Fun in the Sun For One More Day

SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB) - Thursday will remain relatively dry. It will be the last day with mostly sunny skies this week as moisture returns on Friday, helping to drive up the rain chances.

In the tropics, a disturbance will likely turn into a tropical depression in a few days. Meanwhile Hurricane Lee is moving north and is expected to land as a tropical storm near Nova Scotia, east of Halifax, Canada, on Saturday evening.
