WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A stalled out frontal boundary and an upper level disturbance have been responsible for our cloudy, damp weather recently.

Even though humidity levels are down slightly this week, overall, the atmosphere remains very tropical.
So with these two features still fairly close by, another round of downpours and thunderstorms are likely during the day on Friday.
The good news is the weekend looks much better. It'll be hot out there and muggy, but the threat for thunderstorms diminishes.
BEACH FORECAST
The Treasure Coast will continue to see a high risk for rip currents through Friday morning. Otherwise, it's a decent day with sunshine occasionally giving way to a pop up shower or thunderstorm.
BOATING CONDITIONS
Northerly winds of 10-15 knots will continue to produce bumpy conditions on the water. Expected seas of 2-3 feet. If you're crossing over the Gulf Steam into the Bahamas it could be a little bumpy from time to time. Especially if you're leaving from the Treasure Coast. Conditions are a little smoother the farther south you go through coastal Palm Beach County.
