Love talking about the weather, technology, and family (and not in that order).

Saturday – Afternoon Showers Ahead of a Cold Front

No real change to our expected weather today.  Cold front is in the north/central Florida area with an area of showers and thunderstorms.  

We will be warm through the morning with a high near 85F. After 12 noon we will have an increase in shower activity and possible thunderstorms through the afternoon.  Then clearing and turning much cooler into the overnight hours.  HRRR brings the activity in our area around 2pm.


Then a quick cool down after the passage of the front.


Sunday will be nice with breezy conditions and not as warm with a high of 66F.  Here is the latest GFS highs and lows through next weekend:


If outside today keep an eye on the lightning and take shelter if you hear thunder.

Cold Front Sweeps Through on Saturday

Quick update for the weekend – cooler weather is on its way as a front will sweep through the area late tomorrow afternoon and will be offshore by 7pm.  This can be seen in the WPC forecast map for Saturday evening.


We will have a steep temp change with some showers as the front approaches then passes.  Latest HRRR brings the front through early afternoon.  The model gives us a high of 84 prior to the rain and in the hour after the frontal passage (FROPA) we have a nine degree drop.

I will update the timing nad effect in the morning.  

A couple notes from today’s weather, visibilities at Pompano Airport were .25 miles between 530 and 535am this morning.  Also we reached a high of 80F.  

Also our thoughts and prayers for those affected by the FLL violence this afternoon.  Weird watching the coverage these evening for a place I know fairly well.
