Unsettled Times Ahead As July Begins
Believe it or not July is just about here as we march our way through the final days of June It has been unsettled in latest weeks across South Florida although for countless locations heavy rainfall has been lacking There will be the feasible for heavy pockets of rain depending on how thunderstorms setup this coming week being driven by the next incoming upper level low This area of low pressure remains to our east with a large swirl detected near the Bahamas and over the southwestern Atlantic Ocean With that commented this low will start to feed in more clouds for our Sunday Therefore expect mostly cloudy skies but still various peeks of sunshine There will be the chance for certain spotty showers during the day but the highest likely for seeing rain which isn t that high of a chance will be this evening in the form of isolated showers and storms especially inland It will also still be hazy with reduced air quality due to Saharan dust This dust will linger through Monday before thinning out for the the bulk part Tuesday and beyond On Monday expect very similar conditions but potentially with a minimal more storms as the upper low lurks just offshore It s not until Tuesday and Wednesday when the setup will become more favorable for pop-up showers and thunderstorms especially in the afternoon hours and away from the coast Neither day will be a washout but will continue to feature more clouds than sunshine Then as we fast forward toward the Fourth of July the forecast turns more uncertain and iffy Another upper level disturbance and forecast to dive in across the southeastern US but its evolution will have a big impact on what we see over the holiday weekend As of now for the Fourth there is a decent chance for scattered showers and storms but stay tuned as the forecast will likely change Tropical update Tropical Depression Two formed over the Bay of Campeche on Saturday It is forecast to intensify into a tropical storm Sunday before moving into eastern Mexico by the end of this weekend leading to heavy rainfall and gusty winds
