Here is your forecast for Wednesday, January 15th, 2024.
A shortwave of energy rolling across the state is bringing a bit of cloud cover tonight. That extra cloud cover will keep temperatures a couple of degrees warmer than this morning. We'll kick off Thursday in the low and mid-50s with mostly cloudy skies. More clouds than sun are expected into the afternoon, keeping temperatures slightly cooler around 70°. Winds are forecast out of the northeast and east between 10-15 mph.
Friday, clearing skies are forecast with high temperatures climbing into the low 70s, making for great weather for outdoor plans.
The real changes arrive this weekend. Saturday will be mostly cloudy but with warm southerly winds, temperatures will climb into the upper 70s, near 80°. An isolated shower cannot be ruled out. The best chance for rain arrives on Sunday, ahead of a stronger cold front.
MAKING PLANS THIS WEEKEND? Saturday will be the drier of the two weekend days. Rain will be moving through SWFL on Sunday, courtesy of a cold front. We'll continue to update the specific timing as the system gets closer. #flwx pic.twitter.com/LetGWVKEfR

Behind this front, Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday and Inauguration Day on Monday will be much cooler with highs only in the mid-60s.
