Rip Current Statement | Florida Weather Noon
Good afternoon! I'm Aaron Jolly. Welcome to the Florida Weather Podcast for Tuesday, February 24th.
Folks, if you stepped outside this morning and thought someone swapped Florida for North Carolina.. You weren't dreaming. We dropped to 38 degrees overnight. Thirty one. That's fifteen degrees below normal for late February. Right now you're sitting at 46 degrees under skies so clear they look photoshopped.
Let me walk you through the state. Up in North Florida, you'll top out around 58 degrees by 4 PM. Winds shift from northwest to west around 1 PM. Then temperatures slide back to 38 degrees by 4 AM. That's jacket weather all day long.
Slide into Central Florida and you're seeing 61 degrees this afternoon. Lows dip to 39 degrees around 5 AM, then climb to 62 degrees by 11 AM Wednesday. Here's the kicker.. Patchy frost develops after 2 AM. Yes. Frost. In Florida.
Over in Tampa Bay, similar story. Highs near 61 degrees today, lows around 42 degrees by 4 AM, warming to 62 degrees by 11 AM tomorrow.
Down in South Florida, you've got it easiest. Highs reach 65 degrees with winds shifting north to northeast around 3 PM. Overnight lows only drop to 57 degrees. That's practically tropical compared to the rest of us.
Now the important stuff. A Frost Advisory kicks in from 2 AM to 8 AM Wednesday for inland areas. Cover those sensitive plants tonight. Critically low humidity means elevated fire danger statewide. And a Rip Current Statement holds for Palm Beach County through Wednesday evening. Stay out of that surf.
The week ahead tells a much warmer story. Highs jump into the 70s Wednesday, then push near 80 degrees Thursday. Friday into Saturday, a slow moving cold front brings scattered showers and thunderstorms. After months of drought, we could see a half inch to an inch of rain. That's music to every lawn in the state.
Sunrise hit at 6:57 AM. Sunset comes at 6:23 PM. We're gaining almost two minutes of daylight every day now.
If your plants survive tonight, they've earned a medal. Take care of them.
That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
