January 6, 2010 - Floridians woke up to another morning of well below normal cold weather here in South Florida. Temperatures hovered around 30°F for several hours this morning, with wind chill reading in the lower 20’s over interior counties. This arctic intrusion into tropical Southern Florida, is expected to continue into the weekend, with yet another surge of very cold temperatures. Also, another night tonight of freezing weather is in store for Florida with temps about the same, or even possibly a little colder if the winds can go light. In the following short video segment, you’ll see the frost covered windshields, car’s, house rooftops and lawns from this morning at sunrise.

Northern Florida is really seeing some sub-freezing temperatures as well over long durations the last few nights. Here is a pool in Pensacola, FL with a layer of ice on the surface, with a coffee mug locked into place from the ice. Thanks to Twitter follower @PADRE2425 for sharing this photo with us. Northern Florida and the Panhandle region will continue to see very cold weather conditions again tonight with temps falling into the lower 20’s again. It definitely has been impressive seeing all the records being broken, and recorded low high during the days, and lows at night. Look for this to continue.

Florida crops are also being greatly affected by all this cold air, and there likely has been damage to some varieties of vegetations, including oranges, sugarcane, tropical plants, palm tree’s, and sod fields. Local interior farms still have several nights of threatening weather to contend with, and more possible for next week as well for South and Central Florida locations. So, the start of January 2010 is turning out to be one heck of a cold beginning to the new year for Floridians and retirees down from up north for the Winter season. Stay warm folks!!

    I bet they might see some very light sleet and snow flurries right now if they head outside. Many reports coming in at this time with mix precip around Central Florida.
