South Florida Sun Gives Way to Weekend Storms

Wednesday features a dry day with lots of sun and a few clouds.  Look for a gusty ocean breeze on the East Coast metro area, so an elevated risk of dangerous rip currents continues at the Atlantic beaches.  Wednesday’s highs will be in the low 80s right at the Atlantic coast and in the Keys, while the rest of South Florida will reach the mid 80s.

Thursday will bring seasonable morning lows in the upper 60s to low 70s on the mainland and in the mid 70s in the Keys.  Look for a mostly sunny morning, but showers will move in during the afternoon as a front approaches.  The Gulf Coast will also see a gusty breeze.  Thursday’s highs will be mostly in the mid-80s on the East Coast and in the low-80s along the Gulf Coast and in the Keys.

Friday will feature some early showers and storms, followed by more clouds than sun and periods of showers and storms.  Friday’s highs will be mostly in the mid-80s on the East Coast and in the low-80s along the Gulf Coast and in the Keys.

Saturday will begin with showers in spots, and the day will see some sun, plenty of clouds, and periods of showers in the East Coast metro area.  Look for more clouds than sun with showers and storms along the Gulf coast and in the Keys.  Saturday’s highs will be in the low 80s.

Sunday’s forecast calls for a mix of sun, clouds, showers, and some storms.  Highs on Sunday will be in the low 80s on the mainland and near 80 degrees in the Keys.
