Snow? It’s In The Forecast

February 10, 2010

(Updated 12:30 p.m.) It’s not a complete certainty just yet, but there’s snow in our Florida forecast for Thursday night, Friday and Friday night.

The National Weather Service gives us up to an 80 percent chance of precipitation  during the period. It may be rain. Or sleet. Or Snow. Or a big ole wintry mix. The weather service said “it is currently beyond the state of the science to pinpoint exact snowfall totals because it is too far out in the time prior to the event and many uncertainties remain”.

Here is your official North Escambia area forecast:

  • This Afternoon: Mostly sunny, with a high near 49. North wind between 5 and 15 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.
  • Tonight: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 25. North wind around 5 mph becoming calm.

    I dont want to rain on your parade but due to global warming dont expect snow on friday. Also realize that every scientific model has its glitches and this winter has been the mother of all glitches for us global warmists. Al Gore….over and out.

    WOW! Guess we’re back to the freezing weather once again (Geez thanks groundhog, lol…) Wonder if it will really snow this time and wonder if it does will the schools be closed on Friday, since people around here are not use to driving on snow condition roads…
