Today is May 3, 2026, and if you’re in North Palm Beach, you’re probably wondering what the weather has in store. Well, let me tell you, it looks like we might be in for a bit of a rollercoaster ride weather-wise. So, grab your umbrella and let’s dive into the details!
First off, the wind is blowing from the northeast at about 13 knots today, and there’s a good chance of showers and thunderstorms, especially after 3 PM. Yes, you heard it right—those dark clouds might just roll in! The sea state is relatively calm, with waves around 1 foot or less and a dominant period of 2 to 3 seconds. If you’re planning to hit the intracoastal waters, expect them to be a little choppy but still manageable.
Tonight’s Forecast
As night falls, the northeast winds are expected to pick up slightly, ranging from 12 to 14 knots. Showers and thunderstorms could make an appearance before 9 PM, and then again between 9 PM and 11 PM. So, if you’re out and about tonight, you might want to stay alert! The sea will remain around 1 foot, but the intracoastal waters will be moderately choppy.
Looking ahead to Monday, it seems like the weather isn’t letting up. Winds will be around 15 knots from the northeast, with a chance of more showers and thunderstorms. The sea conditions will stay similar, around 1 foot, but the intracoastal waters could become moderately choppy. Monday night brings a slight shift with east winds at 12 to 15 knots, and while there’s a chance of showers before 2 AM, the likelihood decreases afterward.
Midweek Weather
Fast forward to Tuesday, and we’re looking at east winds around 12 knots, with a chance of rain and perhaps a thunderstorm after 11 AM. The sea conditions will remain around 1 foot, making for a relatively calm day on the water. As night approaches, expect east-southeast winds between 9 to 11 knots and the chance of some showers or storms before 11 PM. The intracoastal waters will be easy to navigate, staying lightly choppy.
By Wednesday, we might finally get a break! The forecast calls for predominantly sunny weather with southeast winds at 7 to 10 knots. That sounds like a perfect day to enjoy the outdoors. The sea conditions will be calm once again, so if you’ve been itching to take your boat out, Wednesday could be the day to do it!
What to Keep in Mind
Now, here’s a little heads-up: higher winds and waves can pop up in and around thunderstorms. So, if you’re planning any maritime activities, it’s wise to keep an eye on the weather over a larger area. For safety concerns, check the zone forecast and NDFD graphics for broader weather information.
In summary, the weather in North Palm Beach over the next few days shows a mix of showers, potential thunderstorms, and some calmer moments to look forward to.
