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.
AFTERNOON STORMS RETURNING
All eyes are on the tropics as Tropical Storm Ernesto gains strength.
It continues to move due west at a quick 21 MPH. It has sustained winds of 50 MPH, and winds gusts have been clocked at over 60. As of now all models keep Ernesto in the Caribbean, making landfall Wednesday around Belize and the Yucatan Peninsula as a CAT 1 Hurricane.
It will not have a direct impact on southwest Florida
There's another tropical wave that we're watching just south of the Cape Verde Islands. The National Hurricane Center is giving the area a good chance of developing into our next tropical system within the next 48 hours. The environment it's about to enter is very ripe for strengthening.
Yes, the tropics are beginning to fire… Right on time!
Of course keep it locked to NBC2 for all your tropical updates this hurricane season.
When it comes to our local weather… Expect the usual to return.
Partly sunny skies will be back in the forecast this weekend with afternoon storms setting up each afternoon along the sea breeze. The more robust sea breeze will come through on Sunday which could spark some strong storms.
This type of weather continues through midweek, but next weekend draws closer we'll see more sunshine than rain.
Highs will be in the lower to mid 90s, and it will very muggy!
Your boating forecast for tomorrow calls for winds from the east at 10 knots, seas 1 to 2 feet, and inland waterways will be smooth!

THE FLORIDA PRIMARY IS IN 11 DAYS--
AND ONE OF THE RACES TO WATCH IS THE FIGHT FOR A U-S SENATE SEAT.
REPRESENTATIVE CONNIE MACK IS AMONG SEVEN REPUBLICANS VYING FOR THE PARTY NOMINATION--
AND THE SHOT TO GO HEAD-TO-HEAD IN NOVEMBER WITH DEMOCRATIC INCUMBENT SENATOR BILL NELSON.
INSTEAD OF GOING AFTER HIS REPUBLICAN CHALLENGERS--
MACK IS ALREADY FOCUSING HIS ADS ON NELSON.
NBC-2 ANCHOR LINDSAY LOGUE IS HERE TONIGHT TO TRUTH TEST ONE OF THOSE ADS--
LINDSAY--
Return to index of stories...
THIS ONE PAINTS SENATOR NELSON AS THE STATE LIBERAL--
WHO SIDES *MOST OF THE TIME WITH THE PRESIDENT. AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
IT'S MEANT TO APPEAL TO THE MORE CONSERVATIVE VOTER--
BUT HOW MUCH OF IT IS TRUE?
Return to index of stories...
"president obama is taking a break from his liberal agenda to visit florida"
THIS AD HIT THE AIR THE WEEK OF THE PRESIDENT'S JULY CAMPAIGN TOUR OF FLORIDA.
MAKING STOPS IN JACKSONVILLE, WEST PALM BEACH AND FORT MYERS
IT'S PAID FOR BY FREEDOM PAC --
"the state flower is the orange blossom, the state reptile is the alligator"
AND SUPPORTS CONGRESSMAN CONNIE MACK --
"and the state liberal is senator bill nelson"
NELSON -- A SENIOR DEMOCRATIC SENATOR AT THE POST SINCE 2001. IS TRYING TO HANG ONTO HIS SEAT.
PUBLIC POLICY POLLING RELEASED NEW NUMBERS IN AUGUST-- IF MACK CLINCHES THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION-
POLLS SHOWS NELSON AHEAD -- BY TWO POINTS.
"nelson voted for obamacare"
WE CHECKED INTO NELSON'S VOTING RECORD-- AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC AT SENATE DOT GOV-- AND FOUND THAT, YES, IN 2009 HE *DID VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT --
THIS CLAIM IS TRUE.
"and chose to side with president obama 98% of the time"
FREEDOM PAC IS REFERRING TO NELSON'S VOTING RECORD SINCE PRESIDENT OBAMA TOOK OFFICE.
THE SENATOR'S OFFICE DEBUNKED THE CLAIM -- SAYING "HE SUPPORTS THE PRESIDENT'S PROPOSALS WHEN HE AGRESS WITH THEM AND OPPOSES THEM WHEN HE DOESN'T. THE BOTTOM LINE IS: NELSON PUTS FLORIDA FIRST."
THERE ARE SEVERAL WEBSITES DEDICATED TO MEASURING HOW OFTEN A SENATOR VOTES WITH THEIR PARTY--
HERE'S WHAT WE FOUND:
A WASHINGTON POST ANALYSIS OF THE 111TH CONGRESS SHOWS NELSON VOTED WITH HIS PARTY 93% OF THE TIME.
AND FOR THE 112TH CONGRESS - IT WAS 94%.
A SIMILAR SITE THAT TRACKS CONGRESSIONAL ROLL CALL IS OPEN CONGRESS --
IT ONLY MEASURES THE 112TH CONGRESS. AND IT SHOWS NELSON VOTED WITH HIS PARTY 92% OF THE TIME.
THERE ARE A FEW PERCENTAGE POINTS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHAT *WE FOUND AND WHAT THE AD CLAIMS.
SO WE RANK THIS CLAIM: MOSTLY TRUE.
THERE *IS ONE LITTLE VISUAL ERROR IN THIS 30 SECOND AD-- AND WE THOUGHT WE SHOULD POINT IT OUT.
WHEN TALKING ABOUT THE STATE TREE.
"the state tree is the palm"
