Good morning! A quick update for you this morning.. high pressure has moved a little farther to the east which should allow for more of a southeast, then southwest, wind today. That southerly breeze will allow more moisture to push toward southwest Florida in advance of a front that will get here during the afternoon on Friday. So, over the next couple of days, expect an increase in the cloud cover each day (but still mostly sunny today!). For tomorrow, there's a slight chance of a shower deep inland along the afternoon sea breeze front.. with that better chance of rain moving in on Friday with the weak cold front. Depending on just how late in the afternoon the front gets here, we may even see a thunderstorm or two inland as the atmosphere destabilizes a bit Friday. In the meantime, here are the Wednesday forecast numbers:
Naples Mostly Sunny; High 83
Bonita Springs Mostly Sunny; High 85
Fort Myers Mostly Sunny; High 85
Cape Coral Mostly Sunny; High 84
Port Charlotte Mostly Sunny; High 82
Hendry Co. Partly Cloudy; High 85
Glades Co. Partly Cloudy; High 84
DeSoto Co. Mostly Sunny; High 84
ALSO! Later today, the team of Dr. Phil Klotzbach and Dr. William Gray from Colorado State will release their revised numbers for the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season. We anticipate those numbers to be bumped up today as, among other things, El Nino continues to weaken in the Pacific (this was largely responsible for our fairly quiet season last year). More on that later.. see you on WINK!
