Good morning! The long-awaited brighter, drier weather has moved into the area and will largely be here through the weekend. Responsible is that very strong area of high pressure aloft -- the same one that has been bringing record (in some places, all-time record!) heat to the Northeast and Mid Atlantic. Here in southwest Florida, expect just some isolated storms this afternoon, with most of the area staying dry. Highs will be in the mid 90's with slightly cooler air arriving at the beaches only late as a weak northwest Gulf breeze kicks in. Similar weather pattern sets up tomorrow with just a slightly higher chance of rain. Here is today's forecast:
Naples Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 93
Bonita Springs Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 94
Fort Myers Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 94
Cape Coral Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 93
Port Charlotte Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 94
Hendry Co. Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 92
Glades Co. Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 91
DeSoto Co. Partly Cloudy Isolated PM Storms; High 91
Have a great Thursday!
Brian
