However, a couple of these showers could be slow-moving, giving us the much-needed rain. Parts of our area, especially Palm Beach County, are in severe drought conditions.
West Palm Beach typically gets on average 7.43 inches of rain so far this month, but it has gotten only 3.13 inches.

Daytime highs are continuing to sit near average at around 90 degrees.
Saharan dust is now starting to hit Florida, decreasing rain chances this weekend. Expect a 30-40% chance of showers tomorrow and Sunday.
