Good morning! A little bit of drier air is trying to move south across the peninsula this morning but it looks like the driest will remain just out of reach of southwest Florida. This will lead to scattered showers and storms this afternoon, first inland and then finishing the day along the coast. In fact, already this morning there are some showers and storms affecting the east coast but these should fizzle out before they get a chance to move west of Lake Okeechobee.
For tomorrow, the steering currents are very light and showers and storms should drift around SWFL during the afternoon. On Friday, the steering currents shift slightly toward an onshore direction which should guide the best chances of rain toward inland areas to finish off the week.
Today's forecast:
Naples Increasing Clouds Scattered PM Storms; High 90
Bonita Springs Increasing Clouds Scattered PM Storms; High 91
Fort Myers Increasing Clouds Scattered PM Storms; High 91
Cape Coral Increasing Clouds Scattered PM Storms; High 91
Port Charlotte Increasing Clouds Scattered PM Storms; High 91
Hendry Co. Increasing Clouds Scattered Storms; High 89
Glades Co. Increasing Clouds Scattered Storms; High 88
DeSoto Co. Increasing Clouds Scattered PM Storms; High 90
Have a great Wednesday!
Brian
