118pm EST Fri Feb 20 2026

Issued at 104pm EST Fri Feb 20 2026 High pressure continues over the region through Saturday, with southerly winds helping to increase low-level moisture. This will lead to another night of fog and low clouds across the region, followed by a warm and humid afternoon. Sunday will be a different story as a strong upper level trough moves across the eastern U.S., pushing a cold front over the Florida peninsula. It looks like there will be a line of showers starting early Sunday morning, moving southward through the day, but rainfall amounts are still forecast to be less than a quarter of an inch overall. What we will get, however, is another cool-down to start the week, with highs in the upper 50s to lower 60s Monday and Tuesday. Lows will be in the 30s and 40s Monday morning, but temperatures for now look to remain above freezing. Tuesday morning will be the coldest of the week, with lows in the upper 20s to lower 30s across the Nature Coast, then we warm up slightly Wednesday morning, though temperatures will still be near freezing for some of the same locations. High pressure then shifts eastward for the mid to latter part of the week, allowing temperatures to moderate once again.

Marine
Issued at 104pm EST Fri Feb 20 2026 High pressure centered east of Florida will hold today and Saturday, with southerly flow increasing the chances of sea fog developing at any time through early Sunday. Chances of showers and thunderstorms will increase Saturday night and Sunday along and ahead of the next cold front, then winds will increase to Small Craft Advisory and near Gale Force for Sunday through Tuesday morning.

Fire Weather
Issued at 104pm EST Fri Feb 20 2026 High pressure will hold over the region, favoring warm and stable conditions through Saturday before a cold front moves through the region on Sunday, bringing a chance for showers. No Red Flag conditions are expected this weekend, but then much drier air returns for early next week behind the front.
