Here is your forecast for Friday, May 16th, 2025.
The heat is on across SWFL. Today's heat index reached 96° in Fort Myers and Punta Gorda. The weekend will feel even hotter!
Overnight, mostly clear skies are expected with lows falling back in the upper 60s inland and low to mid 70s along the coast.
We stay hot over the weekend with highs in the low to mid-90s. Factor in the humidity, and it will feel more like the mid to upper 90s along the coast and 100°+ inland. Mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies are expected both weekend days.
No chance for rain this weekend but it will be exceptionally hot and feeling more like June. #flwx pic.twitter.com/7urAj8Iqqs

There is no chance of rain in the 7-Day forecast until next Thursday when we could see a few thunderstorms as a weak cold front approaches. Aside from that opportunity, rainy season is on hold...
