The only area that’s not experiencing a drought. It’s from Alachua County northward towards Tallahassee through Pensacola. There’s a small area with the abnormally dry conditions from Apalachicola through Panama City Beach. These are the driest months of the year.

    The cold front cleared the state late on Wednesday evening, and Thursday will be a transitional day as the winds slowly shift with the high-pressure system, which will also move eastward. The repositioning of the high-pressure system will bring winds from the east throughout the weekend and for much of the following week. The week ends with elevated fire danger across Central and Southwest Florida. The humidity will be very low, and there will be gusty winds.

    A cold front will push through Florida, bringing a chance for severe storms on Friday night. This line will continue to push southward, and some showers could affect Central Florida overnight into the morning hours of Saturday. By late Saturday morning, some scattered showers and more isolated storms will arrive at Lake Okeechobee. As the front becomes more diffused, the chance for even fewer storms is still in the forecast for South Florida, but it will be even more scarce on Saturday afternoon.

    South Carolina will have a busy Friday with showers and storms moving through the region as a low-pressure system spins nearby and exits just in time to start the weekend. Once it exits, this same system will pull cold air over the Palmetto State, dominating the weekend and returning to a warm trend on Monday.
