DISCUSSION
Issued at 337 AM EDT Tue Jul 16 2024
The pattern remains fairly stagnant through the forecast period with the sub-tropical ridge axis extending across the Florida Peninsula through the rest of the week, setting up light flow generally out of the southeast. Under this pattern, scattered showers and a few storms will be possible over the coastal waters during the early morning hours, then storms will start to develop along the west coast sea breeze during the early afternoon, generally along and west of Interstate 75. Thunderstorms will continue to build inland through the rest of the afternoon, but the west coast sea breeze will remained pinned fairly close to the coast. Convection then gradually dissipates after sunset and the pattern repeats. The biggest variation in this pattern looks to happen Wednesday, when slightly drier air aloft pushes into central and southwest Florida, keeping rain coverage limited to the isolated to scattered range over much of the area, mainly south of Interstate 4.
Apart from the rain chances, temperatures will continue to run a couple of degrees above normal through the rest of the week and the upcoming weekend.
