South Florida Weather: Abundant Sunshine and Rising Temperatures Ahead with Persistent Atlantic Beach Rip Current Hazards

Saturday features a cool morning, followed by lots of sun and a few clouds at times throughout South Florida.  A high risk of dangerous rip currents continues at the Atlantic beaches.  Saturday’s highs will be in the mid-70s right at the Atlantic coast and in the Keys, while the rest of South Florida will top out around the 80-degree mark.

Sunday will bring morning lows in the unseasonable upper 50s to low 60s on the mainland.  Then look for sunny skies around South Florida.  Expect a high risk of dangerous rip currents along the Palm Beach County coast and an elevated rip current risk at the beaches of Broward and Miami-Dade.  Sunday’s highs will be in the low 80s on the mainland and mostly in the upper 70s in the Keys.

Monday will feature morning lows mostly in the low 60s on the mainland.  Then look for yet another sunny late March day.  Monday’s highs will be mostly in the mid-80s on the East Coast, in the low-80s along the Gulf Coast, and in the upper-70s in the Keys.

Tuesday morning lows will bottom out in the mid 60s on the mainland.  Then we’ll see lots of sun and a few clouds throughout South Florida.  Tuesday’s highs will be in the mid-80s on the East Coast, the low-80s along the Gulf Coast, and the upper-70s in the Keys.

Wednesday’s forecast calls for another day with plenty of sun and just a few clouds.  Highs on Wednesday will be in the mid-80s on the East Coast, the low-80s along the Gulf Coast, and near 80 degrees in the Keys.
