Florida’s been acting all crazy lately!
Hey, Insiders. It’s Chief Meteorologist Candace Campos here running low on winter wear!
I don’t know about you, but enough is enough. We need our 70s and sunshine back ASAP. And for those who agree, we are going to have to wait a few more days as even COLDER nights are ahead!

🌨️Faux Snow Show❄️💧
With all this drizzly cold weather lingering for the past few days, some Central Floridians are posting about “snow flurries” falling!
Hate to burst your snow bubble... but it’s still a little too warm for snow.

Welcome back to your Pinpoint newsletter everyone! Digital Meteorologist David Nazario here, and SHEESH has it been a wild week.
From severe weather to start our Sunday, to heavy snow and blizzard conditions to our north as we rocked through Tuesday and Wednesday. Now it’s flat-out COLD!
But, on a lighter note, we did receive some very beneficial rainfall! In fact, some areas caught over 2-3 inches, which is great news, and then some considering the La Niña winter pattern we’re currently beneath.
Our winner for most accumulated rainfall goes to Kissimmee, in northwest Osceola County where we received a whopping 3.5 inches of rainfall since the winter storm event began and concluded.
Now the question is, will drought conditions begin to build back in across Central Florida? Or is there another wintry system on its way that could help us build upon the numbers we’ve already recorded?
Time will tell; I’m currently pinpointing another potential feature to help us close out the month of January.
Stay tuned for updates on that, and in the meantime feel free to check out my article HERE where you can find a breakdown of the rain totals, we collected over the course of our winter event.
Let it SNOW ❄️
Hey everyone, it’s Meteorologist Michelle Morgan here talking about — SNOW! ❄️
A once-in-a-lifetime snowstorm hit New Orleans and the Gulf Coast, leaving behind some seriously historic snowfall and breaking records that have stood for over 100 years.
New Orleans got up to 9.5 inches of snow, making it the second-highest snowfall ever recorded there, just shy of the 10 inches from February 14-15, 1895. And it wasn’t just New Orleans — other Gulf Coast cities saw snow totals like never before.
Florida’s Milton, just north of Pensacola, recorded a whopping 9.8 inches of snow — shattering the state’s previous record of 4.4 inches from 1954.

Christine’s Blankets: Bringing warmth and care to Florida’s cold
Hi everyone, it’s Meteorologist Julie Broughton!
This week, temperatures in Central Florida have been colder and lasting longer than usual. While many of us are using the heat to stay warm, those living on the streets have little protection from the cold.
This week’s Getting Results Award Winners are working hard to help everyone stay warm.
Under a gray sky, Michelle and Stan Arel get ready for another day of service, unloading their van in a church parking lot.
“It’s been so cold for so long here in Florida. This weather is crazy,” Michelle says.
