Florida State Watch Office Morning Situation Report for Wednesday, April 23rd, 2025

• Dense Fog conditions across the western Panhandle will gradually lift and dissipate throughout the morning hours.
• A stalled front to the north will help increase rain chances slightly along and north of the I-10 corridor this afternoon, especially with the help of the sea breeze moving inland across the Suwannee Valley and Northeast Florida (10-25% chance of rain).

• High temperatures will reach the 80s and lower 90s this afternoon, with portions of interior Central Florida approaching the middle 90s.
