<P>WARM WEATHER RETURNS    
<P>The overall weather picture is looking great this week. Tonight will be mostly clear and it will be another chilly start to the day on Tuesday. I anticipate lows to drop well into the 40's inland and bottom out around 49 to 52 along the coast. No rain is on the radar tonight and there won't be any again tomorrow. Tuesday high temperatures will reach 78 degrees. And it looks like the 80's are coming back by Wednesday. 
<P>A cold front is expected to move across northern Florida over the next few days and stall out around that part of the state. This will keep southwest Florida on the warm side of the front and our daytime highs will top 80 beginning on Wednesday and lasting through this upcoming weekend. There could be some showers up in the panhandle and toward Jacksonville over the next few days, but down here I expect it to be a dry week. 
<P>As mentioned, the upcoming weekend should be warm and more nice weather is on the way. The long-range weather forecasts predict a cold front moving into Florida next week - probably Wednesday or Thursday.
