620am EST Fri Dec 12 2025

Issued at 219am EST Fri Dec 12 2025

The cold front that pushed through yesterday morning is now south of Florida. Thanks to the colder air behind it most of us are waking up around 10 degrees colder then yesterday morning. Even though we are waking up cooler temperatures will rise quickly and will actually end up being a few degrees warmer for highs.

The front that is south of the state will start to lift north again over the weekend settling around South Florida. This will result in a quick warming trend with highs back near 80 degrees both Saturday and Sunday. Models are also showing some isolated showers in Southwest Florida Saturday night through Sunday morning.

Another cold front will quickly sweep through the area Sunday night. This will usher in some cooler air to start our next work week. This will keep highs in the 60's on Monday with lows in the 40's for most of us Tuesday and Wednesday morning. However, temperatures will rebound back into the 80's next Thursday.

Winds will shift northeast for Monday and Tuesday and slowly start to come down. Wind speeds should be back down to 10 to 15 knots by Tuesday afternoon.

However winds will stay well below criteria for a Red Flag Warning. The front will lift back north across South Florida during the weekend. This will keep min RH's in the 50's both Saturday and Sunday. Another cold front will sweep through the area on Monday which will bring some cooler temperatures however RH should still remain above critical levels for the early part of next work week.
