ORLANDO, Fla. —
As people on social media and beyond speculate about the intensity of an incoming cold front, WESH 2 meteorologists are dispelling any rumors of a historic winter event in Central Florida.
“If you see anybody posting that it’s going to snow in Central Florida during the month of January, let’s slow it down a little bit,” First Warning meteorologist Eric Burris said.
Long-rage computer models are indicating that a big arctic chill will move into the state around Jan. 11 — and a few indicate a slim chance for snow. However, Burris says this has caused some “hype” that isn’t exactly warranted.
“One or two model runs have hinted at a nonzero chance of snow, at like a one or two percent chance,” he said. “It’s fun to joke around, but remember, computer models are guidance, not gospel.”
