Meteorologist Scott Padgett here filling in for Chief Meteorologist Trent Aric and a nice night is developing here in SFL. We will see partly cloudy skies with rain chances just at 20%. Temps will cool to the mid 80s through the evening and... eventually reach a low of 79 in the early morning hours Friday. Good beach and pool weather is in the forecast Friday with highs reaching the low 90s and rain chances remaining low at around 20%. Get in your fun in the sun before Sunday because our rain chance increases with the approach of a tropical wave.
