Brian: Heavy rain affecting Marco Island, Naples Manor.. moving offshore

Our radar is estimating 0.5 - 1.0" of rain over the last hour in far southwest Collier County where these storms are now located. They will be moving offshore over the next few minutes and you should be dry by 5 PM in these areas.
 
Elsewhere, a few storms also located near SR-29 through Collier County and some more isolated activity a little farther north toward the Lee Island Coast. All storms are moving to the east at a fairly steady rate, so excessive rainfall is not likely today.
 
It was another hot day across southwest Florida with temperatures in the low to mid 90's most spots. A similar set-up over the next few afternoons (if not a bit drier Wednesday and Thursday) as drier air moves in to the north side of a tropical wave in the Caribbean.
 
The latest on your forecast is just 17 minutes away on WINK-TV.
 
Brian
