MIAMI – Temperatures dropped even lower overnight, with lows in the 40s, which is the coldest air the Miami area has felt since January 2023.
Layer up and be ready for the chill. You will keep those layers on as highs only reach the upper 60s Thursday.
The big dip in degrees comes with the passage of a strong cold front linked to a low-pressure system that brought six to 12 inches of snow from parts of the mid-Mississippi and Ohio valleys into the mid-Atlantic region of the United States Monday into early Tuesday. Washington D.C.’s Reagan National Airport measured 7.2 inches.
A sense of normalcy returns to South Florida Friday afternoon when east-to-southeast winds take hold. What starts as a chilly morning will be transformed to a more seasonable day as temperatures are expected to peak in the mid-70s.
However, do not ditch the chilly weather gear. Another cold front could start its journey across the Sunshine State as soon as Saturday.
