. already tracking some fog this morning. yesterday we had the dense fog we had talked about through the weekend. zephyrhills 3/4 of a mile. mile in brooksville. unlike yesterday we do have cloud cover up above, and that should help the fog from becoming widespread. but that could still happen this morning. we're going to have watch very closely as far as visibility. our northern areas will be getting in on that. we'll see patchy fog this morning, and then it's going to be a mostly cloudy day. the reason for the fog, and we have a frontal boundary that's been kind of meandering across the area. it eventually today will get a nice push to the south.

overnight hours to clear out, and then we do cool off, and we're talking about plenty of sunshine for the rest of the week with very chilly temperatures. i'll show you the lows coming up tonight, especially across the north. temperatures right now in the 60s widespread, very mild, cloud cover, the boundaries still on top of us here and even a couple of sprinkles across the coast that won't amount to much. there you see the cloud cover continuing to spread in from the gulf up above the boundary here. so for the highs today with the cloud cover, this isn't the cool air yet. we're going to remain in the mid-70s and low 70s up to the north and down to the south. temperatures approaching 80 degrees and then we're done that. we're going to have highs cooling off as well. not dramatically so. let's fly in and show you the big cooldown as we head through tomorrow morning. it's not like we haven't seen temperatures like this.
