November 22, 200619 yr Snow Reported In Central Florida POSTED: 4:19 pm EST November 21, 2006 UPDATED: 10:37 pm EST November 21, 2006 ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- Snow flurries were reported in Seminole, Orange, and Volusia Counties Tuesday night. We even saw some snow at Channel 9's Orlando studios. The last time it snowed in Central Florida was reportedly January 24, 2003. Before that, it hadn't snowed since 1989. A blast of cold air is moving into the state this week, state emergency officials said. Wind chills may drop into the 20s in parts of north Florida and high temperatures may only reach the 60s as far south as the Keys on Wednesday, state meteorologist Ben Nelson said. Miami wasn't expected to even hit 70 on Wednesday, and low temperatures were expected to dive into the mid-40s. A developing storm out at sea off of Florida's east coast is driving cold air southward into the state, which resulted in freeze watches for several locations in the Panhandle earlier this week. Nelson said wind chills could be in the 30s even in Central Florida on several nights this week and reminded Florida residents to protect themselves, their plants, their pets and their pipes. The cold weather is expected to last through Thanksgiving, but by the end of the week warmer temperatures were forecast to return. By Sunday, the high in Miami is expected to be 81.

November 22, 200619 yr I'm going to have to build an ark pretty soon if this rain keeps up... But snow flurries in Florida? wtf...some crazy weather
November 22, 200619 yr yea Savannah, GA got their first measurable snowfall before Hamden, CT sees a flurry...that upsets me! I WANT MY SNOW!
November 22, 200619 yr I wonder if it snowed in Tally now that I'm gone. And I love how it's not supposed to be a particularly cold winter, yet it's only November and the weather is absurd.
November 22, 200619 yr Last night was probably the worst weather weve had so far this year (High 30s, 15-20 MPH wind and it was pouring). No snow yet, though.
November 22, 200619 yr As long as I don't run into flurries driving into FSU this morning and then to Cape Coral from there, I'm happy. But I am ready just in case.... *gets ice pik ready*
November 22, 200619 yr That is absolutly badass, but fortunatly I finally escaped that cold for South Florida for the weekend. It was certainly damn cold in Gainesville yesterday.
November 22, 200619 yr As long as I don't run into flurries driving into FSU this morning and then to Cape Coral from there, I'm happy. But I am ready just in case.... *gets ice pik ready* :lol :lol careful of those flurries...they are known to throw cars off bridges
November 23, 200619 yr Wow, that's pretty cool. Why can't it snow in Miami? :| We've seen snow down this way, back in January 1977.
November 23, 200619 yr On January 19, 1977, Old Man Winter paid an unwelcomed visit to residents of Miami, Florida (yes, Florida, not Ohio) and brought along a surprise gift -- snow! For the first time in the history of the extreme south of Florida, snow danced through the air and dusted the ground briefly. A quarter century later, the scene has not been repeated. In my best Maurice Chevailer voice.... "I remember it well....."

November 24, 200619 yr hasnt snowed in massachusetts yet...its 50 and raining today...hey mr. bush...still believe there is no such thing as global warming? Do you even know anything about glogal warming and its effects? What's so outrageous about 50 degrees in November anyway? http://www.cityrating.com/citytemperature.asp?City=Boston
