A Refreshing Start to the Week

Autumn-like conditions are being felt in the Coastal Empire thanks to a cold front that moved through earlier this weekend. High pressure to the northeast is providing breezy conditions along with the lower temperatures and low humidity.

It will continue to be windy along the coast due to the onshore breezes and a heavy surf advisory remains in effect Tuesday along with a small craft advisory on the coastal waters.

On land, plenty of sun will be out on Tuesday with some clouds mixing in near the coast. The old frontal boundary to the south is expected to move west across Florida as a developing area of low pressure Wednesday and Thursday. This will cause more moisture to move in off the ocean up into our area as well, resulting in more clouds and an increasing chance of showers. It is possible that some showers could be heavy Wednesday night and Thursday. Some shower chances may linger in the area Friday and Saturday, with a gradual decreasing trend. Temperatures and humidity will increase to make for a summer-like weekend.
