The breezy conditions will stay with us and turn windier as Ida approaches us this week. Ida will move into the northern Gulf of Mexico Monday and Tuesday where she will meet with a cold front diving south, causing her to lose her tropical characteristics, but could still bring strong to severe thunderstorms into our area. What's for sure is this does mean windy conditions, a good chance of rain, followed by cooler weather, and do keep on eye on the forecast for updates to the severity of weather the combined system will bring.
Today: Staying windy and partly cloudy with very isolated quick rain showers. Highs in the lower 80s. East winds at 15-25 mph.
Tonight: Partly cloudy and staying breezy, speeds of 10-20 mph. Early morning temperatures will be in the upper 60s and low 70s.
Monday: Windy conditions, 15-30mph, causing rough seas and dangerous beach conditions. Otherwise, partly cloudy with an isolated shower or thunderstorm. Highs will return to the lower 80s.
