Despite snow flurries in parts of Florida, webcams show people at the beach ... in January
A little floored at how cold it is in Florida? After a very hot summer and mild temps in the fall, we're finally feeling the chill.
On Tuesday, a Jay, Florida, resident captured an unusual sight: Snow! A rare, wintry mix fell to the ground in parts of the Panhandle, thanks to a strong cold front.
According to the state's division of emergency management, the coldest temperatures of the winter season have arrived across North and Central Florida, with temperatures 10- to 15 degrees below normal for this time of year. The Sunshine State is projected to have well-below freezing temperatures overnight across the Panhandle and near-freezing across Northeast Florida, a notice on floridadisaster.org states. Expect patchy frost and areas of patchy fog early Thursday, Jan. 18.
The weather forecast also included a moderate- to high risk for rip currents along Panhandle and East Coast beaches.
