WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Southwest flow will continue to bring in plenty of moisture through the week - leading to high storm chances.

Saharan Dust will still make its way into the area Monday which will bring hazy sunshine - but scattered storms should help to clear the dust temporarily.

The first day of summer begins Wednesday and a high chance of storms will remain through the rest of the week.

Invest 92L now has an 90% chance to develop in the next few days. If this disturbance gets a name - it would be Bret.
 
It is located several hundred miles southwest of Cabo Verde islands and tracking westward at 20 mph across the central Atlantic. As it tracks over very warm sea surface temperatures, there is very little to no wind shear which is another reason why the tropical wave is going to strengthen

It is still too soon to know the exact track but there is plenty of time to watch the system.

MONDAY: Mostly sunny to start. Highs: Low 90s Heat index values as high as 100 degrees. Winds: WSW 10-15

TUESDAY: Mostly sunny skies early. Highs near 90 degrees. Winds: SW 15 mph with gusts to 20. 70% scattered sotrms
