Local Weather: The southeast United States remain under the influence of high pressure providing for a strong ocean breeze. That very same breeze will be responsible for driving in a few stray showers. Rain chances will remain low through most of the week with a good mix of sun and clouds. Temperatures will also be a touch warmer going into Wednesday with a lighter breeze. For now, if you are making it a long holiday weekend and planning to enjoy South Florida waters, use caution. Advisories remain in place for swimmers and boaters.
