A system of moisture moving into Central Florida produced snow flurries in several counties Tuesday night, the National Weather Service told Local 6 meteorologist Tom Sorrells.

"This is a weird one tonight," Sorrells said. "The big story in the weather department is not just the cold, not just the big problems with the wind but the snow flakes flying out of this moisture. Some of that light blue (on the map) had some snow flakes mixed in with it. The National Weather Service confirmed it."

Snow showers were reported in Orange, Seminole and Volusia counties Tuesday night.

"It did not last for a long time but we were getting calls for a pretty good clip tonight," Sorrells said. "Keep in mind, this (snow) is not going to last and it is all tied to a big low."

Sorrells said the unusual set up allowed for snow to fall in the region.

"We have cold, moist air aloft, drier air at the surface and as the rain comes down a thing called evaporative cooling is going on," Sorrells said. "When you step out of the shower in the morning and reach for that towel, your house is not that cold, it is just the water droplets evaporating off your body and taking away the heat. The same thing happened in the atmosphere. This snow will not last long."

A wind chill advisory remained in effect for most of Central Florida until Wednesday morning at 9 a.m.

"The combination of overnight temperatures dropping down to the lower 40s and upper 30s and 10 to 15 mph winds will produce wind chills in the middle 30s from around midnight to mid-morning Wednesday,'' the weather service said in a statement.

Temperatures are expected to warm by Thursday.
