Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Woodville, FL

SHORT TERM
(This Evening through Friday Night)
Issued at 229 PM EDT Wed Apr 15 2026

Strong upper level ridging will prevail into the weekend. Warming temperatures are expected area wide with highs in the low 90s likely across the FL Big Bend and southern Georgia along I-75.
Afternoon highs are about 10 degrees above normal however, we are not in record territory. Light south/southwesterly winds will allow for high humidity values in the early morning hours which will contribute to fog, provided that the winds go calm during the overnight hours. Overnight lows will generally be in the mid to upper 50s. There are no rain chances in the short term.

LONG TERM
(Saturday through next Tuesday)
Issued at 229 PM EDT Wed Apr 15 2026

An upper level low, well north of the Great Lakes, will have an associated cold front that will sweep across the Southeast late this weekend. The forcing mechanisms will be far removed from us, keeping us mostly dry as the front passes. There is a less than 20% chance for precipitation with this front. The main story is behind the front, the air mass will be dry and winds have the potential to increase. Although temperatures will return to the upper 70s and low 80s, the antecedent dry conditions will continue/increase the risk for fire danger heading into the start of the work week. Overnight low temperatures behind the front will be in the low 50s.
