So I'm guessing AWIPS will blow his mind?

Not only do we have a plume of Saharan dust overhead... we're also socked in with a fair amount of low-level moisture, too. Partly sunny skies today, at best. But we're drying out!

Recent rainfall delivered a massive improvement to this winter and spring's "extreme" drought - especially across the interior of South Florida. We're in a much better place now. NBC 6 South Florida

Can you spot the difference?

Staffed and operable? Absolutely. Fully staffed? Ummmmmmm. NHC_TAFB National Hurricane Center

3pm Saturday - not great but we know it could be worse! Saharan Air shutting down storm chances... a sun-filled weekend so far. Beach time has been the best time.

Shower and thunderstorm chances on the increase this week...before another plume of Saharan dust swings through this weekend. With 1-6" rainfall deficits across the area, yes, we need some rain! NBC 6 South Florida

"Strawberry moon" coming in 2 hours... Tuesday, 8:01 pm Hoping for some cloud breaks 🤞

Following the lead of Andy Hazelton -- forgot I grabbed a receipts from some "X" handles, too. "we're letting people know" "there are various possibilities" Yup, the overwhelming likelihood that nothing was going to happen...including what was modeled on day 10 in the GFS. 💀

NEW: Philip Klotzbach and his team maintain their Atlantic basin seasonal forecast numbers in today's scheduled update. 17 named storms, 9 hurricanes, 4 major hurricanes. NBC 6 South Florida

Expect more sunshine, fewer showers through the afternoon as the wet weather shifts inland. For the weekend, hazy sunshine makes a return with drier-than-average conditions expected. NBC 6 South Florida

Late start? Seems that way...but it isn't necessarily the "canary in the coalmine" for the season. In 2024, the first named system popped up on June 19th. Prior to that, it was 2014 that the first system didn't form until July 1st. Average "first storm" is June 20th. 🌴🌧️

Saturday will pick up where Friday left off. The rainy season is not exactly dialed in... so that means another sunny and (mostly) dry weekend! NBC 6 South Florida

The consistency is real! Low rain chances, lots of sunshine. Enjoy your weekend!

Today is Flag Day. 🇺🇸 It was officially adopted by Congress in 1949. Please observe the guidelines for displaying the flag - here's a quick overview from Veterans Affairs va.gov/opa/publicatio…

Fort Lauderdale checking in with sunny skies and 87 degrees. A fabulous forecast providing yet another weekend of beautiful weather.

Me? I get my weather from MikeTirico at the U.S. Open ⛳️ This man can do it all! 👏👏 John Banghoff

Unusually dry a we move into the middle of the month. The sunshine is nice, the temperatures have been reasonable...but we need some rain! NBC 6 South Florida

While we've had rain this month, it was front-loaded. The last several days have been hot and mainly dry... a trend that continues this week.

Rain chances peak mid-week before declining into the upcoming weekend. It's been a weird start to the rainy season....
