Miami Expecting Bad Weather - The Boat Show Better Batten Down the Hatches...



Well... depending on who you listen to .. it's going to rain today a lot in Miami. Picture was taken this morning, low clouds, full of warm tropical moisture moving into the Miami area just after sunrise.. as promised by the National Weather Service!

Severe Weather expected to move in shortly. Strong downbursts, downdrafts, straight line winds... all those sexy words that meteorologists love. Even more so.. the ever popular pre-frontal boundary line. If that doesn't sound weather sexy what does?

Isolated Tornadoes.

Seriously.. the experts are talking, not my crazy weather friends online who will be out chasing today I am sure..

I've been told to expect heavy rain and wild weather depending on who to listen to..

The Weather Radio is begging (or as close to begging as an automated voice can beg) for people to keep batteries in their weather radios in case of sudden severe weather and for residents and visitors to pay special attention to the weather.

In layman's terms...

There is warm, hot, moisture moving in from the South... SSW and there is a strong front amplifying (don't you LOVE when frontal boundaries amplify??) and it's pushing down here hard... and if you look at the Tampa Radar moisture is coming in from the Gulf.

So... that is like one wicked love triangle guys and girls... the moisture from the south starts to spin as the storms from the Gulf roll in and when you get that mixing of all the wild energy...

You end up with shake, rattle and roll... severe weather style.

Close the windows on the East and South side of the house, take in any small things that could go flying as winds will be strong today and could gust up to 40 miles per hour or strong depending on which cute weatherman or weathergirl you listen to and... watch out for those isolated tornadoes tonight. Keep the batteries in the old weather radio and keep off major appliances while you sleep.

Don't say I didn't warn you...

What a day to go shoot some good weather footage.. and enjoy the wind in your hair!
