Here is your forecast for Monday July 1st, 2024
We'll have a few showers and storms around this evening, tapering after sunset.
Tuesday will start off with lots of sunshine and temperatures in the mid to upper 70s. Around Noon, a few storms may begin to develop along I-75, shifting inland once the sea breeze picks up out of the southwest.
Downpours are most likely inland through the afternoon, but once the sea breeze dies down, some of those storms may drift back toward the coast in the evening.
In a pattern similar to what we experienced this weekend, easterly winds are expected on Wednesday. This means we'll start off Wednesday with lots of sunshine but after 2pm, showers and storms will be working from our inland communities toward the SWFL coast. This means our most populated communities near and west of I-75 will deal with storms later in the day heading into the evening.
Looking ahead to the 4th of July, scattered showers and storms will impact some afternoon and evening plans. Based upon the latest data, it looks like most of these storms should be out by 9:00 PM, great news for fireworks time!
