Columbus, Georgia to Gainesville, Florida
Posted by Ryan
It's a little shorty with this shift, that will take less than 5 hours. We're headed south into Florida, a trip that will cover 279 miles. If you do the math, that means a slow pace of 59.4mph. Let's go ahead and inch our way to Florida.
Not only will the drive be brief, it will be remarkably easy. There could be a few lingering clouds over southern Georgia, but really nothing that should hinder our drive. Things will simply clear out, probably by the time we reach Albany, Georgia. Sunny and seasonably cool conditions await us in Gainesville.

Today we will go to north central Florida. Boy, that sounds nice right about now.
At 1213PM, ET. Gainesville was reporting light showers and a temperature of 53 degrees. A weak band of light rain was running from Jacksonville down towards Gainesville behind a cold front that had pushed deeper into the Peninsula. The upper level low generating this system was wrapped up in itself, sending multiple waves into Florida behind the cold front.
The system is still part of the larger flow and will continue to move northeast towards New England, where it is already providing rain and thunderstorms to the Mid Atlantic. The jet will broaden over the southeast, providing a healthy barrier between any Springtime systems and the Florida Peninsula by midweek. Expect a warming trend with clear and sunny skies for Gainesville for the next couple of days.

And the satellite (because the rain was too light to be a really informative radar still) shows the position of that low.
