DISCUSSION
Issued at 247 AM EDT Mon Apr 27 2026
A weak cold front will push through today bringing some isolated showers and storms mainly in SW Florida. Besides that we can expect another warm day with highs in the mid 80's. After the front passage we will see some drier air filter into our mid layers. This will help to prevent any shower activity from forming all week. The only exception to that will be along the Nature Coast on Thursday as a quick moving front moves through North Florida producing some isolated storms. The drier air will also help to bring more sunshine keeping highs around 90 degrees from Tuesday through Friday.
As we go through next weekend we will see a more significant cold front heading our way. We will start seeing some increased moisture ahead on the front on Saturday resulting in some isolated showers and storms. As we head into our Sunday that is when we start seeing some differences in models. The GFS is faster bringing the more significant shower activity through during the day on Sunday. On the other hand the EURO is a little slowing bring the highest chances Sunday night into early Monday morning. Currently we will just keep scattered storm chances in the forecast from Sunday afternoon through Monday morning.
