Florida expects season’s coldest air this weekend

A cold front moving across Florida Thursday into Friday is expected to bring the coolest air of the fall so far, following a mostly warm start to the week. South Florida could see morning lows in the mid-50s over the weekend and highs in the low 70s, with rain chances diminishing after the front passes. In Central Florida, highs are forecast in the 60s and overnight lows mainly in the 40s; breezy conditions could make it feel like the low 40s, with some inland areas possibly reaching wind chills in the upper 30s. Tampa and Fort Myers are also expected to turn cooler, with weekend lows in the 40s and highs generally in the upper 60s to low 70s.
