Mostly Sunny Start with a Few Scattered Storms

A mostly sunny start will transition into a partly cloudy afternoon with a few scattered showers & storms lingering into the evening hours. There will be more sunshine and a drop in the rain chances (even lower humidity!) as some drier air works its way down the Florida peninsula through the middle part of the work week. Daytime highs will be running a couple of degrees above average in the low to mid 90s with overnight lows near 73 degrees.

Tropical Storm Maria is swirling just to the north and west of Puerto Rico this morning. As of the 11am advisory, winds are sustained at 50 mph, with a westerly movement at 2mph. The current track of Maria keeps it east of the Bahamas as it makes more of a northerly turn by Tuesday & Wednesday and eventually into the Northern Atlantic, posing no threat to SWFL or the eastern seaboard of the U.S.
