Rainy times are on the way and some of it could mean business (heavy downpours and potential flooding). The reason? It’s due to the approach of a Florida Front and expanding moisture plume. These features are settling south and east, eventually to stretch out across the south Florida region. Yo u can detect the position of the Front from the satellite and radar shown blow. It’s triggering areas of rain, especially over the Gulf waters. Forecast models show developing downpours. The latest guidance shows future impacts across Broward and Miami-Dade from the very start of the day, on Tuesday. Some of these rain bands will be sluggish to “move along”.
