It’s sure to be the talk of the town next week when (if) north Florida gets a band of snowfall that will undoubtedly do 3 things:
- shout down the city
- kids everywhere will be looking for hills to slide down on a garbage can lid
- Parents will be pulling their hair out by the end of the day
I’ve been in north Florida for a few years now, using it as a home base for my travels. The last time it snowed in the state capital (Tallahassee) was 2018 according to a quick Google search. A significant amount of snow was way back in 1989 (over 1 inch of snow).
Needless to say, it will probably amount to a lot of hype but not the landmark event it’s getting attention for today, about 4 days before the event is allegedly going to happen. But if it does, that will be pretty wild. I’ve never taken my camper to a snowy area and if the forecast is accurate, the snow might come to me! Either way, the temperature at the middle of next week has a low in the high 20s so that’s sure to be fun.
Maybe it’s time for a quick trip south but exactly how far south do I need to go in Florida to feel that pleasant warmth again in January? Plus, I’m training for an upcoming duathlon and snow has the perfect texture for running. 🤭
