Time to break out the winter gear! The coldest night in several years is on the way.
Temperatures tonight will fall into the 30s with inland communities falling below the freezing mark of 32°, prompting Freeze Warnings for Glades, Hendry, DeSoto and inland Charlotte counties tomorrow morning until 9AM. Sensitive agriculture and plants should be protected.
A Cold Weather Advisory is in place for the rest of Southwest Florida (except coastal Collier county) as wind chill values will drop in the upper 20s to low 30s tomorrow morning.
Though wind chills will drop into the 20s and low 30s for most communities, temperatures themselves are expected to stay a few degrees above record levels.
Tomorrow will be mostly sunny with highs only climbing in the low 60s. Though winds today have gusted up to 35 mph, winds tomorrow will be much lighter initially out of the northeast becoming easterly in the afternoon between 5-10 mph.
We warm up on Saturday reaching 71°, but another cold front arrives Sunday knocking our highs back in the mid to upper 60s Sunday through Tuesday.
