Pretty Pleasant Start to the First Weekend in Dry Season

The weekend is here and it will be off to a picture perfect start across South Florida Expect sunshine with particular scattered clouds blowing onshore along the slightly weaker easterly breeze High temperatures will be fairly seasonable topping off into the low to mid s and humidity will be quite low making it feel rather pleasant Given the onshore breeze all weekend long that will keep the rip current exposure high along all of our east coast beaches so be sure to avoid the water if you re not a strong swimmer and only swim at a guarded beach On Sunday and into the start of next week moisture levels start to increase as the weak front that crosses through the area Friday morning lifts back to the north This will introduce a better opportunity for chosen showers and definitely higher humidity Temperatures will also be a bit warmer reaching - F in Miami It won t be an overly wet forecast but expect times of passing isolated to scattered showers early week with still lots of dry time By the second half of next week rain chances should fall a bit courtesy of selected drier air with an approaching front from the north Depending on the progress of that front we could be in for another drop in humidity by next weekend along with an increase in wind speeds Tropical update The National Hurricane Center continues to monitor two areas in the Atlantic basin for anticipated tropical enhancement That includes a tropical wave with a low chance of forming over the Caribbean Sea next week The exact track and evolution of this likely system is still unknown so it s worth monitoring across the entire Caribbean region It s at present no worry at all for Florida and the US
