.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 205 PM EST Tue Dec 23 2025

Surface high pressure will continue to dominate the weather
through the weekend as it settles over the eastern gulf waters
and Florida peninsula with an upper level ridge remaining over the
gulf. Therefore, we`ll continue to see comfortable temperatures
and humidity with the only potential issue being some late night
and early morning fog each day through the weekend, especially
across the Nature Coast. Early next week an upper level trough and
associated cold front will move across the eastern U.S. and
through our region late Monday/early Tuesday. There could be
enough moisture for a few showers ahead of and along this front,
otherwise cold high pressure will build in behind it bringing
much cooler drier air into the region for the last few days of the
year. Current indications are that we could see freezing
temperatures across parts of the Nature Coast next Wednesday
morning.

.AVIATION...

Issued at 205 PM EST Tue Dec 23 2025

.MARINE...
Issued at 205 PM EST Tue Dec 23 2025

High pressure will hold over the waters through the period. Winds
will continue to subside tonight, with relatively benign
conditions for the remainder of the week. There is the possibility
of some land fog advecting over the near shore waters early in the
mornings later this week.

Issued at 205 PM EST Tue Dec 23 2025
