After some early morning fog in spots, we’ll see some passing showers on the ocean breeze, a mix of sun and clouds, and highs in the low 80s. The risk of dangerous rip currents will be at moderate levels at the Atlantic beaches on Monday. We could see some minor coastal flooding, especially at low-lying areas of Fort Lauderdale, at high tides on Monday and for the next few days.

Tuesday will bring the chance of some early morning patchy fog followed by a mix of sun and clouds and the chance of a shower in spots. Tuesday’s highs will be in the low to mid 80s.

Thursday features sun, clouds, the chance of a shower, and highs in the low 80s as a weak front moves through.
