ORLANDO, Fla. – Snow…really? It may sound hard to believe, but it’s looking more likely that parts of the Florida Panhandle could see snow early Sunday morning.
Snow timing
A strong Arctic cold front pushing through the state, combined with an area of low pressure, is creating the right setup for wintry weather near the Florida–Georgia line.
Sunday morning
Temperatures will be cold enough for snow, and places like Milton and Pensacola could see around 1–2 inches, with a few spots possibly picking up a little more.

This is happening right around the same time as last year’s historic snowstorm. On Jan. 21–22, 2025, a powerful winter system moved through the South and brought record-breaking snow to the western Panhandle. Pensacola measured 7.6 inches, while Milton saw an incredible 9–10 inches, the heaviest snowfall ever recorded in Florida.
While snow in Florida is rare, it has happened before. A light dusting fell across parts of North Florida in Jan. 2018, a notable storm reached areas like Ocala and The Villages in 1989, and an extreme cold wave in 1977 even brought snow to Tallahassee and parts of South Florida.
