Friday, Oct. 23, is expected to bring a few passing showers, mainly near the coast and areas along or east of Interstate 95. Most heavier showers should remain offshore, and conditions are forecast to become quieter later in the day. Morning temperatures started in the upper 60s inland and low 70s elsewhere, with afternoon highs expected in the lower 80s.

A coastal flood advisory is already in effect, with minor flooding possible in vulnerable coastal areas during high tides. Friday’s high tide was expected around 7 a.m. in Miami and 7:15 a.m. in Fort Lauderdale.

Rain chances are expected to remain relatively low Saturday, though showers are possible as winds shift toward the northeast and begin to strengthen. By Sunday, a line of showers could develop near the coast, bringing repeated rounds of rain to some areas and potentially significant accumulations, particularly in coastal communities and east of I-95.

The strongest winds and highest rain chances are forecast for Sunday through Tuesday. Forecaster Dave Warren said the pattern could bring substantial rainfall, while persistent northeast winds may push additional water toward the shoreline. The greatest coastal flooding concerns are expected Monday and Tuesday, when strong winds and high tides could compound flooding in low-lying neighborhoods.

Residents in coastal and flood-prone areas should monitor changing conditions as the weekend approaches. Afternoon highs are expected to remain in the lower 80s, and no Atlantic tropical systems are forecast to develop over the next seven days.
