| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tallahassee FL 341pm EDT Tuesday Oct 13 2026 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, Marine IRE WEATHER,Hydrology .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 324pm EDT Tuesday Oct 13 2026 - Above normal temperatures in the mid-80s to near 90 for this work week with little to no chance for rain expected. - Marine conditions will quickly deteriorate on Friday night following passage of a sharp cold front. .SHORT TERM & Long Term (This Evening through next Monday) Issued at 324pm EDT Tuesday Oct 13 2026 High pressure both at the surface and aloft will keep conditions dry but also a bit toasty through much of the week with high temperatures forecast in the mid 80s to near 90 each day through Friday. Late Friday and Friday night, a fairly strong cold front is forecast to rapidly push southeastward through the area, ushering in a drier and cooler air mass in its wake. Dry conditions persisting ahead of the front will preclude any precipitation developing except perhaps over the Gulf waters. High temperatures are forecast in the 70s across the area on Saturday with low temperatures in the low 50s to near 60 overnight Saturday night. The gradient will remain fairly tight in the wake of the front as well, leading to breezy conditions remaining over the weekend and into next week. As winds become more easterly Sunday and beyond, a slow but gradual warming and moistening trend is forecast to take hold. Marine Issued at 324pm EDT Tuesday Oct 13 2026 Gentle northeast to easterly breezes will prevail through Friday. On Friday night, a strong cold front will blast across the waters, ushering in sharp increase to strong or near-gale northerlies. Winds are expected to remain elevated well into next week. Fire Weather Issued at 324pm EDT Tuesday Oct 13 2026 Fair dispersions are expected each afternoon through Thursday before becoming high on Friday ahead of a strong cold front. Dry conditions are expected to continue with minRH percentage values in the mid-30s to low 40s. Light northeast transport winds of 5-10 mph can be expected through Wednesday, becoming more southeasterly Thursday. Winds begin to pick up ahead of the front on Friday before becoming very windy in the wake of the front Friday night into the weekend. Temperatures will be in the upper 80s to around 90 through Friday. No rainfall is expected. Hydrology Issued at 324pm EDT Tuesday Oct 13 2026 Heavy rainfall over the last week or so has caused many rivers and streams to rise into or near action stage. The lower Choctawhatchee River will still continue to rise as routed flow from upstream continues to work its way down to the coast. The Choctawhatchee River at Bruce may eventually go into minor flood, but confidence is a bit on the lower side for now. Otherwise, no additional flooding is expected. No rainfall is expected for the upcoming week. NOAA Tallahassee FL Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories FL...None. GA...None. AL...None. GM...None. |
