Florida getting hit with record cold

there will be some cold seminoles on campus next week, my old stomping grounds.

KTAE,

Long term...(saturday through wednesday).

In what has already been a very cold start to the month of

December...the extended portion of the forecast unfortunately looks to

be more of the same. After a brief warmup on Friday and Saturday

(and this warmup will likely only take US to back to near

climatological temperatures for this time of year)...yet another

strong cold front appears poised to charge through the region on

Saturday night and Sunday morning...preceded by a line of showers

and thunderstorms. At this time...no strong to severe thunderstorms

are expected due to the lack of low level instability and limited

return flow moisture...but will need to an eye on this system due to

the strong dynamics it will likely possess. Once this cold front

passes to the south of the region on Sunday...it is now appearing

more and more likely that the coldest air of the season will rush

into the County Warning Area for the beginning of next week...as an extremely cold

air mass of Canadian high pressure builds in to our north. Although

it is still several days away... high temperatures on Monday may not

climb any higher than the upper 30s to lower 40s...which will then

set the stage for a long duration hard freeze event for Monday night

and Tuesday morning...with lows in the middle to upper teens very

possible away from the coast. All agricultural interests are urged

to keep abreast of the latest forecasts from the National Weather

Service on this next cold outbreak.

there is a thread on this in the southeast forum:

http://www.americanwx.com/bb/index.php?/topic/190-florida-fallwinter-weather/

if you want me to merge it let me know, but i'll close for now as this is a regional topic.

i changed the thread title from "winter thread " which did sound regional to record cold. this will, and already has been major national news

Brrrrrr! :snowman:

EXPECT A VERY COLD AND WINDY START TO

THE PERIOD. DEPENDING ON HOW FAST THE FRONTAL SYSTEM CLEARS OFF TO

THE EAST ON MONDAY AND A HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM DROPPING OUT OF CANADA

MOVES INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...SURFACE WINDS ON MONDAY

COULD STILL BE IN THE 15 TO 20 MPH RANGE WITH HIGHER GUSTS. THERE IS

THE POSSIBILITY A WIND CHILL ADVISORY (<15 DEG F) MONDAY MORNING. IN

A WORD...BLUSTERY. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL STRUGGLE TO ONLY MAKE IT

INTO THE LOW TO MID 40S.

WITH THE HIGH PRESSURE AREA LIKELY TO REMAIN JUST OFF TO THE

NORTHWEST...ENOUGH OF A LIGHT BREEZE WILL OCCUR OVERNIGHT TO PREVENT

TEMPERATURES FROM BOTTOMING OUT IN THE TEENS. NEVERTHELESS...EVEN

WITH LIGHT WINDS...THIS INCOMING AIRMASS IS AS COLD AS THE RECENT

ARCTIC OUTBREAK WE EXPERIENCED...SO EXPECT A HARD FREEZE MONDAY

NIGHT WITH MANY LOCATIONS APPROACHING THE LOW 20S. IF THERE`S STILL

ANY WIND AT ALL...WIND CHILL ADVISORIES MAY ALSO BE NEEDED.

Lol, I think I'm gonna go to the beach on Tuesday

Monday Night         Clear. Very cold. Lows in the mid 20s. Northwest winds 10 to 15 mph. Lowest wind chill readings 11 to 14 after midnight.

I wonder if you guys will get that frozen stuff sticking to the sand when the tide goes out.  I remember seeing that in NC

NWS MLB AFD snip...

MON NIGHT...COLDEST TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA MONDAY

NIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING. STRONG CAA WILL CONTINUE INTO THE

OVERNIGHT HOURS AND LATEST MOS GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SUPPORT MINIMUM

TEMPERATURES INTO THE MID 20S OVER MUCH OF THE AREA. HOWEVER EVEN

COLDER TEMPS IN THE LOW 20S LOOK TO OCCUR NW OF THE I-4 CORRIDOR AND

OVER OKEECHOBEE COUNTY WHERE WINDS LOOK TO BE LIGHTER ALLOWING FOR

MORE RADIATIONAL COOLING. TOWARD THE ST. LUCIE AND MARTIN COUNTY

COAST MIN TEMPS WILL RANGE FROM UPPER 20S TO NEAR 30. HOWEVER

FARTHER INLAND HARD FREEZE CONDS MAY BE POSSIBLE SO HAVE THEREFORE

REPLACED THE FREEZE WATCH WITH A HARD FREEZE WATCH IN THESE

COUNTIES. ELSEWHERE THE HARD FREEZE WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT AND WILL

LIKELY BE UPGRADED TO A WARNING BY EARLY MONDAY MORNING.

TUES/TUES NIGHT...TEMPS WILL RISE ABOVE FREEZING WITHIN A COUPLE

HOURS AFTER SUNRISE BUT WILL REMAIN WELL BELOW NORMAL INTO THE

AFTERNOON WITH HIGHS ONLY ABLE TO REACH INTO THE 50S ACROSS MOST OF

THE AREA. NW WINDS WILL NOT BE AS STRONG ACROSS THE AREA AS ON

MONDAY BUT WILL STILL RANGE UP TO AROUND 10 TO 15 MPH.

WITH LIGHTER WINDS TUES NIGHT AND CLEAR SKIES EXPECTED...ANOTHER

NIGHT OF FREEZING TEMPS IS LIKELY ACROSS THE AREA WITH MIN TEMPS

OVER SOME INTERIOR AREAS POTENTIALLY REACHING THE MID 20S ONCE

AGAIN. HOWEVER TEMPS OVER MOST OF THE AREA LOOK TO ONLY FALL AS FAR

AS THE UPPER 20S TO LOW 30S. WILL HOLD OFF ON A FREEZE WATCH FOR

NOW...BUT WILL LIKELY NEED ONE OVER MOST IF NOT ALL OF EAST CENTRAL

FLORIDA.
