Brian: Developing low will bring heavy rain to south & coastal areas next couple days...

Good morning! We're starting the day with some areas of heavy rain along the Collier coast, generally affecting the Marco Island area as I write this. While the low a little west of Key West is not a tropical system yet, it is showing some evidence of banding on radar this morning. As this low gradually works westward, the chance of heaviest rain will be through areas south of the Caloosahatchee and along our southwest Florida coastline. Through tomorrow, expect a chance of rain both in the morning and in the afternoon.
 
The important thing to remember here is that, even if this low does become a tropical depression or even storm, it doesn't change our forecast much at all in the area. Just plan of plenty of clouds and higher rain chances over the next couple of days before drier and warmer weather builds in at week's end.
 
Have a great day!
 
Brian
