Morning mist moves out for a sunnier Friday afternoon

As the clouds begin to clear, the Weather Authority is tracking Friday afternoon highs in the lower 60s after some morning mist moves out.

The Weather Authority Meteorologist Zach Maloch said, “A stagnant area of low pressure is beginning to slowly move away from our area, which is why we are still seeing increased cloud coverage and mist at the start of Friday. The clouds will clear out throughout the day, and temperatures will slightly increase compared to the rest of the week.”

Friday

After a cold weather advisory for some Southwest Florida counties with temperatures in the 40s for the Friday morning commute, highs will be a little milder and top out in the upper 50s to lower 60s.

Clouds will be clearing throughout the day, and we’ll see a partly cloudy sky this Friday afternoon.

Saturday

Near-record cold temperatures will be with us Saturday morning as we start the day in the 30s.

These cold temperatures can lead to frost for many Southwest Florida communities.

Temperatures will warm up, and we’ll see a warmer afternoon with highs in the mid to upper 60s.

Expect a mostly sunny sky throughout the afternoon.

Sunday

Sunday morning will be mostly clear and chilly, with temperatures in the 40s.

We’ll see a few clouds throughout the day, with warmer air moving in.

Highs will top out in the lower to mid-70s for your Sunday afternoon plans.
