SOUTH FLORIDA GETS A BREAK FROM THE RAINS BUT MORE ON THE WAY

South Florida gets a break from all the while Fridays front backs up and drags all the moisture over northern Florida.  Low pressure in the Gulf will merge with this front and drag more rains from the Gulf over the southern half of Florida this evening.  So enjoy dry conditions for now because it won't last long.  There is still a chance for a thunderstorm this evening...RTW

RAIN AND POSSIBLE STORMS POSSIBLY HEAVY SATURDAY AND SUNDAY

The front that past through south Florida Thursday will back up over the area Saturday and parts of Sunday.  This could bring heavy rains at times for the Florida straits and extreme southern Florida on Saturday and Sunday morning.

Model still shows an impulse of storms from the Western Gulf that will merge with the tail end of this front.  The heavy rains and possible storms will track north from Cuba as the front moves north over the peninsula...RTW

SOUTH FLORIDA SEVERE STORM UPDATE FOR THURSDAY

Seems like the arrival for possible severe storms is now Thursday.  Deep South has less of a chance.


SLIGHT CHANCE FOR STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS

Slight chance for strong to severe storms across the southeast today with the approach of another strong front.  Windy conditions ahead of the front persist due to the squeeze play between high in the Atlantic and the approaching front.  Both system pushing against each other is producing a strong pressure gragient over the Eastern Gulf and Florida.
