WEATHER-CLIP

WEATHER-PWC

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.
