The National Weather Service Melbourne warned frost is possible Saturday and Sunday nights, mainly in wind-protected, rural inland areas across East Central Florida.
A few counties are planning on opening cold-weather shelters as a cold front moves through.
“A cold front moving through the South during the latter part of the week will push temperatures below historical averages throughout the Florida Peninsula in time for the new year,” according to AccuWeather.
In Miami, low temperatures are expected to drop into the upper 50s over the weekend, including on New Year’s Eve. The city’s historical average low temperature at this time of the year is 62, according to AccuWeather.
Summary of Florida weather forecast Thursday, Friday
A cold front moving across Florida Thursday could bring patchy frost and gusty winds and rain to the state as 2023 comes to a close, according to the Florida Division of Emergency Management.
Widespread rainfall is expected across the state into Thursday afternoon before drier and cooler conditions arrive overnight. Breezy wind gusts of 25-30 mph could affect South Florida and the Keys.
Panhandle: Near to below freezing temperatures are expected across the western Panhandle. Temperatures could feel like they’re in the middle to upper 20s across the Panhandle Thursday night and Friday morning
Patchy frost could develop along the far western Panhandle overnight and early Friday morning. Temperatures will feel as if they are in the middle to upper 20s across the western Panhandle and low to middle 30s across the eastern Panhandle and Big Bend.
Peninsular Florida: Breezy wind gusts upward of 25-30 mph will develop through Thursday morning and into the afternoon as the center of the system moves onshore. Moisture associated with the front will help to bring 1 to 2 inches of rainfall across South Florida and the Keys through today.
Low temperatures in the upper 40s to low 50s can be expected through the northern Peninsula and interior Central Florida, while coastal areas will see slightly warmer temperatures in the middle 50s. Low temperatures across South Florida and the Keys will fall into the upper 50s to low 60s.
Will it get cold enough for iguanas to fall from trees?
Probably not.
Iguanas are known to thrive in Florida’s warm climate, and they like to sleep in trees. When temperatures hit the 40s, that slows them down or immobilizes them. They stiffen up and lose their grip on branches. The paralysis effect is only temporary and they recover as soon as it warms up.
Green iguanas appear to be established in much of Central and South Florida, including the Keys, according to the University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences.

Green iguana populations now stretch along the Atlantic Coast in Broward, Martin, Miami-Dade, Monroe and Palm Beach counties and along the Gulf Coast in Collier and Lee counties, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
Their northern range is limited by cold temperatures.
