February heatwave continues this weekend

The February heatwave rages on this weekend, with highs in the mid to upper 80s today and tomorrow.

With high pressure dominating the region, expect lots of sun with a light easterly breeze.

A weak trough will dig into the eastern United States early next week, which will push a cold front across the area on Monday. The front will only bring a slight chance of a shower, with temperatures dropping to more seasonable levels. This doesn’t last though, with highs flirting with 90 once again by the end of the week.

Fort Myers broke a heat record today at 89°. The previous record was set back in 1962.
