(WSVN) &#8211; A chill in the air spread across South Florida as <a href=\"https:\/\/wsvn.com\/news\/us-world\/frozen-iguanas-fall-from-trees-in-florida-as-record-cold-arrives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">a cold front descended on the Sunshine State<\/a>, sending temperatures tumbling into the upper 40s and low 50s on Veterans Day.<\/p>\n<p>The coldest air felt in the region this season did not stop people from going out on their morning walks along Fort Lauderdale Beach. Some people were even wearing shorts.<\/p>\n<p>A man riding his bicycle told 7News he was startled by the the abrupt change in temperatures, which were as high as the 80s on Monday and hit 87 on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m absolutely freezing. It\u2019s 47 degrees; this is crazy but enjoyable,\u201d he said. \u201cYeah, I bike every morning, but this is definitely a new extreme, but I gotta keep up the routine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As late as 7 a.m. on Tuesday, parts of Broward County did not crack 50 degrees Fahrenheit. As of 8 a.m., Coral Springs and Weston reported 47 degrees, Davie and Hollywood reported 48, and Lauderdale-By-The-Sea, Pembroke Pines and Pompano Beach reported 49 degrees.<\/p>\n<p>South of the county line, Coconut Grove, Doral, Miami Shores, North Miami and South Miami reported 49 degrees, but most of Miami-Dade remains in the low 50s, with 50 degrees reported in the City of Miami, Miami Beach, Miami Lakes, Opa-locka and Sunny Isles Beach.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the Florida Keys stayed in the mid to high 50s.<\/p>\n<p>Almost everyone who spoke to 7News on Fort Lauderdale Beach said they\u2019re enjoying the change of weather.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s nice, for a difference. Yeah, I\u2019m enjoying it,\u201d said a woman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a beautiful change. You only get so many days [like this] a year, so we\u2019re Floridian, wear the shorts,\u201d said a man wearing a Chicago baseball cap, a light gray hoodie and light gray short shorts. \u201cWe\u2019re warm up top, cold on the bottom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, no, it\u2019s great. It\u2019s definitely a big change from the 95 degrees and 100% humidity, so I\u2019m definitely going to enjoy it,\u201d said a man.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we get five more days of this, I wouldn\u2019t complain,\u201d said a woman.<\/p>\n<p>The cold blast kept many people off the beach \u2026 except one man seen jumping in the water in swim trunks.<\/p>\n<p>For four women visting from Baltimore, Maryland, it\u2019s the perfect weather to enjoy a workout by the sea.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt always makes me rethink, like, my life, like, \u2018Should I really be living in Baltimore, or do I need to just move to the beach?&#8217;\u201d said one of the visitors.<\/p>\n<p>Windy conditions are making the temperatures chillier than they are, as low as the lower 40s in Broward, with gusts reported between 25 and 35 miles per hour.<\/p>\n<p>But the visitor from Maryland who spoke with 7News had some choice words for South Florida residents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know nothing of cold, nothing. This is, at 7 o\u2019clock in the morning, this is what we experience at noon,\u201d she said. \u201cBe grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Most of South Florida won\u2019t rise above the mid 60s into Tuesday evening. People are advised to dress in layers when going out all day Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>South Florida is expected to get back into the 80s by this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2025 Sunbeam Television Corp.
