A Florida story
The meeting of the wet masses

A convergence of two wet air masses is triggering wet weather across Florida today.
A convergence of two wet air masses is triggering wet weather across Florida today.

Floridians are no strangers to muggy days, but sometimes it's tough to see just how this forecast comes about. The WindRadar is demonstrating the meeting of two wet air masses bringing about today's downpours.

The WeatherRadar shows wet and stormy weather moving across the Peninsula today, but the WindRadar is showing more to this story. Saturated winds moving out of the western Atlantic and the eastern Gulf are converging, creating a potent environment for afternoon downpours.

Many downpours will occur just as commuters hit the road. The Weather & Radar app provides real-time alerts to notify you when heavy rainfall or strong thunderstorms are nearby.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
