dry air. high above in the atmosphere. so big reason why we have the pure blue skies here today. current temp we have the north wind here at 5 miles per hour. again a very nice evening but obviously with the temperatures that cool and the sun is still up we're going to expect a very chilly night. as a result the national weather service which did have this freeze warning in place for leavy county, marion county points north did include some counties in the coastal area. inland areas away from the coast that's where you have to look for the possible freezing temperatures during that time. coldest air of the season here the coldest night here this season is 47 degrees. forecasting 42 tonight. this would be the coldest air of the season.
