Breezy weekend, keeping an eye on Ida
P.M. UPDATE: The weekend weather looks pretty good for southwest Florida! I expect variable clouds both days with warm 80's in the afternoon and cooler 60's at night.The humidity will be manageable both days this weekend. In other words, it won't be bone-dry but it won't be miserably steamy either. Rain chances are very low both Saturday and Sunday but I wouldn't be too shocked if a very brief, isolated shower rode across the state on the easterly wind. Speaking of wind, there will be a pretty noticeable northeast/east wind this weekend. Expect wind speeds of 10 - 20 mph. Boaters; use a little common sense regarding the wind. Conditions off shore will be rough but staying on the inland waterways and close to the beaches will likely be OK. Except choppy conditions even on inland waterways. 'Ida' has moved back over warm water in the Western Caribbean and could regain some strength this weekend. The storm continues to move to the north and this motion should put Ida into the Gulf of Mexico next week. This means that you'll need to be very aware of the forecast starting Monday. Enjoy your weekend but don't risk being surprised at the weather forecast next week. Make sure to check back often and see what's going on with Ida! By Robert Van Winkle
