Another cold night across SWFL, but a warmer Monday around the corner!

Chilly again tonight as a mostly clear sky and a calming wind will allow temperatures to drop into the upper 40s along the coast to upper 30s to low 40s inland. A few high clouds will continue to stream across the sky creating at times a halo effect around the full moon...a neat sight to behold!

Temperatures will rebound into tomorrow afternoon as the surface wind shifts out of the southeast and high pressure sets up over the peninsula allowing highs to reach up to near 70 degrees along the coast to mid 70s inland. With the center of high pressure in close proximity, winds will be lighter through the day and sunshine plentiful accompanied by a few high clouds. Those high clouds though will be a harbinger of rain in the forecast...Monday night expect increasing cloud cover and a chance of isolated rain.

And unpleasant weather day is in the forecast for Tuesday as a closed area of low pressure moves east across the state. Rain likely primarily through the afternoon period...will have you utilizing the ol' umbrella though windy conditions may have your umbrella turned inside out with wind speeds at 20-25 mph with higher gusts! The bulk of the precipitation will end Tuesday evening though a few showers may linger into the first part of Tuesday night.

Have a great week!
Lauren
