Yeah, I had about a good quick 2-3 minute light snow/ flurries burst yesterday morning at my home in north Jacksonville. It was a nice pleasant novelty to see the flakes on Christmas weekend.
Had a low temp this morning of 26.6 degrees. Tonight will be colder as the pressure gradient relaxes as that very potent winter storm off the New England coast late this morning moves farther away. Expecting lows tonight in my area in the lower 20s.
This December is the coldest ever on record here in Jacksonville. This morning made it 16 freezes officially at the NWS office just a few mles from where I live. Amazing when you consider that the average total number of freezes in the winter season in Jacksonville is 18. It has been quite an extreme cold pattern for sure thanks to our persistent negative NAO.
Good news is that after Wednesday, it looks that we will get a welcomed reprieve from old man winter with a nice warm-up. Temps will be well into the 70s by this upcoming New Year's holiday weekend. It doesn't appear that no significant arctic air intrusions will be invading the Eastern CONUS at least up until the mid-part of next week.

NEVER, EVER SAY NEVER in the tropics and weather in general, and most importantly, with life itself!!
