TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Drivers across North Florida should brace for a wet and foggy start to the week as thunderstorms and low visibility create hazards on key routes, including Interstate 10. The unsettled pattern could disrupt Monday afternoon travel and linger into Tuesday before October begins with clearer skies.
According to the National Weather Service in Tallahassee, a 20 percent chance of showers and storms develops after 2 p.m. Monday, with patchy fog possible between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. Winds from the north and northeast may gust near 10 mph, adding to visibility concerns. Motorists should allow extra travel time, keep headlights on, and avoid sudden lane changes in storm-prone areas.
Tallahassee sees a low chance of showers Monday night, but Tuesday brings drier conditions with highs near 86. Northeast winds will stay light, keeping humidity manageable. By Wednesday, October 1, skies clear with plenty of sun and highs again in the mid-80s. The calmer stretch should hold through Thursday before isolated showers return late in the week.
While this week’s storm risk remains scattered, drivers should prepare for sudden downpours and use caution on highways like I-10 and US-27. Residents are encouraged to check forecasts daily as weather can shift quickly in early fall.
Conditions trend more favorable for outdoor plans as October begins, but storm chances return by Friday and Saturday. Alerts may be issued if rainfall intensifies later in the week.
