Following Weekend Snow Flurries in Florida Another Round of Dangerously Cold Temps Awaits Entering the Workweek
WESH TWO NEWS. THAT IS SO WILD TO SEE. AND IF YOU’RE GOING TO BE HOME TONIGHT, YOU DEFINITELY WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU GIVE YOUR KIDS A LITTLE DRIP BECAUSE YOU DON’T WANT TO WAKE UP LIKE ME WITH FROZEN PIPES. TERRIBLE. GOT TO PROTECT THOSE PIPES. YOUR PETS, YOUR PLANTS, YOUR PEOPLE. CHECK ON EVERYBODY AND EVERYTHING, BECAUSE TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WILL BE NEARLY JUST AS COLD AS WE WERE LAST NIGHT. WHICH IS WHY WE DO HAVE SEVERE WARNING WEATHER. BUT TODAY, IN THE AFTERNOON, WE DID NOT MAKE IT BACK INTO THE 50S. PRETTY RARE FOR US HERE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA. IN FACT, SO RARE THAT WE SET RECORD COLD HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE AFTERNOON IN ORLANDO. SANFORD, LEESBURG, DAYTONA AND MELBOURNE ALL IN THE MID 40S TODAY. KEEP IN MIND OUR SEASONAL AVERAGE THAT USUALLY SITS ABOUT THE LOWER 70S. SO WE WERE LEAPS AND BOUNDS BELOW SEASONAL. TODAY IT WILL WAITING WAITING FOR THOSE TEMPERATURES TO PLUNGE. TONIGHT YOUR WIND CHILLS COULD BE AS LOW AS 14 TO 20 DEGREES. SO DANGEROUSLY COLD AIR WILL BE IN EFFECT HERE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA. I THINK THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LAST NIGHT AND TONIGHT IS GOING TO BE OUR WINDS JUST AREN’T AS GUSTY. LAST NIGHT WE STILL HAD WINDS HOWLING BETWEEN 30 AND 40MPH. NOW THEY’RE RIGHT AROUND 10 TO 20. EVEN THOUGH WE ARE STILL TRENDING COOL, YOU CAN STILL SEE THE CHOP ALONG THE WATER ACROSS NEW SMYRNA BEACH, WHERE TEMPERATURES SHOW 41 DEGREES LOWER 40S. ACROSS THE COAST, YOU’LL FIND A PAIR OF 30S INLAND FOR OCALA AND WILDWOOD. ONCE YOU SWITCH GEARS AND HEAD TOWARDS I-75 WINDS, AS I MENTIONED, A LITTLE BIT FASTER ACROSS THE I-4 CORRIDOR BETWEEN 10 AND 20MPH. STILL NOT AS BREEZY AS WE WERE LAST NIGHT, BUT THOSE WINDS ARE AFFECTING YOUR FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES. YOUR WIND CHILL ORLANDO DROPS YOU DOWN TO 36. IN OCALA, IT FEELS LIKE YOU’RE ALMOST AT THE FREEZING LEVEL IN THE SUN. STILL JUST HASN’T SET YET. IN DAYTONA BEACH, YOU’LL CRAWL ALL THE WAY DOWN INTO THE UPPER 20S OVERNIGHT. THE CLEAR SKIES THAT WE HAVE ALLOW FOR THE TEMPERATURES TO COOL EVEN FURTHER. WHEN YOU HAVE THAT BLANKET OF CLOUDS THAT KEEPS YOU A LITTLE BIT WARMER OVERNIGHT, RADIATIONAL COOLING WILL BE TAKING PLACE ACROSS DAYTONA BEACH OR EXCUSE ME, ACROSS VOLUSIA COUNTY. YOUR FREEZE DURATION COULD BE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 10 AND 13 HOURS. FOR DAYTONA BEACH SPECIFICALLY, YOU’LL DROP DOWN TO 27 DEGREES WITH A FREEZE DURATION, MEANING THAT YOU’LL BE UNDER 32 DEGREES FOR ANYWHERE BETWEEN 10 AND 13 HOURS THERE. COMING UP. EVEN IN MARION COUNTY, THAT FREEZE DURATION COULD BE EVEN LONGER AS TEMPERATURES PLUMMET BETWEEN 21. IN OCALA, 22 DEGREES. SO VERY CHILLY WEATHER IS ON THE WAY. YOUR MONDAY MORNING LOWS ARE BACK IN THE 20S, WIDESPREAD ACROSS CENTRAL FLORIDA, 29 INSIDE OF THE CITY. BEAUTIFUL WINTER HAVEN 27 DEGREES OCALA 22. THE VILLAGES 22 AS WELL. SO IT IS A VERY FRIGID WEEKEND FOR US HERE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA. AND YOUR FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES BY MIDNIGHT DROP DOWN TO 22. IN OCALA, 24 INSIDE ORLANDO. BUT NOTICE THESE NUMBERS COULD TUMBLE INTO THE TEENS OVERNIGHT. LAKE OCALA AT 17 DEGREES PALM COAST, DAYTONA BEACH, NEW SMYRNA, ALL IN THE TEENS. AS FAR AS THE WIND CHILL IS CONCERNED, WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE THAT. EXTREME COLD WEATHER WARNING IN PLACE. SEVERE WEATHER FOR US IS STILL AT SEVEN EIGHT AND 9:00 IS WHAT WE’RE WATCHING OUT FOR. UNTIL THOSE ADVISORIES DO LIFT A LOT OF SUNSHINE IN THE PICTURE TOMORROW AS TEMPERATURES ARE BACK BETWEEN THE 50S, SO WE ARE SLIGHTLY WARMER TOMORROW THAN THE TEMPERATURES WE SAW TODAY, AND WILL CARRY THAT SLOW WARMING TREND INTO THE MIDDLE OF YOUR WORKWEEK. BEFORE WE SEE A COLD FRONT COME IN WEDNESDAY NIGHT. HIGHS ON WEDNESDAY, THOUGH THOSE ARE BACK IN THE LOW 70S, SO A LOT FOR US TO LOOK FORWARD TO BOTH INLAND AND ACROSS THE COAST BEFORE RAIN SHOWERS THURSDAY AND THEN COOLER WEATHE
