Dry weather for the rest of the evening. Low humididty will be with us for another day. Rain by the weekend.

Watching a northeast breeze contiune for the next few days. This will keep the drier weather in place for another day or so. But by Friday and into the weekend, more moiture returns. You can expect to feel more humidity return and a few showers will be in the area by then. A weak low is trying to develop south of florida. If this low develops and we expect it to, this will bring rain across the region through the weekend and into early next week. We aren't expecting a lot of rain, less than .50" most likely.
 
The tropics are quiet.

Still dry

Look for a few more dry days and nights this week before the chance of rain increases by the weekend. - Jim

A Taste of Fall...

Temperatures this morning dropped into the upper 50s across a few northern locations and inland spots, but with plenty of sunshine this afternoon we will see a quick warm up into the mid to upper 80s with lower humidity. This cool & dry airmass that we've been experiencing the last few days, will begin to moderate with an increase in the moisture by late in the week. This will provide us with some isolated rain areas into the weekend.

A Cool Start to the Week...

A clear sky tonight, along with dry air in place and lighter winds, is the perfect recipe for another cool SWFL night. Expect lows to drop into the upper 60s along the coast, with low 60s inland, and even a few upper 50s across our far nothern communties. With that being said, the kids may need to break out the longsleeve shirts for the bus stop early tomorrow morning. By the afternoon, temperatures will warm into the mid to upper 80s under plenty of sunshine. This fall like air mass will continue to moderate as we head into the middle part of the week, with increasing moisture off the Atlantic. This could bring a few isolated rain areas Friday and into the weekend.

Mother Nature Shows Off a Little Fall Flare

Lows this morning in SW FL ranged from the upper 50s to mid 60s, temperatures that haven't been felt since May! Thanks to a cold front that passed through Saturday, cooler than average temperatures will stick around through the upcoming week, and radar is forecast to remain dry. The chance for isolated afternoon showers appears Friday and Saturday, as a bit more moisture begins to break this dry, fall pattern.

Our 1st Cold Front of the Season...

A cold front that has moved through SWFL, is bringing some noticable changes with it. Highs today topped out into the mid to upper 80s with plenty of sunshine. Now that drier air has settled into the region, temperatures will quickly drop into the 60s by late tonight and into early Sunday morning, with some of the coolest readings that we have seen since last April. For Sunday, high pressure will continue to build in from the northwest, with pleasant weather continuing and low humidity. The breeze will pick up, especially as we head into the middle part of the work week with mainly dry conditions.
