Heaviest rain north Mon-Tue Shifts south rest of the week Locally heavy rainfall possible A stalled front and tropical moisture will team up to produce higher than normal rain chances across the Florida Panhandle and northern sections of the peninsula early in the week, shifting south during the second half of the week. Deeper moisture […]
Two weak weather systems (other than the sea breezes) will affect the forecast across Florida this week. Both, at different times and in separate locations, will limit sunshine and produce periods of heavy rain. A stalled front will dissipate slowly across north Florida early in the week, acting on an area of deeper moisture already […]
The National Hurricane Center began issuing advisories on Tropical Depression Four late Wednesday evening. The system was located about 1500 miles east of the Lesser Antilles and was moving west-northwest at 14 mph. The classification of the season's fourth cyclone was based on satellite data and surface observations from nearby ships. More from @NHC_Atlantic: Defined […]
Since 1851, only three tropical cyclones have formed in the central or eastern Atlantic during the first ten days of July. The National Hurricane Center says it may happen this week.
June was unusually active in tropics Extremely rare in main development region No threats to Florida through the 4th Three named storms down, and the first month of the Atlantic Hurricane season isn't even over yet. That alone is a bit unusual. The third named storm doesn't typically form (on average) until early August. It's […]
Florida could use a break. From the rain, that is. If you had any doubt the severe drought is over, this animation from the past month should help. Not only is the drought over, the June deluge has been relentless. In many cities, more rain has fallen in the first 23 days of June than […]
The blob of moisture of the Gulf that had so much “potential” is now officially a Tropical Storm. This means absolutely nothing to Florida. Tropical Storm Cindy never was, and never will produce much wind or surge. It will, however, result in a nearly continuous moderate to heavy rain over the western half of the […]
Development likely in next 48 hours Too early for specifics on track/strength Heavy rain risk in north FL and panhandle A tropical storm or depression making landfall in the Florida panhandle would certainly be cause for concern with regards to potential flooding. We believe this risk is present in some portions of Florida regardless. One […]
