beautiful, beautiful to look at town from mallory square as the people are gathering, the sun is going to set, it's going to be awesome there. fort lauderdale not too bad, either. we see a few clouds out there but nothing threatening about those skies. we'll definitely take it. temperatures now in the mid-70s. marathon 77 degrees there. we s the 75 in fort lauderdale and also the 77 in hialeah. the forecast for the evening pretty benign. winds right now from the east just 11 miles an hour. we'll have a few clouds out there in some of your neighborhoods but dry conditions will continue to rule for the rest of tonight. and by 10:00 p.m. we'll see some lower 70s on the temperature map. so the breeze not quite as stiff as it was this time yesterday. but you definitely notice it if you are out near the beaches. winds sustained 10 to 15 miles an hour. we're getting that flow around is area of high pressure just off the southeast coast. our weather story has not really changed all week long. our weather has just been
