West Palm Beach Weather: Clocks Fall Back Tonight, Then a Wet Sunday for the Last Day of Early Voting
Halloween night stays warm in West Palm Beach before clocks turn back an hour at 2 a.m., and Sunday — the final day of early voting in Palm Beach County — is the wettest day of the weekend in the station's live forecast, with a 65 percent rain chance.
West Palm Beach ends Halloween warm and mostly dry. The station's live weather feed read 83.1 degrees early Saturday evening, feeling like 90.3, on a day that topped out at 83.7 with an overnight low of 76.5 and a 29 percent rain chance. Overnight, daylight saving time ends: clocks fall back one hour at 2 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 1, giving Halloween night an extra hour.
Sunday is the day to plan around. The feed puts Sunday's high at 81.4 and the low at 76.1, with the rain chance up to 65 percent — the wettest day of the weekend, and the final day of early voting in Palm Beach County, when the county's early voting sites run 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The National Weather Service in Miami also keeps a Coastal Flood Advisory in effect for coastal Palm Beach County through Sunday, with a high rip current risk and a High Surf Advisory running through at least Monday morning, so beach plans carry the same caution as the king-tide week that preceded it.
The unsettled pattern holds into the work week before it dries out. Monday carries a 65 percent rain chance with a high of 82.2 and a low of 74.7, and Election Day on Tuesday stays unsettled at a 59 percent rain chance, a high of 83.1 and a low of 74.1. Rain chances then fall through the week in the feed — 36 percent Wednesday, 20 percent Thursday and zero by Friday.
