Weekend Weather – Blue Skies, Warm Weather, Cool Nights

Weather wise – Panama city Beach has outdone itself- if you’re hearing about a tropical depression bringing bad weather to Florida – the other Florida – here on the Panhandle we could not ask for better weather to usher in October! Cool and dry; you can even pack that tissue weight longsleeved tee you’ve been wanting to wear – or just bring a cute sleevless top to put with some black jeans and high boots!  This weekend’s weather will be perfect for Thunder Beach.

What to expect, wear and do this weekend.

Shorts and bathing suits during the day for guys and girls of course – DO bring a hat- it’s going to be so nice you will not realize you are getting burned – there may not be a cloud in the sky, although we may see pieces off the tropical stuff to our south.

You may actually be comfortable in your leathers at night, especially on the beachfront.  Great hair weekend for beach portraits, folks!
