I heard from my father that it snowed one time in the 70's. Do you know if that is true? Or is it possible that it could snow here again?
I'm a floridiam by the way...

Yes it does snow in florida, about every 7 years or so we get some. Back in the early 70's snow was seen as far south as miami, yes miami. In 1989 I personally watched snow fall in December in Tampa. In March 1996 snow was seen in the Daytona area and even managed to stick to the ground in Jacksonville. In 2002-03, the 70 days without hitting 70 produced a few cases of flurries in north florida but not much else.

On 1977 January 19, it snowed in Miami and its suburbs, and it snowed in Freeport in the Bahamas. Central and northern Florida get snow more frequently, and there was a 12-inch snowstorm in Jacksonville in the past decade or two. I remember the 1977 snow. I heard about it in the newspaper. I was in southern Pennsylvania, where snow 18 inches deep fell, and the temperature fell to 6 degrees below zero. People were concerned about another ice age coming. The question is whether it can snow any more in Florida with global warming. And although huge amounts of snow fell in what is now Jacksonville in the Ice Ages, none fell in the Miami area, which was inland, because it was a barren desert.

Well in the past several years, New Orleans, and places in Arabia got the first recorded snow ever, and for Arabia that is a long time. If is has not snowed in Florida, it may soon.

It was all melted away by about 10am, but it DID snow here in Daytona one night back in 1977. A few years ago I remember seeing flurries in Jacksonville. So, Florida does get snow, just not very frequently.

Yes it has happened. It snowed in Miami in 1985. (In July.) Yes, it is very possible that it could happen again.
