Pensacola, Florida
The Florida Panhandle, a destination for college students this time of year, ready for Spring Break. I wish I got a Spring Break, you know what I mean?
At 1253PM, ET, Pensacola was reporting a temperature of 68 degrees with overcast skies. A system moving through Canada was generating a return flow through the Panhandle. While there was no cold air arriving in Florida, moisture was being streamed northeast, increasing humidity and invariably leading to the clouds the city was seeing.
The amount of moisture in the area is going to lead to some convergence showers across the southeast tonight, but without much forcing tomorrow, expect a more stagnant, hazy pattern tomorrow. An additional area of low pressure is going to develop in the northern Plains and move to the Great Lakes. Like the system in the north today, this system will draw moisture northeast through Pensacola, however right now, models are projecting a bit more cold air dragged south, which would touch off thunderstorm development late in the day Friday. Indications are that there will be enough cold air to drop the temperature to reach a non standard minimum Friday night behind the thunderstorms.

TWC and Weatherbug pay dearly for not having their hourly forecasts go out far enough. Here is a look at the satellite, which gives you a pretty good idea of how cloudy it is across the east today. Probably some rain in a lot of places this afternoon.
