High pressure is shifting farther into the Atlantic, causing winds to become lighter and turn more southeasterly through the weekend. For South Florida, most of the morning hours will stay dry before isolated storms develop in the afternoon and early evening. While the highest storm coverage will remain inland and across Southwest Florida, some storms could drift into portions of the East Coast Metro before sunset.

Moisture levels will continue to increase on Saturday and Sunday, leading to an increase in rain chances with slightly higher coverage of afternoon and evening storms across South Florida. Rain chances over the weekend are around 50 percent, mainly during the afternoon hours. Temperatures will remain hot, with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s and heat index values reaching 100 to 105 degrees. Nights will stay warm and humid, with lows mainly in the mid-to-upper 70s.
