"Morning clouds and fog, followed by lower humidity"
After a few cloudy and rainy days, our weather will begin to improve during the day. A cold front to our north that has induced a moist flow off the Gulf of Mexico will finally push through today with some drier and cooler conditions.
Low clouds and areas of dense fog will linger across Southwest Florida for much of the morning with temperatures holding in the middle to upper 60s. As we head into the afternoon hours, winds will take more of a northwesterly turn and funnel in some drier air. This will help to break up some of the clouds this afternoon, revealing a bit more in the way of sunshine. Daytime highs will also be a touch cooler as they warm into the middle to upper 70s.
Skies will become mostly clear tonight and with lower humidity, overnight lows will be quite comfy as they fall into the middle to upper 50s from north to south.
High pressure will continue to build in across the southeastern states on Friday and into the weekend. This will keep a dry and mostly sunny weather pattern in play with temperatures near normal.
Our next rain chance will come by Tuesday as a stronger cold front pushes across the peninsula with cooler air arriving by mid week.

Unlike other rampages, Roberts, they say, did not leave behind signals his
life had gone off course.
In fact, he had no history of serious trouble.
SOT Sheriff Craig Roberts, Clackamas Co. Sheriff's Office
"WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE MOTIVE OF THIS ATTACK."
Roberts' ex-girlfriend, Hannah Sansburn, told ABC News that Roberts quit his
job, sold all his belongings and said he was moving to Hawaii.
But she still has no idea what set him off.
SOT Hannah Sansburn, Suspect's ex-girlfriend
"THIS WAS THE LAST THING I WOULD HAVE EVER EXPECTED ESPECIALLY FROM HIM. HE
WAS JUST TOO SWEET."
Detectives say Roberts made a beeline from his Volkswagen Jetta parked
in the mall lot and entered Macy's carrying the rifle, which he stole from
someone he know. Roberts wore a ballistic vest to carry ammo and a hockey-
style mask.
That grizzly image.completely different than this picture released
yesterday by the woman who raised Robertsshowing him looking innocent and
happy.
A family friend read a statement.

"SHE HAS NO UNDERSTANDING OR EXPLANATION FOR HER SON'S BEHAVIOR."

After a few cloudy and rainy days, our weather will begin to improve during the day. A cold front to our north that has induced a moist flow off the Gulf of Mexico will finally push through today with some drier and cooler conditions.
Low clouds and areas of dense fog will linger across Southwest Florida for much of the morning with temperatures holding in the middle to upper 60s.

Skies will become mostly clear tonight and with lower humidity, overnight lows will be quite comfy as they fall into the middle to upper 50s from north to south.
High pressure will continue to build in across the southeastern states on Friday and into the weekend. This will keep a dry and mostly sunny weather pattern in play with temperatures near normal.

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE ABC7 WEATHER STAFF.
IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS TH
E FORECAST FOR OUR AREA."Morning clouds and fog, followed by lower humidity"
After a few cloudy and rainy days, our weather will begin to improve during the day. A cold front to our north that has induced a moist flow off the Gulf of Mexico will finally push through today with some drier and cooler conditions.
Low clouds and areas of dense fog will linger across Southwest Florida for much of the morning with temperatures holding in the middle to upper 60s. As we head into the afternoon hours, winds will take more of a northwesterly turn and funnel in some drier air. This will help to break up some of the clouds this afternoon, revealing a bit more in the way of sunshine. Daytime highs will also be a touch cooler as they warm into the middle to upper 70s.
Skies will become mostly clear tonight and with lower humidity, overnight lows will be quite comfy as they fall into the middle to upper 50s from north to south.
High pressure will continue to build in across the southeastern states on Friday and into the weekend. This will keep a dry and mostly sunny weather pattern in play with temperatures near normal.
Our next rain chance will come by Tuesday as a stronger cold front pushes across the peninsula with cooler air arriving by mid week.
