Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report

EOC Activation Level: Level 2

Meteorological Summary:

A few areas of dense fog have developed across the Panhandle this morning and will linger through the mid-morning hours before dissipating, and Dense Fog Advisories will remain in effect until 10 AM EST.
Otherwise, another sunny and dry day is on tap for the Sunshine State as high pressure remains anchored right over the state.
Warm and dry conditions will continue to worsen drought conditions which may lead to locally sensitive wildfire conditions across much of the state today, despite relative humidities remaining above critical thresholds.
High temperatures will climb into the middle to upper 70s across North Florida this afternoon, with a few lower 80s possible. Upper 70s to lower 80s can be expected in Central and South Florida.
Clear and calm conditions will prevail overnight.
Lingering low-level moisture and warmer temperatures will promote another night of low cloud and patchy fog development overnight and towards daybreak Saturday morning.

Locally dense fog could develop across portions of the Panhandle and Big Bend and Dense Fog Advisories will be issued as conditions warrant tonight.

Low temperatures will dip into the middle 50s across much of the Peninsula tonight, as far south as interior South Florida. Lows will only reach the middle to upper 60s across coastal Southeast Florida and the Florida Keys.
Across North Florida, warmer overnight lows are expected over the Panhandle, only reaching the upper 50s to lower 60s.
A moderate risk for rip currents is expected for all Panhandle, Space Coast, and Treasure Coast beaches today.
