Winter Weather in Escambia Coastal, Florida

Storm total snow amounts of 0.25 in Ferry Pass and a trace in Pensacola.

An extremely rare early season snow event occurred across the central Gulf coast late in the day on the 8th into the morning of the 9th. An area of low pressure moved northeast off the Gulf and as the low moved east and pulled a cold air mass into the area, rain changed to a mix and eventually all snow. It was the earliest snow event ever recorded in the area. Inland sections of the western Florida panhandle received from near a trace to as much 2 inches of snow.
