Here is your evening forecast for Thursday, July 25th, 2024.

Scattered storms are expected to fully clear out by midnight.

For your Friday, we'll start off in the mid to upper 70s with lots of sunshine. Winds will be out of the southeast around 5-10 mph. That will maintain our afternoon stormy pattern.

After 2pm, isolated showers and storms will begin firing up with the best chance for storms after 5pm. Based upon the latest data, it does look like more storms will linger beyond sunset near the coast and along and west of I-75, impacting plans even as late as 11 pm from Naples to Fort Myers up to Punta Gorda.

As you make outdoor plans this weekend, the earlier each day the better. Rain chances Saturday and Sunday afternoons will be around 40-60%. Heavy rain and lightning will remain our primary threats.

All is quiet in the tropics. No development is expected over the next 7 days.
