Fire Weather Planning Forecast for the Florida Keys
National Weather Service Key West FL
444 AM EDT Sat Sep 19 2026

.Discussion...
An upper level low will move across the central Florida peninsula
and eventually into the Eastern Gulf waters later into the
weekend. This system will bring a wet weather pattern across the
Keys over the coming days. Daily rain chances will remain well
above normal with rain chances peaking around 60% to 70% and RH
values bottoming out in the mid 60s in the afternoon and recover
into the 80s overnight. Surface winds will be light to gentle out
of the east to northeast at the start of the weekend before winds
shift to a more east to southeast direction later in the weekend. Rain
chances will also continue to remain elevated into next week, as
deep moisture lingers across the Florida Keys in the wake of the
departing weather disturbance.
