The storminess continues to be driven by the sea breeze collision, and that looks to happen across the interior today, thanks to lighter wind as a whole.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p original-article-post=\"\" origination_station=\"WOFL\" data-v-ec26887a=\"\" data-v-94395e58=\"\">What we know:<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">Some changes develop on Sunday as we tap into some drier air. This should attempt to stifle our storm chances, bringing them back down to around 20%. A few showers and storms are possible, but it&#8217;ll be the drier day of our Labor Day Weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">However, deep atmospheric moisture surges into Central Florida starting Monday ahead of a cold front, driving rain chances up to 70% early next week. Expect more widespread afternoon and evening storms each day, tapering off after sunset.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">Chances stay higher into midweek before dipping back closer to &#8220;normal&#8221; next Friday, around 40%.<\/p>\n<p>TEMPERATURES HOVERING NEAR AVERAGE<br \/>High temperatures will stick close to seasonable levels over the next 7 days, matching our typical early September norms. Highs hit 91-93\u00b0 over the holiday weekend, then dipping closer to 90 Monday and Tuesday with the higher rain coverage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">With high humidity lingering across the area, heat index values will routinely reach the triple digits during the midday hours before afternoon storms arrive.<\/p>\n<p>QUIET STRETCH IN THE TROPICS<br \/>The Atlantic basin remains notably quiet as strong wind shear and dry atmospheric conditions continue to suppress development across the basin.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-v-94395e58=\"\">The National Hurricane Center expects no tropical cyclone formation across the Atlantic, Caribbean Sea, or Gulf over the next 7 days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"group-source-paragraph\" data-v-4fbf7207=\"\">The Source: This story was written based on information provided by FOX 35 meteorologist T.J.
