WEATHER-CLIP

WEATHER-PWC

Clouds have been in abundance this afternoon with a few peaks of sunshine here and there, however the rain has been few and far between with most of Southwest Florida staying mostly dry.

A cold front has draped itself across the central part of the state and will continue to washout through Thursday. This will keep our weather in a moist west to southwesterly flow off the Gulf of Mexico with the possibility of a few showers and storms developing throughout the evening hours. With this set up, any rain that does develop should favor the Lake Okeechobee and inland spots before winding up along the east coast this evening.

Tonight, our skies will see some partial clearing with an isolated shower or two. Otherwise overnight lows will settle into the middle 70s along the urban corridor with upper 70s along our beach locations.

With a tropical airmass in place and steering winds remaining out of the southwest, it will be a mild and muggy start to the day with the vast majority of Southwest Florida staying dry. A few showers could get going by the mid day hours before rain gets pushed deeper inland with the seabreeze by the afternoon. With a bit more sunshine for our Thursday, temperatures should climb to near normal values in the lower 90s but with extra humidity, it will feel a bit hotter than what the thermometer is actually reading.

Friday and into the weekend our weather conditions will be improving as light easterly winds take over. This will bring our dry and sunny mornings back with mainly afternoon showers and storms.
