530AM~STORMWARN FORECAST-WXWALL

After a few mainly dry days, we are starting to see more tropical moisture feed into Southwest Florida. That will help to increase our rain coverage over the next few days. We'll have a stray shower wash ashore from the Gulf of Mexico this morning and the better rain chance shifts inland in the afternoon. As the moisture continues to increase our rain chances go up just a bit each of the next few days. By midweek, we'll be looking at a more "typical" Southwest Florida summertime weather pattern with scatter afternoon storms each day. High temperatures will stay in the low to mid 90s, but will feel like the lower 100s because of all the humidity.
