High pressure building over the Gulf will keep South Florida’s weather quiet and comfortable. Winds will be light out of the north, and dry air higher in the atmosphere will limit widespread rain. That said, there is still just enough moisture near the surface along the Atlantic and East Coast to allow for a few brief, stray showers today. Rain chances are low overall but not zero — especially near the coast — which is why forecast rain chances were nudged slightly higher into the 10% to 20% range.

Overnight and early Friday morning could bring some patchy fog, especially across interior areas west of Interstate 95. Temperatures will remain on the warm side for this time of year, with afternoon highs in the upper 70s to low 80s both today and Friday. Morning lows Friday will dip into the mid-50s inland and mid-60s along the East Coast.
