Higher storm coverage Tuesday with seasonal highs
After record heat Monday, highs will return to the seasonal low 90s through the rest of the week.
FORT MYERS, Fla. —
After tying record heat Monday, highs will return to the seasonal low 90s Tuesday. We’ll see a slight uptick in afternoon storm coverage but many communities will stay dry. The biggest threats will be heavy rain and lightning.
While many across the Gulf Coast felt tremors from the magnitude 6.1 earthquake reported Monday afternoon off the west coast of Cuba, it’s unlikely to feel aftershocks today.
Your Gulf Coast Weather Most Accurate Forecast has even higher storm chances on tap for Wednesday as more moisture works into the Gulf Coast. An east wind will drive many storms toward the coast for the afternoon bringing heavy rain, lightning and gusty winds.
The tropics remain quiet with no development expected over the next week.
