Last Dry Day, Soggy Week Ahead
Waking up to a mild start this morning with temps in the 50s and 60s across the region. Highs will reach the mid-70s today under partly cloudy skies. Rain chances return to the forecast tomorrow, with steady, heavy rain likely mid to late week. A cold front from the west will slow to snails a pace allowing for days of rain. While Eta (which will likely strengthen to a category 1 hurricane over the next 24 hours) will feed tropical moisture into the region. Eta will travel south before veering back towards the northwest coast of Florida, making a second landfall in the state Friday. Rainfall totals could exceed 2-3″ across the higher elevations. Rain chances will become more isolated by the weekend with cooler temps following up. Highs will fall back to seasonable in the mid-60s.
