Thursday hot and humid with highs in the mid 90s and a heat index 105-109.

A few afternoon showers and storms are possible, mainly inland.

Friday through the weekend rain chances will increase ahead of a tropical disturbance that may move through early next week. Potential impacts include heavy tropical downpours and some gusty winds.

In the tropics the disturbance off the lesser Antilles is pretty anemic right now as it's battling some dry air, but will move into a more favorable environment by the end of the week and weekend. NHC giving it a 60% chance to develop once it gets closer to the Bahamas.
A tropical wave in the Atlantic Ocean has a medium chance for development and could become a depression late-week/weekend as it moves westward. This could potentially bring heavier and more widespread rainfall to parts of Florida later in the weekend.
