Brian: A few coastal showers in Collier this morning... more inland storms later today

There are a few showers this morning south of coastal Collier County that are moving toward the coast line in the weak southeasterly flow at the steering level. Recently, there were a few showers nearby to Marco Island, these are now moving northward along CR-951 headed toward US-41.. if it holds together long enough, we may see some showers move as far north as the Alley/Golden Gate. Generally, though, the trend will be for these showers to fall apart as they spend more time over land.
 
Early this afternoon, we may see some showers and storms near the coastline but, again, most of this activity will push inland with time this afternoon as the deep steering currents are from the southwest. That means the highest chance of rain later today will be from near Immokalee to Lehigh Acres to Arcadia. A similar setup for tomorrow with morning coastal showers near the Lee Island Coast and coastal Collier; more widespread coastal showers are a possibility on Friday and Saturday mornings as an upper level disturbance moves by.
 
Here are today's forecast numbers:

Naples  Partly Cloudy  Mainly Dry; High 89
Bonita Springs Partly Cloudy  Mainly Dry; High 91
Fort Myers Partly Cloudy  Hot & Humid; High 91
Cape Coral Partly Cloudy  Hot & Humid; High 91
Port Charlotte Partly Cloudy  Hot & Humid; High 91
Hendry Co. Clouds & Sun  Scattered PM Storms; High 89
Glades Co. Clouds & Sun  Scattered PM Storms; High 88

Have a great Wednesday!
