After a chilly start to the work week, temperatures have been on the climb over the last couple of days. We'll continue to keep a warmer than normal pattern through the end of the week before a slight cool down arrives just in time for the weekend.
After a mild start this morning, plan on another warm and partly sunny day across the area with mainly dry conditions. A southeasterly breeze will continue to keep our afternoons a bit warmer with highs in the lower 80s, while the coastal areas remain cooler due to a nice gulf breeze with temperatures cooling into the upper 70s.
Tonight, temperatures won't be quite as cool as they settle into the middle 60s with increasing clouds.
A storm system moving across the northern gulf states, will eventually send a weak cool front our way. This front will approach the area on Friday morning with an increase in cloud cover and the threat for just a few isolated showers. Once the front clears the peninsula during the day, skies will clear and this will set the stage for a pleasant weekend across Southwest Florida.
A cooler and drier airmass will make its way down the state, cooling our overnight lows into the middle and upper 50s by Sunday morning. It won't have much of an impact on our afternoon temperatures as they will continue to warm into the lower 80s with plenty of sunshine with lower humidity values.

REAL OR FAKE?
IT'S A QUESTION ON THE MINDS OF PARENTS AND POLICE IN INDIANA TONIGHT.
HERE'S WHAT WE MEAN.
THESE TOY GUNS LOOK STRIKINGLY SIMILAR TO REAL GUNS.
CAN YOU TELL THE DIFFERENCE?
WELL, POLICE CAN'T.

OFFICERS THOUGHT THE GUN WAS REAL AND ORDERED THE TEENAGER TO PUT THE GUN DOWN.
Return to index of stories...
"would you know that this was not real or not if you saw someone carrying it?"
"no i wouldn't. i wouldn't, um it looks real so no i wouldn't."
"someone might shoot at them thinking that is a real weapon in my opinion."
TURNS OUT IT WAS A PELLET GUN DESIGNED TO LOOK LIKE A HIGH-POWERED RIFLE.
THE GUN IS PERFECTLY LEGAL.
BUT BECAUSE IT'S SO HARD TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE --
IT MIGHT MEET THE SAME FATE AS OTHER TOY GUNS.
