April 29: Day starts off nice and mild

Your Wednesday is starting off nice and mild. By the afternoon, expect warming winds to help highs reach the upper 80s. The fire burning near U.S. 41 has brought smoke and haze that will slowly start to move to inland parts of Broward and Miami-Dade later tonight. The winds will start to transition in from the south south-west tonight and into tomorrow. We may have to deal with air quality issues so keep it tuned to Local 10. The wind direction will also provide for temperatures to heat up. We will feel the hottest day of the year on Thursday as highs reach the 90s. So far this year, the warmest high we have had has been 88 degrees. The heat starts off the first few days of May .
