As heat indices (the combined effects of actual air temperature and relative humidity) inch closer to 90°F this weekend the last thing that you are probably thinking about is an Arctic blast of frigid air that much of the rest of the continent is currently experiencing.
Our turn comes next Wednesday night into Thursday morning. From what I am tracking right now it now appears that we will briefly experience our coldest air since the last week of January. Temperatures could plummet down to the mid-30s near the Lake Okeechobee region – and the mid-40s here in Homestead ! Next Thursday could be a downright chilly day for us as afternoon highs struggle to reach the upper-60s !
This scenario is still about 5 days out, and weather conditions constantly develop and evolve. I’ll take another look at this potential frigid outbreak for us in a couple of days and advise accordingly. Stay tuned.
