WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A cold front pushing south through the area will usher in much cooler temps for MLK Day on Monday. Wake-up temps start in the upper 50s near the coast around 50 degrees far inland.

Unfortunately, we are not expecting a lot of sunshine this week. Clouds linger through Monday with medium rain chances as the front stalls out south of Florida. The highest chance of rain will be in Palm Beach County with decreasing chances the further north you are. It will be much cooler than this weekend as highs struggle to make it out of the mid to upper 60s.

Temperatures try to improve Tuesday, heading into the lower 70s, but more rain is anticipated as low pressure lingers just to our south.

Towards the middle of the week, a polar air mass is expected to reach as far south as Florida. The cold air is expected to get wrapped up with an area of low pressure in the Gulf. This could allow snow or a wintry mix to reach portions of the panhandle with cold weather extending across most of the state.

With this setup, there is a good chance that we will see widespread 40s with portions of the Treasure Coast and Okeechobee possibly dipping into the 30s towards the end of the work week and into early next weekend. BRRR!
