Here is your forecast for Wednesday, January 1st, 2025.
HAPPY NEW YEAR! After a foggy start to the new year, a cold front moved through, ushering in cooler and drier air. This means that fog concerns are done for the foreseeable future, but cooler temperatures are moving in.
WHY WON'T WE HAVE FOG TONIGHT BUT WILL FEEL COOLER? Drier air! Dew points are much lower following a little cold front. This means a much cooler start in the lower 50s and NO FOG! #flwx pic.twitter.com/ziWbeaeXhw

Morning lows will start off in the upper 40s and low 50s Thursday morning. Instead of highs around 80°, afternoon temperatures will run in the low and mid-70s. Mostly sunny to partly cloudy conditions are forecast.
The coolest air behind this particular front arrives this weekend with 40s for lows Saturday and Sunday. Saturday's high temperatures will stay in the 60s. Despite the chill, the weekend stays dry and sunny. Sunday's highs will be a touch warmer in the lower 70s.
We'll feel warmer, muggier air return Monday. This is the warm surge ahead of a stronger cold front on Tuesday. Behind this front, the coolest air of the winter season (so far) moves in, leading to lows in the upper 30s and lower 40s on Wednesday morning.
COLDEST AIR IN NEARLY TWO YEARS?! Behind next Tuesday's cold front, temperatures are expected to drop into the lower 40s in Fort Myers (upper 30s farther inland). The last time FMY hit 42° was on January 16, 2023, almost 2 years ago! #flwx pic.twitter.com/ksezwwdzYo
