732am EST Fri Feb 6 2026

Issued at 732am EST Fri Feb 6 2026

Lows are occurring now, with portions of the Nature Coast seeing freezing temperatures and much of the rest of the area in the mid to upper 30s except near the coast where lower to mid 40s are in place. Highs are expected to reach into the lower to mid 60s this afternoon with WNW winds becoming gusty in the afternoon. A dry front moves through Saturday, with one more night of potentially freezing lows in the Nature Coast on Sunday morning. Then high pressure will remain over the area and allow for a bit of a warm up through next week.

Marine
Issued at 732am EST Fri Feb 6 2026

Winds have subsided, and seas are diminishing across the coastal waters this morning. There will remain a high risk of rip currents at area beaches through the day, but marine conditions will continue to improve. As the next front moves through the area early Saturday, winds and seas will again increase to SCEC and possibly SCA (Small Craft Advisory) levels, so will be monitoring for that. No other concerns.
