Strong gusty winds will continue to usher in a few tiny showers. This time showers will be confined across the upper Keys tonight before clearing Monday morning. We will watch for pleasant conditions to persist again Monday.

Temperatures will reach the lower 80s all the while staying mostly dry.Plan for mostly dry conditions all week long. The lack of rainfall could intensify drought conditions across our region.
