Forecast: Weak front arrives just before Thanksgiving
While Southwest Florida’s weather looks great this evening, a cold front will be moving in our direction tomorrow.
This front won’t bring us a severe weather threat, but if we’re lucky, it will help fire off a few isolated showers. Rain totals look low, so keep your expectations in check. At best, we’re looking at a few hundredths of an inch between late Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday night.
What this front will do to our area is cool down temperatures and pull down the humidity. Today we’ll peak in the middle 80s. Tomorrow we’ll top out in the low 80s. And on Thanksgiving Thursday, our mid-day temperatures will be in the middle 70s.
As our Thanksgiving Day forecast looks cool and quiet, on the day after the holiday, we’ll re-introduce rain chances to the area as a storm system pulls together over the Gulf of Mexico. This system will bring us the chance of some rain starting late on Friday, with lingering rain on Saturday.
The second half of the upcoming holiday weekend looks nice. Sunday’s forecast calls for a high of 81 degrees under partly sunny sky conditions.
