What was once supposed to bring us some more much needed rain has come together as another dry push of colder temps. These cold temperatures will be in for only a brief hello and goodnight before warmth returns across our area, and it could actually remain this way through to saying Merry Christmas.
A very active weather pattern is going to linger with us well into early Monday morning, dumping several inches of rain across Central Florida with the potential for strong winds and some rotating storms. We begin the clearing trend tomorrow afternoon but we have an onslaught to battle through tonight.
A front is trying to sink southward across our area supported by a powerful jet stream and a pretty decent slug of cooler air just to the north of where the front is draped now. As we move through tonight into your Sunday, that front should start to kick on down towards the south. While doing so, we could see some heavier bouts of rain in some spots and potential stray strong storms.
The warming has brought us back into familiar Florida territory today with many of us seeing high temperatures around 80 some-odd degrees in town. As we get into the first couple of days of December, rain chances rapidly rise and fall alongside our temperatures all over again. We're tracking a few upcoming rain makers that could impact your work/school week.
Temperatures are warming across town as winds change from a northerly to easterly direction overtime. Tonight we'll still see some chilly spots across our area, but then tomorrow's afternoon high's jump right back towards the 80 degree mark. Then into December, as we close out the month, the weather pattern looks to maybe throw some periods of rain toward us.
A cold front has swooped across our state on Thursday to welcome the Thanksgiving festivities. After a little bit of rain, frigid polar air is rapidly filling in its place.
Dense fog and smoke advisories are in effect for the eastern half of our viewing area, before we continue to watch high temperatures climb higher throughout the next week ahead.
We saw some frigid and freezing temperatures in parts of Central Florida over the last few days. Will there be more cold snaps coming? Could they become more frequent? Here's what to know.
