Your
weekend may see a few minor showers in the Fort Walton Beach/Destin area, but
the temperatures are reported by www.weather.com to be in the upper 60s for the
high and mid 50s for the low, with a chance of rain on Friday and Sunday. Even though it
may be a wet weekend, the temperature will still be beautiful, so get outside
when it’s dry and have a blast whether it be at the park, beach, open-air
shopping mall, or just staying in your neighborhood and going for a relaxing
walk.
Have a beachy weekend!
Also, be sure to check out the new Margaritaville location on the Destin Harbor. The food, view and service are all spectacular!
