Tallahassee, FL – Florida residents should brace for a weekend of volatile weather as the National Weather Service (NWS) in Tallahassee monitors the potential for strong to severe thunderstorms, followed by rising temperatures. According to the latest Day-3 Outlook, valid from Saturday morning through Sunday, a Marginal Risk (Level 1 of 4) for severe storms has been identified for areas just short of southern Alabama, as a cold front is expected to sweep down from the Northwest.
The NWS indicates that this front could lead to thunderstorms across the Tri-State area, with the possibility of an expanded Marginal Risk depending on how weather conditions evolve. In addition to storm threats, the heat is set to intensify across the region. Tallahassee can expect daytime temperatures to reach the mid-90s this weekend, with highs of 95°F on Saturday and 96°F on Sunday. The heat will continue into early next week, with temperatures expected to hover around the mid-90s.
Residents are urged to stay updated on the latest weather alerts and take precautions during severe weather and high heat periods.
