Cold Front Reaches South Florida, Modestly Dropping Temperatures

A weak cold front is pushing through South Florida and will stall out just to our south Monday morning.

Before the front’s passage, we broke a record in Miami on Sunday afternoon at 91 degrees and tied a record in Key West at 89 degrees. With the front pushing south, winds picked up out of the northeast and gusted to 25 mph Sunday night and Monday.

While this is not a huge front for South Florida like it was in northern parts of Florida, where the temperature dropped by twenty degrees, it is still going to take us from the lower 90s Sunday to the lower-to-mid-80s on Monday.

The biggest difference will be the humidity, which will drop all night leaving us with refreshing conditions for Monday.

In northern Florida, the front is so strong it’s bringing winter-like dew points in the 30s, which is incredibly dry air. Humidity levels slowly rise toward next Saturday as an even stronger cold front pushes through bringing gorgeous, fall-like weather by next Sunday.

There is a Small Craft Advisory for all boaters Monday and there is a high risk for rip currents at all Atlantic beaches Monday & Tuesday.
