WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Tropical downpours in spots are possible through this evening, then another round of rain/storms will arrive later tonight into the morning hours.

This appears to be our only shot at getting much-needed rain through the rest of the work week as his wave moves farther west into the Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday.

High pressure builds in from the east and Saharan Dust filters in so rain chances are slim to none from Wednesday afternoon through Friday.

Isolated storms are back in the forecast by the weekend but will have low-end coverage at this point.

Highs will soar into the mid-90s by Thursday/Friday due to a lack of clouds/rain, likely the hottest days out of the next five to seven days.

A disturbance in the far eastern Atlantic will run into Saharan Dust and drier air, so the National Hurricane Center says no development expected anywhere through the next five days.
