NWS Miami reports a Severe Thunderstorm Warning in effect until 3:30 p.m. for northwestern Collier County with 60 mph wind gusts and quarter-size hail. Separate from the warning, the forecast discussion highlights scattered afternoon/evening thunderstorms and a high rip current risk for the Palm Beaches expanding south along the East Coast by Monday morning.
Sunday stays mostly sunny and warm in Boca Raton with gusty east winds and only a slight late-day shower chance. The bigger concern is the beach: a high rip current risk continues, with choppy surf and rougher swimming conditions. Rain and thunder chances increase Monday into Tuesday as deeper moisture moves in.
Mostly sunny and warm in Boca Raton today with a small late-afternoon storm chance. Winds stay onshore and breezy, and the pattern turns wetter Sunday into early week with higher rain and thunderstorm coverage.
Friday brings a bright, warm day in Boca Raton with an onshore breeze and a growing rip current threat along the beaches. Shower and thunderstorm chances increase this weekend into early next week as a more typical late-spring pattern settles in.
Thursday brings above-normal heat and plenty of sun in Boca Raton, but a few showers or thunderstorms could pop up late in the day. Conditions turn quieter tonight, then a breezier onshore pattern builds this weekend with more regular shower and storm chances.
