DISCUSSION
Issued at 244 AM EDT Wed Mar 25 2026
A weak stall out boundary is currently over the state bringing more moisture and cloud cover this morning. Once again we will see some isolated shower and storms over mainly the interior part of the state this afternoon and evening. The front will finally start to dissipate on Thursday however a shower or two still can't be rule out during the day.
Another cold front will start to push through the southeast on Friday. As it does so we will see a warmer airmass push over the state. This will help to bring our highs near record breaking in the upper 80's to around 90 degrees both Friday and Saturday. The front itself will push through the state in the evening hours bringing some isolated showers with it. The front will eventually settle just south of the state on Sunday. This will cause us to see some gusty easterly winds on Sunday. With the cooler air off the Atlantic slowly modify as it crosses the state we will actually see some cooler temperature in the interior with highs staying in the mid to upper 70's while areas close to the West Coast will see highs in the low 80's. Some isolated showers will also be possible mainly in Southwest Florida.
The front will remain just south of us on Monday however as it weakens the strong easterly winds will come down allowing for temperatures to rise back into the low to mid 80's for everyone.
Once again some isolated showers will be possible in the southern half of the CWA The front will finally dissipate next Tuesday ending the shower chances as temperatures warm up another couple of degrees.
