A shift in our winds will bring us an entirely new weather pattern for today; a west and northwest wind of 5-15 mph will keep our skies full of sunshine and limit our chances of rain. We are starting out sunny and we may see a few fair weather clouds materialize this afternoon, but there is only a chance of some isolated rain popping up in Glades and Hendry county around the mid-afternoon hours. Daytime highs are headed for the upper 80s and lower 90s while our dew points hover middle and upper 60s. Our rain chances will remain quite low on Friday while we enjoy another day full of sunshine with an afternoon breeze of 10-20 mph. Dry weather will take hold over the weekend when our dew points drop a bit and we keep the sun & breeze going strong. While our dew points have been hanging out in the upper half of the 60s lately, over the weekend we will feel those numbers drop to the upper 50s and lower 60s for a short time. By next Tuesday the dew points will pop back up into the middle and upper 60s. Rain chances will finally return to SWFL next Wednesday, but even then they aren't very high.
