Here is your forecast for Monday, November 18th, 2024
Moisture will gradually increase ahead of Wednesday's cold front. That means higher humidity and a warmer start Tuesday morning in the mid to upper 60s.
A little more sunshine is forecast, so we are expecting Tuesday afternoon temperatures to run a little warmer in the mid-80s.
Looking ahead to Wednesday, keep the rain gear close! Rain will start in the morning and wrap up in the afternoon. The cold front itself is forecast to roll through around 3pm.
The last time we have measurable rainfall across SWFL was in Hurricane Milton on October 9th. Since then, the few showers that we have experienced have been hit and miss. That means that the flooding threat will be minimal as there's room to absorb some extra rain. 0.5" to 1.25" are currently expected. While the threat for severe weather is low, there will be some embedded thunderstorms.
Behind that front, we are in store for the coolest afternoons that we've felt since March! High temperatures Thursday through the weekend will run in the low and mid-70s with lows dropping into the lower 50s with northern and inland communities falling into the upper 40s.
