Tracking a Holiday Front
We re watching a still-distant Cold Front that has its eyes on Florida over the next couple of days The front is forecast to gradually pass across south Florida on Thanksgiving Day bringing our best chance for rain in the foreseeable future Lately we ve been in the grasp of a warming trend and it has been getting more humid as well On Tuesday temperatures peaked in the middle s for largest part spots although coastal areas were more aligned to the low s as were the Florida Keys Considering we normally peak at -degrees in late November we remain warmer than usual If you re ready for specific weather changes they re on the way just not dramatic ones The turning point comes Thursday with the aforementioned front sending more clouds and areas of rain There could be pockets of heavy downpours during the afternoon Thanksgiving Day and isolated storms accomplishable It won t feel as warm with the wetter times taking over Afternoon and evening temperatures will be in the s retreating to the s for morning lows on Black Friday Even with the passage of the Cold Front we ll say it s less of a Drop and rather a Droop in temperatures The next notable change involves increasing winds It happens as High Pressure rebuilds behind the frontal passage Gusty times will carry into the weekend arriving from the northeast then east This flow will the greater part definitely lead to rough waters and rip currents at the beach The marine hazards should last through Sunday Beyond that more tranquil times are expected If you re preparing to hang a few holiday lights that would be a better time frame for that
