A hot, dry air mass from the Sahara is currently affecting South Florida. This air mass is expected to remain in place through the start of the week. The presence of this Saharan air mass is having an impact on the weather, leading to a reduction in afternoon storms.

However, it is also contributing to increased heat in the area. Further information on the current weather situation is available from CBS12, including details on the expected duration and effects of the Saharan air mass.
