| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tallahassee FL 412am EST Sat Dec 27 2025 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, Marine IRE WEATHER,Hydrology .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 353am EST Sat Dec 27 2025 - Another round of fog is possible overnight into Sunday morning. Motorists should be prepared to slow down due to sudden reductions in visibility. - After an unseasonably warm stretch of weather, sharply colder conditions will return beginning Monday night and last for much of next week. Cold weather advisories are anticipated Monday night and Tuesday night. .SHORT TERM AND Long Term (Today through Friday) Issued at 353am EST Sat Dec 27 2025 High pressure remains anchored in place through tomorrow, keeping temps above average. This will lead to continued widespread fog the next couple of mornings, at times dense. Monday into Tuesday a strong cold front looks to move across the region, blasting cold continental Polar (cP) air from Canada across the southeast. The low pressure center for this cold front will be well off to the north, leading to very minimal forcing for ascent as the front moves through. This will equate to minimal rainfall across the region, with cold dry air in its wake through the rest of the forecast period. Expect daytime highs to remain above average through Monday, with temps generally in the mid to upper 70s. Overnight lows also remain above average, generally in the mid to upper 50s. Post-frontal, on Tuesday, daytime highs look to struggle to reach the mid 50s, with widespread upper 40s to low 50s. A slow warm up into the upper 50s and low 60s follows thru Friday. Likewise, overnight lows look to plunge into the 30s on Tuesday and into the 20s Wednesday, before rebounding into the low to mid 30s Friday. Wind chills look to be coldest Wednesday morning, with widespread feel-like temps in the low 20s and possibly upper teens. Cold weather advisories are anticipated Monday night and Tuesday night. Marine Issued at 353am EST Sat Dec 27 2025 Light winds and low seas will continue through the weekend. Southwesterly winds will increase quickly and shift to being out of the northwest after a cold frontal passage on Monday. Rain will accompany the front and winds will likely reach small craft advisory levels behind it. These elevated winds will persist into Tuesday before dropping below cautionary levels by Wednesday. Fire Weather Issued at 353am EST Sat Dec 27 2025 High pressure will remain anchored near the northern Gulf coast or northeast Gulf waters through this weekend. Pockets of low dispersion are expected today across the region. Widespread fog is expected to continue the next couple of mornings with locally dense fog possible. The next frontal system moves in early next week with much cooler and drier air behind the passage. Although below-average temperatures will temper some fire concerns, gusty northerly winds and low RHs could bring some fire concerns into the forecast next week. Hydrology Issued at 353am EST Sat Dec 27 2025 Less than half an inch of rainfall is expected over the next week, there are currently no flooding concerns. Drought conditions will therefore persist across much of the Tri-State area. For more information on local impacts from drought, please visit www.weather.gov/tae/LocalDrought.
