IT\u2019S IT\u2019S WILD. I\u2019M TRACKING 90. I\u2019M TALKING HURRICANES NOW. Y\u2019ALL LIKE WINTER IS DONE. NO. FLORIDA I SAY THAT THOUGH, BUT MY BIG WEATHER STORY IS A COLD FRONT. OH, IT\u2019S JUST COLD WITH THIS, RIGHT? BECAUSE TEMPERATURE, IT\u2019S NOT LIKE IT\u2019S GOING TO REALLY DROP TEMPERATURES. IT JUST KIND OF BURSTS OUR HEAT BUBBLE A LITTLE BIT. SO WE\u2019LL BE BRINGING OUR TEMPERATURES UP THESE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. SUNDAY\u2019S HIGH 92 DEGREES. MONDAY\u2019S HIGH 82 DEGREES. SO YES IT DROPS TEMPERATURES ABOUT TEN DEGREES. BUT IT\u2019S STILL THE 70S OF THE BEACHES AND THE 80S ACROSS THE INLAND AREAS. SO IT\u2019S NOT LIKE IT\u2019S GOING TO BE A HUGE WHIPLASH IN READINGS, RIGHT? THE REALITY IS THESE NEXT FEW DAYS, WE JUST REALLY BUILD IN THE HEAT. THEN THAT FIRST FRONT MOVES THROUGH, BUILD UP THE HEAT AGAIN, AND THEN IT LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER WEAKER FRONT MOVES IN AROUND THE 27, 28, 29TH OF APRIL. YOU NOTICE, THOUGH, IT DOESN\u2019T PUT US BACK INTO THE UPPER 70S AND LOWER 80S. SO THAT FRONT LOOKS WEAKER AND OF COURSE WEAKER WEAKER. EVENTUALLY WE DON\u2019T GET COLD FRONTS. SO WE\u2019RE DEFINITELY STARTING TO MAKE THAT TRANSITION MORE AND MORE TOWARD MAY AND MORE AND MORE TOWARDS SUMMER. NOW, THAT SAID, LOOKING AT FUTURECAST, THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS WE STAY REALLY NICE AND DRY THROUGH SUNDAY, THEN INTO MONDAY, THAT FRONT MOVES IN AND WE SEE A FEW SHOWERS. NOT SIGNIFICANT, BUT THERE\u2019S AT LEAST A MENTION OF A FEW SHOWERS ON THAT NORTHEASTERLY BREEZE, SO JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND. WE\u2019RE PUTTING IN ABOUT A 20% COVERAGE OF RAIN ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY ISH, BUT FOR OUR WEEKEND BOTH DAYS GET THE CHECK MARK. IT\u2019S GOING TO BE GREAT. GREAT WEATHER. HIGHS IN THE LOWER 90S. IF YOU\u2019RE LOOKING FOR THINGS TO DO, THE SUN N FUN FLY IN STARTED YESTERDAY. THE FORECAST OVER THESE NEXT FEW DAYS IN LAKELAND BRINGS THOSE TEMPERATURES INTO THE 90S. AWFUL QUICK AIR SHOWS, INCLUDING A SATURDAY NIGHT AIR SHOW, A KIDS ZONE AND STATIC DISPLAYS. IT\u2019S GOING TO BE A FANTASTIC FORECAST. YOU CAN ALSO HEAD OVER TO THE ATTRACTIONS LIVE, LOOK IN AT EPIC UNIVERSE DARK AND EARLY TEMPERATURES THERE HANGING OUT IN THE LOW TO MID 60S. WE HAVE 50S TO THE NORTH, 70 OVER INTO BREVARD COUNTY AND I\u2019M NOT TRACKING ANYTHING ON OUR FIRST WARNING LIVE RADAR. SO FOR TODAY UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S FOR THE BEACHES, MID 80S FOR THE METRO THOUGH NOTICE YOU GO OUT WEST AND IT GETS HOT. 88 IN WILDWOOD TODAY, 89 DEGREES IN OCALA. WE\u2019RE JUST BRINGING UP THOSE TEMPERATURES. IF YOU\u2019RE HEADING OUT TO EPIC UNIVERSE, TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO CLIMB QUICKLY. OPENS UP AT 10 A.M. IT\u2019S GOING TO BE A GREAT DAY GETTING INTO THE BACKYARD SWIMMING POOL. ALSO A GREAT DAY. BEACH BOATING FORECAST REMAINS ROUGH AT HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS. SEAS OFFSHORE HAVE SUBSIDED AND SURF IS RUNNING 1 TO 2. IT\u2019S THE RIP CURRENTS THAT WE\u2019RE WORRIED ABOUT. SO SWIM AT A GUARDED BEACH. DO NOT GO TOO DEEP IN. ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT. LOTS OF SUNSHINE NEAR RECORD HEAT THIS WEEKEND.
