A WET WEDNESDAY
First Alert Radar shows an active picture this afternoon and evening. Each cell has the potential to produce heavy downpours, gusty winds, and frequent lightning. Do be on guard if you plan to head out.
Unlike days past, our storms will continue after sundown. In fact they'll actually have the chance to continue through the wee hours of Wednesday so grab the umbrella!
As one may know, we have been harping about the Tuesday-Wednesay. It's our best chance over the next 7 days to see widespread heavy rains, and the rain fall totals could add up to be nearly two inches. That's great news because southwest Florida is below average on rain for the year.

A WET WEDNESDAY
First Alert Radar shows an active picture this afternoon and evening. Each cell has the potential to produce heavy downpours, gusty winds, and frequent lightning. Do be on guard if you plan to head out.
Unlike days past, our storms will continue after sundown. In fact they'll actually have the chance to continue through the wee hours of Wednesday so grab the umbrella!
As one may know, we have been harping about the Tuesday-Wednesay. It's our best chance over the next 7 days to see widespread heavy rains, and the rain fall totals could add up to be nearly two inches. That's great news because southwest Florida is below average on rain for the year.
So, your Wednesday will call for partly cloudy conditions with periods of stormy weather. Temperatures will be a mix of upper 80s and 90s.
Later in the week we'll see a surge of heat traverse the area which will bring out temperatures to the mid 90s. The weather pattern will also shift to more 'typical' for July with mostly sunny skies and afternoon storms with the sea breeze.
If you plan to go boating expect seas to have a light chop, and be aware of the storms.
The tropics are quiet, too, and that's good news!

THEY HAVE A HEALTH CONCERN BUT NO INSURANCE--
SO INSTEAD OF GETTING CHECKED OUT, THEY WAIT.

A PREGNANT LADY WALKS INTO A BAR.
KELSEY WILKINSON: "'I can't believe this pregnant girl is here at the bar drinking a beer. What's wrong with her?' It took a lot to not walk up to them and be like, 'i'm not pregnant! There's something wrong with me. Don't judge me!'"
KELSEY WILKINSON ISN'T CARRYING A BABY.
IT'S A 20-POUND CYST.
DR. FADI ABU SHAHIN: "this is the heart here. This is the back, this is the front."
KELSEY CALLS IT -- CYSTZILLA.
AND HOW BIG IS IT?
DR. FADI ABU SHAHIN: "three of four watermelons"
KELSEY WILKINSON: "I just keep telling myself everything is going to be okay."
KELSEY'S DOCTOR SAYS -- IT'S NOT HER FAULT.LOTS OF WOMEN MAKE THE MISTAKE OF WAITING.AND SEEING.
DR. FADI ABU SHAHIN: "they assume they're gaining weight, they try to diet and think their belly keeps getting bigger."
CHANCE SEALES: "after years of the cyst growing in her body, Kelsey says before she ever came to this cancer center, she had to overcome two things: fear and not having insurance."
KELSEY WILKINSON: "some of my really close friends and sister were finally saying, 'here's my check card, here's my bank'.just do it!"
SHE NOW FACES MORE THAN $75,000 IN HOSPITAL BILLS, OUT OF POCKET.
MILLIONS OF AMERICANS *ALSO PUT OFF CHECKUPS, FEARING THE DEBT.AND DIAGNOSIS.
DR. FADI ABU SHAHIN: "i have to make a full incision all the way up here."
KELSEY WILKINSON: "I was afraid that I had cancer or crazy disease and kind of had that mindset of 'if I don't know something's wrong, then nothing's wrong and it will go away on its own."
DR. FADI ABU SHAHIN: "the goal is to preserve one ovary, which is this one."
WHEN LOOKING FOR BIGGER PROBLEMS, DR. ABU SHAHIN LOOKS FOR A FEW SIGNS.
DR. FADI ABU SHAHIN: "there are certain things we look at.how thick the wall is, if there are solid components, how the blood flows in and around it."
OVARIAN CYSTS ARE NORMAL.SO AT FIRST, THERE'S NO NEED TO WORRY.
BUT WITH A LUMP OR SEVERE PAIN, IT'S TIME TO SEE A DOCTOR.
DR. FADI ABU SHAHIN: "persistent symptoms are usually due to something that needs to be evaluated."
KELSEY WILKINSON: "I watched that on youtube. It doesn't look fun. Hahaha"
AS FOR A POST-SURGERY GOAL.
KELSEY WILKINSON: "I want to be able to do a half marathon, which is 13 miles. I know, it's a lot. It's a goal!"
WE CHECKED IN WITH KELSEY ONE WEEK OUT.
KELSEY WILKINSON: "I feel better than I felt before. I felt fine before. Now I feel great.like fantastic"
SHE'S LOST ONE OVARY, BUT NOT HER SPIRIT!
KELSEY WILKINSON: "you should take all the screenings stuff they talk about seriously. Because apparently it is something TO take seriously."
