Enjoy the quieter weather while it lasts because the atmosphere is expected to become much more active heading into the holiday weekend.
Through Thursday, we’ll keep a mix of sunshine, heat, and only an isolated afternoon shower or thunderstorm, with rain chances staying fairly low.
By Friday, moisture begins to increase, bringing a better chance for scattered afternoon storms, and that trend continues through the Fourth of July weekend.
Saturday and Sunday look like classic Florida summer days, with highs climbing into the low to mid-90s inland and low 90s at the beaches before scattered to numerous thunderstorms develop during the afternoon and evening.
Not everyone will see rain, but if you have outdoor plans, especially for fireworks or time on the water, have a lightning safety plan and be prepared to head indoors if storms approach.
It will also be hot and humid all weekend, so stay hydrated, take breaks in the shade, and remember there’s at least a moderate risk of rip currents along our beaches.
