Your Weather Planner
Showers and storms will continue to diminish after sunset, leading to a partly cloudy sky overnight.
Low temperatures drop into the mid-70s early Thursday with plenty of humidity.
Tomorrow starts with another gorgeous sunrise, allowing temperatures to climb quickly into the lower 90s before rain develops.
Rain gets an earlier start tomorrow, with a few showers forming on the west side of the state before noon.
The combination of heat and humidity will send “feels like” temperatures to 100-103° for several hours tomorrow afternoon.
If you’re looking to beat the heat with a trip to the beach, a low-to-moderate risk of rip currents will continue the rest of the week and into the weekend.
TROPICS: There are two areas being monitored in the tropics. One in the middle of the Caribbean Sea is moving quickly to the west and has a 20% chance of developing later this week as it moves closer to the Gulf of Mexico. The second area is a tropical wave a few hundred miles off the coast of Africa. It has a 30% of developing as it moves west through the Atlantic Ocean. We’ll keep you posted.
