DISCUSSION

Issued at 154 PM EDT Fri Jun 26 2026

Forecast remains stuck on repeat today! Another warm one out with heat indices in the triple digits in many areas. Showers and storms have begun to fire up and will likely favor inland and SWFL areas once again. Areas directly on the coast may miss out on showers once again today. However, a change in the pattern is coming as the high pressure center over the area pushes further north, shifting winds more southeast. This shift, will still favor storm development inland, however, storms will shift towards the west coast in the afternoon and evenings. Hopefully, this will provide some relief for the areas that have missed out on the rainfall over the last week or so. Temperatures will continue to be hot through the weekend and into next week. With daily heat indices continuing to reach over 100.
