Unseasonably Cool Temperatures Embrace South Florida

The residents of South Florida awoke to a notable drop in temperature on Friday morning, as the chilly night air brought about levels not seen since early February. Thermometers recorded temperatures in the 50s, marking a significant shift from the usual warmth associated with the region.

The National Weather Service in Miami noted the cooler start to the day in a social media post, stating, «4 AM: A look at the latest temps this morning! Coolest we’ve seen since FEBRUARY! You may need that extra layer this morning.» As daylight progresses, highs were predicted to rise modestly into the upper 60s and low 70s by the afternoon.

As humidity levels have significantly decreased, an increase in sunshine has been observed, which is contributing to the relatively cooler temperatures. The expected highs on Friday are anticipated to remain in the low to mid-70s, nearly ten degrees below the typical average for this time of year.

The cool spell is projected to persist over the weekend, with similar morning temperatures expected on Saturday. A gradual warming trend is likely to commence on Sunday, with daytime temperatures reaching the 70s. However, forecasts suggest that typical warmer conditions, including temperatures in the 80s, are expected to return by next week.

Local citizens are advised to prepare for the striking change in weather, with some needing to adapt their routines accordingly as the region temporarily steps away from its usual tropical climate.
