We only had a total of six days and counting where high temperatures reached 70 degrees in central Florida this month. We'll add a few more to that total as we move through the last week of January.

Florida faces frosty conditions, as well as freezing temperatures that could lead to the issuance of HARD freeze warnings. Here's what the difference between all these wintry titles means, and how you can better prepare before it hits.
The coldest air of the season is still slated to nestle in across Central Florida, with a sudden rebound expected shortly thereafter. As we begin to return to a state of normalcy as far as temperature is concerned, this helps prime the atmosphere for another go at a winter storm.
Our approaching cold front has a thick band of heavy rain and storms along its leading edge, expected to drape across our viewing area by Sunday afternoon. Beyond that, temperatures will drop excessively with a below-freezing wind chill likely for our northern counties.
The Central Florida area has been highlighted for low-end severe thunderstorm and tornado potential with tomorrow's front. After that, we chill BIG TIME.
