Are we about to shift from “Florida winter” to actual winter? ❄️
Hi, it’s Meteorologist David Nazario. Next week, we could see the tables turn as winter’s true arrival finally starts to show itself.
Now, don’t worry — we’re not talking about a plunge into freezing or subfreezing temperatures right away with this next push of polar air. But that’s actually part of the story. Because it’s not an extreme blast, it may have a better chance of sticking around a little longer.
I like to think of it in car terms: a high-horsepower race car can blaze around the track, but only for so long before something overheats or breaks and it has to pull into the pits. A lower-horsepower, well-tuned setup, though, can keep circling that same track much longer because it’s built to be steady and durable.
That’s the kind of pattern we may be heading into — not the flashiest cold, but one that could hang around. Click here to read more.
