Warm and Green For St. Patrick’s Day

green

South Florida will be warm, dry, and green for St. Patrick’s Day. After some patchy fog early Thursday morning, look for sun, clouds, and highs mostly in the mid 80s.

image6Friday will also be warm for mid-March, with highs in the mid 80s and plenty of sun, but changes are on the way.

Clouds and showers move in on Saturday, and we could even see a stray storm. Highs will be in the low 80s.

More showers and a few storms develop on Sunday as a front approaches, and afternoon highs will be in the low 80s.

But after the front clears South Florida, Monday morning will see lows in the low to mid 60s, and highs will top out in the mid to upper 70s Monday afternoon.
