I continue to see the potential for heavy rains and flooding and the potential for strong thunderstorms with gusty winds and maybe severe storms over South Florida on both coasts. Models are not in agreement and bit of confusion with what is to develop or not. Regardless of development, the potential for heavy rains from deep tropical moisture rising north from the Caribbean seems to be increasing.
I posted below precipitation models and wind gust models for you to see. I will continue to monitor the Central American Gyre for this possible spin-up of this low pressure into next week. So far, NHC says no tropical cyclone formation for the next 7 days. So I will continue to monitor the NHC website for the latest on the tropics.

000 AXNT20 KNHC 082320 TWDAT Tropical Weather Discussion NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 0005 UTC Sat Jun 8 2024 Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis. Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 2300 UTC. ...SPECIAL FEATURES... Heavy Rainfall in the NW Caribbean and SW N Atlantic: Abundant tropical moisture surging northeastward combined with a diffluent pattern aloft continues to generate a large area of scattered heavy showers and thunderstorms across the Bahamas and the NW Caribbean, including Cuba, Jamaica and the Cayman Islands and regional waters. Dangerous lightning, strong gusty winds, rough seas and low visibility are likely ongoing in these regions. Currently, numerous showers, with embedded thunderstorms, are affecting most of the Bahamas, and the Caribbean waters from 18N to 20N between 76W and 87W. The soils remain saturated over the Greater Antilles, therefore, it is possible that more heavy rain may lead to flash flooding and mudslides, especially in mountainous terrain. Mariners should exercise caution as these conditions are forecast to continue through the weekend. Please, refer to bulletins and forecasts from the local weather forecast offices for detailed information. Looking ahead, weather conditions are expected to favor additional heavy rainfall next week, with the heaviest rains likely impacting western Cuba and Florida. ...TROPICAL WAVES... An Atlantic tropical wave is along 42W from 11N southward, moving west at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is mainly ahead of the wave axis from 04N to 10N between 42W and 47W. A tropical wave is approaching the Windward Islands. Its axis is along 60W, from 14N southward, moving west at 10-15 kt. The wave appears to enhance convection over Guyana and eastern Venezuela as well as over the southern Windward Islands. A Caribbean tropical wave is along 76W, from 14N southward, moving west at 5-10 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is noted near the wave axis over Colombia. ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ... The monsoon trough extends from 12N16W to 06N22W. The ITCZ then extends from 06N22W to 07N45W to 09N57W. Aside from the convection associated with the tropical waves, scattered moderate convection is noted from 02N to 06N between 25W and 34W, and from 08N to 10N between 48W and 53W. GULF OF MEXICO... Weak high pressure of 1015 mb located over the NE Gulf dominates the basin while a stationary front is along the Florida Panhandle. A broad area of low pressure is observed over the Yucatan Peninsula and SE Mexico where scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is occurring. Under this weather pattern, mainly light to gentle winds prevail across most of the Gulf waters with seas of 2 to 4 ft. For the forecast, a weak pressure gradient will support mainly gentle to moderate winds the next several days. Winds will pulse to fresh speeds near the Yucatan Peninsula during the late afternoon and evening hours. Hazy conditions due to agricultural fires over Central America and Mexico will continue for at least the next couple of days, reducing visibility to around 3 nm at times, mainly over the SW Gulf. CARIBBEAN SEA... Please read the Special Features section for information about heavy rainfall in the NW Caribbean. The pressure gradient between subtropical Atlantic high pressure and lower pressure over Colombia and Venezuela is supporting fresh to locally strong trades in the central Caribbean, including the Gulf of Venezuela. Seas are 5 to 8 ft within these winds based on altimeter data. In the eastern and western Caribbean, mostly moderate trade winds are seen per satellite derived wind data, except in the Gulf of Honduras, and in the SW Caribbean S of 11N where winds are light and variable. Seas are 3 to 5 ft elsewhere N of 11N and E of 80W, and N of 18N W of 80W. Seas in the 1 to 3 ft range are noted across the remainder of the basin. For the forecast, a mid to upper level trough will support showers and thunderstorms through the weekend across the NW Caribbean, including Cuba and the Windward Passage. A second upper level trough may extend this shower activity over the NW Caribbean through early next week. Moderate to fresh trades will prevail across the central and eastern Caribbean through the forecast period, except locally strong winds pulsing tonight as well as Mon through Wed nights. Moderate to fresh SE winds are forecast for the NW Caribbean most of the forecast period. ATLANTIC OCEAN... Please see the Special Features section for information on heavy rainfall over the western Atlantic. A persistent deep layer trough over Florida and the SE Gulf of Mexico continues to support the development of numerous showers and thunderstorms over parts of south and central Florida as well as over the Bahamas and surrounding waters, particularly S of 27N and W of 65W. Winds and seas could be higher near tstms. A frontal boundary extends from 31N30W to 22N51W. A few showers are near the front. The remainder of the Atlantic forecast area is under the influence of 1022 mb high pressure located near 30N50W. Mainly light to gentle winds and seas of 2 to 4 ft are noted N of 20N. Moderate trade winds dominate the tropical Atlantic with seas in the 4 to 7 ft range. For the forecast W of 55W, a deep layer trough will support showers and tstms over the Bahamas offshore waters through Sun. A weak frontal boundary over the far NW waters will lift north of the area Sun as high pressure builds back in across the region. $$ GR
