The 10 Day model Blend Temperature Trend.  Warmth continues.

The 16 Day EURO Ensembles.  Finally done with the COLD for good?   Hopefully….

BEACH FORECAST:  It’s much cooler at the Beach – obviously because of the onshore breeze off the chilly 64 degree Gulf water. Moderate rip current risk.

POLLEN FORECAST:  Glad I’m not a pollen sufferer.  I know many of you are.  Not good. Height of the season.

Thanks for reading this Blog this morning. The next scheduled complete Blog update and Video Forecast Discussion is scheduled for the 4 o’clock hour on Monday morning.  Have a great weekend.
