A cold front is providing South Florida with some slight relief from the heat this Thanksgiving, with nighttime temperatures reaching the upper 60s and lower 70s.
The cold front will push through late Wednesday night and early Thursday morning, said Chris Fisher, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service. The forecast calls for temps in the upper 60s to lower 70s each night from Wednesday through the weekend. Thanksgiving Day will see a high around 81 degrees during the day with partly sunny skies and a low of around 67 degrees at night.
“We’ll drop a couple degrees and also lower humidity a little bit, so it’ll feel more comfortable out there,” Fisher said.
The cold front is associated with a system moving across the eastern half of the country, Fisher said, and it will be the first in a series of cold fronts pushing through the region throughout next week.
“They’re all going to be the same case,” he said. “It’s just going to kind of hold our temperature steady, right around where they should be so, no significant cooldowns. But we also won’t be really hot either.”
