Higher rain and storm chances ahead

Wednesday evening forecast

Drier air moved in for Wednesday and most will stay dry for the evening hours. A shower or storm can’t be ruled out completely this evening in southern areas, with temperatures in the 70s.

A few coastal showers will be possible in the early morning, but most will be dry. Morning lows will be in the low 70s.

Moisture does quickly return to the region Thursday, resulting in higher rain and storm chances. The highest chance for activity will be along and south of the I-10 corridor. Highs on Thursday will be in the mid 80s.

Even higher storm chances are on track for Friday, especially in Florida. Scattered showers and storms will mainly reside in the PM hours, with highs in the mid 80s.

It now looks like drier air will push in just in time for the weekend. We’re down to a 30% storm chance on Saturday, and just a few widely scattered storms are expected for the Jags opener Sunday.
