Tallahassee, Florida – Temperatures and wind chills are expected to drop into the low 20s overnight, prompting a Freeze Warning for the Tallahassee area and surrounding counties.
According to the US National Weather Service in Tallahassee, a Hard Freeze Warning is in effect for southeast Alabama and southwest Georgia through Tuesday morning. A Cold Weather Advisory remains in place for Florida counties, including the eastern Florida Panhandle and the Big Bend region.
Forecasters say temperatures could fall as low as 23 degrees, with wind chills reaching approximately 20 degrees in some areas. The alert is expected to remain in effect until 9 a.m. EST (8 a.m. CST) Tuesday.
Officials urge residents to protect people, pets, plants, and pipes from freezing conditions. Prolonged exposure to subfreezing temperatures can damage plumbing and pose health risks, particularly for vulnerable populations.
The advisory affects much of North Florida, where early morning commuters and students may encounter dangerously cold conditions before sunrise.
Residents are encouraged to wear warm clothing and take precautions before heading outdoors Tuesday morning. Updates are available through the National Weather Service Tallahassee office.
