  Look for some leftover showers and storms in the evening on the mainland.  Saturday’s highs will be in the low 90s on the mainland and near 90 degrees in the Keys.

Sunday will feature sun and storms in the morning, which will give way to periods of showers in the afternoon and early evening.  Sunday’s highs will be in the low 90s on the mainland and near 90 degrees in the Keys.

Monday will see a mix of sun, showers, and storms in the east coast metro area.  The Gulf Coast will be mostly sunny with mainly afternoon showers.  Monday’s highs will be mostly in the low 90s.

Faith Based Events

Tuesday’s forecast calls for a summertime mix of sun, clouds, showers, and storms.  Highs on Tuesday will be in the low 90s in the East Coast metro area and the Keys and in the mid-90s along the Gulf Coast.

In the tropics, a weaker Hurricane Beryl is taking aim on the Yucatan.  At 5pm  Thursday, Beryl had maximum sustained winds of 110 miles per hour and was moving west-northwest at 20 miles per hour.  There’s a hurricane warning for the Yucatan from Puerto Costa Maya to Cancun, which includes Cozumel.  The rest of the Yucatan coast was under a hurricane watch at 5 pm on Thursday.  Beryl is forecast to cross the Yucatan on Friday, weaken to a tropical storm, move through the southwestern Gulf of Mexico this weekend, and make landfall — possibly as a hurricane once again — on the northern coast of Mexico or the southern Texas coast late on Sunday.
Elsewhere, the wave that’s now in the central Caribbean is very disorganized and has a low chance of becoming a depression as it follows closely in the path of Hurricane Beryl.  But it will bring heavy rain and gusty winds to the Yucatan on Sunday or early on Monday.
