.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Tuesday)
Issued at 206 AM EST Mon Nov 10 2025
Guidance remains in good agreement about the upcoming cold weather
snap starting Monday morning. Latest sfc analyses place the frontal
boundary past the peninsula with the onset of drier and colder air
advection in place. Deep zonal flow will spread across the region
with northerly cold wind bringing the first cooling down of the
season.
Latest forecast temps for this afternoon remain around the same
values from previous model runs with highs in the low-mid 70s around
the Lake region, and in the upper 70s to low 80s further south. The
northerly winds are expected to reach the 10-15 mph range with
higher gusts by the early afternoon hours on Monday, intensifying
the cold air advection during the evening and overnight hours.
Model guidance remain in consensus in having the coldest period of
the cold weather on Tuesday morning, with lows dropping into the
upper 30s to low 40s around the Lake region, and mid-upper 40s
elsewhere. Locations right along the coast may remain close to 50.
In terms of wind chill values, guidance have been going a few
degrees cooler since yesterday`s runs and now NBM is showing 30-32
degrees around the Lake region, with mid 30s to around 40 elsewhere.
A Cold Weather Advisory has been issued for Glades, Hendry, and
northern portions of Palm Beach and Collier counties from 4am to 9am
Tuesday morning for wind chill values of 35 degrees or less. Wind
chill values like those can lead to hypothermia with prolonged
exposure. Use caution while traveling outside. Wear appropriate
clothing, a hat, and gloves. Keep pets indoors as much as possible.
Make frequent checks on older family, friends, and neighbors. Ensure
portable heaters are used correctly. Do not use generators or grills
inside.
For the Tuesday afternoon highs, models also remain consistent with
keeping low-mid 60s around the Lake region/interior areas, and upper
60s elsewhere. Winds will likely peak in intensity, around 15 mph,
during the late morning hours Tuesday then beginning to subside in
the afternoon hours.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 206 AM EST Mon Nov 10 2025
Not much changes for the long term forecast philosophy with the air
mass across the state gradually moderating from Wednesday and
through the end of the work week as the west Atlantic ridge
returns. The last portion of the cold spell will happen Wednesday
morning with lows in the 40s inland, and high 50s to around 60
near the coasts.
Decreasing winds veer to a more easterly flow while warming up the
air mass. Afternoon highs climb back into the upper 70s to low 80s
by Friday and through the upcoming weekend.
POPs remain basically in single digits every day of the forecast
period with benign weather prevailing.
