Here is your forecast for Tuesday, January 2nd, 2025
Temperatures were 15-20° cooler this morning compared to yesterday, all courtesy of a New Year's Day cold front.
With drier air in place, morning lows on Friday will be similar in the upper 40s and lower 50s across SWFL. High temperatures are expected in the low to mid-70s.
Another front will washout over the area late Friday, reinforcing the cooler-than-average temperatures. Morning lows Saturday and Sunday will run in the 40s across SWFL with high temperatures on Saturday only reaching 70°.
Monday will be the warmest (and windiest) day in the 7-day forecast, the warm surge ahead of a stronger cold front forecast to come through Monday night. We could see a passing shower on Monday ahead of the front, but chances are slim at just 20%.
Behind this front, Tuesday through Thursday's high temperatures will only reach the lower 60s. Morning lows on Wednesday are forecast to be the coolest since January 16, 2023, dropping into the 30s and low 40s.
The temperature roller coaster continues this weekend and next week, as we track another two cold fronts. The front late Monday/early Tuesday is expected to bring us the coolest air SWFL has felt in almost TWO YEARS! (Back to January 16, 2023) #flwx pic.twitter.com/rVzQcrhSfE
