We&#8217;ll still hit or miss showers and storms during the afternoon and evenings with the help of the sea breezes, but overall, we&#8217;ll see less coverage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">That trend continues Monday into Tuesday with even lower rain chances. This is thanks to a ridge of high pressure build back in. With that, chances come down to around 20% on Monday, and that drier stretch continues through the rest of the workweek.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">We&#8217;ll still have the potential for a few showers and storms with the sea breeze collision, but coverage will be much lower.<\/p>\n<p original-article-post=\"\" origination_station=\"WOFL\" data-v-ec26887a=\"\" data-v-94395e58=\"\">What to Expect:<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">With this ridge of high pressure building, we&#8217;ll feel our temps coming back up. Our average for this time of year is 92, and we&#8217;ll likely be a few degrees above that. Highs jump from the lower 90s this weekend and early next week to the mid-90s Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">By late week, it&#8217;s looking like we&#8217;ll be able to rise into the upper 90s, but either way, the humidity will make it feel like the lower to mid-100s. We&#8217;ll likely be shy of the Heat Advisory criteria, but we&#8217;ll have the heat risk to contend with for the first few days back at school.<\/p>\n<p> Tracking the tropics <\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">There are two waves we&#8217;re watching in the tropics. A wave in the Eastern Atlantic now has a 20% chance of development over the next week. A wave coming off the coast of West Africa has a 40% chance of development over the next 7 days.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">As we progress through mid to late week, data suggest at least the potential for a tropical depression or tropical storm with a tropical wave coming off the coast of West Africa.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">This could become Tropical Storm Cristobal by later next week, but there is a lot of wind shear in the tropical Atlantic. This is thanks to the strong El Ni\u00f1o we&#8217;ve been seeing throughout the season thus far. That is making for lots of wind shear across the Basin. Shear and dry air, despite some development, should make for a weaker system overall, but it&#8217;s something we&#8217;ll be watching closely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"group-source-paragraph\" data-v-4fbf7207=\"\">The Source: This story was written based on information provided by meteorologist T.J.
