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.
The clouds finally broke during the early afternoon hours, and we'll continue with clouds mixing in with our sunshine for the remainder of our Wednesday. Despite the cloud cover lingering across Southwest Florida for much of the day, afternoon temperatures managed to reach the upper 70s with a breeze out of the north around 10mph.
Tonight, partly cloudy skies will remain in the forecast with mainly dry weather. Some slightly drier air will filter down the state keeping our overnight lows a tad on the cooler side as they settle into the upper 50s here in town with middle 50s across our inland and northern cool spots. By the morning hours, a few low clouds will develop, however with an elevated breeze, fog shouldn't be a big issue.
A weak cool front continues to dissipate across central Florida at this time with high pressure building in across the southeast through Thursday. This will keep a mix of sun and clouds across our skies for Thursday and Friday with highs near normal in the upper 70s to low 80s and overnight lows near 60°.
Friday and into the weekend, high pressure will begin its migration across the Carolinas and out into the western Atlantic waters. This will keep us under the influence of an easterly flow with a few more clouds drifting across the peninsula and across Southwest Florida.
