We're expecting another burst of chillier air as a second cold front arrives early in the week. This front will bring widespread 50s by Tuesday morning, with the chilly temperatures continuing into Wednesday.

The return of La Niña this winter will likely lead to a warmer and drier than normal winter season in South Florida. The La Niña pattern refers to the periodic cooling of ocean surface temperatures in the central and east-central equatorial Pacific, which occurs, on average, every 3 to 5 years. La Niña winters are typically characterized by a northern jet stream, which leads to low pressure systems tracking across the Northern half of the United States – keeping storms far away from Florida.
