Ready for a change?

Of late rain has been on repeat mode across south Florida Hang on though there seems to be an end in sight The wet conditions ramped at the start of September when a weak front stalled over the state Then after that at last fizzled another one did the same thing Slow-moving storms are still in the mix through the middle of the week While it s hard to pinpoint exact times for the activity the majority of wet conditions will happen between Lunchtime and Dinnertime That means during the mid-day and afternoon hours we ll need to watch for heavy rain probable that could lead to flash flooding Wednesday and Thursday If there s chosen positive effects of the gloomy pattern it could be that we ve been able to catch up from a drier-than-usual Rainy Season Both Miami-Dade and especially Broward County had been running a rain deficit for months We ve been able to recover across plenty of areas although still lagging below normal for the Ft Lauderdale area Conditions will take a turn at the end of the week That s when a big chunk of tropical moisture shifts southward While it won t entirely shut the valve and put the end to rain showers won t be essential or long lasting Once a front passes by we ll notice improvement gradually going into the weekend You should be able to feel better about making outdoor plans too with more sunshine and less rain As for temperatures they ll remain quite hot Remember it s not until October at least until passing fronts have cool air backing into south Florida September will stay steamy but become less stormy from the weekend into next week
