More Heat and Humidity on Tap for South Florida

LEAST ONE DEATH THERE. 518 ON THIS SUNDAY, NIKKI. LET’S GET ANOTHER LOOK AT THE FORECAST. YEAH. AND IT IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER HOT AND HUMID DAY. SO IF YOU LOVED YESTERDAY, YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE TODAY AND INTO YOUR MEMORIAL DAY AS WE’RE GOING TO BE FEELING TEMPERATURES MORE SO IN THE UPPER 90S AND HUNDREDS AS WE PROGRESS INTO THOSE AFTERNOON HOURS. SO PLEASE JUST DRINK A LOT OF WATER, TRY TO STAY HYDRATED, AND SEEK SHADE OFTEN IF YOU’RE GOING TO BE SPENDING TIME OUTDOORS, BECAUSE THIS HEAT COULD BE DANGEROUS, IT COULD LEAD TO HEAT ILLNESSES. SO WE JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY IS STAYING SAFE THIS HOLIDAY WEEKEND. RIGHT NOW, TEMPERATURES FOR MOST OF US SITTING IN THE 80S, 80 IN STUART, 80 IN FORT PIERCE, 80 OVER INTO WEST PALM AND FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES STILL NOT STRAYING TOO FAR FROM THE ACTUAL TEMPERATURE JUST YET. BUT GIVE IT A COUPLE OF HOURS AND WE WILL REALLY BEGIN TO NOTICE THAT DIFFERENCE. A LOOK AT RADAR AND YOU WILL SEE JUST A LITTLE BLIP OF A SHOWER MOVING IN FROM THE ATLANTIC, BRINGING SOME LIGHT TO MODERATE RAINFALL TO PORTIONS OF PALM BEACH COUNTY. NOTICE HOW THOSE SHOWERS HAVE ALREADY BEGUN TO FIZZLE ONCE THEY WORK THEIR WAY OVER LAND WHERE WE’RE SEEING THAT RED DIMINISH TO THOSE GREENS AND BLUES. ABERDEEN SEEING A COUPLE OF SHOWERS AND THOSE SHOWERS ARE JUST CONTINUOUSLY TRACKING OUT TOWARDS THE WEST. SO IT IS GOING TO BE A VERY SIMILAR PATTERN TO THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS, WHERE THE BULK OF THE ACTIVITY IS GOING TO BE SITTING MORE SO TOWARDS THE GULF COAST. WE WILL JUST HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR A COUPLE MORE SHOWERS CLOSE TO THE COAST THIS MORNING. AND THEN AS WE HEAD TOWARDS MIDDAY, WE WILL SEE A FEW OF THOSE SHOWERS THROUGH OUR FAR INTERIOR SECTIONS. BUT MOST OF US NOT GOING TO BE SEEING A DROP OF RAIN. JUST GOING TO BE SEEING PLENTY OF SUNSHINE. AND YOU CAN SEE THAT HERE ON FUTURECAST, HOW WE’RE LOOKING AT FAIRLY QUIET CONDITIONS THROUGH THE MAJORITY OF THE DAY. A COUPLE OF SPRINKLES INTO THE ONE 2:00 HOUR, BUT THE FOCUS REALLY GOING TO BE SITTING WELL TO THE WEST OF US. THAT’S WHERE WE WILL BE SEEING THOSE SHOWERS AND THOSE THUNDERSTORMS REALLY BE DEVELOPING FOR TODAY. INSTEAD, TODAY, BEAUTIFUL CONDITIONS AGAIN, JUST GOING TO BE HOT AND HUMID OUT THERE. AND AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THOSE BEACH CONDITIONS, BECAUSE I KNOW EVERYBODY WANTS TO GET OUT TO THE BEACH. UNFORTUNATELY, WE DO HAVE A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS FOR THE PALM BEACHES AS WELL AS INTO THE TREASURE COAST. SO PLEASE STAY OUT OF THE WATER. ENJOY THE SANDY SHORES. YOU WILL BE SEEING PLENTY OF SUNSHINE, EXTREME UV LEVELS, MEANING YOU CAN GET A SUNBURN IN JUST ABOUT TEN MINUTES. SO HAVE THAT SUNSCREEN ON. AND AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO MEMORIAL DAY, VERY LOW END RAINFALL CHANCES IN THE FORECAST AS WELL. TEMPERATURES GOING TO BE HOT OUT THERE CLIMBING INTO THE 90S. AND THEN THOSE FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES GOING TO BE SITTING UPPER 90S AND HUNDREDS. BUT AGAIN, PLENTY OF SUN. YOU REALLY DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE RAINFALL IMPACTING ANY OF YOUR PLANS, BUT YOU WILL SEE RAIN CHANCES WILL BE INCREASING AS WE HEAD TOWARDS THE MIDWEEK, THURSDAY AND FRIDAY CALLING FOR IMPACT WEATHER BECAUSE WE CAN EXPECT AT LEAST 50% COVERAGE OF THE SHOWERS AND STORMS. ALL RIGHT. NIKKI, THANK YOU.
