WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. —Another scorcher is on tap for Sunday with hot temperatures and high humidity. Storm coverage stays around 30% for eastern areas and 40% near the Lake.
High temperatures will climb into the lower to middle 90s Sunday. Humidity will make it feel closer to 100 to 105 degrees during the afternoon.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop during the afternoon and evening, with the highest coverage focused across inland and western portions of South Florida. A few showers and storms are possible at the coast in the morning.
Sunday night into Monday, a plume of drier air associated with the Saharan Air Layer begins moving into South Florida. That should temporarily reduce rain chances to start the new workweek while allowing plenty of sunshine to return.
The quieter pattern won't last long. Forecast models indicate a frontal boundary approaching Florida by the middle of next week, bringing another increase in afternoon showers and thunderstorms from Tuesday through Friday.
If you're heading to the beach this weekend, a moderate risk of rip currents continues along Atlantic beaches. Always swim near a lifeguard and use caution if entering the surf.
