FIRST ALERT FORECAST-CLIP

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-WXWALL

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

We'll be leaving the rain chances behind for a few days now that some dry, stable air is starting to settle over Southwest Florida.

With the exception of just one or two stray showers, today will be mainly dry, sunny, and hot. In fact, as our rain chances dip for the rest of the week, our temperatures will be on the rise.

Today's afternoon highs will be in the low to mid 90s, and we'll tack on a couple more degrees Thursday and Friday as most of us warm to the middle 90s. Even though our upper atmosphere will be drying out, we'll still notice high humidity close to the surface, making those afternoons in the mid 90s feel like we're between 100-105 degrees.

With temperatures this high it's always possible for a rogue storm to develop during the heat of the day, but the chance of any one place getting hit by a storm will be close to 10% from now through the upcoming weekend.

Our overnights for the rest of the week will continue to be warm, muggy, and mostly clear with temperatures only cooling to the mid to upper 70s on most nights.

For the boaters and beach goers, our winds will be out of the west southwest for most of the day ranging from 5-10 mph. Seas and open waters will be at 2 feet or less while the inland waters stay fairly smooth. The water temperature at Fort Myers Beach is currently at 87 degrees.

After the weekend, enough moisture will build back into Southwest Florida to produce at least some isolated afternoon thunderstorm, so rain chances should start to bump up a little by Monday.

DAVID KIRBY: Ken Peters is incredibly lucky to be alive. He's kicking his

IT MAY BE THE BIG APPLE'S LAST CHANCE TO STOP A BAN ON THE SALE OF LARGE SUGARY DRINKS.

NY SODA BAN-PKG

BIG DRINKS VERSUS BIG BROTHER? NEW YORKERS SOUND OFF ABOUT MAYOR MIKE BLOOMBERG'S PLAN TO LIMIT THE SIZE OF SUGARY DRINKS IN RESTAURANTS, THEATERS AND DELIS TO NO LARGER THAN 16 OUNCES. SUPERMARKETS AND SOME CHAINS, SUCH AS 7-ELEVEN WOULDN'T BE AFFECTED BY THE BAN. CITIZENS TOOK THEIR VOICES TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.

But what will the government be telling me next? What time to go to bed? How big my steak should be? How many potato chips I can have? I mean it's all in the name of health, and clearly the government knows what's best.

I'm here to speak in support of this policy because we believe that as we go to funeral homes and hospitals and visit people who have suffered from obesity and diabetes, that this is a major issue in our communities and it needs to be redressed.

CRITICS PORTRAY BLOOMBERG AS A NANNY, TELLING HIM THEY WANT FREEDOM OF CHOICE. THE BEVERAGE INDUSTRY HAS BEEN BEHIND A MOVEMENT TO GALVANIZE OPPONENTS, TAKING TO THE SKIES AND THE STREETS.

Don't dictate to us. Talk with us, not at us.

Yeah.Cheers.

BUT THE MAYOR WHO BANNED SMOKING IN PUBLIC PLACES, CUT OUT TRANS FATS AND HAD RESTAURANTS POST CALORIES, ISN'T BACKING DOWN FROM HIS EFFORT TO FIGHT OBESITY.

Compared to smoking, this is an easy battle to win and nobody is going to stop this, is my impression.

THE MAYOR TOUTS SUPPORT FROM HEALTH EXPERTS AND FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON. AND THE CITY REMINDS NEW YORKERS HOW MUCH SUGAR THEY'RE CONSUMING. THE BATTLE IS IN THE MAYOR'S FAVOR SINCE HE APPOINTED THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH BOARD MEMBERS WHO WILL VOTE ON THE MEASURE. AND THAT HAS MADE THE BEVERAGE INDUSTRY MORE AGGRESSIVE IN ITS FIGHT, EVEN REACHING OUT TO CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS TO TURN UP PRESSURE.

We don't have high hopes of winning, meaning this will not go forward. We hope it won't.

ELECTED OFFICIALS SAY THEY SHOULD HAVE A VOTE, BUT THAT'S NOT THE WAY THE CITY'S HEALTH COMMISSIONER SEES IT.

The purpose of the board of health is to address health crises, to establish rules within the bounds of health that really shouldn't be put up to elected officials because they can be subject to too much pressure from industry.

THIS IS A TRULY AMAZING STORY.A PLANE CARRYING A MARRIAGE PROPOSAL BANNER CRASHES.

BANNER PLANE CRASH-PKG

When Mark Simmons FLieS his plane, YOU MIGHT SAY love is in the air.

He's assisted dozens of future fiances pop the question by towing a "will

you marry me?" banner across the sky. But monday afternoon, before HIS

LATEST / engagement could get off the ground, simmons' plane came in for a
