Day 8 of Tallahassee, FL (KTLH)

Clearing skies and cold advection led to a low of 57F last night, though it will likely get lower than that by 06z tonight. Almost full sunshine led to a high of 77F, well above most models, along with a maximum wind of 19 kt. Tonight, winds will drop off just enough for somewhat better radiational cooling later in the night, but will not drop off completely. Therefore, some temperature dips are expected, but it isn’t expected to get as far below model guidance as late last week, with USL still looking reasonable. Full sunshine will lead to warmer than modeled temperatures again tomorrow, with less wind as surface high pressure dominates. Still, given the strong mixing and boundary layer turbulence created by the strong sunshine, “random” spikes of ~10 kt are possible, especially early in the day, when the northerly winds aloft are still present.
