Florida Low Develops BUT Where Exactly Does It Go?? Pay Attn to Wxr for Flooding Rains, High Winds & Possible Tornadoes! Winter Still Around... Snow for the N Part of the USA. Fires in VA

 


Where to begin? To tell the story of a Low that's gonna form in the Gulf of Mexico and traverse the State of Florida negatively impacting everyone's weekend plans. As a Miami girl my focus is always on South Florida, especially considering a yearly huge event in Miami this weekend........an outdoor event in a bayside park downtown. So yes, if you are going to Ultra Music Festival you may want to keep the reality of rain in your brain before you go and get shocked that this could happen in March in Miami.  But currently Sunday looks awesome...


This is available on Spaghetti Models...

If can also move in closer to Naples FL or Tampa or Cedar Key, but this is NOT a tropical storm and it doesn't have a "center" and the most wicked weather will evolve in real time so if you live in Florida pay close attention to your weather in real time especially keeping your alarms on your weather apps. Strong winds, heavy rain and possible tornadoes are all possible; there will be video somewhere online of Miami flooding if this plays out as most feel it will.

Stay tuned for pinning down this system in real time as it develops or gets closer to developing.


Official NOAA forecast for Saturday.
Complex messy system across a wide area.


In Virginia the rain is welcome.
Warnings for Fire Weather are flying....
Carolinas/Virginia low humidity plus high winds.


In the Tropical World it's worth noting...
the name Idalia was NOT retired!




And coming soon to parts of the USA
More snow and winter weather on the way!
That's a large part of the country.
The South... SE not participating.

It's just that time of year. You can pretty much find some sort of weather anywhere you look. It's worth noting when you hear how snowless it's been in parts of the East Coast and the South know that's because the NW and the Rocky Mountains have been hogging all the snow having epic levels of winter weather this year. 

Same way a quiet hurricane season in Louisiana means that nothing hit their beautiful coastline, but Florida and  the Carolinas may argue in the same year it is a horrible hurricane season. Back in the 1980s when the Texas and neighboring states was the favored target for most huge 80s Hurricanes.... people in South Florida felt like we were getting off easy and we were.

Somewhere, someone is getting slammed with weather and someone somewhere else is complaining nothing is happening and it's boring.

In case you are living in the Florida Keys and are worried on this coming hurricane season (expected to be wild, wicked and probably weird......check out the always excellent Hurricane Preparation site from Monroe County!
