Here is your forecast for Wednesday, March 19th, 2025.
We are monitoring a high fire danger for part of SWFL heading into tomorrow, as gusty winds increase ahead of our next cold front.
Tonight will stay clear with lows dropping into the 50s.
Tomorrow will be nice early with lots of sunshine with highs climbing to 80°. Winds will be out of the south and southwest between 10-15 mph in the morning increasing to 20-25 mph in the afternoon, ahead of an evening cold front.
Because of those gusty winds, ongoing drought conditions and continued low humidity, the National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning for Thursday afternoon for Glades and Hendry counties. Those counties, alongside Collier, Charlotte and Sarasota, are already under burn bans. Any fire that does start will spread quickly due to the conditions.
The front will bring a sprinkle or two to our northern communities late in the day. For most of us, it'll just be a cloudier evening as the front passes through.
In its wake, cooler, drier air will return for Friday, heading into the weekend. Highs on Friday will be in the mid-70s, increasing into the upper-70s Saturday and into the low-80s on Sunday.
Another front looks to arrive overnight Monday into Tuesday bringing us a slight chance of showers.
