TODAY: A mostly cloudy Friday gives way to partial sunshine by afternoon, but don't put the umbrella away — a 50 percent chance of showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms linger through the day. High around 80°F. East winds 10–15 mph, gusting to 25 mph.

TONIGHT: Partly cloudy with showers possible and a slight chance of thunderstorms continuing. Low in the upper 60s. East winds ease to around 5 mph. Rain chance stays at 50 percent.

THIS WEEK: The weekend brings no relief from the wet pattern. Saturday carries a 60 percent chance of showers with thunderstorms possible late morning and again late afternoon near sunset — highs in the lower 80s. Sunday mirrors Saturday almost exactly: partly cloudy to mostly cloudy, showers likely, thunderstorms possible in the afternoon, 60 percent rain chance, with southeast winds gusting to 25 mph. Plan outdoor events — concrete pours, beach outings, weekend markets — around morning windows before convection fires in the afternoon.

ON THE WATER: East winds Friday at 10–15 mph gusting to 25 mph will produce a moderate chop on coastal and inshore waters. Wave heights should run 2–4 feet near shore. Saturday and Sunday winds shift slightly southeast at 10–15 mph with similar gusts by Sunday. The better fishing window both days is early morning before afternoon storm activity builds. Offshore anglers should monitor conditions closely and be back at the dock well before midafternoon. Waterspouts are possible in convective cells this time of year — keep a sharp eye on developing storms.

ALERTS: No active NWS watches, warnings, or advisories are in effect for the Treasure Coast as of this forecast cycle.
