Good morning! Like we talked about yesterday, we're off to a much cooler start this morning -- most notably along the coast, where we were able to return rain to yesterday afternoon. Those showers and storms that formed helped take some of the moisture out of the atmosphere, lowering the dewpoint temperature and allowing the evening temperatures to drop more than they have over the last several days. So we wake up this morning to temperatures in the low to mid 70's most spots with plenty of sun in the morning forecast.
This afternoon, expect just a few isolated showers and storms along the afternoon Gulf breeze in Collier County and perhaps south Lee County. Otherwise, drier air has moved in along with the new steering currents and the next couple of days should be pretty quiet. The chance of rain ramps up into the weekend, especially Saturday as some moisture moves in from the north and east.
Today's forecast:
Naples Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 92
Bonita Springs Partly Cloudy Mainly Dry; High 94
Fort Myers Partly Cloudy Hot & Humid; High 94
