đĄď¸Decemberâs temperature roller coaster continues đ˘
Hey insiders, itâs Chief Meteorologist Candace Campos here with more on the temperature roller coaster weâve been on for the last few weeks! Are you a fan of the cold or would you rather have a warm December? I personally love the break from the heat and humidity.
But while we are expecting to warm up into the weekend, conditions will remain comfortable at least! Click here to read more on what we can expect as we get closer to Christmas!
Speaking of Christmas, the countdown is on as we are less than two weeks away!

Florida wonât see snow, but the north could get feet of it this week âď¸
A storm system is currently sweeping across the eastern U.S. and is expected to bring an arctic blast and 10 to 20 inches of snow to areas south and east of the Great Lakes, with strong winds causing near-whiteout conditions.
Cold air from Canada and moisture from the lakes will fuel heavy snowfall along the eastern and southern shores of the Great Lakes from Wednesday through Friday.
While Florida wonât see snow, weâre still feeling the cold, though thankfully no freezing temperaturesâyet.

đThe king Of meteor showers peaks this weekendđ
The best annually-occurring meteor shower of the year, the Geminids, peaks this weekend. Whatâs going on, guys? Meteorologist Jonathan Kegges back with you. I love this shower so much not only because of the number of meteors that will be seen but because of the color they make in the sky.
This shower is generated by asteroid debris rather than from a comet like many of the other notable meteor showers.
As a result, the elements are different. Much like how fireworks get their color, when these elements burn up in the earthâs atmosphere they emit different colors based on the element.
This yearâs show will be suppressed because of the moonlight, but itâs still worth a watch for the brighter meteors. For more on how to see click here.
