Your Weather Planner
A strong late winter cold front sweeping down the peninsula will bring us one last shot of chilly air for the season. We’ll wake up with lows in the upper 40s, although dipping into the upper 30s in Marion County early Tuesday. Anticipate a breezy day with sun and scattered clouds as highs struggle to hit 60 in most neighborhoods.
Even chillier air greets us on the way to work or running errands on Wednesday, with lows in the mid to upper 40s. Clouds and sun mixed will keep our temperature climb slow, but we’ll manage the upper 60s to lower 70s for highs. We gradually climb into the 80s for our first weekend of spring, with dry conditions ahead, too.

Highs:Â Lower 60s
Lows:Â Upper 40s
