Passing showers and isolated storms have been quickly developing and moving through parts of South Florida this Tuesday. This will be the trend throughout today because of our strong wind out of the East. The wind should subside slightly by the end of the week.
By tomorrow, if an area of clouds and rain holds in the Caribbean, we could see added moisture. Right now, we are bumping up the rain chances.
In the next couple of days, the breeze will continue to pick up & steer rain/storms our way. @wsvn pic.twitter.com/xAc4JW2MM9

Tropical Update:
A tropical wave located a few hundred miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands is gradually getting better organized. Conditions appear to be favorable for a tropical depression or storm to form during the next few days as it moves west-northwest and then northwest. The National Hurricane Center is giving it a high chance to form. Most of the computer models keep this potential system over the open waters of the central Atlantic through the next 5 days. It should remain only a concern for the shipping lanes.
Tropics Update: Formation chances have increased to 80% through the next 5 days. @wsvn pic.twitter.com/7AsLDrdfjn
