Possible Rough Weather Ahead

Looks as if we will have some strong to severe weather coming in tomorrow and Wednesday. This is associated with a warm front moving north over the area tomorrow while an impulse from the Gulf of Mexico moves towards the east. Upper level winds, at this time, look to be conducive for thunderstorms, possible super cells and isolated tornadoes.

Then on Wednesday as a cold front sweeps through models are indicating that a squall line may develop and with the timing with the heating of the day we may again see severe weather. The Storm Prediction Center is forecasting that southeast Florida, specifically south of Palm Beach could see the strongest activity with the interaction of the squall line with the sea breeze front.

Here is part of the Hazardous Weather Outlook from this evening:

TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY 

THUNDERSTORM OUTLOOK: A WARM FRONT IS FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS SOUTH
FLORIDA TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. STRONG OR EVEN SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE AS THIS FRONT MOVES NORTHWARD ACROSS THE
AREA. THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR ISOLATED TORNADOES, ALONG WITH GUSTY
WINDS.

ANOTHER ROUND OF POTENTIAL STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS COULD
IMPACT THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY, AHEAD OF AND ALONG A COLD FRONT
EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. AT THIS
TIME, IT APPEARS THAT THE PRIMARY IMPACTS ON WEDNESDAY WILL BE
DAMAGING WINDS.

THERE IS STILL UNCERTAINTY IN THE FORECAST, BUT RESIDENTS AND
VISITORS ARE ADVISED TO STAY TUNED TO THE LATEST FORECAST UPDATES ON
THIS DEVELOPING WEATHER SITUATION AS SEVERE WEATHER COULD AFFECT THE
AREA TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

Please keep updated on the conditions tomorrow and Wednesday.
