.DISCUSSION...

Current-Tonight...Cold front pushing into the southern peninsula 
this morning with high pressure poised to build slowly into the area 
behind it. WNW/NW winds behind the boundary will be breezy/gusty 
today. These winds are forecast to remain elevated this evening and 
overnight around 10 mph. Will monitor low clouds northward this 
morning/early afternoon as they may not erode as quickly as once 
thought. A reinforcing cold front will reach the northern coverage 
warning area by around sunrise Wednesday. 

Afternoon highs will range from the M-U60s north of I 4 with L-M70s 
southward. Mins tonight generally in the 40s under clear skies. Due 
to the steady WNW-NW wind, lowest wind chill readings (near sunrise 
Wed morning) will fall into the M30s north of I 4 with U30s/L40s 
southward across the remainder of ECFL making for a cool night.
