Let's dive into the forecast, shall we...
TODAY: Partly sunny with scattered storms in the afternoon. Humid too. Highs in the lower to mid 80s. Winds from the SE at 5 mph.
TONIGHT: Chance of a pop-up shower or storm, otherwise mostly cloudy. Lows dropping in the upper 50s to lower 60s. Generally calm winds.
TOMORROW: Partly sunny with a small chance of an afternoon shower or storm again. Highs will be in the lower 80s. Winds from the NW at 5 mph.
Looking pretty nice for the Labor Day weekend, although can't rule out a spot shower late Sunday where things start to turn unsettled around here next week.
ATLANTIC TROPICS
- Interesting feature in South Florida with an upper-level low spinning off the coast as evident on the visible below.
- The tropical wave in the Central Atlantic is moving west and there remains a small chance for development.
- Another one moving out of Africa could start to develop once it's over water. It's expected to move over the Cape Verde islands and a high chance of it moving out to sea thereafter.
