HAPPY FIRST FULL DAY OF FALL!
(Although South Florida won’t be jumping on the change-of-season-trend for at least another 4-6 weeks!) Our first week of Fall even looks quite steamy with sea breeze driven thunderstorms still a big part of our forecast. Afternoon high temperatures today and for the next 6-7 days will hold steady in the upper 80s and low 90s.
Sea breeze driven thunderstorms will develop across inland areas early this afternoon before shifting West towards the Gulf Coast. Afternoon high temperatures remain steady in the upper 80s and low 90s on our first full week of Fall! #miami #FLL #FLkeys pic.twitter.com/p6qUstKvz2

The Tropics are still as active as they were a weeks ago. We are currently tracking 4 systems over the Atlantic – two of those already tropical systems. Tropical Depression 11 has died but but Subtropical Storm Leslie formed in the Northern Atlantic.
Good news! Tropical Depression 11 near the Lesser Antilles has degenerated into a low pressure system. No more advisories with this one. pic.twitter.com/34ZEkvcCW9

Subtropical Storm Leslie has formed in the Northern Atlantic. Expected to be a short-lived cyclone. No threat to land. pic.twitter.com/ojR84Stnb7

And of course, we continue to closely track Tropical Storm Kirk as it races West across the Atlantic.
Kirk is forecast to hold on to its tropical storm status as it moves West across the Atlantic. Expected to reach the Windward Islands late next week. pic.twitter.com/DekkUDCtdM

While all storms are far from the United States for now, we’ll have to continue watching the tropics in the days to come (especially Kirk!).
Enjoy your first full day of Fall!
