Drier, cooler air on its way to South Florida
MIAMI - After a mild Friday, cool change is on the way courtesy of a front down the state.
After a pleasant morning with temperatures in the 60s, Friday afternoon highs will climb to around 80 degrees under a mostly sunny sky.
The wind has turned to the northwest, and eventually, it will start bringing in drier, cooler air from the front. The less humid air will arrive Friday night along with the cooler temperatures. We will likely set our low temperature for Friday just before midnight Saturday with temperatures falling into the lower 60s by then. Grab the coat if you head out Friday night, temperatures will drop quickly after sunset.
Temperatures on Saturday and Sunday will start in the middle 50s near the coast and low 50s inland.
Temperatures will climb just above 70 degrees in the afternoon. Expect bright sunshine with a few clouds each afternoon. There will be a chilly breeze Saturday morning, making it feel a little cooler, and by Sunday it will be calmer but just as cool.
No rain is forecast through Sunday as the cooler and less humid air lingers over South Florida.
The humidity returns next week as the cool north breeze shifts to the northeast and eventually the east. Milder mornings will be followed by slightly warmer afternoons. Enough moisture will be picked up by the breeze to put a few showers back in the forecast for the holiday week.
Winter begins on Saturday. This is the day we experience the least amount of daylight at 10 hours and 31 minutes between sunrise and sunset. Over the next few months, the sun will get higher in the sky as the days get longer and longer.
