After several days with only very limited rainfall, the weather pattern is set to shift in a big way across South Florida starting Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

A much more humid air mass is already moving in from the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico, signaling the start of a far more unsettled stretch that could last through the weekend and even into early next week.<\/p>\n

The change becomes firmly established on Thursday, as winds turn more from the south and southwest, allowing deep tropical moisture to stream into the region. <\/p>\n

Weather models show extremely high moisture levels for this time of year, which will favor much more frequent and organized showers and thunderstorms.<\/p>\n

Rain chances will rise significantly Thursday afternoon, reaching 70% to 80% across much of South Florida. <\/p>\n

In addition, the Weather Prediction Center (WPC) is already keeping a flash flood risk in place for parts of the East Coast, including metro areas.<\/p>\n

While widespread severe weather is not expected, some storms could bring torrential downpours, frequent lightning and strong wind gusts. The main concern will be rapid water buildup on streets, in urban areas, and in spots with poor drainage.<\/p>\n

Forecasts indicate this wet, unstable pattern could hold for much of the weekend and possibly into early next week. <\/p>\n

Several atmospheric disturbances will continue to move through the region, keeping the potential for repeated rounds of rain, isolated strong storms, and episodes of localized flooding.<\/p>\n
