Daytona, FL has a history of warm weather and this comes as quite a shock to the area residents.
"There will be clouds that are similar to the clouds that are generated in the Great Lakes states when we have lake-effect snow," Local 6 meteorologist Larry Mowry said. "I'm going to call for the possibility of snow flurries early Thursday morning near the coastline."The local-folk are stocking up for the duration and there is apparently no relief in sight.
"Mowry said residents in Daytona Beach, Titusville, Palm Bay and Melbourne may see the snow flurries Thursday."The people of Ocala, FL are battening down the hatches and just may have to close the interstate.
The hard freeze warning was issued for areas north of Interstate 4 and counties located south of I-4 were under a general freeze warning.Never before have these Floridians been so viciously attacked.
Temperatures were expected to drop to 19 degrees in parts of Ocala early Thursday.
"There is really a bite in the air," Mowry said. "With those strong winds out of the northwest, we are not going to warm up a lot Wednesday."More news at 10, if the area survives the storm.
Al Gore was unavailable for comment.
That is all.
Update...
Many of the freeze warnings will begin at 1 a.m. Thursday and end at 9 a.m.Brace yourselves and render assistance when asked.
Thank you and good luck.
