No Foolin’ Florida, Sun, Clouds And Showers Today (Video)

Thursday is April Fool’s Day, but the cold front on the way is no joke.  Our day features a mix of sun, clouds, periods of showers, and maybe a storm as the front moves in.  Look for a brisk and gusty breeze along the Gulf coast, with winds picking up in the east coast metro area during the late afternoon and evening.  A moderate risk of dangerous rip currents is in place at the Atlantic beaches.  Highs on Thursday will be in the mid-80s in the east coast metro area and the low 80s along the Gulf coast.
