Brrr! Coldest air of the season so far arrives in South Florida
MIAMI - A blast of Arctic air that has brought dangerously cold conditions to much of the country is arriving in South Florida.
South Floridians will wake up Saturday morning after an overnight low of temperatures in the 40s.
Chief meteorologist Ivan Cabrera said wind chills will make it feel much colder with temperatures in the mid- to upper 30s in some areas.
A Wind Chill advisory is in effect from 2 a.m. until 10 a.m. for inland portions of Broward county.
The CBS4 NEXT Weather team has also declared an "Alert Day" for Saturday due to the extremely cold temperatures and wind chills. Highs will struggle to reach 60 degrees during the day on Christmas Eve. "Noche Buena" evening will be chilly with the low to mid 50s.
