WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A cold front will bring us much drier, slightly cooler, and windy conditions for Tuesday.

Wake-up temps could drop as low as the upper 50s for far inland locations -mid-60s for the Treasure Coast - and low 70s for the Palm Beach county coast. But the bigger story is the wind: breezy to gusty northeast winds will stick around through Wednesday, keeping things feeling cooler than usual for this time of year.

Multiple beach and boating hazards are in place. Expect rough surf, strong longshore currents, and a high risk of dangerous rip currents along all Florida Atlantic beaches. Small craft and high surf advisories are in effect through at least midweek.

There is a red flag warning for Okeechobee county from 11AM until 8PM Tuesday as relative humidity could drop below 35% along with gusty NE winds.

Looking ahead, the weather settles into a drier pattern with fewer rain chances, gradual warming by the weekend, and lighter winds returning by Friday—just in time for a more typical Florida spring feel.
