"MILD TONIGHT WITH MAINLY DRY WEATHER BY MORNING"
Our weather has remained pretty nice throughout the afternoon hours, as winds have stayed a bit on the breezy side out of the northeast with gusts in excess of 20 mph. For the rest of the afternoon, Southwest Florida will remain under partly sunny skies with a couple of showers developing closer to the coast throughout the evening.
By sunset, whatever rain develops will have pushed out into the Gulf of Mexico as skies begin to clear across the Peninsula. Overnight, mostly clear conditions will set up as lows settle into the mid 70s with mainly dry weather.
With high pressure to our north and east, winds will remain breezy from time to time tomorrow as they take on more of an easterly component. This will allow for a dry and sunny start to our Thursday with a few hit or miss downpours late in the afternoon and early evening hours. Highs tomorrow will climb to near normal values in the lower 90s.
Not much change is in the forecast as we round out the work week, with the better chance for a showers during the afternoon. More moisture will work its way in across the area by the beginning of next week, with more clouds and a change in our steering winds. This means we could see an early start to our shower and thunderstorm pattern by Monday and Tuesday.
