Happy Thursday, Southwest Florida! Muggy air will stick around today, prompting another hot and humid afternoon. Temperatures will peak in the upper 80s near the coast and low-mid 90s inland. But when you factor in the heat and humidity, it’ll feel like 100°+. Showers and storms will develop near the I-75 corridor around noon. After that, the Gulf sea breeze will generally shove that chance of rain inland. As it does, a strong storm or two is possible near Lake Okeechobee in Highlands, Glades, and Hendry counties. Primary impacts would be gusty wind and lightning. The Storm Prediction Center does have a sliver of Southwest Florida in a marginal risk (1/5), but the threat is very low. Once the front moves into our region, a few showers could pop up along it this evening and overnight. Friday will start out muggy with a few clouds, but humidity levels will plummet throughout the day. This sets up a gorgeous weekend ahead as dew points flirt with the upper 40s and lower 50s!
