This Is Winter?

winter

winterWinter officially began early Wednesday morning, but South Florida isn’t feeling it. Instead, our streak of warm weather continues on Wednesday and beyond. After some early morning fog in spots, we’ll see sun, clouds, some passing showers in spots, and highs in the low 80s on Wednesday.

Thursday will bring some sun, clouds, and a few showers as a weak front fizzles out over us. Thursday’s highs will be near 80 degrees.

Friday brings a mix of sun and clouds along with passing showers. Friday’s highs will be near the 80 degree mark.

Saturday will see a mix of sun and clouds, some afternoon showers on a building ocean breeze, and highs in the low 80s.

Even a stray shower won’t dampen the celebrations on the first night of Hanukkah, and everyone knows Santa’s sleigh works just fine under all weather conditions. Christmas Day will be breezy, with a mix of sun and clouds and a few afternoon showers. Highs will be in the low 80s.
