303 AM EDT Sun Oct 5 2025
.DISCUSSION...
Gusty easterly winds will continue to favor some higher dispersions,
especially across Central Florida and the Nature Coast. Thunderstorms
are also expected this afternoon and may linger into the evening
before moving offshore. Plenty of moisture will remain to keep RH
values elevated. This pattern will repeat through the week. Thus,
no significant fire weather concerns exist at this time.
Fog potential...No significant fog is expected.
