Will it get cooler in Florida soon? See what to expect this week and into weekend

Some relief may be in sight when it comes to the dangerous heat and humidity Florida residents have experienced lately. A "more typical thunderstorm pattern" is expected as a weak cold front approaches Florida Friday and Saturday, Aug. 1 and Aug. 2, according to the Florida Division of Emergency Management. ➤ Weather alerts via text: Sign up to get updates about current storms and weather events by location Widespread showers and thunderstorms are expected across North Florida Aug. 2, with scattered showers predicted for Central Florida and isolated showers for South Florida. Until then, though, dangerous heat and humidity are expected to continue through the middle of the week, with heat advisories and a heat index in the 100s and lower 110s. Don't expect Florida temperatures to drop dramatically. Highs are forecast to range from the upper 80s into the low to mid 90s by the end of the weekend, according to the National Weather Service. ➤ See when heat watches and warnings could be issued in your area Heat warnings, watches, advisories in effect across Florida Quick look at conditions around Florida Wednesday, July 30 Pensacola, western Panhandle: A heat advisory is in effect until 6 p.m. CT. Heat index could reach 109. Tallahassee, central Panhandle: Dangerous heat continues the next few days from late morning to early evening. Highs will range from 93 to 98, with feels-like temps between 105 to 111. Jacksonville, North, Northeast Florida: A heat advisory is in effect from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Heat indices will soar to 108 to 113 this afternoon. Daytona Beach to Stuart, central and eastern Florida: Hazardous levels of heat continue today, Wednesday, July 30. A heat advisory is in effect from noon to 7 p.m. today across all of Central Florida. Peak heat indices will top out between 108 and 112 degrees. South Florida: Warm weather continues today with highs in the lower 90s across the east coast metro, to mid and upper 90s over the interior and Southwest Florida. Scattered storms expected this afternoon into early evening. Southwest, western Florida: Another day today with the dangerously high heat index values for West Central Florida. A heat advisory is in effect from noon to 7 p.m. How long will Florida heat last? When will it get cooler? Higher-than-average temperatures are "going to last for a good part of the work week," said Matt Volkmer, meteorologist with the National Weather Service Melbourne in a phone interview Tuesday morning. "It's going to be pretty hot this week and we expect more heat advisories, especially for the interior." There may be some relief in sight for the weekend or early next week. Note the word "some." Models are showing temperatures could drop closer to average due to the cooling effects of storms and cloud cover, Volkmer said. Florida's west coast should start seeing temps dip today, July 30, into the mid to low 90s instead of the upper 90s, with a heat index of Florida normal, about 105," Stephen Shiveley, meteorologist with the National Weather Service Tampa Bay said in a telephone interview Tuesday morning. By Sunday or Monday, "we may finally get closer to average, with a chance for rain, although the chances for rain on the west coast" are lower than along the east coast and Central Florida, Shiveley said. Heat advisory issued for 58 Florida counties A heat advisory is in effect for the following counties Wednesday, July 30: Alachua Baker Bay Bradford Brevard Calhoun Citrus Clay Columbia DeSoto Dixie Duval Escambia Flagler Franklin Gadsden Gilchrist Gulf Hamilton Hardee Hernando Highlands Hillsborough Holmes Indian River County Jackson Jefferson Lafayette Lake Leon Levy Liberty Madison Manatee Marion Martin Nassau Okaloosa Okeechobee Orange Osceola Pasco Pinellas Polk Putnam St. Johns St. Lucie Santa Rosa Sarasota Seminole Sumter Suwannee Taylor Union Volusia Wakulla Walton Washington What is a heat advisory? A heat advisory is issued for dangerous heat conditions that are not expected to reach warning criteria, according to the National Weather Service. When a heat advisory is issued also depends on where you are in Florida. For most of the state, a heat advisory is issued if the heat index is expected to be between 108 to 112 degrees. Here is the breakdown by each NWS region. A heat advisory is issued when the heat index is expected to be: Western Panhandle: 108-112 degrees Central Panhandle, North Florida: 108 to 112 within the next 6 to 24 hours or air temperature is forecast to reach 103 degrees Northeast Florida: 108-112 degrees East Central Florida: 108 to 112 degrees In South Florida: 108 degrees in South Florida or 105 degrees for Miami/Dade and Broward counties Southwest, West Central Florida: 108-112 or the air temp is greater or equal to 103 degrees The National Weather Service Miami said Miami/Dade County wanted a lower threshold for a heat advisory for its population. What should you do when there is a heat advisory? "Residents are advised to consider postponing or rescheduling outdoor activities, especially during the heat of the day," the National Weather Service said. "If you must be outside, be sure to drink plenty of water and take frequent breaks in the shade. Stay in a cool place, especially during the heat of the day and evening."

Japan braces for more heat after hottest July on record

People in Japanexperienced their hottest July on record this year, with officials warning of "severe heat" to hit northern and western regions of the country in August. Average temperature in July was 2.89 degree Celsius higher than the 1991-2020 average for the same month, the nation's Meteorological agency said on Friday. On July 30, Japan experienced its highest recorded temperature — 41.2C in the western region of Hyogo. Early end to rainy season For three years in a row, July has brought record-breaking heat to Japan, with the average monthly temperature reaching new heights in 2023, 2024, and now in 2025. This July is the warmest since the Japan Meteorological Agency began recording data in 1898. The amount of rainfall to hit Japan's northern and western regions in July was lower than average. Moreover, the rainy season ended three weeks earlier than usual in western Japan, creating another unwanted record. Heat affecting cherry blossoms On Friday, the agency predicted more rainy and cloudy days in the first half of August, but said more sunny days are expected later this month, "Please pay attention to temperature forecasts and heatstroke warning alerts, and take appropriate measures to prevent heatstroke. In areas with less precipitation, please be careful to manage your water," the agency's press release warned. The average temperature for the June to August quarter is "likely to require the record, too," Yoshinori Oikawa, head of the weather agency's Center for Information on Climate Extremes said, as reported by Japan Times. Experts have warned that Japan's famous cherry trees are bloomer earlier than usual or not blooming completely due to this shift in weather. The winters are not long or cold enough to trigger flowering. Edited by: Darko Janjevic
