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 RAIN FOR WEDNESDAY
As anticipated our Tuesday turned out to be great. There's was a lot of sunshine, a few clouds, and absolutely no rain. Wednesday will be the complete opposite.
Will we have a wash out? No, but at times you'll need something to keep you dry. Oh, and you probably won't need the sunglasses.
Simply put - if you want another Tuesday - Wednesday will be a disappointment to you.
We'll wake up to partly cloudy skies on Wednesday and temperatures hovering around 70 degrees. As we progress through the day we see more clouds than sun. As a result afternoon highs will stay in the mid 80s. We're actually forecasting a high of 85 degrees for Fort Myers!
Rainfall will be delayed until the late afternoon and early evening hours. So plan on a wet afternoon commute, and if you're going to be outside for sports - get ready to encounter some sprinkles.
Now why are we seeing such an abrupt and drastic change?
Well there's a hurricane in the eastern Pacific Ocean, and its name is Paul. Our winds are lining up with the storm in perfect fashion. As they flow from the west, they're grabbing a lot of Hurricane Paul's moisture and pulling it into Florida. Thus, overcast skies, periods of rainfall, and a cooler day for Wednesday.
Thursday and Friday will be the opposite. On those days we'll see a bucket of sunshine, and we'll stay mainly dry. Highs will be in the 80s.
This weekend looks to be a split decision.
Out of the two days Sunday looks to be your best bet to get outside. I'm not saying Saturday will be terrible, in fact it should be fairly nice. However, we have isolated showers in the forecast for Saturday, and not for Sunday.
There's nothing tropical happening in the Gulf or Caribbean this week. Models are hinting this may change, so we'll have to continue to monitor the area.
We have one hurricane on the map in the Atlantic. Its name is Rafael, and it's moving away from the nation. Maximum winds are at 90 MPH which keeps it as a CAT 1. It'll begin to weaken as it moves to the north and passes by Bermuda
