SUMMARY: South Florida faces tricky weather with about a 40% chance of scattered showers and storms today and tomorrow, potentially causing minor flooding from heavier downpours. Rain chances will decrease by the end of the workweek and into the weekend, becoming more isolated, thanks to Saharan dust moving into the region. Temperatures will be in the upper 80s to lower 90s but feel warmer due to humidity. While storm models have been unreliable, the heaviest activity is expected westward. The Saharan dust should help keep the region mostly storm-free by Father’s Day, lowering rain chances further.

NEXT Weather meteorologist Shane Hinton says a few scattered showers are possible in the afternoon with highs in the upper 80s.
