Memorial Day looks very typical for late May across South Florida.
I’m expecting a chance of spotty showers and storms — with the best chances inland into SW Florida. Temperatures will be pretty close to normal with highs near 90 and lows at night in the upper-70s.
The only issue is breezy conditions continuing off the Atlantic, which will lead to an elevated rip current risk for beach-goers.
I’m not expecting too many changes through midweek. However, a stormy pattern change is coming late week as a plume of deep tropical moisture surges across Florida. I’m expecting much higher rain chances and this could mean a heavy rain threat. It’s still too far out for specifics but this could be some good drought relief.
TROPICAL UPDATE: The National Hurricane Center isn’t expecting any development over the next 7 days. Hurricane Season officially begins June 1st.
