Sweating in not-so-sweater weather 🥵

News6 Pinpoint Weather Team 2024

First Fall Weekend 🥵🎃

Hey, Pinpoint Weather Insiders, it’s Chief Meteorologist Candace Campos here. I wish I could say that the first fall weekend will feel like fall... but that would be “wish-casting” instead of “forecasting”.

But to be honest, after the tropical wallop this week from Hurricane Helene, a normal end-of-September weekend doesn’t sound too bad.

Speaking of Fall, many fall festivals kick off this weekend. To see a round-up of those family fun festivals, tap here for a county breakdown.


🌀Historic Helene 🌀

As Helene moves through Kentucky and Tennessee, we can all breathe easier and be thankful it didn’t significantly affect Central Florida.

Hey, y’all Meteorologist Michelle Morgan here.

Hurricane Helene was a massive storm and unfortunately brought devastating conditions to the Big Bend area on Thursday.

It was the third hurricane to hit this region in just 13 months, following Hurricane Idalia in August 2023 and Hurricane Debby in August 2024.

Click here to see how Helene compares in size to other Gulf storms that affected the Big Bend region.
