.UPDATE...
Issued at 732 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

The main change to the forecast this evening was to expand the
Cold Weather Advisory down to the coast. Even if we reach criteria
for only an hour or two, it will still be a big shock to the
system given recent warmth. Otherwise, the only other change was
to lower dew points as we are trending below blended guidance.

.SHORT TERM...
(This Evening through Tuesday Night)
Issued at 152 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

Winds will continue to be gusty through tonight as Cold Air
Advection continues to push through following yesterday`s cold
front. As a result, temperatures will be falling through the night
into the low 30s and upper 20s by daybreak Monday. The elevated
winds will cause apparent temperatures to be very cold with wind
chills in the low 20s. A Cold Weather Advisory has been issued for
tonight for the entire CWA, excluding the coastal zones. Expect
breezy conditions to continue during the day on Monday with
temperatures for the afternoon in the upper 40s north of I-10, and
low 50s to the south. Winds will start to relax as the sun sets
Monday evening. Lighter winds and clear skies will keep the region
cold as we can expect radiational cooling. Actual temperatures
will likely fall to the mid and upper 20s for Monday night into
Tuesday morning. A Cold Weather Advisory for Monday night may be
required and there is about a 50% chance for a hard freeze in our
GA counties.

Temperatures will gradually start to warm during the day Tuesday
with highs in the mid to upper 50s with light westerly winds.
Tuesday morning will likely have frost throughout the area as we
will be below freezing in the morning with light winds.

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday through next Saturday)
Issued at 152 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

Temperatures will continue to warm as we start the long term
heading into the weekend. A cold front will again approach the
region late Thursday into Friday, bringing our next chance for
showers and thunderstorms. PoPs at this moment are about 40-80
percent with higher chances to the northwest. Temperatures won`t
take much of a hit with this frontal passage with highs remaining
in the 70s and lows in the 50s.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 556 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

Frequent gusts to 30 kt are expected for the next couple hours,
but should subside somewhat to 20 to 25 kt for the rest of the
night. Gusty winds continue through much of the day Monday at all
terminals. VFR conditions are expected otherwise.

.MARINE...
Issued at 152 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

A strong cold front plowed across the waters early this morning
and is being followed by gale and near-gale northwesterlies. A
Gale Warning is in effect for the coastal waters west of
Apalachicola and has been extended into Monday afternoon. A Small
Craft Advisory remains in effect for the waters east of
Apalachicola into Monday night. Seas offshore will peak around 7
to 10 feet on Monday morning. Northwest winds will subside on
Tuesday with more tranquil boating conditions by Tuesday night.
That may be short- lived, with a medium (40 to 60 percent) chance
of advisory-level conditions centered on Wednesday and Thursday.
By Thursday, sea fog may return, especially over Apalachee Bay.

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 152 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

A strong cold frontal passage early this morning sets the stage
for brisk northwest winds today through Monday, as well as a very
dry air mass through Tuesday. For today, Significant Fire
Potential is highest in the FL Big Bend, where 20ft winds increase
to around 15 mph and minimum afternoon RH falls into the mid-20s.
These factors meet the criteria for red flag conditions, thus a
Red Flag Warning is in effect for much of FL Big Bend this
afternoon and evening, as any fire ignitions may get quickly out
of control. On Monday, there is a medium (40 to 70 percent) chance
of critical fire weather conditions for portions of the FL Big
Bend. At this time, we`re not meeting the 20ft wind criteria for
red flag conditIons on Monday in the FL Big Bend. Otherwise,
expect high dispersion today and again Monday over much of the
region.
