Has it ever snow in Florida?

Answer 1

The simple answer is "Yes." However, it depends on what you mean by "snowed." If you mean a couple of snowflakes falling for about 15-20 minutes and melting before they hit the ground then, yes, it has snowed, in various parts of Florida, over the years. But if you mean a 6-foot deep snowdrift with snowfall continuing the whole day and /or night for several days/nights, in a row, well, no, that has never happened in Florida and most probably never will.

Answer 2

Yes it has. Of course, the farther south one goes, the less likely it is to have snow anytime. However, even just a couple of months ago (in November 2006) it was snowing in Florida. It was Florida's first November snowfall since 1912 when Tallahassee received flurries on Nov. 27-28, WKMG-TV in Orlando reported.

Although the official weather station for Miami did not record the snowfall, it did snow in nearby Homestead, Florida in January 1977. Jacksonville, Florida (in Northeastern Florida) had a white Christmas in 1989. The last time central Florida saw snow was in 2003, when flakes fell over Brevard and Volusia counties. The Florida Panhandle area got a dusting around Christmas 2004.

Answer 3

Of course. Snow is not unusual in North Florida. Snow has been recorded as far south as Miami Beach! This only occured once in the 1970's. I forget which year.

Yeah, I lived there in the late 70's and it snowed in Orlando. Froze all of my plants on the veranda.
