Florida – A cool gray start gives way to clearing skies, but the cold lingers close to the ground. Breath fogs lightly, lawns feel damp, and jackets stay on longer than expected across North Florida.

According to the National Weather Service in Tallahassee, temperatures dip into the lower 30s tonight, with patchy frost possible by early Friday morning. Northwest winds ease after sunset, allowing cold air to settle quickly across Leon County and surrounding inland areas.

Tallahassee reaches the low 50s later today as clouds thin. Conditions improve by afternoon, but the colder air mass remains in place. By Friday morning, sheltered spots could briefly touch freezing. Drivers may notice reduced visibility in low-lying areas where light fog mixes with cool air before sunrise.

Friday rebounds quickly. Sunshine dominates, and highs climb into the mid-60s by afternoon. Friday night stays chilly but less severe, with lows in the low 40s. Any frost threat fades fast.

The weekend brings a noticeable shift. Saturday and Sunday stay sunny and dry, with highs in the low to mid-60s and cool but comfortable nights. Outdoor plans should fare well, though early mornings still feel crisp.

Looking ahead, warmth builds steadily into early next week. Highs climb into the low 70s by Monday and push toward the mid-70s by midweek. NOAA’s 6–10 day outlook supports above-normal temperatures across much of the Southeast, hinting at an early taste of spring after this brief February chill.

Protect sensitive plants tonight and bring pets indoors. How cold did it feel in your neighborhood this morning?
