Strong Breezes Continue For Florida And Tropics Watching Begins Today

Thursday features very breezy conditions, periods of strong gusts, and a few early east coast showers.  Look for good sun along the Gulf coast and a mix of sun and clouds in the east coast metro area.  A high risk of dangerous rip currents remains at the Atlantic beaches through Saturday evening.  Highs on Thursday will be mostly in the low 80s in the east coast metro area and the mid to upper 80s along the Gulf coast.

Friday will continue our stretch of very breezy days.  The east coast metro area will see a mix of sun and clouds, while the Gulf coast will enjoy mostly sunny conditions.  Friday’s highs will be mostly in the mid-80s in the east coast metro area and the upper 80s along the Gulf coast.

Saturday will feature a brisk and gusty ocean breeze, good sun, and some clouds at times.  Saturday’s highs will be in the mid-80s in the east coast metro area and near 90 degrees along the Gulf coast.

Faith Based Events

Sunday will bring mostly sunny skies and a brisk breeze, especially near the Atlantic coast.  Sunday’s highs will be in the mid-80s in the east coast metro area and the upper 80s along the Gulf coast.

Monday’s forecast calls for lots of sun.  Highs on Monday will be mostly in the upper 80s.

Hurricane season is fast approaching, and we’re watching a non-tropical low in the central Atlantic that is likely to become the first depression of 2021.  This feature is several hundred miles northeast of Bermuda, and it’s expected it move southwestward and approach Bermuda on Friday. The National Hurricane Center gives it a high chance of becoming a subtropical depression during the next few days.  But it won’t last long as it will move into a hostile environment on Sunday into Monday.  This system is no threat to South Florida — but it’s a reminder that it’s time to check your hurricane supplies and update your hurricane plan.
