Cold Weather for the Area

Yes, it is fairly cool out there now and will be cold when we wake up on Thursday morning. At this time it looks as if we may flirt with freezing temperatures along the east coast. My forecast for the Pompano area is 45F tonight, high on Wednesday 66F and a low Thursday morning of 36F. Areas further west and north will be cooler.

A Freeze Watch is in effect for Thursday morning for the western half of Broward and all of Palm Beach county, except the immediate coastal areas.

On another note tomorrow is Thunderstorm and Tornado Awareness Day. There will be a state wide tornado drill. Here is the time line for the test:

8:30AM - Test Tornado Watch issued for the entire state.
10:10AM - Test Tornado Warning will be issued.
10:30AM - Drill will end with an "all clear" being announced.

I will post tomorrow with an update on Thursday morning's low and any news of the severe weather drill. Also my Twitter will be updated throughout the day for short updates and changes to watches and warnings.

Stay warm!
