Strong cold front coming

Reporter: Dylan Federico
Published: Updated:

A strong cold front is on its way to Florida and will reach us on Monday. Ahead of it, clouds will be on the increase during the day as low pressure develops over the Gulf of Mexico, though we should stay dry during the daytime hours.

Rain will quickly overspread the Florida Peninsula tonight, as the Gulf low crosses over the region. A few rumbles of thunder can’t be ruled out. Overall, it should be a good soaking rain, with half an inch to an inch of rain expected.

The rain will end from west to east on Monday morning as the cold front pushes across the area, though cloudy skies and breezy conditions will continue through the rest of the day.

Much colder and drier air will usher in behind it, with the lows once again falling into the 40s Tuesday through Thursday mornings! During the day, expect cool sunshine with highs in the 60s and 70s!

By late week, we thaw out before another front approaches next weekend!
