Florida — A light veil of predawn fog drifts over Tallahassee’s pine stands and quiet neighborhoods, softening headlights and casting a silvery sheen on damp pavement. The air feels still and crisp, hinting at another round of Thanksgiving travel complications as fog pockets build through the morning rush.
Drivers should plan extra time on I-10, US-90, and US-27, where low visibility can appear suddenly in dips and wooded stretches. Calm winds increase the staying power of these thin fog layers, and early commuters may notice reduced visibility through sunrise. Air travelers should monitor updates from Tallahassee International, as shallow fog sometimes delays early departures.
Clearer skies settle in by midday, pushing highs near the upper 70s with warm November sunshine. To be fair, this pattern offers excellent conditions for outdoor prep—yard work, holiday shopping, and early arrivals. Yet the fog signal grows again Wednesday morning, when another damp, calm start favors renewed low clouds across Leon, Gadsden, and Jefferson Counties.
By Thursday, travelers wake to a similar setup. Models hint at a slightly thicker fog layer before sunshine returns quickly, driving highs into the low 80s. No cold snap, rain band, or winter tease appears in the region, but fog remains the top travel issue as holiday movement accelerates.
Friday stays mostly sunny with a southwest breeze and mild warmth. The air feels seasonally pleasant for gatherings or decorating, though a few patchy fog spots may linger at daybreak.
A weak shower chance surfaces Saturday afternoon, but impacts appear minor and brief. Most outdoor plans and family arrivals should move smoothly across north Florida.
Thanksgiving visitors arriving this week can expect warm, stable weather—just be ready for morning fog that slows the start of each day.
