Marginal risk for severe storms as heat indices climb to 100 degrees in South Florida<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTHE COMMUNITY. ALL RIGHT. 447 SANDRA IMPACT WEATHER TODAY. YES, LATE THIS AFTERNOON. SO YOU\u2019RE WAKING UP THIS MORNING GOING, OH, IT\u2019S JUST A LITTLE STICKY OUTSIDE, A LITTLE HUMID. YEAH. MOST OF YOUR DAY TODAY WILL BE FINE, BUT LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING, WE\u2019RE GOING TO SEE THESE STORMS REALLY FIRE UP. AND WE COULD SEE SOME ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS. BUT LOOKING BEAUTIFUL. I LOVE THE LIGHT SCENARIO THAT\u2019S GOING OVER HERE, ESPECIALLY OVER THESE BUILDINGS OVER BOCA. IT\u2019S A NICE SCENE, A VERY SERENE AND STILL AND STICKY SCENE ON THE BOCA INLET. ALL THIS HEAT MANAGING TO BUILD OUT AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT WHICH WILL NOT GET THROUGH HERE UNTIL AFTER TOMORROW. SO EVEN TOMORROW YOU CAN SEE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND STORMS IN THE MIX THROUGHOUT. SO WE\u2019RE GOING TO HAVE A COUPLE OF IMPACT SCENARIOS WITH OUR WEATHER AS WE ADVANCE FORWARD. TODAY, REALLY NOT SO MUCH FOR THE COVERAGE THE ENTIRE DAY. IT\u2019S A LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING EVENT. HOWEVER, WE ARE IN THE MARGINAL RISK FOR ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS, WHICH IS WHY WE\u2019RE REALLY GOING WITH IMPACT BECAUSE WE WILL SEE THAT LATER ON. WHEN WE TALK ABOUT ISOLATED RISK, WE\u2019RE TALKING ABOUT THE VERY GUSTY WINDS, HEAVY RAIN, LOTS OF LIGHTNING WITH THOSE, AND MAYBE EVEN A LITTLE SPIN. WE GOT A COUPLE LAST NIGHT. MEANWHILE, WE GOT 80 IN WEST PALM. IT IS ON SIMMER, 80 IN PERCOLATING AND BOYNTON BEACH 80 BOCA 79 IN STUART. REALLY STEAMY OUT THERE. A LITTLE CLOUD COVER THIS MORNING. AND AGAIN WE\u2019RE NOT EVEN SHOWING MUCH ACTION AT 5:00. IT\u2019S REALLY AT ABOUT AFTER THE 6:00 HOUR THAT WE SEE ACTION SUNSETS RIGHT BEFORE 8:00 TONIGHT. SO IMPACT FOR THIS MONDAY 92, WE\u2019RE IN A MAJOR HEAT RISK FOR THE AREA WITH AN EXTREME HEAT RISK AND POCKETS WEST OF THE TURNPIKE. SO A HEADS UP ON THAT FOR TODAY. THAT MEANS THAT\u2019S NOT GOING TO BE IDEAL TO RUN OUT THERE. IN FACT, YOU KNOW WE\u2019VE GOT THE 90 DEGREE READING EARLIER ON IN THE DAY THAT WILL MAKE IT FEEL LIKE 95. AND IF YOU TRY YOUR LUCK DOING ANYTHING OUTDOORS, 92 THIS AFTERNOON IS GOING TO FEEL LIKE 99 DEGREES. SO REALLY, THERE\u2019S A HEAT RISK EARLY. AND THEN WE\u2019LL SEE THE STORMS FIRE ON ALL CYLINDERS. TUESDAY IMPACT WITH WIDESPREAD SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRETY OF THE DAY. AND THIS IS NO BIG SURPRISE BECAUSE WE\u2019RE STARTING TO FIRE UP INTO OUR WET SEASON PATTERN. YOU CAN SEE HOW MUCH MORE RAINFALL WE\u2019RE GOING TO GET. YOU KNOW, IT\u2019S LIKE CLOCKWORK AFTERNOON AS WE HEAD INTO THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS. SO WE\u2019RE GOING TO CATCH UP FOR SURE. MEANWHILE, ON WEDNESDAY, KIND OF LINGERING MOISTURE WILL GET OUT OF HERE EVENTUALLY. THURSDAY, 8890 ON FRIDAY, MORE SUNSHINE, 89 ON SATURDAY AND 89 DEGREES ON SUNDAY. SO ANOTHER PRETTY GOOD WEEKEND AHEAD. SOUTHEAST WINDS AT 10 TO 15 KNOTS AT 4:47 P.M. HIGH TIDE.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
