| Wee bit of white stuff in Orlando, Fla.
ORLANDO, Fla. - There was hardly a run on snow shovels, but a few flakes of the white stuff hit the ground in Orlando for the first time since 2003, meteorologists said.
The flakes mixed with rain fell Tuesday night in the central Florida hometown of Walt Disney World, National Weather Service meteorologist John Pendergrast said.
"It's just cold enough in the lower levels of the atmosphere" to keep the flakes from melting, he said.
The last time the region saw snow was in 2003, when flakes fell over Brevard and Volusia counties.
Temperatures in the area Tuesday night dipped to the low 40s, with cold weather in the area expected through Thanksgiving.
