The NEXT Weather Team is tracking afternoon storms across Broward and Miami-Dade Counties on Sunday afternoon and early evening. 

The storms, fed by tropical moisture blowing in from the Gulf, will start to pop up around 2 p.m. in Broward County, before expanding into Miami-Dade around 4 p.m. The storms will pack wind gusts and localized heavy rain as they move out to sea.

This pattern of afternoon storms will continue throughout the week.

Tropical Storm Fernand is moving north in the Atlantic.  It will remain a “fish storm” and will not impact the Continental United States, Bermuda or Canada. 

The National Hurricane Center has increased the chances of a tropical wave developing into a system later this week in the Caribbean.  It is expected to move past the Leeward Islands early this week.
