Warm Weekend, Cold Front Ahead

Monday morning lows are forecast to be in the upper 40s, with highs reaching the upper 60s, accompanied by mostly cloudy skies.
Snow Showers Possible in the Florida Panhandle
The interaction of moisture and colder air as the front passes through is predicted to bring snow showers to the Florida Panhandle on Sunday morning. These showers are expected to stretch from Panama City to Pensacola and into Southern Georgia.
What to Expect Next
If the cold front tracks as currently predicted, residents in the Panhandle and Southern Georgia should prepare for potentially hazardous travel conditions Sunday morning due to snow showers.
