Impact downpours and flooding possible in South Florida as tropical moisture builds this weekend
AT THAT FORECAST. AND YOU TOLD US THAT SEVEN DAYS OF RAIN STARTED YESTERDAY. YES. AND I MEAN, AT LEAST IT’S NOT RAINING ALL DAY, EVERY DAY, BUT IT IS GOING TO BE AT LEAST EVERY DAY, A SWATH OF VERY ACTIVE ACTIVITY WHEN IT COMES TO THE DOWNPOURS. AND SO THIS AFTERNOON, LATE AND INTO THE EVENING, THAT’S WHAT WE’RE GOING TO SEE IT TODAY. NOTHING REALLY ON FIRST WARNING RADAR NOW, WHICH IS A HUGE CONTRAST TO WHAT WE SAW YESTERDAY MORNING. IT WAS SLOPPY GOING, BUT TEMPERATURES ARE HERE IN THE LOWER TO MID 70S. WE HAVE THE LOW 80S IN BOYNTON BEACH. SO SOME HOT SPOTS. AND IT IS TROPICAL HUMID ACROSS THE BOARD. THE DEW POINTS ARE QUITE ELEVATED AND SO IMPACT ARRIVING 2:00 ONWARD FOR THE TREASURE COAST. HIGHS UP AROUND 90. AGAIN FOR THE PALM BEACHES. IT’S A SIMILAR THEME AS WE TAKE A LOOK OUT HERE AT OUR SKYCAMERA FROM. IT LOOKS LIKE THE DOWNTOWN GARDENS AREA WILL HIT 90 BY 3:00, BRINGING IN THOUGH THE IMPACT DOWNPOURS FROM 3:00 UNTIL ABOUT 8:00 TONIGHT. SO IT’S GOING TO BE A WET FRIDAY NIGHT ON AND OFF, SIMILAR TO LAST NIGHT, BUT MAYBE EVEN WITH MORE COVERAGE ADVANCING FORWARD FOR YOUR WEEKEND PLANNER IMPACT UP FOR
