2025 Atlantic Season Comes To Its End: Season Wrap-Up and Looking Ahead to Winter in Central Florida
LAUNCH. BUT LET’S TALK ABOUT THE END OF HURRICANE SEASON. MARQUISE. KNOCK ON WOOD, WE DIDN’T GET ANY HURRICANES HERE IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA. ABSOLUTELY A BLESSING. NOT JUST FOR FLORIDA, BUT ALL ACROSS THE UNITED STATES. THE HURRICANE SEASON IS COMING TO AN END, AND WE HAD NO LANDFALLS HERE IN THE UNITED STATES WHATSOEVER. THE FIRST TIME THAT WE’VE SEEN THAT IN THE LAST TEN YEARS. BUT OVER THE COURSE OF THIS YEAR, WE DID SEE 13 NAMED STORMS, WHICH IS RIGHT AROUND OUR SEASONAL AVERAGE OF 14. AND OF THAT 13, WE DID SEE QUITE A FEW CATEGORY FIVES, INCLUDING MELISSA. ALSO, WE HAD AARON AND WE HAD HUMBERTO. ALSO, A MAJOR HURRICANE WAS GABRIELLE, A CATEGORY FOUR. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN THE LAST 20 YEARS THAT WE HAD SO MANY MAJOR HURRICANES. IN FACT, JUST ECLIPSING THAT WAS 22,005 WITH FOUR CATEGORY FIVE HURRICANES, THOSE BEING AARON, WILMA, RITA AND ALSO KATRINA THE HEAVY HITTER FOR THAT SEASON. BUT MELISSA WAS NO STRANGER TO STRONG WINDS. WE HAD MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS AT LANDFALL OF 185MPH, TYING THE RECORD FOR DORIAN AND ALSO THE FLORIDA KEYS HURRICANE THAT WE HAD BACK IN 1935. BUT THE GUSTS WERE EVEN STRONGER OUTSIDE OF THOSE SUSTAINED WINDS. WE HAD A REGISTERED GUST OF. 252MPH, THE STRONGEST THAT WE’VE EVER HAD ON RECORD ACROSS THE CARIBBEAN. BACK IN OCTOBER. SO IN SUMMARY, THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT WE’VE SEEN NO LANDFALLS IN THE UNITED STATES IN THE LAST TEN YEARS. IT WAS A VERY HISTORIC SEASON, AS THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME THAT WE HAD OVER THREE CATEGORY FIVE HURRICANES IN JUST ONE SEASON. BUT IN COMPARISON TO OUR SEASONAL AVERAGE, WE FELL SHORT OF THAT MARK OF 14. THAT’S DUE TO, IN PART, THE LA NINA SETUP THAT WE HAD LATE IN THE SEASON, PROTECTING US FROM LANDFALL HERE IN THE UNITED STATES. BUT AS WE TRANSITION ACROSS THE WINTER SEASON, THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO KEEP YOUR TEMPERATURES WARMER, ALL DUE TO THAT JET STREAM THAT IS GOING TO PUSH A LITTLE BIT FURTHER UP TOWARDS THE NORTH, WELCOMING THOSE WARMER TEMPERATURES AS WE STEP FORWARD INTO THE MONTH OF DECEMBER. COMING UP TODAY, THOUGH, HIGHS, WE’RE BACK IN THE UPPER 70S AND LOWER 80S. MUCH COOLER UP NORTH, OF COURSE, AS THEY’RE DEALING WITH THAT WINTER STORM MOVING ACROSS NEW ENGLAND. AS WE SPEAK RIGHT NOW, WE SEE THAT SYSTEM OF LOW PRESSURE. BUT HERE, BACK AT HOME, WE WERE RAIN FREE TO WRAP UP THE WEEKEND. WE DO HAVE A COUPLE SHOWERS JUST OFFSHORE, BUT AS WE TURN ON OUR DOPPLER RADAR, WE SEE NOTHING INLAND AS WE’RE JUST CLOUDY NOW ENTERING THE EVENING, TEMPERATURE WISE, WE’RE BACK IN THE LOWER 70S ACROSS THE BOARD, INCLUDING OCALA, NEW SMYRNA, ORLANDO, DAYTONA BEACH. WE’LL SWING OUT TOWARDS ORLANDO RIGHT NOW 73 DEGREES AS YOU WALK OUTSIDE, AND WE HAVE THOSE CALMER WINDS IN COMPARISON TO WHAT WE SAW YESTERDAY, ANYWHERE BETWEEN 5 AND 10MPH FROM FROM THE EAST. OVER THE COURSE OF YOUR EVENING, COMFORTABLE TEMPERATURES WILL BE BACK AS WE STALL IN THE MID 60S TONIGHT. SMALL CHANCE FOR A LITTLE BIT OF FOG TO START OFF YOUR DAY. CHECKING THE FOG TRACKER RIGHT NOW. LUCKILY NO DENSE FOG ADVISORIES, BUT WE WILL SEE SOME PATCHY FOG OUT ON THE ROAD EARLY ON AS CLOUDS BEGIN TO FILL INTO THE FORECAST AS WELL. HIGH TEMPERATURES SHOULD RANGE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 72 AND 82 DEGREES. AS LOW PRESSURE RISES TO THE NORTH TO START OFF YOUR WORK WEEK, AND THAT’S GOING TO INTRODUCE A ROUND OF SHOWERS ON TUESDAY AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT. MOVING IN THE COLD FRONT WON’T COOL YOU DOWN TOO MUCH. TYPICALLY, AS WE WRAP UP THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER, TEMPERATURES SHOULD PEAK RIGHT AROUND 76 DEGREES, AND THAT’S WHERE WE’LL BE TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF YOUR WORKWEEK. BEFORE THAT, THOUGH, WE COULD HAVE ANOTHER HALF INCH OF RAIN HERE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA. BUT HERE’S YOUR TEMPERATURE DROP OFF FROM THE LOWER 80S ON TUESDAY TO THE MID 70S WEDNESDAY. SUNSHI
