Impact with Marginal Risk for Severe Storms for South Florida<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOVER TO OUR AREA. RIGHT NOW WE ARE DEALING WITH SOME WEATHER CHANGES. SANDRA BIG TIME. WE DESPERATELY NEED THE RAIN AND WE\u2019RE ACTUALLY SEEING SOME OF THAT ACTION THIS MORNING AS SOME DOWNPOURS ARE MOVING THROUGH. SO IMPACT WEATHER TODAY FOR SHOWERS AND EVEN MAYBE AN ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE STORM. RIGHT NOW IT\u2019S RAINING IN VERO BEACH A SIGHT FOR SORE EYES. FORT PIERCE YOU\u2019RE GETTING DOWNPOURS AS WELL AS FORT DRUM AND OKEECHOBEE. NO LIGHTNING ASSOCIATED WITH THIS RIGHT NOW, BUT JUST SOME PRETTY GOOD BATCHES OF HEAVY RAIN. AND IT\u2019S BEEN RAINING HERE EVER SINCE I CAME IN ABOUT AN HOUR AGO. SO FROM INDIAN RIVER SHORES INTO VERO, THEIR DOWNPOURS, FLORIDA RIDGE, SAINT LUCIE, VILLAGE, FORT PIERCE, CORTEZ ESTATES, COLLIN PARK ESTATES IF WE\u2019RE STREET LEVEL TRACKING ALONG 95 BACK TOWARD THE LAKE, WE HAVE RAINS AS WELL. RAINS REALLY INUNDATING FORT DRUM, NIKO MIKKOLA AND DOWN INTO OKEECHOBEE. SO THIS IS REALLY A GOOD THING. IT\u2019S A FRONT THAT\u2019S MOVING THROUGH AND AS IT DOES SO, IT\u2019S GENERATING THE RAIN. SO WE DON\u2019T NEED STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS EVERY. BUT WE ARE IN THAT LOWEST LEVEL OR MARGINAL OR ISOLATED RISK FOR THAT. THIS AFTERNOON SOMETIME ABOUT 2:00 ONWARD, I THINK WE HAVE THE HIGHEST RISK FOR SEEING A COUPLE OF ISOLATED, STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS. I\u2019LL HAVE YOUR FUTURE TRACKS AHEAD IN THE NEWSCAST, BUT FIRST, TEMPERATURES YOU\u2019RE WAKING UP TO ARE MILD AND IT\u2019S MUGGIER OUT THERE. MAYBE EVEN SOME PATCHY, DENSE FOG. KEEP YOUR EYES OUT FOR THAT THIS MORNING. WE\u2019VE GOT THE IMPACT WITH THE DOWNPOURS AROUND THE TREASURE COAST REALLY PEAKING THIS AFTERNOON. SO THAT\u2019S WHEN THE IMPACT LEVEL REALLY GOES UP FROM ABOUT NOON ONWARD THROUGH 6 P.M. AND THEN WE\u2019RE GOING TO SEE THAT GOOD COVERAGE OF STORMS FINALLY DISSIPATE AFTER ABOUT SEVEN, 8:00 TONIGHT FOR THE PALM BEACHES. TAKING A LIVE LOOK OUT HERE. IT IS DRY IN PALM BEACH GARDENS, BUT WE HAVE THE IMPACT FOR THE STORMS REALLY STARTING TO MATERIALIZE. ABOUT 1:00 ONWARD THROUGHOUT THE EARLY EVENING HERE AS WELL. AHEAD, WE\u2019LL TAKE A LOOK AT YOU\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tSouth Florida is at a marginal risk for isolated severe storms this afternoon. The storms could generate high winds, an isolated tornado, and heavy rain. The action will develop sometime afternoon and peak into the early evening. A disturbance is moving through along a weakening frontal boundary. Highs will hit the lower 80s. There’s only a slight chance of showers the next several days with the lower 80s holding the line as highs.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
