Chance for scattered thunderstorms Thursday afternoon & evening

High temperatures will climb into the 90s under increasing cloud cover. These temperatures are near seasonal for this time of year, as we typically see low to mid 90s through the month of July.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms will form after lunchtime. These will bring rain to the majority of Southwest Florida. Best timing for rain chances will be from 2 PM – 7 PM, with improving conditions afterwards. Make sure to keep that umbrella handy if you’re out during these hours!

Southwest Florida will continue to see scattered storms each day leading into next week. As mid July rolls in, we can expect afternoon and evening storms each and every day, a typical rainy season weather patter across the area.

The Weather Authority is currently tracking no disturbances in the Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, or the Caribbean. No tropical development is expected within the next 5 days.
