Heatwave Ends with Coastal Caution | Panama City Beach News

Brace for a brutal heatwave hitting Florida with heat index values soaring to 100-108 degrees—feeling like a sauna even as humidity dips slightly. Overnight lows stay in the 70s, offering no real relief. Tuesday and Wednesday bring slightly cooler highs (low to mid-90s) and drier air thanks to a high-pressure system pushing moisture toward the Gulf. Winds shift northeast to east Tuesday, bringing a “backdoor cold front” effect and breezy conditions through Thursday. By Thursday, an upper-level disturbance will push out the high pressure, returning southerly winds and moisture—leading to a humid weekend with highs in the 80s to low 90s and storm chances. Coastal areas: wind speeds over water jump to 20 knots Tuesday night, triggering Small Craft Advisories and high rip current risk—beachgoers, watch your step.
