Nice mild weather today in Central Florida

OFFICIALLY ENDS JANUARY 4TH, AND IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON HITTING THE ROADS, THE WEATHER IS LOOKING NICE, SO IT SHOULD BE SMOOTH SAILING WEATHER WISE, AT LEAST IN OUR AREA, RIGHT? LIKE YOU GET INTO THE NORTHEAST, THERE’S SOME DECENT SNOWS TODAY, BUT HERE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA THE RADAR MOSTLY QUIET. THERE’S A FEW SHOWERS IN BREVARD COUNTY, BUT LOOK AT THE SEVEN DAY FORECAST. IT’S ABOUT AS QUIET AS CAN BE. HIGH TEMPERATURES HANGING OUT IN THE UPPER 70S TO THE LOWER 80S. NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN HERE LOCALLY WILL BE ON MONDAY. AND THAT’S BECAUSE THERE’S A COLD FRONT MOVING OUR DIRECTION. THAT’S THE NEXT COLD FRONT THAT BRINGS IN SHOWERS COULD BRING IN A THUNDERSHOWER, BUT THAT’S GOING TO BE IT. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT THE FORECAST, WE’RE WARM UP TO THAT POINT. THEN THERE’S A SIGNIFICANT DROP, A 22 DEGREE DROP IN TEMPERATURES FROM SUNDAY’S HIGH OF 80 DEGREES TO TUESDAY’S HIGH OF 58 DEGREES. YEAH. AND ONE OTHER THING, TOO, SINCE WE’RE DISCUSSING THE FORECAST CHANGES, BOTH THE AMERICAN GFS AND THE EUROPEAN MODELS SHOWING NOT JUST THAT DIP, BUT NOW THEY’RE GIVING US SEVERAL DAYS OF COOLER AIR, INCLUDING NEW YEAR’S DAY. BOTH THE GFS AND THE EUROPEAN. SO WE MAY HAVE A LITTLE STRETCH OF SWEATER WEATHER RIGHT AROUND THE NEW YEAR’S EVE NEW YEAR’S DAY HOLIDAY. BUT IN THE MEANTIME, WE’RE SITTING A BIT WARM. SO FOR CHRISTMAS, IT’S GOING TO BE STILL FAIRLY WARM. BASICALLY THE SAME FORECAST AS WHAT WE ARE SEEING TODAY. A COMFORTABLY COOL MORNING, MILD LUNCH HOUR, AND A NICE, WONDERFULLY WARM AFTERNOON TIME FRAME. SO IF YOU’RE PLAYING OUTSIDE, WE DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MUCH. AND CERTAINLY THERE IS A 0.0% CHANCE OF A WHITE CHRISTMAS HERE. LOCALLY. DAYTONA BEACH GOOD MORNING. BEGINNING WITH A LIVE LOOK THERE. NOT MUCH TO SEE. TEMPERATURES IN THE 50S. LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE THOUGH, INTO BREVARD COUNTY, UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S BECAUSE THE WINDS ARE KICKING IN JUST ENOUGH THERE TO BRING IN SOME OF THAT HUMIDITY. AND WE’RE ALSO BRINGING IN SOME MOISTURE IN TERMS OF A FEW SHOWERS FROM CAPE CANAVERAL, PORT CANAVERAL, DOWN THROUGH ABOUT PATRICK SPACE FORCE BASE, NOTHING STRONGER, SEVERE, BUT CERTAINLY JUST A FEW SHOWERS. PESKY LITTLE BUGGERS TO BOTHER US THIS MORNING. TEMPERATURES TODAY, WORKING THROUGH TO THE 70S. ROOM TEMPERATURE HERE IN PALM COAST AT 75 DAYTONA BEACH, 78 DEGREES IN ORLANDO AND 79 HERE IN WINTER HAVEN. IF YOUR PLANS TAKE YOU OVER TO THE THEME PARKS, HAPPY TO SAY IT’S LOOKING GREAT. MAGIC KINGDOM OPENS UP AT 8 A.M. AND STAYS OPEN TONIGHT UNTIL 11:00. BEAUTIFUL SUNSHINE THROUGH THE DAY AND A NICE LIGHT BREEZE THOUGH WITH THAT ONSHORE COMPONENT, IF YOU’RE HEADING OVER TO THE BEACHES, JUST KNOW THERE’S A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS. IT’S PROBABLY BEST TO STAY ON THE BEACH SAND. SO HERE WE ARE WITH A NICE ONSHORE BREEZE, A WEAK LITTLE FRONT SNEAKS BY US WITH JUST ENOUGH OF A CHANGE TO ADJUST THE MORNING LOWS. SO THIS MORNING TEMPERATURES TO START ARE IN THE 60S FOR THE METRO. WE’RE BACK DOWN INTO THE 50S FOR TOMORROW, BUT BASICALLY THE NEXT FEW DAYS ARE LOOKING WONDERFUL. HIGHS AROUND 80 DEGREES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A COUPLE OF SPRINKLES AROUND AT THE BEACHES.
