Hot and Humid Conditions Persist in South Florida; Tropical Depression Likely in Gulf
South Florida is experiencing another hot and humid day, with feels-like temperatures reaching triple digits from Fort Lauderdale to Key West. Despite the intense heat, no heat advisory has been issued as conditions fall just below the threshold. Rainfall is expected to be minimal, offering little relief from the oppressive heat. Meanwhile, the National Hurricane Center is closely monitoring a low-pressure system in the Gulf of Mexico, which has an 80% probability of developing into a Tropical Depression either today or Monday. Early models suggest the system will impact the Florida Panhandle, particularly areas from Panama City Beach to Pensacola. Hurricane Hunter aircraft are scheduled to investigate the system later this afternoon. (Source: CBS News Miami, published on Sun, 19 Jul 2026 12:10:19 GMT)
