Temperatures in most of Central Florida will once again drop into the 40s later Wednesday as unusually cool temperatures continue in the area, according to Local 6 meteorologist Larry Mowry.
"The one thing that is very unusual about the temperatures this morning is that they are all the way in the 40s," Mowry said. "Average lows generally run in the 60s this time of year. Current temperatures are well below that."
Temperatures dropped down to 39 degrees in parts of Ocala Wednesday morning and a 47 degree reading was recorded in Orlando. The record in Orlando for Oct. 26 is 47 degrees.
"It is going to be chilly here for at least the next several days," Mowry said. "Today, it feels like a January day."
A general northern flow in Central Florida's air pattern will keep cooler weather in the area at least until the weekend. However, temperatures will begin to warm up by Saturday.
"Into the weekend, we are going to start to see a little bit of a warm up back to more normal temperatures."
The high in Orlando Wednesday is 68 degrees.
