Special Weather Statement issued January 26 at 3:36PM EST by NWS Miami FL

An Arctic cold front is forecast to move through South Florida early next weekend bringing the potential for the coldest air the region has experienced since January 2010. This cold blast could last into the early portion of next week. While the exact details remain uncertain at this time, there is the potential for lows to drop down into the 30s across a good portion of the region and even into the 20s west of Lake Okeechobee. When the wind is factored in, the wind chill values have the potential to be colder than the actual low temperatures during this time frame. Residents and visitors to South Florida should continue to monitor the latest forecast from NWS Miami throughout the week on the possible cold to frigid temperatures.
