Highs return to the 80s under increasing cloud cover

Highs will reach the 80s this afternoon under partly cloudy skies.

Sustained winds will not be strong enough to drastically affect your boating conditions. Expect another afternoon of fantastic weather on the water.

Rain chances will be minimal over the next several days. Sunday’s rain chances will be sparse and mainly affect the southern half of our viewing area.

This lack of rain is due to a large area of dry air that has situated itself over Southwest Florida.

We won’t see high levels of humidity return to the forecast until the end of next week. In the meantime, expect our high temperatures to remain well above average.
