Clear skies and warming trend ahead for South Florida

This week’s weather should be stable, with sunny skies, low wind and temperatures rising from the low 80s to nearly 90 by the weekend.

While Tuesday will see the potential for brief showers, especially along the coast, a high-pressure system will clear things up through the week.

The week will start with daytime highs in the low 80s, nighttime highs in the low 70s and gradually heat up. The weekend could see a chance of rain Sunday.

Later in the week, a low-pressure system should stall to our north, and winds will shift to southwesterly, bringing in hotter temps.

High temperatures on Thursday and Friday will generally rise into the upper 80s to lower 90s across most of South Florida.

Saturday looks dry, but Sunday and Monday could see rain and thunderstorms, depending on how far south a frontal system over the Great Plains travels.
