What is happeningWritten from the numbers on this page

Dry for the moment, with rain moving in overnight

It is 82° with a dew point of 74°. That is oppressive air, and it is why it feels closer to 88°. The sky is partly cloudy.

The wind backs into the north-northwest around midnight, which is the turn that usually comes ahead of the change rather than after it. The first rain arrives between 3 AM and 4 AM. That leaves a usable window outdoors until about 3 AM, and it closes quickly after that.

Forecasts come from the National Weather Service's own computer models, and current conditions from the nearest reporting weather station. Both are served through the weather API. A forecast is guidance, not a warning, and anything the Weather Service has actually issued is on the live map.

The written summaries on this page are generated from the forecast data above, not by a meteorologist. Each sentence is a reading of the same numbers you can see, and no forecaster has reviewed them.

Place data from the US Census Bureau. Coordinates are the Census internal point for Parkland, and the forecast is for that location, not for every address inside the city limits, and a large city can have real weather differences from one side to the other.

How well can the network see Parkland?

The nearest Doppler radar is KAMX (Miami, FL), 50 miles to the SSW. A WSR-88D's lowest routine scan sits half a degree above horizontal, and the earth curves away beneath it, so by the time that beam reaches Parkland its center is about 3,600 ft above ground. That is comfortably inside the useful range. The lowest scan passes low enough over Parkland to show rotation in the part of a storm where tornadoes actually form.

The closest instrument actually measuring the air is KFXE · Ft Lauderdale Exec on the ASOS/AWOS network, 9.7 miles away. Near enough to be representative on most days, though a summer thunderstorm can soak one and miss the other entirely.

Beam height is the standard 4/3-earth approximation for the 0.5° scan and assumes normal refraction; it is where the center of the beam is, not its edges, and unusual temperature profiles bend it. Radar siting from the NWS WSR-88D network, station positions from the Florida observing network as of this build.
