Rare Chance of Light Snow Targets Florida Panhandle Overnight Into Sunday

Forecasters cite a brief window created by Arctic air interacting with Gulf moisture, with little accumulation expected.

Overview

  • National Weather Service guidance keeps a low but real risk for a wintry mix or light snow in northern Florida during the Saturday night to Sunday morning period.
  • The highest odds are in the interior Panhandle north of a DeFuniak SpringsTifton line, with Tallahassee highlighted for potential flakes or sleet.
  • Any precipitation window is expected to be short, generally one to three hours as the front moves through early Sunday.
  • Accumulations, if any, should be minimal, with CBS estimates near 0.3 inch in Tallahassee and measurable snow probabilities roughly 10%–30% including adjacent parts of Alabama and Georgia.
  • Leon County has opened cold-weather shelters as a precaution, and meteorologists advise monitoring NWS updates because small shifts could change rain, sleet, or snow outcomes.
