I FEEL THAT WAY. YEAH. ONCE HURRICANE SEASON WAS QUIETING DOWN. BUT LET’S TALK ABOUT THE BIG WEATHER EVENTS. OKAY. I WENT BACK DIGGING AND I ASKED MY FRIENDS ON COFFEE TALK LIKE, WHAT DO YOU THINK? THESE WERE THE THREE BIG EVENTS AND TWO OF THEM WERE HURRICANES. FIRST OFF, DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN WE SAW THE NORTHERN LIGHTS? YEAH, BACK IN MAY? OKAY. YOU DON’T SEE THAT EVERY DAY. SEPTEMBER. OF COURSE, IN THE BIG BEND, HURRICANE HELENE MADE LANDFALL. RECORD STORM SURGE FOR JUST ABOUT EVERY TIDAL GAUGE OVER ON THE GULF COAST. AND THEN IN OCTOBER, OF COURSE, HURRICANE MILTON MADE LANDFALL, CAUSING THE BIGGEST TORNADO OUTBREAK IN FLORIDA HISTORY. BUT THEN AGAIN, THANKFULLY IT’S DONE. AND OVER WITH. WE’RE ABLE TO GET INTO SOME QUIETER WEATHER, AND NOW WE’RE JUST KIND OF WATCHING SOME CLOUDS AND SOME FOG. EVEN A FEW SHOWERS, DENSE FOG ADVISORIES FOR JUST ABOUT ALL OF CENTRAL FLORIDA. OUR NORTHERN SPOTS NOT INCLUDED BECAUSE YOU’RE DEALING WITH SHOWERS AND LOW CLOUDS, BUT VISIBILITY NUMBERS ARE DEFINITELY LIMITED. AND THE CLOUD CEILING, THE BASE OF THE CLOUDS DEFINITELY LOWERING THREE, FOUR, 500FT ACROSS MANY LOCATIONS HERE IN OCALA. A LITTLE BIT OF FOG, BUT WE’RE ALSO TRACKING SHOWERS. TEMPERATURES OUT THE DOOR. NICE AND COMFY. WE’RE IN THE 60S AREA WIDE, BUT LOOK AT MARION COUNTY. SOME RAIN WORKING IN WILL SKIRT NORTH THROUGH OCALA INTO ANTHONY CITRA AND REDDICK. MORE RAIN HERE AROUND CHIEFLAND THAT WILL BE WORKING IN. AND EVENTUALLY ALL OF THIS KIND OF SNEAKS ON THROUGH CENTRAL FLORIDA. SO WE DO INCLUDE AT LEAST THE MENTION OF A FEW SHOWERS TODAY, 20%, BUT AFTERWARD IT TURNS SUNNY AND IT TURNS CHILLY. A BIG PATTERN SHIFT AS OUR NEXT COLD FRONT SNEAKS ON THROUGH AND USHERS IN SOME OF THAT COOLER, DRIER AIR WITH A BIT OF A WIND SHIFT. SO FOR PLANS TONIGHT, WHILE YES, WE DO HAVE SHOWERS TODAY, THAT ALL CLEARS NICELY. I THINK WE’RE GOING TO HAVE A FANTASTIC RINGING IN OF THE NEW YEAR. AND THEN FOR TOMORROW WE’RE LOOKING COOLER HIGHS INSTEAD OF HITTING ABOUT 80. WE’LL GET TO ABOUT 70 FOR OUR DAYTIME. BUT FOR TODAY IT’S WARM. AND WE DO HAVE A FEW SHOWERS IN THE MIX, WORKING UP TO ABOUT 80 DEGREES BY 3:00 THIS AFTERNOON FOR TOMORROW, 71. THEN HIGHS IN THE 60S THURSDAY, FRIDAY. LOOK AT SATURDAY, SUNDAY. HIGHS IN THE 50S AND THEN LOOKING AHEAD TO ABOUT THE SEVENTH, EIGHTH, NINTH, 10TH, COLD FRONT STORM SYSTEM ALL KIND OF WORKING INTO OUR AREA. THIS IS A BIG ONE. LOOK AT THE WINTER PRECIPITATION INTO THE PANHANDLE. THERE’S A BIG, BIG ARCTIC CHILL MOVING OUR DIRECTION ABOUT THE SEVENTH, EIGHTH, NINTH, 10TH OR SO. THIS IS GOING TO BE OUR NEXT BIG WEATHER STORY THAT WE’LL BE TALKING ABOUT IN THE DAYS AND WEEKS TO COME. WE’LL BE WATCHIN
