.DISCUSSION...

COMPARED TO YESTERDAY THERE IS AN INCREASED CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE FLORIDA PENINSULA. THE COMBINATION OF A SHORT WAVE IN THE
MID LEVELS COMBINED WITH AN AREA OF INCREASED MOISTURE EAST OF THE FLORIDA PENINSULA COULD
TRIGGER SOME ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS THAT COULD REACH SOUTHERN COLLIER COUNTY. WINDS WILL
BE FROM THE EAST TODAY. THE CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION WILL BE 30 PERCENT WITH AREAS
SOUTH OF COLLIER COUNTY HAVING THE HIGHEST CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION.
