It’s that time of year in Key West, when weather reports begin to forecast hot, sunny skies– with a chance of thunderstorms hovering at around 30% daily. Don’t fret! This doesn’t mean you need to start unpacking the board games and scheduling rainy day trips to the movies. Here in the tropics, it’s not unusual for there to be a 30% chance of rain each day. When they do occur, these brief thunderstorms are usually a quick, intense burst of rain that never interrupts the day for very long. In fact, they’re usually quite refreshing! With humidity levels usually hovering around 70%, it can feel like you’re swimming down Duval Street…until a short break of rain swoops in to cool everything down. So when you see the weather report calling for scattered storms, don’t cancel your day at the beach– just bring a dry towel and relax, sit back and enjoy the show. It’ll be over in a minute or two, and that blazing sun will be back to dry you off in a jiffy. It’s the island way!

Break out the SPF…
This week is shaping up to be hot and brutally humid, with temperatures expected to stay within the 80′s and the humidity forecasted at almost 80%! The perfect week to take a stroll down to the waterfront and hop onto one of the day boats heading out on the water, or to enjoy a classic cuban coffee– iced, of course! Your concierge friends at the front desk have a list of the perfect sunny day activities for you and your loved ones to enjoy. Just remember to load up on the sunblock and stay hydrated. For a day at the beach, nothing beats Fort Zachary Taylor, Key West’s favorite beach. With opportunities for picnicking, swimming, snorkeling, fishing, hiking and more, it’s a wonderful place to take advantage of these pristine, sweltering days! This Week’s Weather ForecastPull out the sunblock and pack your beach bag — it’s going to be a hot one! This week is going to be perfect for catching some rays at Fort Zachary Taylor or catching up on your reading by one of the pools at Parrot Key. Highs in the 80′s with nighttime lows not far behind, this is prime flip-flop & tank-top weather. Why not take the kids down to Flamingo Crossing for a homemade ice cream (a local’s favorite) or zip on over to the White Street Fishing Pier and enjoy the breezes coming off the water? If the sun gets to be too much, head into the Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory to take a rest and enjoy an oasis off Duval’s hustle and bustle. Don’t forget to stay hydrated and load up on that SPF…nothing throws a wrench into vacation plans like a scorching sunburn! And remember: Sunset Celebration, Key West’s nightly arts & music celebration, is happening every night over at Mallory Square. Have a wonderful week! Today’s Weather at Parrot KeyIt is 72°F and sunny right now at Parrot Key, with some gusting winds from the northeast. There was a light rain in the early morning, which has left some moisture on all of the plants in our garden and sunning area. This week is expect to stay sunny with some partial clouds forming mid week, periodically producing showers at night. The wind is expected to kick up to almost 3o kts today and tomorrow, and then die down later this week to 5-10 kts. Fishing is very hot right now, particularly for barracuda and reef species, so if you can brave the slightly higher than normal winds, this is the time to book a trip. Sunset tonight is at 5:38 pm, expect performances at mallory square to start around 4. Today’s Weather at Parrot KeyIt is 72°F and overcast right now at Parrot Key, but some rays of sun are already poking through, and it looks like it will be sunny in a couple hours. There is a 13 mph wind from the north, but that is expected to die down to about 5 mph later in the day. Today is the perfect weather for a stroll around key west or hanging out at any of our four sparkling pools.
