Tomorrow will be similar with highs in the mid-90s. Punta Gorda's forecast is 96° and that would tie the standing record.
Expect lots of sunshine to kick off your Saturday. After 3pm, isolated storms will begin to bubble up.
Overall, we are expecting less cloud cover and fewer storms, which will bring us hotter temperatures in the mid-90s. Factor in the humidity and it will feel more like 101-107°.
Sunday, afternoon storms are expected to be more numerous with rain chances increasing to 40-60%.
Tracking Erin
We are closely monitoring Hurricane Erin in the Atlantic. Impacts to SWFL will be limited to a wind shift to the northeast. This will actually drive in relatively drier air and lower rain chances mid to late next week.
