Tallahassee, FL – A thick fog blanketed parts of the Florida Panhandle early Monday, slowing drivers and reducing visibility to less than a quarter mile in some areas. The haze, mixed with humid morning air, is the first sign of a transitional weather week that brings both rain and a Thanksgiving cool-down.
According to the National Weather Service in Tallahassee, a Dense Fog Advisory remains in effect through 10 a.m. for Leon County and surrounding areas. Drivers should use low beams and extra caution, particularly along I-10 and Route 319, where road visibility may fluctuate through midmorning. Once fog lifts, skies will clear, pushing highs near 79°F this afternoon and into the lower 80s on Tuesday.
By Wednesday, a cold front sweeps through North Florida, bringing showers and isolated thunderstorms. Gusty winds and falling temperatures will follow — a shift that sets up a crisp, sunny Thanksgiving Day. Highs will dip into the mid-60s Thursday with lows dropping into the 40s by nightfall, giving the region its first “holiday sweater” feel of the season.
The weekend looks bright and mild, ideal for family outings, travel, or post-holiday shopping across the Panhandle.
Five-Day Outlook for Tallahassee, FL:
- Tuesday: Mostly sunny, high 80°F.
- Wednesday: Showers likely, high 78°F.
- Thanksgiving Day: Sunny, high 64°F.
- Friday: Sunny, high 68°F.
