TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) – Very warm weather through your holiday with dense fog possible through Friday morning.
🎅Christmas Eve fog:
A warm and sunny Christmas Eve is expected with highs in the upper 70s. If you have any last-minute shopping, the weather will be spectacular. Just remember to bring those sunglasses.
Rudolph’s red nose will be helpful across the southeast tonight since I am expecting a favorable setup for some dense fog to develop. This could lead to some minor travel delays if you are driving or flying.
It looks like the thickest fog will be west of the area. If you are traveling to Mississippi, Alabama or Louisiana, you may face the worst of the travel along I-10.
Low temperatures will be mild in the upper 40s to low 50s.
🎄Christmas Day warmth:
A foggy start to your holiday is expected, but the fog should burn off fairly quickly by mid to late-morning. Sunshine will return for most of your holiday, leading to another very warm day. Highs are expected to reach the mid to upper 70s once again.
This will not be a record warm afternoon, but close. The warmest Christmas Day in Tallahassee history was 82 degrees in 2016, followed by 81 in 2015. Check out some other dates in the video above.
🚗Friday Travel weather:
Another foggy morning is expected on Friday. I think Friday morning may actually be the most difficulty travel morning for a lot of folks in the area. High pressure will be just to our south bringing in moisture from the Gulf. With Generally light winds, fog will develop pretty quickly leading to dense fog across the region. Travel on the roadways and airports in the southeast may become a problem. Keep updated with the weather as conditions change. You can get updates and alerts with the FREE WCTV First Alert Weather App.
Friday afternoon will be warm for many, however it is highly dependent on when the fog and low clouds break. The earlier we see this happen, the warmer we get. I think by lunchtime the fog should be gone and low clouds begin to break.
Highs will reach the low to mid 70s for most of the area once again. No rain is expected.
😎Christmas weekend:
The warmth sticks around for your holiday weekend. Temperatures will stay in the 70s with partly sunny skies. There is a small chance for showers on Monday as a weak cold front approaches the southeast. The temperatures should drop significantly by early next week.
