Warm Surge Hits Florida and the Gulf Coast Ahead of a Weak Weekend Front

Forecasters expect brief showers with a short-lived cooldown before temperatures climb again next week.

Overview

  • Daytime highs reach the mid-70s Friday and Saturday across Central and South Florida and Southeast Louisiana, with increasing southwest winds and spotty showers.
  • The National Weather Service projects the front to pass Saturday night into Sunday, bringing scattered rain chances around 20–40% and quick-moving showers.
  • Temperatures slip Sunday to the mid-60s in some inland or northern areas, while much of the peninsula holds near the 70s with overnight lows largely in the 50s.
  • Marine conditions deteriorate with small craft advisories in effect and choppy seas of roughly 3 to 6 feet or higher, so boating is discouraged.
  • A fast rebound follows as highs trend back to the upper 70s to near 80 by mid to late next week, with mostly dry conditions expected.
