- The next cold front approaches and moves through the area Tuesday/Tuesday night bringing the next chance of showers and thunderstorms.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 230 AM EST Sun Nov 30 2025

High pressure along the eastern seaboard will drift east out into the western Atlantic Ocean today, but continue to ridge southwest across the Florida peninsula as an upper level trough well to the north pushes a frontal boundary into the southeast states. The east to northeast flow and moderating trend will therefore continue across the area. The frontal boundary will stall across north Florida Monday as the trough moves off to the east, but a stronger deeper trough and associated shortwave energy will be moving through the central U.S. and into the eastern states during Tuesday. This will push the front southward with breezy south to southwest winds setting up ahead of it bringing some deeper moisture north leading to a decent chance of showers and possibly a few thunderstorms to the area beginning late Monday night and continuing into Tuesday afternoon. The actual cold front will move southeast through the region late Tuesday and Tuesday night. Behind it, high pressure will build in during midweek with northerly winds ushering in some cooler drier air once again. However, the temperatures will not be quite as cool as those that we had behind the last front during the end of last week. By late in the week winds will veer to the to east to southeast with temperatures moderating once again as the next frontal boundary moves into the southeast states. Some moisture will return ahead of this next system and we could therefore see a few showers, especially across the Nature Coast, next weekend.
