Fort Myers is set for a sharp turn toward cooler weather: Friday's high is near 77, but Saturday is forecast to top out near 67. The temperature contrast sets up a chilly night before warmer afternoons return early next week.
Saturday Brings the Sharpest Chill
A slight chance of showers could linger Friday, though skies should become mostly sunny. North-northwest winds are expected at 6 to 10 mph.
Friday night should be mostly clear, with temperatures falling to around 54 degrees. Saturday is forecast to be sunny, with a north wind around 10 mph; temperatures could drop to the low to mid-40s Saturday night.
Milder Afternoons Return Sunday and Monday
Sunday is expected to bring sunshine and a high near 70, followed by a mostly sunny Monday near 79, according to the earlier Hoodline forecast.
A more severe Lee County cold snap
A separate cold snap on Feb. 1, 2026—not in November—brought a 34-degree reading and a record-low maximum temperature of 51 degrees, according to The News-Press. That February event was more severe than the temperatures forecast for this weekend; it offers a recent comparison but does not document a November cold outbreak.
The forecast calls for the coolest conditions Saturday night, followed by a sunny warmup Sunday and Monday.
