Snowfall in Florida - Will this verify? (Winter Storm Enzo)
JesseLikesWeather:
My move from Maryland to Florida brought me with expectations: Don't expect any snowfall for a winter season, but I forgot something: It can still happen, you just got to have the right things in place.
I open my local NWS forecast to find: Snow? I didn't immediately get my hopes up. I looked at weather forecast models, they seemed to have agreed that a potential snowfall event could be coming to the Panhandle.
Though this is quite some time out, I am creating this topic to see how the forecast evolves :-)
