A Windy Friday as We Swing from Record-Tying Highs to FloridaCold™ Lows

After a week of high temperatures just shy of 90 degrees, Our Stupid Winter is taking pity on us and throwing a cold front our way. With it, today’s highs are expected to struggle to hit 60 degrees even with the daytime heating, and temps tonight will drop into the 40s. As the front blows through, some misty rain is in the cards, along with gusty winds up to 35 MPH. The National Weather Service has issued a wind advisory outlining the impact.
