Central Florida is set to experience a frigid start to the weekend, with temperatures dropping into the thirties and forties overnight. The cold front that moved in is causing temperatures to plummet, especially in Marion County, where it may feel like the twenties with the wind chill. However, there is some relief in sight as temperatures are expected to gradually warm up as the weekend progresses. By Monday, temperatures should reach the lower fifties, providing some respite from the chill. Despite the cold start, Central Florida can look forward to a warmer finish to the weekend, with temperatures climbing back into the upper sixties on Saturday and the seventies on Sunday.
The cold front has brought cloudy skies to the region, hindering temperature rises during the day. As high pressure settles in over the weekend, residents can expect clear skies and sunshine, allowing for some thawing out. However, Wednesday may bring another change in weather with a low-pressure system and cold front expected to bring a 60% chance of showers. This will lead to a decrease in temperatures once again, with highs dropping back into the sixties. Overall, Central Florida residents can expect a mix of cold starts and warmer finishes to the week, so be sure to bundle up during the chilly mornings and enjoy the milder afternoons.
