Severe, flash flood risk for northern Florida, heat for all

2 weeks ago | wqcs.org | Irene Sans

Plenty of moisture is streaming in from the Gulf, controlled by a high-pressure system located east of Florida (remember, high-pressure systems spin clockwise, so the moisture is coming in from the south-southwest over northern Florida). This moisture and a series of fronts approaching the Panhandle and North Florida will increase the chance of showers and storms for the rest of the weekend and early next week.

An extensive cold front will continue to inch closer to the Southeast this weekend. There is a chance for severe thunderstorms to occur across South Carolina through the beginning of the week. Overall, there’s a slight risk for severe storms for Saturday through Monday, but more activity is probable beyond the start of the week. Saturday evening: A severe thunderstorm watch is in effect for the Upstate. It will be valid until 9 p.m. Saturday, as severe thunderstorms will push from east to west.
June is known for brewing messy storms near Florida

3 weeks ago | wusf.org | Irene Sans

June is full of events. Most notably, we officially welcome the start of the Atlantic hurricane season. As we know, tropical storms can develop if we have certain ingredients and dynamics in the atmosphere. First, water temperatures need to be at least 80°F to provide enough water vapor for storms to get started. Once we have a cluster of storms, we need them to organize. As the storms become better organized, we need windshear, the change of wind direction with height, to stay relatively low.
Saharan dust: the good and the bad

3 weeks ago | wusf.org | Irene Sans

The first large plume of Saharan dust is set to arrive in Florida. These tiny particles travel thousands of miles through the Saharan Dust Layer (SAL), which is located between half and 3.5 miles from the surface. Sahara dust has been found in virtually all parts of the globe—even atop glaciers at or near both poles. On average, a new plume or layer arrives in the Western Hemisphere about once a week or every other week, but their density can significantly vary.
Stormy days for Florida; rainfall for some could exceed 6 inches

3 weeks ago | wusf.org | Irene Sans

Florida´s active pattern continues. The same front that produced numerous showers at the end of last week became stationary near Lake Okeechobee, producing enough instability to keep the storms active on Sunday. On Monday, severe storms were moving across parts of Southeast Florida, where flooding was reported in Miami. The front is starting to move slowly north, and a low-pressure system is forming from it.

Florida's get stormier as cold front pushes through

4 weeks ago | wusf.org | Irene Sans

Florida is about to become much more active for more people as we head into the weekend and possibly throughout the weekend. A cold front is trying to push over the state, increasing the chances for thunderstorm activity throughout the weekend. A cold front will pass through Florida this weekend, increasing the chances of rain for the peninsula. Storms could have broader coverage, not just focused on inland locations, as it has mainly been this previous week.
Unsettle weather continues and ramps up for Friday

1 month ago | southcarolinapublicradio.org | Irene Sans

The soggy pattern persists across South Carolina. There’s still a chance for some isolated storms on Thursday afternoon. The chances of precipitation will continue to increase on Friday as a frontal boundary moves through the state. On Friday, this cold front will enhance the chance for strong to severe thunderstorms from west to east across the Palmetto State. Some of these thunderstorms could produce damaging winds of at least 58 mph, hail, and we cannot rule out a tornado.
