South Florida enjoyed a cool, sunny Sunday, with highs in the low 80s after temperatures dipped into the upper 50s overnight. Weston recorded 57 degrees, while Deerfield Beach and Miramar hit 59 and Miami Beach reached 61, according to the forecast data cited by CBS News Miami.
The pleasant stretch is expected to end soon. A developing area of low pressure will send moisture into the region beginning Tuesday, setting up an extended period of wet weather that could last through Saturday. Rain chances are forecast to stay elevated from Tuesday through the end of the workweek and into the weekend.
Forecasters said the heaviest rain’s exact timing and location remain uncertain. Repeated downpours over the same areas could produce flash flooding later in the week, so residents should prepare for a much wetter pattern.
Temperatures are expected to stay in the low 80s for most of the week, slightly below the seasonal average of about 81 degrees. The forecast does not call for a return to the mid- to upper 80s seen before the recent cool-down.
Beachgoers face a moderate rip current risk on Atlantic beaches Sunday, and boating conditions are expected to be favorable. Monday should be mostly sunny before clouds build.
