Get ready for another chilly morning in the 30s and 40s. Factor in the wind, and it will feel more like the mid-30s and low-40s but out of Advisory range.
It'll be another chilly start in the morning, feeling more like the 30s and 40s across SWFL, before we feel a big warm-up in the afternoon. #flwx pic.twitter.com/bpb1vDkrPE

Winds will shift in the morning, becoming southerly ahead of a storm system sweeping across the Deep South. Those warm southerly winds will drive up our temperatures into the mid-70s, keeping us mild through the evening into Saturday morning.
Saturday morning, isolated rain showers are forecast ahead of a cold front. Behind that front on Saturday afternoon, winds will shift back to the north, driving in cooler, drier air yet again.
Morning lows on Sunday will drop into the upper 40s with highs in the upper 60s. Though a few degrees below average early next week, this weekend's front will NOT pack the punch that this past week's front did.
DID YOU SEE SMOKE TODAY?
About 10 prescribed burns across SWFL sent smoke across SWFL. It's important to note that these are NOT wildfires. They are controlled and contained. One beneficial reason officials prescribe such burns is to to prevent wildfires later in dry season. For more on the prescribed burns in our area, click here: Florida Forest Service’s Burn Map
