Issued at 359am EDT Wednesday Mar 29 2023

A weak cold front sinks southward across the peninsula today preceded by areas of fog this morning mainly south of I-4 and afternoon showers and a few thunderstorms developing south of I-4 with best chances over SWFL and the southern interior. High pressure builds in its wake with drier air filtering into the peninsula beginning later today dropping dewpoints into the 50s and 60s for less humid conditions over the next couple days before briefly rebounding into the weekend ahead of another weak front approaching the state during the weekend bringing a slight chance of showers over our northernmost counties followed by another brief supply of drier air before moderating over the first half of next week. Expect highs mainly in the 80s today and Thursday before warming into the mid 80s/lower 90s through the weekend into next week, with some mid 90s possible by mid week away from the coast.

A weak cold front pushes across the waters today with winds veering northwest and north, followed by high pressure building over the waters Thursday and Friday with winds becoming east to southeast and marginal cautionary conditions possible across portions of the waters, especially during the evening hours. Next cold front will approach the northern waters over the weekend with winds veering south to southwest over the eastern Gulf of Mexico.

Fire Weather
Issued at 359am EDT Wednesday Mar 29 2023

A weak front pushing south across the area today will bring showers and a few storms mainly for SWFL and southern interior locations, while drier air begins to filter into the peninsula from the north as high pressure builds in its wake. Minimum RHs hovering near critical thresholds will be likely for a few hours over the next few afternoons and, while winds are forecast to remain low enough to preclude any fire weather concerns, conditions should be closely monitored for any changes. Morning fog potential wanes after today as drier air mass moves into the state.
