Winds will start to come down Thursday as the pressure gradient relaxes. It will still be breezy with southwest winds around 15 mph and gusting to 20.
Above average temps will continue with highs in the low to mid 90s and a heat index in the triple digits.
We'll still be dealing with some tropical moisture from the tail end of Idalia into Friday, which will keep rain chances elevated.
Daily seabreeze interactions will be able to tap into this deep moisture.
Saturday looks to be a bit drier with a nice forecast shaping up for Sunday and Labor Day.
In the tropics besides Idalia, there is Hurricane Franklin, Depression 11 and two disturbances.

A broad area of low pressure associated with a tropical wave near the Cabo Verde Islands, with a tropical depression likely this week. Formation chance through seven days: 60%.
